Dr. Stewart, Terence and Jasper tackle healthcare and the rising cost of food. Teen mental health is on a steady decline - pre-pandemic. Needless to say, COVID didn't help. What are the factors? How can we be more mindful of what our kids are going through? How do we know it's more than a mood? There is also movement afoot in the House to abate the sometimes staggering cost for the over 7 million American who are insulin-dependent and the 1 in 4 who have taken to rationing their insulin. The panel is joined by Shelby County Health Department Health Officer Dr. Bruce Randolph as they discuss the impact on our most vulnerable citizens. Lastly, we are joined by Dr. Andrew Muhammad from the University of Tennessee's Institute of Agriculture to talk about the rising cost of food, which is compounded - and perhaps caused by - the rising cost of gas. He shares his expertise and personal experience on the global supply chain, high level causations before dovetailing into pre-existing conditions and mitigating impact in our more micro communities. Tune in for a very enlightening show!
