  • Amazing study material

    This podcast is great to identify differential diagnosis and to hear test questions.

    The only thing I would recommend is to not play music too soon over the test questions or towards the end of the podcasts. Definitely takes away from hearing the entire question.

  • Good material poor sound quality

    Good material- straight and to the point, but poor sound quality that makes it difficult to listen to in the car or while doing other tasks

  • Great Content

    Great content, but audio is lacking. It’s too bad how such a small thing as audio can make an awesome podcast mediocre.
