The goal of this podcast is to introduce medical students and EM interns to the very basics of emergency medicine.

This first podcast is an introduction- real short and sweet on who I am, what this podcast is, what I hope to accomplish, how to most effectively use these podcasts, and other websites and podcasts that will help you expand your knowledge.
