After a long hiatus, Kyle and Allen reunite behind the mic to relaunch The Mad Nosologists—a CDI podcast that never shied away from hot takes, code wars, and a little irreverent catharsis. In this episode, they open up about why the original show ended, what’s changed since, and why now is the right time to bring it back.

Allen reflects on stepping away from the industry after personal loss, digital burnout, and the risk-aversion of healthcare culture, while Kyle shares his continued work in CDI consulting and why this podcast has always been more than just a creative outlet.

Then the duo dive headfirst into the sepsis documentation debate—can you report A41.9 without an R65 code? When did that change? And what does it all mean for clinical validation, coding guidelines, and denials?

This is The Mad Nosologists—part CDI therapy session, part nerdy nosology deep-dive. Buckle up. It’s good to be back.
