Listen "Episode 5 - Is a Cured Patient a Lost Customer (Family Guy & Real Life)"
Episode Synopsis
On This Episode: We talk about that wild episode of "Family Guy", the one called "The Old Man and the Big C." In it, Brian and Stewie go up against Carter Pewterschmidt, who actually has a real cure for cancer but keeps it hidden just to keep making money. It’s a pretty dark idea, but it makes you stop and think: do some companies really see cured patients as lost customers? The show takes this over-the-top story and kind of dares us to imagine what it would be like if big businesses cared more about profits than people’s lives. And honestly, it’s not just about healthcare, stuff like this could happen with new energy or communication tech, too, if it threatens the old ways of making money. Watching this episode really makes you wonder: how often do money and business interests get in the way of real progress? How many cool inventions or cures are being kept from us just because they might hurt someone’s bottom line? It’s a funny show, but it definitely gets you thinking about some pretty serious questions about ethics, business, and what’s really best for people.Connect with UsProudly Hosted by RedCircle: https://www.redcircle.com/tylersgrimremindersSubstack: https://tylersgrimreminders.substack.com/If you enjoyed this episode, be sure to subscribe to our podcast on your favorite platform.
