"My Three Shrinks Podcast" (by Shrink Rap)

 

My Three Shrinks is a podcast by three psychiatrists, each with a different perspective.
Dinah is a private practice psychiatrist who does psychotherapy.
ClinkShrink is a forensic psychiatrist who practices in a correctional setting.
Roy is a consultation-liaison psychiatrist who practices in a general hospital doing consults on medically-admitted patients and also in the emergency department.

The podcast comes out as often as we can do them, which is usually somewhere between weekly and monthly. We do try to have specific topics, but are pretty free-wheeling, even rambling, as we discuss topics related to psychiatry, medicine, health care, practice issues, ethics, weather, bad hair, ducks, etc. We tend to be on the sarcastic and humorous side, and we spout bad puns for sport. If you are looking for something very serious, try the green journal's podcast, instead.
