Dying With Dignity Part II May 02, 2022

Show notes

Welcome back! In true reboot fashion, we're going to talk about end of life and dying with dignity in this brand new episode. Does this description seem kind of familiar? Well it should because this is the second episode of what will be multiple episodes I want to release throughout the year regarding end of life. Western culture is really great with shying away from talking about death. Let's change that. As Marty McFly would say, "this is heavy" so please, exercise listener discretion with this series.

Show notes

This week is a bit of a blast from the past in that this interview was done in early 2020. Better now than never, right?

If you've ever been wondering about wilderness medicine, this is the episode for you. If you have no idea what wilderness medicine is, this is still the episode for you. Learn a bit more about a specialty you might not even know existed!

Thank you Bryan!

This week I have the honor of talking with one of my friends about a world I know little to nothing about aka the land of labor and delivery. Cybil is a rockstar in that world and I'm so fortunate that she took the time to chat!

N95: 98 Degrees Cover Band or Mysteriously Marvelous PPE Jul 27, 2021

Show notes

What do you get when you have two enthusiastic women talking about all things N95s? This podcast interview. Please note that it was recorded in March 2021 while I was sitting in a dark room lit up by a single candle in New Mexico. It seemed fitting to release it now as we are sliding back into comprehensive masking. (see what I did there? Fit test...N95...send help)

Let's Do This One More Time Jul 21, 2021

Show notes

Surprise y'all, bet you thought you'd heard the last out of me. Let's get to business once again and start off slow with getting this podcast restarted. I am once again joined by Nico Santos, Media Relations Guru from Donor Network of Arizona and together we're going to attempt to chip away at more misinformation and false things surrounding organ and tissue donation and how COVID has changed things. We also get into a discussion that throws Nico for a loop. Hope y'all enjoy and stay safe!

I'm All Ears Feb 08, 2021

Show notes

This week I'm back and tackling the topic truly no one asked for, ear complaints in the ER. Also mentioned is Survivor and my thoughts on the gone too soon US adaptation of the show Celebrity Splash!

FYI: This is part one of two because earwax removal deserves it's own episode. Trust me.

Don't be a jabroni, wear your mask, homie.
