Grumpy Old Geeks, a weekly talk show hosted by Brian Schulmeister and Jason DeFilippo, discussing the finer points of what went wrong on the internet and who's to blame.

Welcome to Grumpy Old Geeks, I am Jason DeFilippo.

And I'm Brian Schulmeister. Hello Jason, you're here now.

I am, I am in Los Angeles.

And I swear to God, the amount of Prius is on the road has tripled since I left.

I now throw a bunch of birds into the mix, good times.

So this is why I always used to stay at home when I lived in LA and now I'll probably be doing the same again.

All right, well, you were busy driving across country and I was busy dealing with the healthcare industry.

Listen up Silicon Valley. You want to disrupt something, you want to be useful, you want to stop with these stupid scooters and actually do something that matters.

disrupt the damn healthcare industry.

Haven't fun with that?

No, no, not at all. You know, I mean, I'm very happy and I'm grateful.

My father is fine. He is not under any threat of death or anything. He's there.

He's 100% there mentally, but he is in need of physical therapy and he's not mobile.

And according to the healthcare industry, he is not doing well enough to stay in a facility and he's not doing poorly enough to stay in a facility.

Nice.

And let me tell you, it is impossible to get any answers out of anyone in terms of what's covered, what isn't covered, what can happen next.

This is all such a scam. Like health insurance is one thing when you're young and reasonably healthy and you're going to the doctor because you know,

you've got some sort of herpes or whatever and you just go and they give you a salve and you leave and that's that.

And but when you get older, man, this is you need healthcare and stuff gets serious.
