Janelle's recommended podcasts for learners/studying from 2017

Physician Assistant Exam Review - goes through the entire Blueprint by subject. He rambles, but content is good.

Physician Assistant Boards Podcast - short podcasts (10-20mins) that cover one topic at a time.

EM Basic - produced by a ER residency program. Very instructional. Takes you through the workups for chief complaints (e.g. abdominal pain, chest pain, syncope, headache, DKA, eye complaints, etc...)

CRACKcast - produced by a group of ER residents in Canada. Follows a classic EM textbook (Rosen's ) and takes you through the workup for CCs. Very good for studying.

PedsCases - produced by a pediatric residency program in Canada. Again, very instructional. Presents diseases by Epidemiology/Pathophysiology/Signs/Symptoms/Differential/Testing/Treatment format. I know pediatrics module isn't until summer, but you can find some good otitis media, childhood exanthema, kawasaki, GI, diabetes, murmur, ADHD, autism, croup, bronchiolitis material here.

Surgery 101 - produced by a surg residency. Good instructional resource for GI diseases.

EMCrit - Emergency Medicine/Critical Care topics. More in depth than what we need to know for our tests, but conversations are entertaining... with a bit of dirty ER humor. Dr. Scott Weignert makes me laugh.

ER Cast - Just as entertaining as EMCrit, but probably better for studying. Might i suggest the episode, The Art of the Chemical Takedown.

Hospital and Internal Medicine Podcast - this is a good resource for Pulmonary, Renal, Hematology

Anatomy for Emergency Medicine - a VIDEO podcast that is useful for orthopedic injuries. Maybe reserve this one for straight, boring sections of interstate:).
