“I was alerted to this pod from another listen to. I gave it a try and immediately fell in love. The topics are pertinent, but not what you hear elsewhere. Discussions are thoughtful and from a different perspective.”

They provide sound medical advice that is a counterpoint to the predominantly white men who lead the fight to put women in the dark ages. The Nocturnists is a step to help...”Read full review »

“Using ChatGPT or any other AI application to help do a diagnosis is alarming. Which begs the question, why do we have medical schools? Why do we graduate new doctors every year? And why do doctors perform sub-par that ChatGPT helps them diagnose? These are questions which make patients question...”Read full review »

“After reading a review in the New York Times on this series, I was intrigued to listen to it. Brene Brown has researched and written about Shane, and I was curious as to how this could be applied to the process of becoming a physician. I was immediately drawn in, by the personal stories and the...”Read full review »
