MEDICAL GASLIGHTING: Stories of confusion and missed answers

from Yalla Habibi · host Scott and Shelby

We unpack the unspoken GP problem this week, from the god-complex that never admits fault to appointments that somehow leave you more confused than when you walked in. Scott and Shelby share their own experiences with dismissive explanations, lost forms, missing results, and the frustration of being talked around instead of talked to, while we explore how conflicting medical advice and gatekeeping receptionists can quietly erode trust. In “Scott’s WTF of the Week” we react to a story that raises uncomfortable questions about what really happens when things go wrong far from land, while “Shelby’s Good Vibes Only” reminds us how thoughtful design and a bit of tech can open up entire worlds to people who have too often been left out.Chapters(01:26) – Our Dream Guest(04:24) – The GP Problem(26:00) – Scott’s WTF of the Week: Royal Caribbean Accused of Stuffing Dead Passenger in Refrigerator(30:15) – Shelby’s Good Vibes Only: Breaking Boundaries: Headsets Bringing Cricket to Partially Sighted FansScott's WTF of the Week🚢 Royal Caribbean Accused of Stuffing Dead Passenger in Refrigerator📅 Wednesday 10th December 2025🔗 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://nypost.com/2025/12/10/lifestyle/experts-reveal-how-cruise-ships-deal-with-dead-bodies-amid-royal-caribbean-wrongful-death-suit/Shelby’s Good Vibes Only🎧 Breaking Boundaries: Headsets Bringing Cricket to Partially Sighted Fans 📅 Monday 15th December 2025🔗 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.positive.news/lifestyle/sport/tech-opens-cricket-to-blind-and-partially-sighted-fans/Recommended EpisodesCheck out these other episodes, they dive into similar stories and topics.⁠⁠⁠🎧EP5 | Airport Hell, Durian Tasting, Condom Conundrum & Shelbys BIG Problem | Couples Podcast🎧EP51 | Laser Herpes, Instagram Battle & Advertisement Scandal | Yalla Habibi Podcast---------------------------------------------------------------SubscribeIf you have ever enjoyed any of these episodes, could we ask you to please consider any or all of these: Subscribe, Follow, Like, Share and leave a short Review?
