Practical Neurology Podcast

What a brilliant podcast. As a practicing Consultant Neurologist in the UK I am a regular listener. The three podcast formats are all brilliant. Editors, Editors pick and case discussions each have engaging and passionate presenters. The trainees on the case based discussions are great. I always encourage my colleagues and trainees to listen to this pod!

Fantastic podcast- educational, while being enjoyable and fun . Definitely adds a ‘good use of time’ to the longer drives one sometimes ends up doing.

Love both formats of the podcast: the editors’ choice episodes are such a great way of providing an overview of and inroad into the journal, the in-depth discussions are refreshingly easy to follow and really suit my style of learning (being talked through a topic renders it much more penetrable than simply reading the article and guides you through the most important points). As a new trainee (at a stage where it sometimes feels impossible to know everything but difficult to know what you really need to know) it is really helpful to hear experienced clinicians sort out the things really important to understand from those that are more reference points to return to in certain scenarios. It is also encouraging to hear the podcast hosts admit to certain topics/concepts being unfamiliar or different to grasp - as at this stage many topics feel this way to be and it is good to know I’m not alone. Please don’t stop producing these podcasts!

Educational podcasts can be a challenge to get right, what’s the message, what’s the tone? These authoritative and intimate conversations feel like you’re eavesdropping on the two most intelligent people that you know, discuss something that they love. Important, credible and contemporary these are hugely impressive podcasts.
