The Doctor's Art

I came across this podcast couple months ago and have been enjoying it immensely since. Each guest has their very unique perspective in the deeper meaning of medicine and what each can do to not lose sight on those things due to burnt out etc. I really appreciate the time and efforts that got put into this. Everyone should take a listen! So much you can gain from these!

The guests and stories are all inspiring, whether it's because of the humanism or because of the accomplishments. These episodes have some truly remarkable people. Very impressed over here.

… I hope my doctors are listening to this podcast, for their own sanity and inspiration. And I’d like to do a better job making meaning in my own profession, which is music. It’s funny how music can become mechanical if I don’t “nurture [my] sense of wonder so it’s always ahead of [my] craft,” as composer JAC Redford says. Sound like that’s true in medicine, and I guess it’s true in just about any aspect of life. I’m trying to sustain the magic and meaning in music, and I’ve taken some inspiration by analogy from how these doctors rediscover and surface meaning, and bump into something bigger, in their own work.

Looks like this show is in its second year but it's quite impressive who they've managed to talk to. The conversations are fairly high quality though I did wish the audio quality was more consistent (I know it's sometimes not the show's fault but still). Hope the hosts continue improving.
