Plus, personal stories of skydiving and skydiving medicine from Adam and Justin! (Need a mattress? Use our link! https://allswellhome.mvvx.net/popmed)

You'll get to hear, count down style, our top 5 movies that we recommend everyone watch at least once, and our top 5 movies that we most love to rewatch. We would love to hear feedback. Did we leave your favorites off? Reach out and let us know your own lists!

Welcome back from another break! We've learned that as life is returning more to normal, our free time is not. So we are trying to make up for lack of frequency by providing content with real Shock value! This week we discuss ECT, also known as Shock Therapy, and discuss the movies Requiem for a Dream, A Beautiful Mind, and One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest. Shock therapy may have a bad rap, but we want to keep the good raps coming, so thanks for listening and providing ...

Welcome to the episode Nick has been waiting for. We tried to make a boring old back pain episode, including a discussion about a Simpsons episode, but this thing got a little out of control. We had a special request to do a breakdown of There's Something About Mary, and while this movie has lots of back pain issues, it also has...a lot of other medical mishaps. And we pull no punches discussing them. So sit back, relax, and enjoy our newest episode - which almost need...

You thought we had done all possible environmental medicine subjects, didn't you? Altitude medicine, check. Arctic medicine, check. Deep water medicine, check. But I bet you didn't think of Space Medicine! We promise it's a thing. Just not one we know much about. But we do have fun discussing Total Recall and Apollo 13, and we think you'll have fun coming along for the ride and listening to our vacuum of knowledge on the subject!

This week we wanted to do a podcast about vaccines, and watched Doc Hollywood thinking it had a scene about vaccines. It didn't. That's what you get when you rely on google! And this is what you get this week: vaccine talk surrounding the movie "World War Z," and then just random medicine commentary about various Doc Hollywood scenes. And we don't regret it one bit.

Welcome to this reddit requested episode on Dive Medicine, from a couple of doctors that have never scuba dived and never treated complications from diving! Our subject material is James Bond's Thunderball and James Cameron's The Abyss. Things get crazy in both these films, so strap on those flippers and dive in with us!

Cinema's great excuse to party is right around the corner! And I'm not talking about Adam and Nick's birthdays, although those are here too. The Academy awards are a fun time for movie shows like ours to take a close look at this year's contenders, and past winners and losers. We took this opportunity to discuss the medicine depicted in past winners, including Unforgiven and Parasite. Then we deep dive into a discussion on which Best Picture winners were most and least...

We are back from our spring break and better than ever! This week we talk everything you never wanted to discuss about nosebleeds. Adam makes an incredible unforgettable confession. Seriously, just wait until you hear this one! We discuss the movies Lady Bird and Chronicle, and of course, Nick discusses The Office. We've missed sharing for a few weeks and are so excited to be back!

Proof that we're here to tackle the most controversial of issues, welcome to the episode where we discuss what marijuana does and doesn't do, and why movies that are all about weed are so dang funny. We break down 3 cult classics: "Dazed and Confused," "Pineapple Express," and "Friday." And Adam tells some stories, coming to you straight from legalized Oregon. You'll want to hear these.

The episode we've all been waiting for! Part two of our discussion of high altitude medicine as depicted in the movies Everest and Vertical Limit! This time we have the world's leading expert on Altitude Medicine joining the discussion, Dr N. Stuart Harris! And Dr Harris drops some bombs! Join our discussion as he casually breaks the news that he's reworking how to define and diagnose altitude sickness! Don't miss this one! Lots of exclamation points!

Get ready for a two part series on high altitude medicine in movies, where we will take you on the most amazing podcast expedition of your life! Our special guest today, Steve Pearson, has actually summitted Everest! He joins us to discuss what movies got right and wrong about the climb. This week we watched Vertical Limit, Everest, and The Man Who Skied Down Everest. We discuss how close Chris O'Donnell is to nailing what it's like to climb with a pick axe! Next week ...

Nick had to work. So what do we do? Adam and Justin talk about life and how we fell into our careers in medicine. And then we re-publish our first ever episode that we recorded before Nick joined the team. It's a little rocky, but it's also...a little rocky. Come join us for a personal deep dive and a special throwback! Then psych yourself up for next week, when we will unveil our next very special guests!

All things cold. Just what you were looking forward to this winter, right? We delve into the movie Titanic, and have a heated (or cooled) discussion about the temperature of ocean water. We also throw in an episode of Seinfeld! And a few other movies you probably haven't seen, but should see. Like Frozen (no, not THAT Frozen, the other one), and Arctic. Listen in and learn about the treatment of hypothermia, and what to do with those frozen toes.

Today is Nick's first born son's rapping debut and you are all the first to hear it! Speaking of hearing, we hope this episode brings some awareness of what it means to have adult onset hearing loss and tinnitus. This is possibly our favorite movie lineup so far. We start with Baby Driver, then discuss A Star Is Born, and finish up with Sound of Metal. If you haven't seen these three movies, put them on your list!

Want to have fun while learning about radiation medicine? We have a guest for you! Geoff Nelson is a Professor of Medical Physics and a Chernobyl expert, and helps guide us through understanding radiation through the lens of the hugely entertaining and fascinating miniseries "Chernobyl." We also discuss the excellent movie "Radioactive." Learn answers to questions like "why do radioactive things glow blue-green?" and "what would a nuclear fallout do to my skin?" and "s...
