Having faith in marriage is essential for a successful and happy relationship. It is the trust that you have in each other to make the relationship work and remain strong in the face of adversity. Faith in marriage is also the belief that you can get through any difficulty or challenge that may come your way.

When Tim and May met in medical school, they had no idea that they would eventually get married. They began as friends and went rock climbing together. May had a crush on Tim, so she left little love notes and hints...

A “forced” retired military hero, Dr. Pete Chambers is our guest today who became a proclaimed ‘whistleblower’ by Senator Ron Johnson. Dr. Chambers was working as a physician and following military orders to provide informed consents for all vaccines administered to his patients, yet was ordered by his superiors to “disobey military orders” and stop giving informed consent to encourage increased vaccine compliance. Meanwhile, after seeing multiple rare medical events in normally healthy young service members he started to research the Defense Medical Epidemiologi...

Many people are unable to pursue their dreams because they are too busy living in fear.

Our guest Jim Jordan has worked in every healthcare system, from pharma, education, hospitals to IT and biotech.

 He joins us to discuss some of the barriers to healthcare across the country and why the system is so confusing and complicated.  We all know there is a major divide between  public health and the actual delivery of healthcare. How did this happen and what can we do to remedy this in the future?

So……….what can patients and the general public do to improve the business of healthcare? 

It’s a great conversation we have shar...

Did you know your neck is often the most likely underlying cause of your migraine??? Say that again?!

Secondly when it comes to chronic headaches and migraines, our medical system doesn't match patients with the right provider. It focuses on symptom management as the go-to solution- think pills for prevention, pills for headache, pills for side effects of the pills…

As providers, we need to work together to push towards a more holistic approach towards healthcare that is patient-centered, conservative and collaborative. But how?

Today’s guest is Dr. Jono Taves - the owne...

May is now bilaterally bionic, or to quote the pop star Sia: “I am Titanium!” As our daughter said, “50 is now the new 80” and  joint replacements are not a “last resort” medical procedure anymore. Thanks to advances in technology and Medicine, patients of all ages are getting joint replacements and regaining their quality of life.

Can you believe May had a hip replacement one week ago and just recorded a podcast?! In 1992 when May had her ACL repaired, the standard of care was one week in a hospital bed! In 2023, you get to walk out of a surgery cente...

Tim and I wanted to bring some positivity today ( I think?) We  wanted to cover the wonderful things Medicine has to offer, in the name of life changing procedures- specifically us oldies getting NEW JOINTS! Well…… we failed ( insert the eyeroll)

Sadly his story does not have a happy ending. He shares with us how speaking up for something he observed in his patient population and publishing that information cost him his Medical license. Listen to his attitude and arguments then decide for yourself if he was tr...

Happy Thanksgiving! Are you “Thankful” today?  We sure hope so!  We are giving you some extra food for thought today as we discuss gratitude.

Tim and I compare thankfulness to gratitude, the health benefit of gratitude and the bigger psychological benefit of being grateful. We are going to give you tips on how to change your attitude to gratitude even though you may relish in the occasional road rage rampage ( like Tim admits to secretly to).

Science has no agenda! But apparently the Oregon Board of Medical Examiners does. 

Our guest this week is a physician who truly exemplifies courage and compassion. Dr. Paul Thomas started to question the CDC childhood vaccine schedule and suddenly found himself in trouble with the Oregon Board.

 His unique pediatric practice evolved over time, having different groups of families that included fully vaccinated to completely unvaccinated children. He then started to notice some significant differences between the groups of children,  so he did a retrospective analysis and had his results published.

Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) , specifically questions regarding menopause and testosterone replacement therapies, is one of the most commonly asked questions we get. HRT for menopause has been and still IS a widely debated issue. Will it cause heart disease and cancer or do hormones  actually help reduce risk factors and improve quality of life ? Understanding and supplementing women and men with HRT has been something that allopathic physicians struggle with doing well.

What if you became the patient being cared for in the OR by the staff that usually assists you, the Doctor? Hear this amazing story from Dr. Annie Thurman, our guest this week in our next installment in our series of “The Doctor as Patient”. 

