iRescueRadio 019: New Show Format, Dangers in the Dental Chair

Comments:

This episode we have a new format.  One that includes some new music, as well as some new features for the program.  Things a little bit more broken up now, with fewer topics, but more in-depth training.

In the episode, there are four main parts:

Hot Topic: This is going to be the topic of the week that can come from just about anywhere, but will mostly be medical in naturl.

Top Medical News: This is much like “Hot Topic” but will always be something medical, along with some expert training advice.

What Would You Do: A feature that plays a scenario out, and then asks what you might do in that situation, and the provides a bit of advice on what you should do.

iRescueRadio 013: Of Roses, Romance, Legionnaires, Vaccines and Autism

Comments:

This is another episode that you won’t want to miss.  We talk about buying Roses for Valentine’s Day, with a story about Dan’s first date.  It’s a lot of laughs as we then move the topic of conversation toward a chemical effect on Romance.

We then delve into Legionnaires’ Disease and Pontiac Fever for a bit.

We end the episode talking about a Court ruling that a vaccine is not to blame for autism.  This is a huge ruling with the many families that have been effected by this possible connection.  I had seen an episode of the television show Eli Stone that deals with that issue.  As it turns out, that episode caused a controversy in the medical field, as it was thought that people would be lead to believe that vaccines will lead to autism.

The episode of Eli Stone is not discussed here, but the link and the court decision are discussed at length.

iRescueRadio 012: 911 Drug Deal; Tom Daschle; Unsafe Injection Practices; Medical Mysteries

Comments:

This episode, we talk about a man who puts a 911 dispatcher on hold to buy drugs.  Not only that, but we have the audio from the phone call!  Hear the 911 call record in this episode.

We move into Tom Daschle’s withdrawal and the effect it will have on Healthcare reform.

After that we discuss unsafe injection practices that could spread HIV and other diseases.  Apparently 1 in 100 needles is re-used.  This is atrocious and should never happen.

Lastly, we delve into Medical Mysteries.  We talk about what happens when you keep your eyes open when you sneeze.  How about your funny bone?  Why is it called that and what is it really?  Are yawns really that contagious and why?  And what about laughter… is that contagious as well?  We found the answers.  Hear us talk about that in this episode!  And don’t let the bed bugs bite.
