Doc Danny tells us how to know and how to find a brilliant practitioner like himself. [38:31] Joe gets Danny’s professional opinion on crepitus…which is that weird bubble wrap thing that happens when you squat sometimes. What is it? Is it a big deal or not? [40:50] It’s not often a Doctor of Physical Therapy gets a chance for a mic drop, but at [40:50] in Episode #55 Doc Danny Mata pulls it off with a massive knowledge bomb.