Dr. Thurman is a Gynecologist from Virginia. Her health story gave her insight and a new perspective towards coworkers and patients. 

She graciously shares the events that led to her diagnosis of early stage breast cancer.  Her positive attitude and perspective are encouraging and so evident!  She shares how she gained a...

Dr. Robert Yoho is our guest today, a whistleblower and author regarding the fraud that occurs in healthcare. He wrote the Amazon bestselling book, Butchered by Healthcare that has over 100 five-star reviews. He explains how our sadly damaged system fits together and how patients can get around the problems.

January 17, 1961 President Eisenhower gave the most pointed warning to the United States. He spoke of the necessity of major industry for maintaining an adequate defense. His warning about the newly coined “military industrial complex” was that it would become such an endless presence that it would require continuous spen...

We catch up with attorney Ryan Heath, our guest from Episode 56. Ryan has been passionate about mask mandates and the law, specifically the negative effects on children from various schools' rigid and unforgiving mandates.

 Ryan founded The Gavel Project, a new nonprofit organization that provides education and support to the public regarding the recent Covid-19 mandates/issues. Its mission is to fight unethical government/employer mandates and  protect the freedom of Americans, especially children.

 Ryan has been on the frontlines in California and is here to share what has been happening the past few months. He...

Sometimes frustrating, occasionally painful but ultimately one of the most rewarding things in humanity is what we are serving up today. It’s “Marriage”.

Great marriages exist but they don’t happen by accident, they happen on purpose.

At a time when it seems impossible to imagine a marriage lasting 30 plus years- we know it’s possible. So do our guests!

Dr. Jeep and Vanessa Naum join us today as we enjoy discussing our thoughts on keys to a successful marriage. They have been married nearly 30 years and working with couples since 1994. Their company, B...

Want to hear from one of the greatest stuntmen of all time sharing his thoughts on “safety”? 

Tim is man crushing & fanboying out on this week's epic interview with stuntman Eddie Braun. 

Eddie’s life is an example that “fear is no excuse”. He will be the first to tell you that recklessness is different from planned risk.  Doing great things is not necessarily about risk, but having the skills to manage your fears. People are often unable to live their dreams, because they are too busy living their fears. 

About Eddie Braun:

Turning lemons into lemonade is what our guest John Matland has done.

Sadly many of you will relate to his story. Like many other healthcare workers across the nation and the world, he experienced job termination during the pandemic. As an imaging technician in a New York hospital, he chose to wait on receiving any Covid vaccines and questioned the reasoning behind selective testing only of nonvaccinated workers.

Let’s just say “he didn’t go lightly into the dark night”!

John Matland has a vivacious personality and is passionate about making positive changes...

If you could take 40 Motrin tablets without the toxic response would you do it?

Today we are talking about ways to get increased oxygenation, decreased swelling, decreased inflammation all in one treatment.

Welcome to Hyperbaric Oxygen therapy (HBOT) ! It’s not just for scuba injuries or wound care. There is evidence for improvement in brain injury, joint issues, autoimmune disease to numerous general health issues.

LED and light therapies are also used in dermatology, orthopedics, rehab and alternative/wellbeing therapies.

We are exploring some alternative therapies for optimal health, healing and me...

Drs. Kirk and Kimberly Milhoan are an amazing physician couple with a unique combination of expertise in Pediatric Cardiology and Pediatric Anesthesia. They have experienced what happens when  speaking out against the status quo on Covid therapeutics , and what that cost is. Kirk tells of how he became subject to investigation by the Hawaii Board of Medicine for a conversation he had regarding Covid therapies. 

Throughout the pandemic they began to question the evolving push of vaccines over outpatient therapies. Kirk also has concerns with what is happening to children’s cardiac health as a result of usin...

We are long overdue for another Doctor As Patient episode. I decided it would be perfect for me to share my own personal story and journey with migraine. Having been a lifelong migraine patient, it has impacted my life since I was 11 years old. I have tried to never let it define me, but living with a chronic illness certainly controls many aspects of your life.

