🎙️ On The Podcast
Knock Knock, Hi!
​We take a look two real-world CPR stories: one that’ll make your blood boil, and another that’ll make you remember the good in people all over again. In this discussion, we explore what happens when bystanders freeze, how quick thinking saves lives, and why everyone should know at least something about CPR.
Next, we lighten things up with a game where Kristin has to guess if bizarre medical facts are from Marvel movies or real life.
And finally, we end up knee-deep in hemoglobin: from carbon monoxide poisoning to hyperbaric chambers, and to Kristin’s existential crisis about why it’s called alpha and beta - this one’s got everything.

Knock Knock, Eye!
​Will went to Disney World and, as you might expect, ended up diagnosing cartoon characters. We're playing all the hits: Mike Wazowski’s lack of depth perception, Goofy’s questionable eye anatomy, Winnie the Pooh’s all-pupil-no-iris situation, and many more. The result? A comprehensive ranking of which Disney characters would absolutely fail a vision test.
Plus, he also takes a quick dive into a real breakthrough from Stanford that might help restore sight lost to macular degeneration. Turns out, science is the real magic.

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.
