Pilot Episode: Pharmacists in the media
Pilot Episode: Pharmacists in the media
Podcast Description
For our first episode in our new Pharmacy in the Bathtub podcast, we have chosen to take a light-hearted exploration of how pharmacists have been portrayed in the media from Shakespeare to Holby City! However, as a postgraduate clinical pharmacy team at the great University of Bath, we hope to introduce further topics in health-related areas and speak to pharmacists and other health professionals as experts in their fields. Join us on this podcast journey!
Podcast Insights
Content Themes
The podcast explores a variety of themes related to pharmacy and health, including the portrayal of pharmacists in media and global health challenges. The pilot episode discusses embarrassing media representations of pharmacists, while future topics will extend to systemic health issues and the role of pharmacists in them, exemplified by the episode with Prof. Tina Brock discussing global health systems and planetary health.

Jumping on the bandwagon of podcast creation, we offer you a range of discussions in pharmacy, some light-hearted, others in-depth topics, to explore and learn together.
Sarah Jones and Tim Rennie, who work in the postgraduate clinical pharmacy space at the great University of Bath, co-host this show and welcome guest speakers to discussions.
