Boxing Day Reviews -- Bill Murray & Jan Vogler

 

One of my favorite things to enjoy after the holidays is listening to Bill Murray and world-renowned cellist Jan Vogler. Luckily, they teamed up for the album New Worlds.Bill Murray is known for picking projects that many would not expect of him. While this album is no different, I will say – who knew he could carry a tune?New World first dropped in 2017 and uses multiple music mediums. While the album includes a few classical songs from composers like Bach, the overall sound is transformed by Murray's voice and Vogler on the cello. The song list takes a unique turn into film themes like “Moon River”, that play as a backdrop to Murray reciting excerpts from “Adventures of Huckleberry Finn”. Finally, the album takes another hard turn into Broadway show tunes from the likes of “West Side Story” and “Porgy and Bess”.This album is always a thrill for me to listen to after the holidays because it feels like attending the theater while on winter vacation, but within the comfort of my own home... and it has Bill Murray in it!

We reached out to the writer/submitter and got this info back...hope it's helpful. PBM: Pharmacy Benefit Managers are pharmacies that are owned by insurance companies. (CVS is one.) They negotiate with drug makers to get reduced pricing for medications, but they historically have not passed along those savings to patients. https://www.ftc.gov/system/files/ftc_gov/pdf/pharmacy-benefit-managers-staff-report.pdf MFN: Most Favored Nation pricing is a policy that means a country agrees to offer the same trade concessions (like tariffs or price reductions) to all member nations of the World Trade Organization (WTO). When applied to pharmaceuticals, it could disrupt global access, deter innovation, and obscure the deeper systemic issues in American health care. https://petrieflom.law.harvard.edu/2025/05/22/the-global-risks-of-americas-most-favored-nation-drug-pricing-policy/Comment publication date: 6/23/25, 7:47 AMComment source: L E T T E R TO THE EDITOR
