Eric Strong, MD is a Stanford colleague, fellow hospitalist, and fellow YouTuber. His Strong Medicine channel is an amazing example of successful free online medical education. We dive into what it takes to have an impact on social media if you’re in the medical space.

In this interview we discuss how we make videos (it’s MUCH more work than you think), the impact on academic careers, the role of haters, creator burnout and obsession with metrics, and much more.