I have tried almost every therapeutic option/treatment and now am blessed to have found a game changing new medication that has given me my life back! Along the way I...

Cheers-We are celebrating another Doctales!

Do you remember eating candy hearts? Did you know that they used to be medicinal? Trust a pharmacist to turn drugs into a money making operation….voila candy hearts were created!

Tim thinks Valentines is about “gettin’ lucky” so he puts his own spin on Valentine’s Luck with a bit of history on the origin of Valentines and who really DID get lucky when it came to hearts.

Stick around for some ‘mom’ jokes , aka sappy love notes, and our review of the sweetest cocktail we’ve made.

I have a slight obsession with a trainer I follow on Facebook and Instagram. I’ve been following Cori Lefkowith of REDEFINING STRENGTH  for years, enjoying her motivational posts and loving her targeted exercises for my troublesome injuries.  She has great rehab advice that I have tried and tested on my numerous Ortho injuries. She has helped me when many PT’s couldn’t  even crack the mystery.      She posted something a few weeks ago that blew my mind: “Most people fail because of how they try to achieve their goals.”  She went on to write that the date at which most peop...

Last week the Supreme Court blocked the OSHA vaccine mandate for large businesses. While this is a huge ruling, how exactly did this overturn and how was it decided? During this pandemic we have seen decisions being made based on doctrine. Do administrative agencies have the authority to implement medical mandates based on their interpretation of science? 

To help us unpack what happened and where we might be headed with this ruling is our guest, attorney Ryan Heath. He does an amazing job explaining how OSHA had over reached their authority and power as interpreted by the S...

Today we talk about Omicron taking over as the dominant strain around the world and the future of Covid.  Omicron is much more contagious, seems to be much less dangerous and mitigation strategies have not worked. 

The world has gone MAD focusing on vaccine status instead of what is happening with infections, illness and hospitalization/deaths. 

Could Omicron be the golden ticket that is turning this pandemic into an “endemic”? Join our banter!

Pfizer has released a potential “treatment” for Covid: Paxlovid.  The drug, Paxlovid, received an emergency use authorization by FDA for use in patients 12 years old and up who have tested positive for COVID-19 and are at high risk. 

We are honored to have Dr. Joel S Hirschhorn with us to share his expertise and countless hours of research analyzing the data. He is the author of Pandemic Blunder: Fauci and Public Health Blocked Early Home COVID Treatment.

Today we dive into how this new drug works, how well our other treatment options have been doing ( MABs...

We made it! One full year of podcasting in the books.  Of course ANYTHING Covid was gobbled up by our listeners. In fact the top 10 episodes were ALL Covid related- no surprise.

Tim says that his way of thinking about the scientific process and validity of medical data and studies has been demolished after his favorite episode: #25: Follow the Herd with Dr. Harvey Risch

May thinks the Fentanyl Series is a must listen! Go back and catch up on Episode Episode #9, 10 and 11. Here how our friends were personally affected by the Fentanyl Epidemic. Then listen t...

You’ve heard all the jokes- what’s your poo telling you?, eat sh&t and die, you’re full of sh&t. Today we are going in deep and discussing how “eating” poo can actually save people! ( no they don’t really have to eat it, but it makes a great title!)

Fecal microbiota transplant ( FMT) aka a stool transplant, is the process of transferring stool from a healthy patient into another individual. Currently in the USA,  the only FDA approved use of this treatment is for C. difficile infections. It has been used experimentally to treat other G...

Merry Christmas and cheers to the last Doctales of the year! We’ve got a great festive nog recipe and a lineup of stories of Christmas hazards. 

Singing tree crashes, and tinsel in kittens. Falls from the rooftop and 40 below shut ins. These are a few of our non- favorite things.

Guess what? There is a whole world of other career options out there for those who are looking for a complete career change or just starting a new side gig. 

Dr. John Jurica joins us today to give us an overview of the options. I think he must have heard them all!

