I don't know if this has ever been talked about on here but I had no idea this was out there...I just typed in "nursing" in iTunes and there are 300+ podcasts! Also in iTunes U tons of audio from lectures all across the country-including some from Yale school of nursing among other really prestigious schools. For FREE! Awesome way to "study" when you are on the go...I just worked out to a microbiology lecture :D

Anyways, check it out if you have an iPod/pad/phone...and if you find a good one post it! There are some that are better than others and I think this is relatively new so it's hard to know which ones are worth the download.

So far my favorite one is ICU rounds with Dr. Jeffrey Guy, and The Nursing Show

Oh how I wish I found this before my last semester in nsg school! :crying2:

I love Jeffrey Guy!! He has such a great variety of lectures. I wish he would put more stuff. He has an EMS Pharm podcast too.

If you need A&P help, Dr Cizadlo at St Scholastica is AWESOME. Also amusing, which helps. "Do you get it?" That'll be funny after you listen to a couple episodes. :lol:

Itunes is fantastic for learning. There are SO. MANY. podcasts out there, from beekeeping (barefoot beekeeping is great) to crazy humor (You Look Nice Today). If you want great jokes, look for Old Jews Telling Jokes. Also, TED conference video and audio is up, and there are TONS of great NPR things, like Freakonomics, Robert Krulwich on Science, and Car Talk and This American Life. You can have an entire day's worth of listening in 10 minutes if you aren't careful.

Some of the nursing shows aren't updated much if at all, but they're worth listening to. Vital Signs is a fun patho podcast, about 5-10 minutes each. I think one of the publishing houses has a series that introduces their books chapter-by-chapter so you can have a quick rundown. I'm pretty sure you can get CE credits by listening to some of the programs, too.

I have 38.7 days' worth of podcasts on my ipod. Oops. That doesn't include the 11 days of music. I think I have a problem. :lol2:

Dr. Marian Diamond at UC Berkeley has excellent anatomy podcasts. She is so interesting to listen to and has so many random "tidbits" to add to her lectures that I listened to the entire semester of podcasts -- 3 times over -- before I had even taken A&P.

The only downside is that the course is anatomy only; no physiology.
