Episode 40 - Health Care Debate




Lebowski Podcast show

Summary: Since President Obama was elected into office as the 44th president of the United States of America, he has been pushing for Congress to enact health care reform for the American people. In March of 2010, a health care reform bill (H.R. 4872) was passed by a narrow margin. Leading up to this historic vote and after, there have been many heated discussions and debates over the value and even legality of this new legislation. This month we tried to understand this issue by discussing it through the characters of The Big Lebowski. We have a new segment titled Dude Thoughts with Tom where Tom Esterline "phones in" and chats about what's going on in his life. He shares some Dude dos and don'ts, along with ideas about how to best achieve at Achieverdom. Tune in next month to hear our interview with Phill Wells who created Dudesong, an epic poem version of The Big Lebowski.
