The Short Coat

Dylan Todd, Marc Toral, Eric Wilson are on hand to give advice to caller Todd, who is just beginning his journey from community college to medical school. Is the advice we give any good? Well, we tried, and that’s all that counts. Also, we discuss researchers’ discovery that it’s possible to cause hallucinations just by staring into someone else’s eyes for 10 minutes. Try it! Don’t be weird, get permission first; maybe even start by introducing yourself.

Also, it’s time to brush up on your cyber-security skillz, as a group demos how it might be possible to hack pacemakers and such. And Dr. Oz returns after a listening tour of America in which he sought feedback on his brand of infotainment. Been a rough year for our boy, but can he come out smelling like a ratings rose?
