When the resume says: Yale, Stanford, Harvard, and Cedar Sinai as past training and education, you can usually trust the opinion as it relates to their specialty. The exception is when it relates to yourself...

Welcome to the Just Dumb Enough Podcast. A show that acknowledges no one is always an expert, by dispelling misconceptions with real experts.

My guest today is Andrew Kadar. Dr. Kadar is a fan of the show with over four decades of work as an anesthesiologist. Despite all of this he missed his own heart disease diagnosis until it nearly killed him. He's with us today to explain heart disease a bit, tell us some risk factors, and ultimately prove that his situation was not as unique as you might think. ( Www.GettingBetterDoc.Com ) ( https://a.co/d/fNLK36d will take you to: Www.Amazon.Com "Getting Better: A Doctor’s Story of Resilience, Recovery, and Renewal" )

Let's not deny our own mortality! (Jeez, that's a dark way to start a show...)

Side note, I've had multiple family members now actually require heart surgery over the years, and even a few that have passed away from untreated conditions, so I'm trying to stay very aware of my own risk. I would hope you're all doing the same, keeping yourselves in good health for a long time to come.

In other news, September is well underway, so here's the updated rankings so far:

1. The United States, taking back first place thanks to New York, Texas, and Illinois. 2. England of the United Kingdom, rocketing back up the list. 3. Australia, with Victoria now holding a small lead over Queensland. 4. Canada, with Ontario maintaining a healthy lead. 5. Ireland... tied with Ghana! What a race!

That's it for this week! Have a great week, a great weekend, and I'll see you all back here next week for another new episode!
