60 Second Soapbox: Bafuma (IV Antibiotics), Favot (Nod and Smile), & Augustine (Medical Travel)

Posted by Sam Shaikh, DO on Feb 23, 2016

Get ready for another round of 60-Second Soapbox! Each episode, one lucky individual gets exactly 1 minute to present their rant-of-choice to the world. Any topic is on the table – clinical, academic, economic, or whatever else may interest an EM-centric audience. We carefully remix your audio to add an extra splash of drama and excitement. Even more exciting, participants get to challenge 3 of their peers to stand on a soapbox of their own!
