Old Enough to Know Better
Wisdom earned. Sarcasm sharpened. And no topic too sacred.
From the front lines of disaster zones to the shadows of homeland security briefings, Old Enough to Know Better is not your average podcast. Hosted by longtime responder, threat analyst, author, and proud curmudgeon E.G. Weiss, this show dives headfirst into the world of emergency response, law enforcement, and national security with the unapologetic voice of someone who’s been there, done that, and probably wrote the field guide afterward.
Old Enough to Know Better
When Patients Attack
Behind every hospital curtain is a nurse, a tech, or an ER staffer trying to save a life while hoping they survive their shift.
Violence in healthcare isn’t rare anymore. It’s daily. Verbal abuse, physical assaults, biting, spitting, stalking; it’s happening in every emergency room, trauma unit, and long-term care facility in the country. In this brutally honest episode, we expose the silent epidemic that healthcare workers have been enduring for far too long.
From drug-induced rage to underfunded hospitals, we break down the causes, the coverups, and the consequences. We’ll talk about why healthcare professionals are four times more likely to be assaulted at work, why no one’s talking about it, and what can, and must, be done to stop it.
This isn’t a “bad day at work” story. This is a systemic failure to protect those who protect us.
Listen now, and then ask yourself: If nurses aren’t safe… who is?
