In the fourteenth episode of the Better Eyesight Podcast, Nathan Oxenfeld and Esther Joy van der Werf read through the fourteenth Better Eyesight magazine that was originally published in August 1920 by Dr. William H. Bates.

Exactly one hundred years later, these two natural vision teachers breathe life back into the words of Dr. Bates, and also provide some modern commentary on the topics brought up in each article.
