Episode 96: Freedom House and Resilience with Chief John Moon
We had an amazing talk with Chief John Moon, (ret) of Pittsburgh EMS and Freedom House Ambulance, one of the first paramedics in the United States.
If you don’t know the story of Freedom House, you should. Before Seattle, Miami, and yes, even Squad 51, Freedom House was providing bleeding-edge care to the citizens of the Hill and greater Pittsburgh, in a world where they were not regarded as equals in emergency services or healthcare.

Dr. Haney Mallemat (@criticalcarenow) joins Dan to discuss how social media can influence medicine and how recent medical events have shined a light on CPR and bleeding control.
In a matter of a few days, the world was shocked to hear that actor Jeremy Renner had been traumatically injured while on vacation in Nevada and Buffalo Bills player Damar Hamlin experienced a cardiac arrest on the field.

Episode 93: Hanging with The EMS Avenger
If you watch TikTok, and let’s be honest, you all do; you know The EMS Avenger from his short posts on evidence-based medicine and all around being a good egg as a clinician.
Dan got to sit down with him (aka: Jimmy Apple) and got to talk about social media in EMS, likes and dislikes, and the role of social media like TikTok in making clinicians better, not just passing time while posted!
