My guest today is Brennen Hodge. Brennen is the co-founder and CEO of Citizen Health, a health cooperative leveraging direct care and blockchain to build a better healthcare system. He's an expert on everything related to healthcare.

In this conversation, we talk about the US healthcare system's problems, but we try to focus on the solutions. Brennen explains how Citizen Health is targeting the problem through a better ownership model. Brennen also gives the best books to understand the US healthcare system from an outsider's perspective. We finish the conversation talking about his latest project to date, XBuilt, an engineering company developing zero energy-smart homes.
