Matthew Zachary: The only thing that’s ever changed anything in healthcare is advocacy.

Matthew Zachary, an American advocate, Entertainer and Speaker recently posted on LinkedIn:

“WHOA.

OffScrip Health’s flagship series The Cancer Mavericks: A History of Survivorship won Podcast Of The Year during the CineHealth Film and Video Awards at this year’s Digital Pharma East!

A labor of love 18 months in the making — and endorsed by Ken Burns — Mavericks is a stunning 8-part narrative audio series about the people, not the disease. It is our story.

Learn how the Black Panthers became breast cancer advocates and how a $250,000 full-page ad in the NY Times shamed President Nixon into giving a damn about cancer. And how 50 years of social justice movements have brought us into today’s conversations about healthcare, income inequality, and race relations.

On behalf of Andrew MacDowell, Executive Producer Steve Lickteig, and our entire production team and contributors responsible for bringing this groundbreaking historical narrative series to life, we express our sincere gratitude for this extraordinary recognition.

The only thing that’s ever changed anything in healthcare is advocacy.

So, if you’re a narrative history podcast junkie, check out The Cancer Mavericks wherever you get your podcasts.”
