Let's Talk Now LTN Aaron Rothstein

I connect with Dr. Zixi Wang - a medical school friend who I don't get to see enough these days. 
We catch up and talk about his role as a family doctor in London, Ontario, his unique childhood and immigration story, as well as his passions including running, visual art, and photography.
 
 

I really enjoy talking and being inspired with Marc-David Munk MD, a Canadian-American physician with a recent book release:  Urgent Calls from Distant Places: An Emergency Doctor's Notes About Life and Death on the Frontiers of East Africa.
We get to talk about writing the book, his work in East Africa with AMREF Flying Doctors, challenges working in the ER in North American health care system, and his retraining in Palliative Care Medicine. He has also worked as an innovator in health care delivery with, for example, CVS pharmacy and Iora Health, and he mentions some alternative ways of approaching primary care delivery.

I interview Ronald Hae, a very interesting person who works as a high school accounting teacher, is a part-time comedian, and who hosts his own podcast - The Teacher Hotline.
I really enjoy talking to the at times serious and at times hilarious Ronald about his thoughts on teaching grade 11 and 12, including some of the joys and challenges of the modern teaching world, and the Comedy Group he started at the school. We hear about some of his background, some of his work and personal history and his recent foray into podcasting.
Lastly, we talk in detail about his passion - the art of comedy - including his upcoming projects, how he deals with hecklers, and what are some tips for new comics.

Today, I have the pleasure of talking with my brother - Jack Manchester -  a very insightful, adventurous, and entertaining person.
We talk about a lot of topics we have rarely explored in depth:
His experience as a therapist and Sensei using mixed martial arts at an organization called Integra in Toronto to build coping skills and provide healing for struggling youth; His ongoing transitions and questions about what is to come in work and life; His life experiences with tree planting, traveling, martial arts and Zen; And what we could expect from Jack Manchester moving forward.
I hope you have as much fun as I did with this episode! And I hope we can have him back for future discussions.

Welcome to the first ever episode of the Let's Talk Now (LTN) podcast. 
In this episode I interview friend and inspiring person Ryan Stoa. After reminiscing and getting some idea of where we come from, we talk about his career as an environmental law professor, his adventure sports including a harrowing experience with paragliding, and conclude by talking about his 2018 classic - Craft Weed: Family Farming and the Future of the Marijuana Industry.
Two good friends get to catch up and I even learned a bunch of new things.
