  • Resumen

  • "Knock Knock, Hi! with the Glaucomfleckens" dives into the highs, lows, and WTFs of healthcare. Whether you're in the medical field, live with a healthcare worker, or broke your arm once and are still paying off your medical bills, this is a must-listen. Join Will and Kristin Flanary (aka the Glaucomfleckens) for candid chats with leading healthcare voices like Dr. Mike and Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy. Discover fun facts about eyeballs, hear relatable stories from medical training, and sneak a peek into the U.S. health insurance industry (spoiler alert: it's not great!). We'll share our own perspectives of being a patient or family member experiencing the healthcare system. And, of course, we explore the question on everyone's minds: "Why has Dr. Glaucomflecken never had his eyes dilated?" Combining science with humor and a dash of snark, we unpack the human side of healthcare.

  • Knock Knock Eye: The Four Times I Cried As A Doctor (So Far)

    Knock Knock Eye: The Four Times I Cried As A Doctor (So Far)
    Apr 24 2025
    I don’t cry often. Not because I’m especially tough—more because medicine does a pretty good job training that out of you. But sometimes? It happens. In this episode, I walk through four times I cried as a doctor (yes, one of them involves Rugrats), what led up to those moments, and what came after. There’s also a side quest into diagnosing The Sandlot’s Mr. Myrtle, a few shoutouts to comment-section philosophers, and some thoughts on whether it’s even worth debating people who think vaccines contain nanobots. So yeah, a little bit of everything. Takeaways: Some Stories Stay with You. Some Break You Open. A patient. A family. A sound you can’t unhear. It was week two of med school rotations, and I still think about it 15 years later. Residency Will Humble You—Sometimes Publicly. One attending. Two missed steps. Twenty minutes of educational humiliation in front of the entire department. I held it together… until I didn’t. What’s Worse Than Getting Diagnosed with Cancer Again? Getting that news and then getting paged for a bilateral open globe trauma five minutes later. Yep, that happened. The Rugrats Made Me Cry. Between Patients. In Clinic. If you don’t tear up when Chucky says, “She’s in the flowers,” you might already be in the flowers. I'm just saying. I Diagnosed the Blind Guy in The Sandlot. Of Course I Did. Was it glaucoma? Optic nerve trauma? A bizarre case of Hollywood medicine? Yes. Also: yes, my children left the room. — To Get Tickets to Wife & Death: You can visit Glaucomflecken.com/live We want to hear YOUR stories (and medical puns)!

  • Glauc Talk: Fixing Healthcare One Smell at a Time

    Glauc Talk: Fixing Healthcare One Smell at a Time
    Apr 22 2025
    So this episode started with a Reddit post about a guy who thinks his poop smells like his patients’ poop... and I wish I could say it gets less weird from there, but no—it really doesn’t. Kristin and I spiral into the science (and total lack of science) behind smell memory, hospital food, and whether we’re all just walking around slowly absorbing our work environments. Spoiler: if you're in ophthalmology, congrats—you’re mostly scent-neutral. Unless you've ever used a slit lamp on someone mid-GI crisis. I also revisit 30 Days of Healthcare and question a few of my creative choices (including a weird little sketch about fixing healthcare with just vibes and prior auths). And because I clearly haven’t suffered enough, we open up the brand new First Aid for Step 1 (2025 edition) and test how much I remember from med school. It’s… not great. Takeaways: There’s a Reddit post you can’t unread—and now we all have Deja P. We may be slowly absorbing our patients… through scent. Kristin puts Will’s med school knowledge to the test. It does not go well. Sneeze guards: good for spit, better for smell trauma. We’re trying to make medical education funny again. Starting with capitation. And poop. — To Get Tickets to Wife & Death: You can visit Glaucomflecken.com/live We want to hear YOUR stories (and medical puns)!

  • Knock Knock Eye: The Real Horror in Nosferatu? His Corneas

    Knock Knock Eye: The Real Horror in Nosferatu? His Corneas
    Apr 17 2025
    What do 19th-century vampires, corneal scarring, and rampant chlamydia have in common? Possibly more than you'd think. I Nosferatu and spiraled (in a good way) into diagnosing one of film’s creepiest figures using real ophthalmology. Along the way, I breaks down the leading causes of corneal blindness, unpack the wild world of corneal transplants, and imagine what kind of eye care Nosferartu might’ve needed in his castle. Takeaways: He May Be Immortal, But His Corneas Are Not: Nosferatu’s cloudy eyes raise some very real medical questions—and Dr. Flanary can’t let it go. Not All Corneal Scarring Comes from Contact Lenses: What causes corneal blindness around the world might surprise you… and gross you out a little. There’s a Toothpick-Sized Transplant That Can Change Lives: Modern corneal transplant technology has gotten weirdly precise—and impressively effective. PBM Reform Might Finally Be Moving… a Little: A glimpse of progress in the middleman mess, with state-level action heating up. If You Watch Horror with a Doctor… Be Prepared for Diagnoses: Don’t expect a relaxing movie night. Expect theories, pathologies, and a bit of eye-rolling.

my favorite medical (comedy) podcast!

There are a lot of medical influencers out there but Dr. Glauc is the best. Episodes are interesting and informative, with a good balance of serious and lighthearted conversations and topics. The levity and the love of medicine really shines and is so needed in this time of the moral depravity of corporate healthcare, insurance tyranny, and private equity nastiness.

I can't say enough good things about this podcast. I've been following Dr. G for a while but deleted my YouTube account, so I am glad I can continue to listen on Audible! Listening to the silly banter between Dr. G and Lady G at the beginning of the episodes is very sweet and comforting. I love the solo episodes and the ones with guests. Highly recommend 10/10!
