Because a community of cowards watch me constantly

The podcast we’ve all been waiting for
This podcast is amazing! I can’t wait for the next episode. Such important work answering the questions we’ve all been furiously googling. Top notch info with actual physicians, unlike so many podcasts offering weird medical advice.
Great way to access unique health info
Such a smart idea to have an academic medical center’s experts answer frequently asked (embarrassing) questions! Love the conversational style and thoughtful line of questioning.