The big “O” variant is upon us, May’s got Covid and we repurposed a livestream!  Here comes Omicron. What does this mean for the winter, for your family, your job, your health, your mask supply? 

There has been a lot of panic pushed by the media over this new variant. So what’s the truth? Is it Molly Hatchet and we’re “flirtin’ with disaster”?  Maybe it’s Muller’s Ratchet- where organisms accrue so many deleterious mutations that they push themselves into extinction. Or….. a whole pile of options in between.

Go big or go home… this is an in depth look at a rising trend in the healthcare workforce. 

What do you know about healthcare unions? Do you think of pickets and healthcare providers demanding more money? Did you even know they existed?

With the continuous corporatization of American healthcare, physicians have been losing their voice, power and have not figured out a successful way to keep their power in advocating for the patients best interest. As I have often told patients, I feel like I have as much power as the Walmart checker does in...

Happy Thanksgiving! We hope you are enjoying the holiday weekend, giving thanks and staying safe. 

We also hope you are avoiding the big holiday medical horrors that are common at this time of year. Stop freaking out about Covid this weekend, it’s still more likely that an auto accident will occur than the attack of the spike proteins. 

Don’t let football or family get your blood boiling, or your heart stopping. Avoid the ER from flying knives, boiling gravy and dirty birds that breed Salmonella! We’ll tell you how NOT to cook a wild t...

If anyone understands how important it is to live every moment of life right down to the last thousandth of a second, it’s today’s guest- Steve Torrence. 

November 14th, 2021 Steve won his 4th Top Fuel Dragster World Championship ( in a row). This is how most of the world knows Steve but his story starts much earlier than with racing. His journey of perseverance began in 2000 when he was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s Lymphoma at seventeen years of age. After battling through this, he has had some huge medical challenges along the way. 

This is a sto...

How would you react if you were diagnosed with cancer? Unless you have been there, it’s difficult to imagine. Today’s guest, Rick Dancer,  relives this trip with us.

He graciously takes us through his diagnosis, fears and questions he had in deciding what treatment would be right for him. Rick did a lot of research, not “settling” for a medical plan that would leave him with an outcome he found unacceptable.  

During our interview it becomes apparent that he didn’t expect how this life changing diagnosis would ultimately impact his life in such a positi...

What killed 600 K men and women in 2020?  Nope not Covid. Even in 2020, the second leading cause of death behind heart disease is Cancer. 

Sadly everyone has forgotten about the original C word. With the pandemic, Cancer screenings plummeted and people have lost focus on their true health risks. 

While breast cancer is the most common cancer in women and prostate cancer is the most common in men, the number one cancer killer is still lung cancer. Most people don’t even know that there IS screening available & recommended for those at high risk.

We’re celebrating Halloween week with Spooky medical facts and stories.

Black cats step aside! We’ve got Oscar.. you DON’T want HIM visiting your bed. 

Heard of H.H.Holmes or Jolly Jane? These crazy serial killers working in the medical field did some creepy stuff.

Did you know there’s a study on how long rodents maintain consciousness after decapitation? What about humans? Well for Mike the chicken.. he lived a full 18 months … what?!

Meanwhile we are calming our nerves with some Monopolowa with Raft Hibiscus/ Lavender syrup… mmmm. 

With the recent mandates for vaccine requirements at various places of employment around the country, deadlines are looming for employees to show proof of Covid vaccination. 

We have been bombarded with questions regarding medical exemptions for those who truly should not receive the  vaccine, those who have a medical reason NOT to get it as well as what qualifies as a “religious accommodation”.

How does one apply, what forms do you need, who fills it out? What happens if your employer refuses to  “accept” your physician letter and you are given your “walking papers’ instead?

This episode is in honor of World Mental Health Day (and because my bestie k.d asked a long time ago for this)

It’s really hard to do justice to a topic in 40 minutes that is so vast and layered. 

The mental health crisis in the US has fallen on deaf ears for years.  Now with Covid bringing emotional stress, healthcare burnout, social isolation, disruption of societal norms- well it’s no wonder the whole world hasn’t literally gone mad. We are here to tell you we get it, you’re not alone, it gets be...

