Divine Intervention Episode 481: The Clutch Inclusion Bodies Podcast (for Step 1-3)
Inclusion bodies are pretty high yield to know and understand for Step 1-3. I discuss the critical ones in this podcast. There are many others but they are typically extremely low yield and the USMLEs tend to go over more relevant details of those diseases than their inclusions. I also provide some useful tips here for differentiating the ones associated with red blood cells.
Divine Intervention Episode 478: CT with contrast vs CT without contrast for the USMLEs
Knowing when to use CT with or without contrast is a conundrum many medical students have faced for ages. This podcast solidly addresses that problem and provides lots of useful integrations that should help you net some easy points on your exam. I also discuss a short life lesson at the end.

Alpha 2 receptors are tested in a surprisingly large number of contexts on all the USMLE exams. This podcast makes integrations that should help you nail these questions. I end with a short life lesson applicable to many people in medicine.
Divine Intervention Episode 471: Alpha-1 Receptors and The USMLEs (Step 1-3)
Adrenergic receptors have a weird way of showing up in many different contexts on the USMLE exams. In this podcast, I spend time breaking down alpha-1 adrenergic receptors and the many different contexts/dimensions the NBMEs choose to take with them on the USMLE exams. Pretty HY stuff here.
Divine Intervention Episode 470: Numerical Acid-Base Problems on The USMLEs (a simplified, accurate approach)
Numerical acid base problems that require picking out the exact disorder and appropriate compensation show up on essentially every USMLE exam. In this podcast, I discuss a simple, but accurate approach to correctly answering these questions from an NBME/USMLE. This is one of those podcasts you should take notes on and listen through slowly. It is not too long, but it will certainly help you score wise on your test.
