Uniquely American: Medical Debt
<p>In this episode of Uniquely American Problems we’re covering the topic of medical debt. Who has it, why is it an issue, and what can we do about it?</p> <p>Folks in the US owe around $195 billion in medical debt. 16 million people have over $1,000 in medical debt and 3 million people owe over $10,000 in medical debt. I know that’s a lot of numbers - just know it’s a big group of people that owe a decent chunk of change. While we hear in the episode this kind of debt is treated differently than say an overdue credit card, it still is a burden that can negatively impact a variety of other financial decisions.</p> <p>In this episode, we chat with Jack Daily, Attorney for the Legal Aid Society of San Diego to see how he and his team tackle the issue day in and day out.</p>

Uniquely American Crisis: Misinformation
<p>In this episode of Uniquely American Problems we’re covering the hot topic of Misinformation with John Silva, Senior Director of Professional and Community Learning, from the News Literacy Project.</p> <p>The News Literacy Project, is a nonpartisan education nonprofit, is building a national movement to advance the practice of news literacy throughout American society, creating better informed, more engaged and more empowered individuals — and ultimately a stronger democracy.</p> <p>We talked about the goals of misinformation, how it hooks you and how just about everyone is susceptible in falling for a false claim. We also talked about how to navigate the holidays if you’re spending time with someone who regularly shares false narratives on social media - and fun fact - that plan doesn’t include confronting them at the dinner table.</p>
