Welcome to Intelligence Squared, where great minds meet. I'm producer Mia Serenti. For this episode, we're rejoining for part two of our recent live event with palliative care doctor, author, and broadcaster, Rachel Clark. Clark joined us recently at the Kiln Theatre to discuss her women's prize-winning book, The Story of a Heart. An unforgettable exploration of compassion, family, and medical innovation.

She was in conversation with actor and comedian Rob Delaney. Now if you haven't heard part one, we recommend jumping back an episode to get up to speed. Let's rejoin the conversation live at the Kiln Theatre in London. You write about the play specialists and nurses involved in Max's care and the many small acts of kindness they performed. This is a funny question.

How crucial are they to medical outcomes, such as in Max's case? I say that's funny because I know the answer to that, because I've spent a lot of time with play specialists, but yeah, let's talk about them. Yeah, that's a very good question. So so Medicine.
