2-3 am: The Ralph Nader Radio Hour: What’s Killing Our Health? Ralph
Nader has two guests:

Ralph welcomes Dr. Nason Maani, co-editor of “The Commercial
Determinants of Health,” to explore the larger forces, forces beyond the
power of an individual to control, that shape our environment and
therefore our health. Then Chris Hedges stops by to discuss his latest
article, “Woke Imperialism” which highlights the tension between class
politics and identity politics. Plus, Ralph gives us a short take on
President Biden’s State of the Union address. Dr. Nason Maani is a
lecturer in Inequalities and Global Health Policy at the University of
Edinburgh. He is also the host of Money Power Health, a podcast on how
our health is influenced by commercial forces, wealth, and power. He is
co-editor of the new book The Commercial Determinants of Health.

Chris Hedges is a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist, who spent nearly
two decades as a foreign correspondent in Central America, the Middle
East, Africa and the Balkans. He is the host of The Chris Hedges Report,
and he is a prolific author— his latest book is The Greatest Evil Is
War.
