13. Is Big Pharma hiding the cure for cancer? With Kat Arney

This week’s episode asks a question that over a quarter of Americans believe to be true. That’s right, 1 in 4 Americans believe that Big Pharma; a cabal of evil corporations, dodgy physicians and sneaky regulators, has actually found a cure for cancer, but is keeping schtum to make money. But is this really true? To separate the truth from the nonsense, this week James and Jol are joined by science writer and broadcaster Kat Arney. Kat is perfectly placed to settle the score on Big Pharma, having worked at Cancer Research UK for 12 years. In a wide-ranging conversation that covers bleach, dyslexic mice, and eye-watering sums of money, James, Jol and Kat tackle Big Pharma head on, leaving no conspiracy-shaped stone unturned. Kat Arney is the author of Rebel Cell: Cancer, Evolution and the Science of Life. This episode was recorded before the announcement of the passing of HRH Elizabeth II. Once a week with us not enough?
