What starts as laughter over some of the most unhinged medical stories imaginable—think penis surgery in a Toyota Corolla and Ozempic for cats—slowly evolves into something deeper. Tim and May connect the dots between modern medicine, fear-based decision making, and the loss of personal responsibility, both in healthcare and in life.They revisit insights from their conversation with Dr. Peter McCullough on long COVID and real-world patient outcomes, then land the episode with a powerful reflection on fear versus love, faith, and why “safe” is an illusion. As always, it’s irreverent, honest, thoughtful—and a reminder that medicine (and life) works best when we keep it BS free.GET SOCIAL WITH US!🎧 Subscribe to BS Free MD for unfiltered insights on medicine, wellness, and everything in between. 💬 Got thoughts or questions?

In this intimate 16-minute ride, Drs. May and Tim Hindmarsh lean into an idea most of us feel but rarely articulate: fun isn’t frivolous — it’s foundational. What begins as a simple question about where “fun” fits into a packed life as physicians transforms into a soulful exploration of what makes us feel alive. Together, they trace joy from the mundane (a shared laugh while doing dishes) to the life-altering (rediscovering passion after hardship), arguing that fun is nourishment for the soul, not just momentary pleasure. They wrestle with the age-old trade-off of time for money, challenge the notion that productivity always trumps play, and remind each other (and us) that laughter, joy, and meaningful connection are not extras — they are essential ingredients for a well-lived life. By episode’s end, what started as a truth bomb becomes a gentle invitation: to chase fun not as escape, but as a compass leading toward a richer, more vibrant existence.GET SOCIAL WITH US!🎧 Subscribe to BS Free MD for unfiltered insights on medicine, wellness, and everything in between. 💬 Got thoughts or questions?

Dr. Peter McCullough, a practicing cardiologist and expert in post-COVID complications, discusses alarming long-term effects of COVID and vaccination, including clotting and immune issues.

They explore the significance of spike protein testing and the complexities of antibody responses. McCullough also critiques common treatments and emphasizes innovative detox strategies for recovery.

This Doctales with Cocktails episode veers from absurd to deadly serious—and back again. What starts with Kim Kardashian’s “Ultimate Bush” spirals into a surprisingly historical discussion of pubic wigs, cultural aesthetics, and performative sexuality. From there, the tone shifts hard as a bombshell FDA letter challenges the foundations of modern vaccine approval, exposing reliance on surrogate endpoints, weak evidence, and ignored harms—especially in children.The episode then detonates another cultural landmine: the outrage over the word retarded. The conversation digs into how language becomes weaponized, how offense is outsourced, and why words that once described reality are now treated as moral crimes. The show closes on a rare reflective note—contrasting anger-driven discourse with joy, purpose, and meaning—highlighted by the story of a man who skied joyfully for nearly a century. GET SOCIAL WITH US!🎧 Subscribe to BS Free MD for unfiltered insights on medicine, wellness, and everything in between. 💬 Got thoughts or questions?
