  • Excellent Board prep

    I listened to every available episode prior to the recertification exam for IM in spring of 2026. The 190 episodes covered a broad array of topics in a compact format. The physician hosts are superb and entertaining. Thanks to you all

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Ep 209: A 65-Year-Old with an Abnormal Chest CT
Q: Does our patient have asbestosis?
No; pleural plaques suggest asbestos exposure but do not indicate diffuse interstitial fibrosis typical of asbestosis, which requires different clinical criteria and exposure history.
Episode 215: A 43-Year-Old with Pericarditis
Q: Does our patient need to be hospitalized to initiate therapy?
Most patients can be managed as outpatients with careful follow-up, but hospitalization is advised if there are signs of poor prognosis such as high fever, large effusion, immune suppression, or tamponade, or suspicion of systemic illness.
Episode 215: A 43-Year-Old with Pericarditis
Q: What about anakinra?
Anakinra is considered in patients with multiple frequent recurrences not controlled by colchicine and NSAIDs or glucocorticoids, and may be beneficial in select refractory cases; pericardial stripping is a last resort.
Episode 215: A 43-Year-Old with Pericarditis
Q: How long would you treat for?
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatories should be continued for one to two weeks and tapered over several weeks, with colchicine added for about three months in many cases.
Episode 215: A 43-Year-Old with Pericarditis
Q: In this patient, which of the following is the most effective therapy?
Ibuprofen (a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory) is the best initial therapy, with colchicine often added for recurrence prevention.
