Teaching with “The Nocturnist”

Podcast series created by physician Emily Silverman that focuses on humanizing medical practice through healthcare workers’ storytelling. Some topics: interview with author of a book on forced sterilization, “Black Voices in Healthcare” and “Post-Roe America”. Episodes run 35-55 minutes; first 10-15 is story, the rest is wide-ranging interviews about (e.g.) why did you become a doctor? With related interview (see Farrell, 2022) could be used both to discuss storytelling as a way to address burnout, and to introduce oral history interviews.
