Honest and refreshing!
An honest and nuanced discussion of how the healthcare community handled the COVID-19 pandemic in Canada. In the first episode, Dr. Bonta and Dr. Chakrabarti start by delving into recent history and candidly discuss the rights and wrongs made by boots-on-the-ground clinicians and policymakers. They pull back the curtain to reveal internal conflict and disagreement among experts about many things COVID despite public perception of consensus. They point to bold claims made without evidence and even some that ran contradictory to the evidence. However, the host and his guest do not pass judgement or view the past disparagingly but instead admit to their own complicity. They discuss past mistakes made with a self-deprecating humour and through the lens of compassion. The conversation is captivating and accessible to all audiences. The essence of the dialogue highlights the self-correcting mechanism at play within modern medicine and the need to ground practice (and policy) firmly in good evidence. This type of frank discussion is refreshing for a medical podcast and can help build trust between the public and the healthcare system.

I am very excited for this new podcast. Dr. Bonta has been a great mentor and teacher for me during my medicine training at the University of Toronto. He is very knowledgable and an overall great person. I am excited to hear what he has to say on various topics in medicine.
