Health Podcast Show
Are you working to reach audiences about health topics? Know this: Podcasts deliver information directly to the soft tissue between your ears while your hands are busy, but your mind is free.
That's the unique power of podcasts, and "Health Podcast Show" is here to help you harness it.
Health Podcast Show is a new series designed for professionals working across healthcare, science, and media, from content creation and advertising to patient education and clinical communication.
Look, we get it: Podcasts are everywhere, but finding what actually works in health podcasting is the real challenge. Creating content, reaching audiences, educating stakeholders, building omnichannel campaigns—each requires different strategies and tactics. Health Podcast Show features leaders showing you how.
We're starting with the speakers and sessions from the 2025 Health Podcast Summit, and continuing to showcase additional experts across content creation, advertising, education, technology, and clinical research.
Each episode delivers actionable insights to help you participate more effectively in this growing medium—from growing a show to scaling education platforms and marketing campaigns that perform.
We're working to elevate, amplify, and demystify the role of podcasts in health education and communication, with an unwavering commitment to evidence-based, human-centered, high-impact content.
Tune into Health Podcast Show, hosted by healthcare and podcast industry veteran Dan Kendall, and join the health podcast conversation.
