This week, EPPC launched our new podcast “Searching for Medicine’s Soul,” a project of EPPC’s program on Bioethics and American Democracy. Hosted by EPPC Fellow Dr. Aaron Rothstein, who will be frequently joined by EPPC Tikvah Fellow Devorah Goldman, and featuring expert guests, Searching for Medicine’s Soul explores medicine’s purpose: Why do physicians do what they do? How does the practice of medicine relate to scientific progress and human flourishing? The result is an in-depth analysis of the history and aim of medicine, and its collision with a thrilling and sometimes tragic age of discovery.
Listen to a trailer and the first episode, where EPPC Fellow Dr. Aaron Rothstein interviews EPPC Fellow Dr. Aaron Kheriaty about his career and his Covid-19 vaccine lawsuit, here or on your favorite podcast platform ([link removed]) !

The conservative majority on the Supreme Court has a host of controversial cases before them this term that could result in a fury of calls to “pack” the court with more members.

------------------------------------------------------------
By EPPC Senior Fellow Stanley Kurtz
National Review Online

South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem holds herself out as a tough-minded conservative reformer willing and able to stand up to America’s cultural elites.
