After slowly backing away from this website for a while, I'm no longer actively here. Changes to how the site works, plus the quality of the dialog among those who remain active here, mean it's no longer useful to me. Get in touch via the contact info on my website, in my bio.

If you'll give me one last moment on my soapbox: I remain very worried about what years of existing on sites like this has done to us, societally and individually.

So great to see NPR-distributed station podcasts on Podtrac's Top 25 New Podcasts of 2024 (by average downloads per episode) - WFAE’s Landslide at #21 and KUOW’s Lost Patients at #24 analytics.podtrac.com/top-new-podcas…

Somehow, amid a sea of blood-soaked schlock, our deeply-reported podcast about the mental health system is one of the most downloaded new shows of 2024. Really proud of the whole team behind Lost Patients for showing what podcasts can still achieve. analytics.podtrac.com/top-new-podcas…

It's been really rewarding to collaborate with @ReportingHealth these past few years. Like I say in the video, the issues health journalists cover are some of the most complex and polarizing in our society, and it's important we have institutions for sharing acquired knowledge.

"Lost Patients," a podcast by The Seattle Times and KUOW, is featured as one of Apple Podcasts' 10 "Shows We Love" for 2024. st.news/4i9xTLd

Congratulations to the @throughlineNPR & @KUOW “Lost Patients” teams, featured by applepodcasts as a Shows We Love pick for 2024!!! Listen now on @ApplePodcasts Podcasts! 🎧

Glad to be part of this video tribute to @ReportingHealth on its 20th anniversary. Support from this center is what allowed me to make Outsiders in 2020, and steered my career in a new direction focused on serial podcasts and health journalism. centerforhealthjournalism.org/about/history

Our Spotlight pick dives deep into the world of mental healthcare, with detailed investigative reporting, gripping storytelling, and captivating interviews with patients, families, and advocates. From @KUOW, @SeattleTimes & @NPR, this is Lost Patients. apple.co/LostPatients

Honored that @ApplePodcasts has picked Lost Patients for its "Spotlight" feature, which highlights different podcast creators each month. Thrilled that more listeners will be able to discover this reporting: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/los…

I'm excited to share that this latest episode of @reveal is a collaboration with our podcast Lost Patients. It's been an honor to collaborate with my buddy @Jib821, who produced this episode, to bring these stories to radio stations and podcast listeners across the country.

More than four months (!) after our launch, Lost Patients is still one of the top documentary podcasts in the country. If you haven't listened yet, hear the story of why so many people in psychosis are left to wander the streets of American cities.

@seanrobinson1e4 I'm in shock. This is such a loss for journalism, for Tacoma, for everyone who had the pleasure of knowing Matt.

We love you, Matt. I am broken. thenewstribune.com/news/local/art…

@block_m3 Thanks so much for listening, Brandon

I have found Lost Patients (a @KUOW podcast) to be harrowing, balanced, and deeply moving. Each episode unfolds the story of a severely mentally ill person in the Seattle area who fell through society’s cracks. Each episode is a (unfortunately) refreshing departure from the

@nethornk Hello. The model @esmyjimenez talked about at the event is called Soteria. Esmy also referenced this episode of @NPRinvisibilia: npr.org/programs/invis…

If you missed our Lost Patients live event last month, we've just dropped a recording into the podcast feed. We reflected on the podcast, answered listener questions, and talked about solutions with people who have experienced psychosis and clinicians: npr.org/2026/01/01/124…
