Knock Knock, Hi! with the Glaucomfleckens

"Knock Knock, Hi! with the Glaucomfleckens" dives into the highs, lows, and WTFs of healthcare. Whether you're in the medical field, live with a healthcare worker, or broke your arm once and are still paying off your medical bills, this is a must-listen. Join Will and Kristin Flanary (aka the Glaucomfleckens) for candid chats with leading healthcare voices like Dr. Mike and Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy. Discover fun facts about eyeballs, hear relatable stories from medical training, and sneak a peek into the U.S. health insurance industry (spoiler alert: it's not great!). We'll share our own perspectives of being a patient or family member experiencing the healthcare system. And, of course, we explore the question on everyone's minds: "Why has Dr. Glaucomflecken never had his eyes dilated?" Combining science with humor and a dash of snark, we unpack the human side of healthcare.

    Knock Knock Eye: Which Disney Characters Have the Worst Vision?

    I went to Disney World and ended up diagnosing cartoon characters. From Mike Wazowski’s lack of depth perception to Goofy’s questionable eye anatomy and Winnie the Pooh’s all pupil, no iris situation, I’m breaking down which Disney characters would absolutely fail a vision test. Plus, a quick dive into a real breakthrough from Stanford that might help restore sight lost to macular degeneration. It’s ophthalmology meets Disney meets mild existential crisis. What more could you want? Takeaways: Why Mike Wazowski’s single eye means he’s missing half the picture. The serious ocular condition Goofy might secretly have (and why glasses won’t fix it). Why Edna Mode needs cataract surgery yesterday. How Pixar’s signature huge eyes would actually mean extreme myopia. The surprising Disney character who might have the healthiest eyes of them all.

    Glauc Talk: Why Everyone Should Know CPR (Seriously)

    This week, Kristin and I dive into two real-world CPR stories. One that’ll make your blood boil (looking at you, Hofstra bar exam), and another that’ll make you want to hug a comedian in Spokane. We talk about what happens when bystanders freeze, how quick thinking saves lives, and why everyone should know at least something about CPR. Then I drag Kristin into a round of “Doctor Strange or Just Strange” where she has to guess if bizarre medical facts are from Marvel or real life. And finally, we end up knee-deep in hemoglobin. From carbon monoxide poisoning to hyperbaric chambers to… Kristen’s existential crisis about why it’s called alpha and beta, this one’s got everything. Takeaways: The Bar Exam Horror Story: When doing CPR isn’t optional… and the crowd gets it wrong. Stand-Up Saves Lives : The Spokane comedy show that turned into a medical emergency and a miracle. Co-Survivorship Matters: Why everyone affected by a cardiac arrest deserves support, not just the patient. Doctor Strange or Just Strange? : From leeches to living chickens, the medical world is somehow stranger than Marvel. Hemoglobin Deep Dive : Oxygen, carbon monoxide, and one very long tangent about evolution, naming conventions, and why Kristen can’t stop asking “but why?” — To Get Tickets to Wife & Death: You can visit Glaucomflecken.com/live  We want to hear YOUR stories (and medical puns)!

    Knock Knock Eye: Does Vision Therapy Actually Work?

    Can you really “train” your eyes to work better or is vision therapy mostly hype? In this episode, I’m breaking down the three main types of vision therapy, what the science says about each, and how to tell when it’s actually helpful versus when it’s just expensive pseudoscience. We’ll talk convergence insufficiency (the one real winner), why eye exercises don’t fix dyslexia or myopia, and how to ask the right questions before spending a dime. Takeaways: What “vision therapy” actually means and why ophthalmologists don’t usually do it. The big myth about eye exercises curing learning disabilities and dyslexia. Why vision therapy won’t reverse nearsightedness (no matter what social media says). The rare situation where vision therapy does work and what it looks like. How to protect yourself (and your wallet) from unproven treatments dressed up as science. — To Get Tickets to Wife & Death: You can visit Glaucomflecken.com/live  We want to hear YOUR stories (and medical puns)!