This week Tim flies solo. May is gone so Tim has lost his wingman or wing woman (for political correctness).  Tim interviews Dr Paul Alexander, former member of the US Covid Task Force and advisor to the WHO, among many other roles. He has a PhD in evidenced based medicine and quotes studies faster than most of us can breathe. Paul makes a very compelling evidence  based argument that children should be treated as “already being vaccinated”. We dive deep into the data on children and covid, vaccine efficacy and what the vaccine has accomplished to this point.

What does it really mean when we say follow the science?

Believe it or not, this week is a Doctales with Cocktails episode- albeit a more sobering discussion over a fine, local whiskey. What a perfect episode to ponder over a tumbler of.                Blue Line Unapologetic American Whiskey!

This week we discuss some historical things done in the name of science. Specifically we dive into Eugenics, the science of “the day” for over 50 years. It became accepted by the scientific community and world elites, intellectuals and political leaders including Alexander Graham Bell, Winston Churchill, John Maynard Keynes...

The most underrated frontline warriors in the Covid-19 fight are the ICU nurses. I’m super excited for you to hear from my sister, Heather Burgess. She has a 10 year career as a Critical Care RN and has been front and central since the pandemic began. She lives in Canada and chats with us today about the Canadian Covid experience. 

While the patient is fighting for their life, the nurses are there 24/7, 365. More recently they have been denied any vacation time, are doubled up with responsibility and are sharing the emotional stress with patients, families and colleagues. Now...

Two weeks in a row… more Covid questions answered!  This week we are tackling the giant influx of questions on Covid Vaccines!

Yes, Covid vaccines can be all three… good, bad and maybe ugly for different groups of people! We hash out that once vax does NOT fit all! Who should DEFINITELY get Vaxxed, who should be cautious , who should say NO WAY? We even cover Nikki Minaj, say what!

Today, we help you unpack the data “RISK” thrown around by the “experts”. Best of all, Tim uses an AMISH community to teach a statistics lesson!

You asked for it! More updates on Covid. We are giving a Sparks notes version on Vaccines, Boosters, and early treatment.

We take a look around the world, to see what is going on and to bring you a sense of where we THINK we are headed.

-Boosters- yay or nay?

-Outpatient treatment- what’s in vogue and why aren’t we using it?

-What we know about Chicken health and how that impacts Covid vaccines

And yes…...someone who’s vaccinated got COVID! Was it Sturgis??

Every year, 190 billion plastic pharmaceutical bottles are thrown away!  That’s a lot of plastic in our landfills and oceans. But we can change all that, and it’s starting with Cabinet Health!

Cabinet, is a new direct-to consumer health company that specializes in over the counter medications.

When you think of Palliative Care, do you ever think of surgeons being involved? Imagine if we told you that they were the “founders” of the palliative care concept! Not only that, but they bring a unique approach to caring for patients along with the growing field in Board certification in Hospice and Palliative Medicine.

Our guest this week is Dr. Red Hoffman, who specializes in integrative palliative medicine and hospice. Initially trained as a naturopath and yoga teacher, Dr Red has practiced a unique blend of trauma surgery and palliative care and is additionally trained in surg...

Welcome back for Part 2 of our interview with Dr. Peter Breggin , the “Conscience of Psychiatry”.

We pick up from last week’s show in our discussion on the history of psychiatric treatment reform, to the parallels with public and social control during Covid.

Today we dive into the basis of his new book- Covid 19 and the Global Predators

We discuss the big picture with the events before and during the Covid 19 worldwide pandemic and the international intertwining of big power. Is the response to Covid 19 based on science and acts of goodwill towards mankin...

What do you call a psychiatrist with over 50 years in clinical Medicine, who fought for the ending of lobotomies and huge reforms in mental health? Tim has labelled him “The Godfather of BS Free Medicine!!

His passion for science and justice has earned him the title of ‘The Conscience of Psychiatry”.

His work as patient advocate and expert witness helped take down psychosurgeries ( the lobotomy) and the overprescribing of psychiatric medications.

