🎙️ On The Podcast
Knock Knock, Hi!
​This week, we talk about Will's experience speaking at a veterinary medical conference – which obviously included showing a thousand vets pictures of our dog Milo's eyes.
We get into the strange overlap between vet medicine and human medicine (yes, the cardiologists still argue), why ER veterinarians might actually have the hardest job in medicine, and how Will managed to accidentally do the very thing vets complain about most.
Finally, we dive headfirst into a Twitter firestorm about whether doctors should ever “Google it” in front of patients, plus a surprise crash course in chemotherapy drugs straight from Will's med school review book.

Knock Knock, Eye!
​What if the only thing that could truly unite this country was our collective rage at health insurance companies?
This week, Will is handing out his best social media survival advice (read: how to avoid getting fired).
He also shares the rare thrill of bringing vision back from the brink, and digs into why bloody tears are a real thing. Plus, he talks colorblindness, cataracts, and maybe even which of your five senses deserves the top spot.

Bendy Bodies
In honor of Pain Awareness Month, we’re also excited to share an episode from one of our favorite podcasts, Bendy Bodies with Dr. Linda Bluestein!
​In this recent interview, Dr. Bluestein sat down with Dr. Zach Spiritos, a neurogastroenterologist, to explore why gastrointestinal problems in hypermobile patients can be so difficult to detect with standard testing (and what patients and providers can do to find better answers and relief).

Dr. Glaucomflecken’s Guide To Ethical Medical Content Creation
With more and more people exposed to dangerous medical misinformation on social media, we need trustworthy clinicians to show up online to drown it out.
We created a teaching tool to help institutions prepare them to do just that. Learn more about licensing it for your institution below.
Lady Glaucomflecken’s Guide To Caring For Caregivers
For caregivers, ongoing support from the people in their circles is vital. Despite that, it can be incredibly incredibly difficult to ask for help.
Meanwhile, their family and loved ones also have questions that they’re too scared to ask. Questions that caregivers themselves don’t have the capacity to answer.
So, we put together a free resource to bridge that gap. Download it below.
