Over-the-counter hearing aids are coming soon

The FDA announced yesterday that it’s clearing the way for a new category of hearing aids, that people with mild or moderate hearing loss can buy over the counter without an exam, fitting, or prescription. This is huge news for the millions of Americans who currently struggle to access or pay for hearing aids in America, which usually cost thousands of dollars. Plus, the Afghans still left behind, one year after US withdrawal. And, money to fuel Liz Cheney’s next chapter. Guests: Axios' Tina Reed and Stef Kight.
