1 小时 21 分钟Oh, hey, it's the woman on the Swamp tour who won't stop screaming.
Yeehaw.
Alie Ward.
And we are here with your heart in your ears.
Cardiology.
Let's consider this episode a101.
It's a very basic intro to a really huge discipline.
And this is a guest I have waited months and months and months to interview.
It all started I got a note from a listener named Matthew Evan Taylor who said not only was this person a top cardiologist in the country, but he.
He also has a great radio voice and also was his dad.
I did a little research and quickly realized no other cardiologist would do.
Me and this guest, we chatted months back over the phone, and he wanted to time the episode so that it hit in February to encompass both American Heart Month and Black History Month.
But he's super busy.
He had a conference to go to in November, and then he was going to the super bowl in February.
Turns out he didn't just have a conference to go to.
He was being awarded the Clinical Research Prize at the American Heart Association's Scientific Sessions in 2024.
Oh, and the super bowl tickets.
You know, he was there as the director of Player Engagement and Education and a co investigator into the Football Players Health Study at Harvard University.
He was there working.
He is a professor and a director at the Cardiovascular Research Institute at the Morehouse School of Medicine in Atlanta.
