Belated but sincere thank you, and congratulations, Drs. P. & H. Caldicott!
Listened to this again very recently and fwdd link to my 16 y.o. niece “interested” in medicine…
Really appreciated many aspects: mother-daughter dimension, medicine (”western” and alternative approaches), “sandstone” vs. “gum trees” universities … GREAT episode!
p.s. also loved the choice of the closing track, Soul Journey
p.p.s. someone ought to start a “If you love this planet” Facebook page : )
