Holistic Health Nation
 
HHN015 Tech Help for Beginners 2
 
Part 2 of our interview with technology expert Amber MacArthur. I also talk about the FDA's call for mercury problems with dental amalgam fillings, and Bill Maher's super-cool monologue on his show last week skewering Big Pharma.  We also feature the tool PodZinger to search podcasts for spoken words.
