In this episode we describe the development process and then highlight the best available evidence, including both benefits and harms, for chronic osteoarthritis treatments.

In episode 505, James and Mike invite nephrologists Samira Farouk and Matthew Sparks to discuss the tricky issue of albuminuria – who to monitor, what to monitor and who to treat. We spend a lot of time dribbling and end up deciding that nothing is a slam dunk, so stay until the end for a real buzzer beater.

In episode 504, James and Mike invite Jen Potter back to the podcast to talk about whether or not intrauterine devices for preventing pregnancy can be used beyond the recommended duration of use. It seems one can defer IUD replacement for at least up to 12 months. Have a listen and see what you think.

In episode 502, James, Mike Kolber and Tony Nickonchuk get together to talk about the easy question (just kidding) of COVID vaccines for children and adolescents. We discuss the best evidence we could find around efficacy and adverse effects in these age groups and hopefully give enough context so that you go from murky to somewhat less cloudy as to what we know and don’t know about this topic.

James and Mike celebrate their 500th, YIKES, podcast episode. You get to hear the entire intro song (Some People) written and recorded by Pete McCormack. We talk about the history of the podcast, thank a lot of people, and talk about the key messages and the philosophy we have tried to impart over the years. We then discuss a few cases that bring all these ideas into focus. THANKS SO MUCH FOR LISTENING and going on this journey with us. We have had a blast.
