From Talkocast Studios comes "Delay, Deny, Depose" - an investigation into the December 4th assassination of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson. What began as a precisely planned murder outside the New York Hilton Midtown - complete with shell casings inscribed with a haunting message - has exposed the dark intersection of artificial intelligence, corporate healthcare, and human desperation.
In the wake of Brian Thompson's murder, thousands of Americans begin sharing their devastating experiences with UnitedHealthcare's automated denial system. From a mother watching her partner die while waiting for clinical trial approval, to families bankrupted by "medically unnecessary" denials, to a Staten Island mother told her daughter could "switch to Medicaid if she dies" - this episode reveals the human cost of algorithmic healthcare decisions.
Through verified testimonies and documented cases, we expose how UnitedHealthcare's profits soared to $16 billion while patients fought, and sometimes lost, battles for basic care. These are the voices that emerged after Thompson's death - stories that transform statistics into human tragedy and raise disturbing questions about the true cost of automated healthcare denials.
