About This Podcast

2 Paeds in a Pod is a clinical paediatrics podcast exploring the decisions, dilemmas, and systems that shape everyday practice. While rooted in paediatric emergency medicine, the conversations range across the breadth of paediatrics — from acute presentations and diagnostic uncertainty to wider service design, professional development, and the evolving evidence base. Each episode brings structured discussion to real-world clinical questions. Alongside practical case-based reflection, we highlight research that has caught our eye and consider how emerging evidence should — or should not — influence frontline care. This podcast is for paediatric consultants, trainees, advanced practitioners, and clinicians who want thoughtful, evidence-aware conversation grounded in the realities of modern practice. This podcast is for medical education purposes only and should not replace advice you have received from a medical practitioner.
