Andrea Zajac ,

Awesome!

Who can’t resist checking out a show with such a clever name? And RDN Feraz does NOT disappoint with the fantastic pneumonics to help retain the vast amount of information we need to know! (Gotta hear the Chicken Teaching Cricket story in the Pancreatic enzyme episode.) His knowledge amazes me but I certainly have appreciated his ability to find mental connections to objects that help me remember important information. Thank you for a great show & best of luck in your career!

Great podcast!

So helpful! I’m only giving 4 stars because it’s really quiet and hard to hear if there is any other background noise going on. Love the content, explanations, and fun ways to remember the material. Thank you!

Too quiet

The content is pretty good but it’s near impossible to listen to in most contexts. This is the quietest podcast I have ever heard and to turn the volume all the way up and still not hear it is not only annoying, it’s a dealbreaker. Can’t listen to this in the car, or with headphones in during daily life activities if there is ANY outside noise whatsoever.
