- A new coalition of AIDS activists takes on the American medical establishment, pushing for access to clinical trials and experimental drugs.
From the co-creators of Slow Burn, Fiasco is a narrative podcast that transports listeners into the day-to-day reality of America’s most pivotal historical events. Using original interviews with dozens of key players, host Leon Neyfakh brings to life the forgotten twists and turns of the past while shedding light on the present day. The new season of Fiasco goes deep on the AIDS epidemic in America, with a special focus on the early years of the crisis, when a diagnosis was tantamount to a death sentence. The eight-part series looks at the mystery and missteps around identifying and treating a new, contagious disease, and what it took to get the public -and the government- to care.

I lost my best male friend in 1983. Love you, Reid Owens.
I'm sorry to read about your friend losing his life to this hideous disease. May he rest in peace and may all whom cared about him find peace too. With love from Ontario Canada 💜
Always remember him and mention his name.
No you didn’t.
Kramer was outspoken, but he got things done.
The guy was an idiot and partly responsible for the HIV scam.
Act up. Fight back. Fight Aids.
Larry Kramer was not only a legend, but, a hero.
We couldn't have said this better! 🔥 🙌
40 plus years later, and there is no cure.
And your point is what?? There are many diseases been around a lot longer (cancer most notably) with no definitive cure.. the most interesting and possibly least known I’ve learned from this episode is the fact women and people of colour were discriminated against with benefits and drug trials because their symptoms may have differed from male gay or heterosexual symptoms on the approval list…just so wrong
I lost a lovely friend, I’ll call him RT -who moved to Chicago soon after he was diagnosed…and since it was before the age of cellphones, I didn’t get a chance to say good-bye. His partner sent me a lovely letter letting me know…I think of him so often. He was charming, lovely and taught me how to ballroom dance.
Too many lives lost due to slow government actions, and fear… way too much fear. 😢
Thank you for this podcast. It’s well done.
I'm sorry your friend died because of this hideous disease. May he rest in peace and may all whom cared about him find peace too. With love from Ontario, Canada 💜
and no vaccine. With COVID-19, we got a vaccine within a year or a little more.
Cure has been here all along. D-32 gene. Scientists have known about D-32 gene since 80s, 90s
The trees with bark that killed the hiv pathogen were de-rooted bulldozed destroyed.
Infuriating millions have suffered n died n continue to Unnecessarily.
The book “Never silent” by Peter Staley really captures the climate of the early crisis/ protests. Fantastic read!
