Disgustingly Delectable: How Two Grad Students Created The Best Medical Podcast Out There

Erin Welsh and Erin Allmann Updyke are the creators of This Podcast Will Kill You - a disgustingly delectable show all about infectious disease. A pair of grad students studying disease ecology, their mission is to share the fascinating stories behind epidemics and weird medical mysteries with the world via podcasting. They also share an episode-themed cocktail recipe during each episode becasue, as they say, who doesn't love an excuse to have a cocktail while chatting about pus and poop?

We asked Erin and Erin to tell us the story of how they started the podcast, how their dualistic format developed, and how they taught themselves the ropes of recording a show. Check it out below.
