Great but interviews can be irksome
Great short content that’s applicable to daily practice. Lately, one NP has massive vocal fry and the other stutters and stops her sentences so frequently that it can impede listening.

Helpful but would like to hear from physician experts
Generally find these podcasts helpful and appreciate them. Rather than seeing NP and PAs presenting medicine topics, would love to see physicians specialists discuss subject matter in detail.
