  • How Society Shapes Health

    How Society Shapes Health
    Jan 26 2026

    Dr. Alexis Paton and Sir Andrew Goddard start with a simple question that turns out to be anything but:

    What is health?


    Our premiere episode sets the season’s foundation: exploring how society and the world we live in quietly shapes our health — long before a doctor or hospital visit.

    You’ll hear why:

    • misinformation and “wellness culture” are impossible to ignore
    • health means different things to different people
    • prevention is always underfunded — and why
    • inequality, housing, food, and policy matter more than we admit

    This is a big-picture conversation about how health actually works, and why fixing it requires more than medicine.


    Upcoming episodes explore housing, food, climate change, misinformation, and patient safety.
