“Hi Jonathan , look up the Flexner report … ( how the rockefellers hijacked the medical industry by pushing textbooks in colleges, criminalizing all sorts of other sound medical practices , by way of grants to hospitals and colleges ) all for profit.

“I adore JVN and want to listen to what they have to say. I was pumped when I saw they had a podcast with general curiosity as the angle. However I found the podcast itself to be pretty meh. I think the podcast structure is meant to be pretty free flowing but I found it super hard to follow. JVN...”Read full review »

“Jonathan is so authentic and really is the epitome of what a journalist is, someone who’s not afraid to ask tough questions, sensitive to others’ lived experience, and brings their own insight to the table. At the same time, Jonathan is funny, 100% true to their self, and unapologetic. I say MEH...”Read full review »

“I live for Jonathan's interviews. I have been listening since the beginning and the episode of “Is Romance Dead “ MOVED me. As a bi woman married to a Cis white male it really made me think of all the gender roles that we fall into but can and DO alter in this day and age it left me hopeful....”Read full review »
