Superb podcast

I love it lads! Great content

Saumiyaaa K ,

One of the funniest and most informative podcasts

Both of the docs have great personalities with a lot of wisdom to offer, and they do this in a light hearted fashion which is very enjoyable to listen to. I have only discovered these podcasts recently, and I have been obsessed. There are so many things that I am finding out through these podcasts that I have never been taught at med school. You can tell that they have put a lot of thought and time into creating their content because each episode is so unique and interesting.

Keep going guys! <3
