- The Coolest POD for the coolest people in medicine
Drs Pawa and Gadsden are legends and household names (or blockroom hold? 😅) in the field of regional anaesthesia, but they make the pod seem like it’s just 2 dudes on either side of the Atlantic talking about life,regional anaesthesia and everything in between.Classic Dad Jokes, strong Disney references. Discretion advised 😆

Had the privilege of seeing a few of Amit’s lectures in Hobart, Tasmania this past week. If you think listening to him is amazing, his presentations and personality are even better in person. If he had a global tour, sign me up!

Every month when a new episode comes out me and my family gather around and listen to it. It gives all a good kick and always ha... more
