400th Episode Celebration: Ask Us Anything, Hot Ones-style

Lynn Flint and Anne Kelly join as hosts in a reprise of last year's ask us anything format. Thank you for sending in your terrific questions! Lynn and Anne condensed them to about 20, and we ran through them rather rapid fire. Also on fire? Our mouths. As with our 300th episode, we did this Hot Ones-style . Every few questions, we had to eat a chicken wing slathered in hot sauce. The hot sauces got progressively hotter, though as we discovered, the ordering may have been a littttttle bit off. Still, by the time we hit the really hot ones, our mouths were on fire, we were blowing our noses, gulping down milk, and terrified of what the next hot wing would bring… We covered so much in this podcast, including: Coffee or tea? What jokes do you make with patients? Where do we see ageism? Why are we still advocating for advance care planning? Concerns about expansion of medical aid in dying Should doctors reveal that they're using AI in clinical care (thanks for the question mom!) The future of geriatrics and palliative care What we'd do differently about the podcast if we could start over, or what we could do that is new going forward. Surprises in terms of who is listening, our audience. Ideas for others to build community as we do at GeriPal Influence of our own spirituality and religion on our clinical practice Lasting practice changes from prior podcasts, or from Covid experience Why PC in the ED hasn't taken off And more! Looking back on 10 years and 400 podcasts, Eric and I are filled with gratitude for you, dear listeners. You sustain us. You keep us going. Please stay involved, send us messages about show ideas, and introduce yourself to us at national meetings. Thank you! -Alex Smith
