The Weight Loss Resolution

With the long holiday weekend coming to a close (at least for me), I'm looking at the prospect of returning to work tomorrow. Being four days into the new year tomorrow, probably one of the most common questions I get asked is the "magic" of losing weight fast. In addition, it's probably no coincidence that the reality show "The Biggest Loser" is making it's premiere for its latest season in the US on the January 5th, 2010.

I had the privilege of being asked by our local TV station here to talk about the dreaded "Weight Loss New Year's Resolution" that many people make but few people actually stick to (including myself - yeesh). I admit that I don't give the magic solution in either of these videos (above video link & below video link). However, I hope to give people at least some things to think about as they start the beginning of this year on the road to better health...

Show 138 Wrap-up



Had a great time with Doctor Anonymous Show 138 tonight! I talked about some news stories (including Ohio State's win at the 2010 Rose Bowl) and midway through the show, our good friend Ben called in to chat. In addition, THE Burl checked in. And, to my pleasant surprise, BTR personality Dr. Blogstein called into the show to say hello - that is until his cell phone battery died (or so he said). All in all, not a bad show tonight. (also check out the video above which is the opening 5 minutes to the show)

Show 137 Wrap-up: New Year's Eve 2009


I have never done a New Year's Eve show before. And, I have to admit that this was a great experience. Not only was I live on the air at midnight for the eastern time zone, I was also on the air live for midnight for the central time zone as well. It looked a lot more dramatic on TV, but in the video below, is my lack of enthusiasm as midnight struck in the eastern time zone. Also on the show with me at this time is our good friend FriggenBenQ.

If you have never listened to my internet radio show before, I encourage you to listen to the archived show in the player above.

Thanks as always for your support of the website and for the show! Happy New Year!

Show 136 Wrap-up



Who would ever do a live internet radio show on the day after Christmas? Well, I did. Can you believe that? On Doctor Anonymous Show 136, I talked about some news stories from this past week, about December 26th being Boxing Day, and about my holiday week. In addition, good friend of the show Kim called in to hang out for the end of the show. Thanks so much!

Show 135 Wrap-up



For Doctor Anonymous Show 135, I welcomed back our good friend Kat to the show. Kat is the host of the BlogTalkRadio show called "Faith Ignited." During show 135, we talked a lot about the Christmas holiday, some news stories, and what some things that she's been doing lately.

Show 134 Wrap-up



Show 134 was a "Saturday Night with Dr. A" show. I talked about just a few medical/health related news stories. Then, I went into some "not so serious" news stories which also had some audio clips associated with them. I again issued my "BlogTalkRadio Santa Hat Host Challenge" which you will see below. It was silly, but I thought it was funny.


As always, you can listen to Show 134 on the player above. Or, if you like, you can download the show and listen anytime by clicking here. Just to let everyone know, there will be no Thursday Night show this week as I will be at a Christmas/Holiday party having a good time. However, my next show will be Saturday night! Who knows what will happen then. Thanks for your support of the show and I hope your Holiday season is going well!

Show 133 Wrap-up



Thanks so much to Trauma Junkie, Scott, and Natalie for calling into Dr. A Show 133 and talking about their new podcast project called "GenMed." The idea started from a skype call and has evolved - to this point - to a newly launched GenMed Show Website. The first podcast is coming soon. To read more about what this podcast is about, I encourage you to read the post called "Announcing GenMed" on the blog "Surviving RT School."

The show was really weird in that my skype connection broke off a couple of times during the interview. And, I thought that I extended the show, but things cut off live right at 90 minutes. The conversation only carried on for another few minutes after I realized that we were not broadcasting live. As always, you can listen to the show on the player above.

Dr. A Show Tonight: Trauma Junkie


BlogTalkRadio Listen Live

Thursday, December 10th, 2009 at 9pm ET

My guest for this week's show is a returning guest. Our good friend Trauma Junkie returns to the show. You may remember him from Dr. A Show 84 from back in March. (You can listen to that show in the player below or you can download that show by clicking here).

TJ is returning to Dr. A Show 133 to talk about an exciting new project that he is involved with entitled "GenMed:"
GenMed is podcast geared toward young health care professionals and students. We call it Generation Medicine because we are the "young blood" in the field and we're hoping to improve and revamp the entire system, while helping people in our age group at the same time. Basically, we'll be tackling hot issues and conflicts with our own viewpoints, and using the current research.
If you are new to the Dr. A Show, I encourage you to catch us live. There is a great chat room that also goes on. You can even see my shining face on the webcam. In addition, you can call into the show to say hello. Can't catch us live? That's ok. You can listen anytime after the show as it is saved as a podcast so you can listen anytime!

Show 132 Wrap-up



Sorry this is so late being posted. Doctor Anonymous Show 132 went pretty well - except that I wasn't able to get all the Christmas songs uploaded to the site. I just had the barking dogs with jingle bells - yeesh! For the first part of the show, I talked about some of the current event health/medicine stories of the week.

Then, for the 2nd half of the show, I talked about some not-so-serious news stories from the week. Our good friend "airplane" from the chat room called into the show to talk (thanks so much for calling in).
