Published: June 7, 2020, 9:11 p.m.

Maurice Shaw is caring, diligent pharmacist who happens to do REALLY funny comedy about the challenges and joys of retail pharmacy. So why would Walgreens fire him? The answer cuts to the heart of the soul-sucking dehumanization that corporate medicine can be.\n\nWe talk about the catharsis of comedy, pharmacist burnout and understaffing, what a pharmacy tech does, how his comedy was always cool with his bosses until it suddenly wasn't, his community work and background, what it's like being Black in healthcare and the dynamics of working in minority areas, and much more. \n\nMaurice's YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJxgBb1L7sUcwLwZdsyimtg/featured?view_as=subscriber\n\nLinks and more: https://zdoggmd.com/maurice-shaw\n\nYour support makes what we do possible!