    The Med Student Who Got in Trouble for Going Viral with Kumail Hussain

    What happens when your med school doesn’t like your TikToks? This week, we talk to Dr. Kumail Hussain, a physician who went viral for his medical content… and got in serious trouble for it. We dig into the story that followed: professionalism hearings, probation, and the ripple effects that followed him into residency. But this isn’t just about one doctor’s social media misstep, it’s about what medicine still fears. Free expression. Humanity. The idea that doctors might have personalities outside the hospital. We talk about how far is too far when it comes to posting, how institutions are catching up (or not), and why the next generation of doctors will need to understand the internet as well as they understand anatomy. Takeaways: How one med student’s videos became a case study in “professionalism.” What happens when old-school institutions meet new-school creators. Why no one can agree on what it actually means. How online presence can shape, or sink, a medical career. Why the next generation of doctors must be allowed to show up as humans. — Want more Kumail Hussain?: Snack Store: https://snackd.shop/ https://www.instagram.com/thekumailh/ https://www.youtube.com/@thekumailh https://www.tiktok.com/@thekumailh https://www.facebook.com/thekumailhussain1 To Get Tickets to Wife & Death: You can visit Glaucomflecken.com/live  We want to hear YOUR stories (and medical puns)!

    Knock Knock Eye: The Testicular Hill I’m Willing to Die On

    I’m back with part two of my “life lessons at 40” and yes, it’s even more random than part one. From safety glasses and social media boundaries to testicle self-exams (yes, really), I’m sharing the wisdom I’ve collected over four decades. Plus, a neuro-ophthalmology curveball: a patient with mismatched pupils and a mystery diagnosis that turns out to be a Horner syndrome. Takeaways: Why you should always wear safety glasses, even if you swear you were “careful.” How public speaking can change your career (and why everyone should try it). The scam emails sliding into your inbox pretending to be famous podcasters. Why making content at work is a one-way ticket to regret.

    Glauc Talk: Wait… Viruses Can Cause Cancer?!

    We’re back with a follow-up to the “no inner monologue” chaos, but this time, we’re going deeper. Kristin and I unpack what it actually feels like when your brain disconnects, how trauma can flip your reality switch, and why dissociation might just be your mind’s weirdest defense mechanism. Then we shift gears into something truly wild: the microscopic villains that can give you cancer. Yep, your high school biology class never warned you about this lineup of viruses, parasites, and bacteria with major overachiever energy. And of course, we can’t resist taking a detour into herpes (because why not?) and what it’s like to realize your body might be hosting more guests than you invited. Takeaways: Mind on Autopilot – How dissociation protects you when reality’s too much to handle. Microbe Madness – The shocking list of infections that can cause cancer. Parasites with a Dark Side – Some don’t just invade… they rewrite your cells. Herpes Facts You Didn’t Ask For – But can’t stop thinking about.

    Knock Knock Eye: 40 Tips From Dr. Glaucomflecken On His 40th Birthday (part 1)

    I just turned 40 and I’ve learned a few things along the way. Some about eyeballs, some about life, and a few the hard way (looking at you, hot tub corneal ulcer). In this special two-part birthday series, I’m sharing the lessons, advice, and random pearls I’ve picked up over four decades from why you should never argue with trolls online to how flossing can save your sanity. It’s a mix of serious, silly, and surprisingly heartfelt. And yes… we’re talking Chiefs football too. Takeaways: Why hot tubs and contact lenses are a match made in ophthalmic horror. The social media rule I wish I’d followed sooner: never argue with strangers online. How flossing and CPR training made it onto my top 40 life lessons. Why posting after midnight is a terrible idea (and what happened when I did).

    Glauc Talk: Why We're Haunted by the Presidential Fitness Test

    Some episodes wander. This one sprints from childhood trauma (aka the Presidential Fitness Test pull-up requirement) to the ethics of free speech on social media, to guts literally spilling outside the body in a crash course on gastroschisis and omphalocele. Kristin and I also talk about why doctors get in trouble online, how to avoid losing your job with one bad post, and the weird dynamic of being expected to comment on every news story. Oh and did I mention I went on a podcast where they gave me nitrous oxide and then grilled me about eyeballs? Spoiler: turns out laughing gas doesn’t shut me up about ophthalmology. It’s equal parts silly, nerdy, and serious: political violence, embryology, dental confessions, and the eternal truth that flossing beats cavities every time. Takeaways: The Pull-Up Curse – Why the Presidential Fitness Test scarred an entire generation. Free Speech ≠ Free Consequences – How social media can cost you more than followers. Political Violence Isn’t the Answer – A reminder we apparently still need to say out loud. Ventral Wall Defects 101 – Gastroschisis vs. Omphalocele, explained with minimal gagging.
