So I recently did an interview with the Curbsiders, an IM podcast, on why EM and IM sometimes have conflicts. It was a ton of fun and may be worth a listen. Here is the episode:

Hi Scott, very interested to know more about the 2% rule. Could you direct me to the statistical studies which came up with this figure?
they posted the citation on the curbsiders shownotes yesterday
hi Scott.
i am one of those docs from 1986. and i agree with you wholeheartedly.
i am so very glad you participated in their pod; i feel that it was extraordinary.
you were eloquent, and super friendly and collegial.
i need to find those books you referred to.
it seems occasionally that it’s easy to fall into that “us vs them” path, in my shop it would be “the ED docs vs the hospitalists”. but it i suspect it never has to be that way. and that the best results are attained via the opposite.
there were lots of info in the pod; i found your style of not wishing to hear anything from the ED doc (if you were the accepting doc) interesting, so that you “go in” unbiased.
also, the system 1 vs system 2, just the way we are wired differently, was a cool discussion as well.
i wonder if we can play this pod at one of our ER dept meetings where we might meet jointly with the hospitalists.
thank you
tom
thanks buddy
