Hello, I'm Greg Jenna and good news, Your Dead to Me is back for a new series. Here we go. Yes, we'll explore Emperor Nero's notorious reign with Professor Marybeard and Patton Oswald. I would not want my daughter having the remote control, not alone an empire. We'll dissect the decadent life of Philippe Duke-Dor-Leon with Tom Allen. I've often tried to pretend I'm an aristocrat and being very quickly knocked down.

And there'll be so much more with comedians like Olga Koch, Mike Mosniak and Ria Lina.

I'm excited.

You're dead to me, the comedy podcast that takes history seriously.

twice as many as in the mid-90s.

It's a trend that's been accelerated by the burgeoning number of guidelines and a population that's living longer and developing multiple health issues,

all of which have their unique treatment pathway.

But how do all these different medicines interact?

To help doctors optimise care for the millions of people receiving different drugs for different health problems,

the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence is about to release yet more guidance.

Only this is a bit different from what's gone before.
