Recent Reviews
  • Emmeceede
    Talk Evidence is great
    Some of the podcast episodes don’t strongly appeal to me, perhaps because I’m not a doctor, but I still think the episodes are of great quality and cover important topics. I particularly enjoy the Talk Evidence series.

    General Practitioner Nashville, TN

    John Ioannidis
    This is an extremely well done discussion. I was expecting another BMJ teardown of the US with a liberal-socialist bias, but got a well-reasoned, thoughtful presentation by an extremely brigt man. Dr. Ioannidis is a wonder.
