Out of Patients with Matthew Zachary - Podcast

Out of Patients with Matthew Zachary

Out of Patients with Matthew Zachary is the longest-running, independent healthcare podcast. 

Since 2007, Matthew’s been calling out the hypocrisy, hubris, and hostage-taking baked into American healthcare—with a mic in one hand and a middle finger in the other. 

What started as a pirate radio rebellion is now the most trusted, notorious, and unfiltered show in the game. Patients love it. Industry listens. And anyone who’s ever been gaslit by the system knows exactly where to turn to nod their heads in shared rage.

Every episode delivers unsanitized stories, dark humor, policy takedowns, and angsty GenX truth bombs—told by the people living it, not spinning it.

It’s the show you love about the healthcare you hate.
