On today's show, Dr. Bob Gill discusses "Critical incident declared at Cambridge University Hospitals with 60 patients waiting for a bed in A&E." Every day we hear a new story about the NHS in crisis: extreme waiting lists, cancer going undiagnosed, surgeries being routinely canceled, unnecessary deaths. What is going on? A decade ago, I interviewed Dr. Gill about the NHS privatization - how far has it come? Are patients suffering as a consequence? Who is responsible? Later, David Shipley discusses a new report highlighting the horrific conditions in British prisons - what can be done to improve prison so that some prisoners can be truly rehabilitated?

GUEST 1 OVERVIEW: Bob is an NHS doctor & activist, producer, director, and co-writer of The Great NHS Reset.

GUEST 2 OVERVIEW: David has written for the Spectator UK. He says, "In my life, I've sold forklift trucks, worked in corporate finance, produced a film, and committed a fraud. During my sentence, I was horrified by the prison system I saw. I write about that and other things. I also lecture on prison, work as a prison inspector, and do the occasional media appearance."
