How DermAngelo Turned Expertise Into Influence

Most healthcare creators think credibility means sounding polished, clinical, and overly serious online. Dr. Angelo Landriscina, (a.k.a Dermangelo) built one of the most recognizable dermatology brands on the internet by doing the opposite. In this episode, he shares how to turn evidence-based education into content that actually feels native to social media: from humor and cultural relevance to reaction content, platform trends, and audience psychology. He also shares how he batch creates, reacts to misinformation without losing his voice, and why med creators need to stop overthinking content before they ever hit post. If you’ve ever struggled to make educational content feel engaging, relatable, or social-first without losing credibility, this episode is for you!

Dr. Ethan Melillo: Why Pharmacists Are Social Media's Most Untapped Voice

Most people think of their pharmacist as the person behind the counter at CVS; Dr. Ethan Melilo is changing that perception one viral video at a time. In this episode, Dr. Ethan, (also known as MillennialRx on social,) shares how a single TikTok video about medications and alcohol racked up 2 million views and launched a career he never planned.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
