What happens when a patient cures himself in his garage, then builds a biotech company from scratch? You get The Breaking Brad Show — where rebellion meets research and the impossible becomes inevitable.
Hosted by Brad Burnam, founder and CEO of Turn Therapeutics, the show explores what it takes to build something that shouldn’t exist — from breakthrough cures to bold startups to movements that challenge the establishment.
Each episode dives into the world of Rebel R&D — not just research and development, but rebel and defy. You’ll meet founders, scientists, policymakers, and inventors who refused to wait for permission, funding, or precedent — and built their own way forward.
Because the future doesn’t belong to the biggest institutions.
It belongs to the people crazy enough to build the impossible — one idea, one risk, one breakthrough at a time.

In this episode, we dive into the growing trend of people turning to natural medicine, and the complexities that come with it. With the booming supplement industry and a flood of “natural” products on the market, there’s a growing need to understand the true potential—and the real risks—of integrating nature’s pharmacy into our lives.
Join us as we talk with Dr. Cassandra Quave, AKA the “Plant Hunter,” an amputee and antibiotic-resistant infection survivor who travels the world in search of cures hidden in nature. She has turned her personal journey of survival into a mission to discover plants that could become the next big breakthroughs in medicine—just as many of pharma’s biggest blockbusters once did.
From her state-of-the-art ethnobotany lab at Emory University, Dr. Quave shares her vision of bringing natural products safely into the mainstream and her tireless work to bridge the divide between traditional and Western medicine. It’s a journey into the green frontier of medicine you won’t want to miss!
