58 | Del Bigtree Gets a Haircut: Medical Transparency, Corporate Power, and Public Health

Published 2 months, 3 weeks ago
Description

Del Bigtree is the host of The HighWire and CEO of the nonprofit Informed Consent Action Network (ICAN), an organization known for pursuing legal action to obtain government health data. Through lawsuits and public records requests, ICAN has pushed federal agencies to release documents related to pharmaceutical oversight and regulatory decision-making.

In this episode we talk about medical transparency, public health policy, and the systems that shape modern healthcare. The conversation moves through regulatory oversight, corporate influence, environmental toxins, and the growing debate around chronic disease in children.

The conversation also touches on food systems, AI, parenting, and what it means to raise kids in a world where technology, institutions, and information are changing faster than most people can process.

Like most conversations behind the chair, it starts with a haircut and gradually opens into something much bigger.