He has a HUGE heart for his patients which is evident in today’s interview.

Today is Part 1, and In this epi...

Dreaming of a career outside clinical Medicine? Want to work remotely, expand your medical horizons, do some research and try a NEW type of Medical Consulting that can replace your income? Welcome to the world of Medical/Legal Consulting Coaching!  I never even KNEW this existed!

Our guest this week is Dr. Armin Feldman. He is a graduate of the University of Wisconsin Medical School. He completed his training in psychiatry at the University of Colorado Health Sciences Center. He practiced psychiatry for over 20 years. Dr. Feldman owned out-patient head injury rehabilitation clinics around the country.

Imagine that one moment you are going about your everyday life, the next instant you experience your child’s life vanishing in front of you. This is the story and journey of grief recovery from our dear guest Dr. Marcy Larson. She graciously shares her personal story, how it affected her ability to practice Medicine and how she created a podcast to help not only her personal healing but others as well.

The loss of a child is the biggest loss one can ever suffer. Openly discussing grief is something our culture is not very adept at. Kn...

We know you’ve been waiting.. Yes, it's Doctales!

ICD codes are the bane of a doctor’s life. We languish in our pain with the most absurd ICD-10 codes we have heard of. If it has happened, it exists as a billing code: walked into lamp post, sucked into jet engine, attacked by orca, problem with the in-laws?  Yes these make their way into the insurance companies hands to process the cause of your visit.

If you were injured at the opera house, ever had bizarre personal hygiene, had an accident with a land yacht...

To vaccinate or not vaccinate, that’s the question when it comes to our children and Covid-19. While the controversy has been huge, we discuss the evidence and data on early Covid treatment in everyone and also  infections, morbidity, and risk to kids from infections as well as vaccines. At the time of this interview, rates of myocarditis in healthy young adults are now being correlated  with the vaccine.The CDC confirmed at least 226 confirmed cases of myocarditis, have been reported in people under 30 who got the Pfizer or Moderna vaccines. How will this impact our children short term and l...

Let's talk “Herd Immunity”. Not the cow kind of herd… think posse, gaggle, squad, or mass …. The Cambridge English Dictionary definition for a whole lot of people! We are diving into the specifics on Covid infection and herd immunity. Hear how we have reached herd immunity long ago in the USA and how the current push is more focused on vaccination rates.

Our guest this week is Dr. Harvey Risch. He is a Professor of Epidemiology in the Department of Epidemiology and Public Health at the Yale School of Public Health and Yale School of Medicine. He  received h...

This week we are talking about “drugs”, specifically the world of PBMs with Dr. Lee Strandberg. Pharmacy Benefit Managers(PBM)  are the middlemen between your pharmacist and your prescription and your insurance company. Yep.. more middlemen.

If you have never heard of the term PBM, well you are not alone. Most people have no clue that they exist, how they work and how the cost or medications is controlled, negotiated or paid for. They are the one paying the pharmacist for your medication! While there are approximately 60 PBS, the 3 largest ones currently control 80% of the market.

Dr. Batra is a Board Certified Medical Oncologist and Hematologist. Her story is not only ironic but provides a unique perspective, having recently been diagnosed and treated for early stage breast cancer.

She graciously shares the events that led to fortunate early diagnosis, her unique ability to advocate for her own treatment plan and how she dealt with the  emoti...

This week is a continuation from our podcast last week with Dr. Peter McCullough regarding   Covid-19!  Last week  we discussed  evidence based treatments for Covid-19 , best practices to avoid hospitalizations and death plus what resources we have.

This week is all about the vaccines, safety, adverse events and RISK!. Plus is there a bigger theme in all of this? It feels like we are fighting a war not against Covid, but against each other. With opposing sides in the public and medicine, to vaccinate or not...

This week is just the beginning of some AWESOME discussions around  Covid-19!

Dr. McCullough is a practicing internist and cardiologist and Professor of Medicine at Texas A & M Col...

