Two Truths and a Lie: Electrolytes

Written By joel topf

The 2022 NSMC Internship is broken down into four rotations. One rotation is called Podcasting. There are two deliverables for that rotation:

  1. Why Nephrology, a solo essay recorded as a podcast

  2. Two Truths and a Lie, a group project that requires mixing multiple speakers, from multiple continents into a cohesive podcast.

Pod Four divided into two teams to complete the second deliverable, here is one of those teams.

Cast:

  • Raad Chowdhury

  • Nicole Shmidt

  • Srikanth Bathini

  • Sharmi Haque
