About this listen
In this episode, we sit down with our friend Deb — yes, that Deb, one of the top 100 most loved accordion players in the world — but this isn’t a story about music. Not yet.
Deb shares a deeply personal and, at times, painful journey: from a violent encounter with police to a serious fall that led to unexpected medical discoveries. Along the way, she talks openly about the uphill battle of navigating a healthcare system that’s stretched too thin — and how being prescribed opioids turned her from a patient into a suspect in the eyes of many doctors.
It’s a tough conversation, but an important one — honest, raw, and full of moments that’ll make shake your head in disbelief.
In part two, we’ll get into the joy, weirdness, and wild stories of her accordion career. But for now, this is Deb’s story of resilience — and a system that needs to do better.