Today’s episode is the first in our series on “The Doctor as Patient”. So many times at work I have been shocked when patients find out I had the flu, had surgery or experienced a “real medical” problem. No we aren’t superheroes, and we DO share your pain.  When the doc becomes the patient, they often will experience the same struggles ,vulnerabilities and fears. This can be a very eye opening experience and impact how we see and treat our patients.

This week we have the privilege to hear from Dr. Manisha Rayavarapu. She is a Family Medi...

Yippee it’s time for another Doctales with Cocktails! Cheers AND…..today we are diving into the beginning of our series on the “Doctor as Patient”.  We love to poke fun at ourselves, so we are sharing a few ‘memoirs” from our morbid past.

Did you know Tim tried to be stoic beyond his common sense? Yep and he managed to land up with extended “staycation” at the hotel hospital, experiencing the pleasures of baseball and PCA pump full of morphine.

We share our first childbirth experience. Come on who are we kidding- we all know it was actua...

It seems our fans are enamoured with our relationship and how we interact.  After 30 years together our marriage is thriving, the nagging has ceased. the socks on the floor don’t matter and we have solved the dishwasher argument.

Most importantly we still LIKE each other.

Guess what? Storybooks and Hollywood are fake! Relationships are not all saccharin perfection and you DON”T have to pull the plug or call it quits when things get tough. There honestly have been a few “I don’t love you any more moments” that we will share with you. Okay s...

No we aren’t swearing mad! This week we are sharing our 4 F’s to success and what priorities need the most attention and balance in everyone’s life:

Faith- yes everyone believes in something even if it’s nothing. How you see the world through your unique moral lens will shape everything you are.

Family- love ‘em or hate ‘em, small or large, blood or your close tribe- everyone has relationships.  Humans need each other. Are you nurturing your clan?

Finances- the dreaded “b” word ( budget), money or lack of it. Like politics or relig...

We have a SPECIAL announcement and we are super psyched to have you in our secret!  Not only are we over the moon excited about our latest adventure, we are walking on air now that we can share it with the rest of the world.

Even our FAMILY doesn’t know what we are putting out into the Podcast space. This is gonna be a blast!

As risk takers we decided to change our trajectory from BURNOUT to BURN UP!!

This week is another Doctales with Cocktails and…..today we call BS on ourselves.

We have done some really dumb stuff over the years and now we are laughing and sharing a FEW of the ridiculousness of our medical past.

We have experienced exploding sebaceous cysts causing “something about May”, exploding speculum shrapnel and hydration on the legislature lawn.

Tim has even been paid in whiskey for weekend vasectomies!  We confess we like our hillbilly medical experience which involves some vet medicine and NASCAR driving to emergencies.

Biggest regrets: May’s 9 month sti...

This week we continue our interview with Ben Westhoff , author of Fentanyl Inc.

This week we hear about how he created an online persona on the dark web and managed to infiltrate a Chinese drug lab while posing as a drug dealer! Talk about immersing yourself fully into your work!

We discuss his harrowing experience and touch on where we are going with the “war on drugs”, possible options for the future, what other countries do that has worked and more.

Ben’s book details the emergence of fentanyl and other novel psychoactive substa...

We have touched on Fentanyl and the opioid epidemic. This week we interview Ben Westhoff , author of Fentanyl Inc.

Westhoff has become the go-to expert on the subject of fentanyl and new drugs. His credits include consultation with top government officials, including the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives, the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy, and the U.S. State Department. He has been a guest on  The Joe Rogan Experience  and NPR

Ben’s extensive research involved tapping into the history and stories of  various chemists, drug makers, drug dealers and c...

This is a very somber, serious and sad story about the human element in our story about the Opioid crisis. We had the honor of interviewing our friends for this podcast so they could share their story. Just months ago, they lost their teenage son, Tanner. A scant amount of Fentanyl sprayed on a tablet of Tylenol took his life. 

Everyone in the medical profession as well as the community at large will have their eyes wide opened to how this new crisis is overtaking our country. 

As physicians, Tim and I have huge remorse fo...

