WYPR: Maryland Morning with Sheilah Kast Podcast show

Summary: Maryland is busy building an online marketplace where people could choose from different options--a “health benefit exchange.” We talk about the progress the state is making with Jay Hancock, and with outgoing Howard County health secretary Peter Beilenson, who's co-op will be competing on the exchange. When you think therapy, you may not think plants--but Cate Murphy does. She's the founder of Talmar Gardens in Baltimore County, which focuses on providing horticultural therapy for people with both mental and physical illnesses. Tom Hall and J. Wynn Rousuck review "Wicked" at the Hippodrome. The social media profiles of millenials are full of adoration for old school products and lifestyles--gardening, fixed gear bicycles...cassette tapes?! We go analog with our social media gurus Nathan Jurgenson and P.J. Rey and try and figure out why the high-tech generation has gone low-tech.
