First time listener to the podcast. Like the in depth analysis. E D seems like a very convenient entity/excuse for police to use that in their report (BTW How can a human exhibit “superhuman” qualities?) If that is really a “thing,” if a person were to be exhibiting that behavior, and the police did not intervene (i.e) put a knee on the person’s neck, would the person still have died?

Met Dr Milne personally at a conference this week- he is so so personable and intelligent. What a gem and wealth of knowledge!!

Muscle relaxants A physician that cannot pronounce drug names and thinks people are statistics. No individualized medicine? A study shows if a drug works for a population, not an individual You should check the new literature on ‘the placebo effect’ because it turns out not to be what you believe it is. P.S. Methocarbamol does a decent job combined with cannabis, especially since nsaids give me mouth ulcers. P.P.S. Osteopaths (competent ones) can release that spasm completely at least 75% of the time. Not woo like placebo effect. P.P.P.S. Chiropractic is woo. Subluxations? Seriously?

Better podcasts out there for EM. Content is "meh". Listening to the host makes me really want to take his lunch money

Awesome stuff!

As a recently graduated medical student, I’m always looking for materials to explain the “why” behind the guidelines and other clinical decisions that were not very clear before. On top of that, you guys are actually fun to listen to!

Love The SGEM! It’s great to get excited about topics that anyone in any aspect of emergency medicine can find a way to grow stronger on! If you like learning with a sense of fun and play- while staying focused and exacting when it comes to evaluating what we think is right practice.. look no further!

In Emergency Medicine residency? Make this podcast a mandatory part of your training. Weekly exposure to new research. Cutting the KT window down. Critical review with enjoyable banter. Plus a weekly Keener Contest! Enjoy, you won’t regret it.

The SGEM truly takes a strong look at every paper it reviews. Its thoroughness truly brings out the best and worse in papers. This podcast will truly make you a skeptic in a positive way and you will in no doubt be entertained in the process. Great personality and a great person to work with. -Chip Lange, PA-C

Unnatural speaking rhythm drives me nuts. Slow it down and attempt a more conversational tone please.

Dr. Milne provides a somewhat irreverent, often corny, but always evidence-based, perspective on emergency medicine, with the ever present Canadian twist. This is a must listen.

This is one of the absolute best medical education podcasts available. High yield topics that are very clinically relevant. This podcast not only teaches you the take home points of a paper but how to read the literature yourself. Highly recommended.

Dr Milne and his guest skeptics break down the latest medical literature leaving us with practical applications! Awesome job!

If you're into emergency medicine and/or evidence based medicine, this is one of the best podcasts out there! Ken Milne not only makes great reviews of EM topics from an EBM stand point, but he also makes it entertaining. A must see!

One of the best podcasts out there. I have been a long time listener of EMRAP and ERCAST, and this is an excellent addition to EM podcasts. I have worked with Dr. Carpenter and can say there are very few people more versed on Evidence Based Medicine. Thanks guys!

Keep up the good work! I like these guys, and I hope you like them too! Go evidence base, or don't go at all!

As an intern, this is a great podcast to help me with knowledge translation and BEEM

As a physician myself, I appreciate the structured approach to the various clinical questions. The evidence based approach offers a solid framework for working through the problems in a logical manner. The enteraining narration and the various guest speakers keeps it interesting. This is an excellent eductational tool.

Excellent new podcast series on iTunes! From one emergency physician to another, I'm looking forward to hearing many more podcasts from "The Skeptic"!