Woohoo, our second Doctales episode is full of cheeky fun and some of the stuff that makes us laugh. Mays doing a wine tasting while Tim is imbibing in the green fairy, stay tuned.

So many funny things we hear patients say and do over the years! We keep this episode HIPPA compliant and share some of the crap we have seen and heard. We all know that patients are obsessed with taking their temperature, knowing their “normal temperature’ and upset if we challenge them on it.

From “my kidneys hurt” to “my fever is normally 9...

Move over Percocet, did you know that Fentanyl is the new kid in town?

Things have gotten MUCH, MUCH worse with the emergence of Fentanyl and other synthetic psychotropic agents hitting the streets.

This show continues on from where we left off on a previous episode discussing the rise of the Opioid epidemic.

We discuss the exponential rise in fatalities,  international involvement,  general naivety to the problem and the difficulty in trying to curb this unprecedented and dangerous drug phenomenon. 

As a reminder today’s sponsor is the Alpha Coaching Experience.  Act no...

Like it or not, telehealth has fully arrived!  As Covid grappled the world, 2020  saw a dramatic rise in the implementation of telehealth services. 

How has telehealth impacted you? Do you love it or hate it? We discuss the pros and cons for both physicians and patients, and share some laughs about some of our personal struggles with it.

Patients: did you know there are some key vital signs and pre-visit things you can do to make your visit better?  For instance, as much as we like your newly minted eyebrows, we prefer to see your whol...

In this episode, Tim and May discuss the single biggest mistake in the history of Medicine. The overprescribing of opioids started with a five sentence letter to the New England Journal of Medicine in 1980. This brief letter was quoted 608 times in Medical literature, espousing the safety of opiate prescribing.

We dive into the history of opiates, opiate prescribing and drug abuse in general. We talk about how a simple misinterpretation of data caused the medical establishment, big pharma and government regulators to get it wrong and kill hundreds of thousands. 

This peer pressure and group t...

In our first cocktails with doctales segment, we're discussing a certain topic that gives us a reason to drink… Covidiots. We're handing out awards for the dumbest Covidiots that made us laugh or just stunned us. 

Everyone is trying to with what information we know. There has been good advice, bad advice, and wrong advice, so why not try to find some grace and humor out of this situation we’re in?

We’re not just talking about people who call masks tyranny! Dr. Faucci warned early on in the pandemic that letting people wear masks i...

When you think about going into medicine, do you think about why you chose the field? Do you look back and wonder, “I thought medicine would be so much different than I know it to be now?” 

To choose a subspecialty today, you have to have an immense amount of confidence in the unknown.  Tim talks about how this can become an undercurrent of self-doubt. 

It takes a ton of digging deep and honing in on what you do well, knowing what you want to do with your life in a general sense, and recognizing the ine...

Looking back on our medical journey, Tim and I reflect on what brought us to Medicine. Tim comes from a medical family where his father was an independent GP, doing OB/anesthesia/call/everything. He understood pretty early on that medicine wouldn’t be an easy path. 

I got the science bug early on but didn’t come from a family of doctors, or anyone with a college education. The pressure was real, though. I remember blowing up stuff in my parent’s basement and loving science in general. Plus, I just really enjoyed medicine on TV and so...

You knew we would kickoff with Covid right?! Due to the timing of the pandemic and requests from friends, we knew we had to talk about COVID-19 vaccines. We are keeping it simple and talking about normal stuff like common misconceptions, how the vaccine works and what are their side effects? Who do we think should get the shot?  And, who should not. 

What we know right now is that there are 5 types of vaccines that made it into phase 3 trials but 3 are really important to pay attention to. One called the mRNA (Messenger RNA) is absolutely fa...

Both Tim and I are urgent care physicians who realized that our patients needed a raw discussion on what's happening in medicine. We are always having fun talks around our work so we figured the rest of the world would like to hear it too. 

We pride ourselves on giving you a transparent, real take on medicine especially with so much misinformation being tossed around about COVID-19. 

Join the real, fun chat with patients AND doctors as we challenge the dialogue and possibly have a cocktail or two in the process.
