  • The Best

    This is my favorite podcast by far. Dr Lange and Ms Tracey do a great job discussing and explaining the latest medical research. They explain in under 15 minutes what would take me hours to figure out. And they do a great job giving us the most current and objective (which is difficult to find) and informed info about Covid. I highly recommend this podcast.

  • My favorite podcast

    Out of the 20 or so podcasts I subscribe to, this is without doubt my favorite. The topics are always interesting and informative. Rick and Elizabeth are great hosts and they are well-informed and compassionate. I am not a medical professional but I love medical science, and I always learn from each episode. I'm very glad that they restarted the show after Rick's move to El Paso (where I grew up).
