Welcome to the very first episode of Pop Culture and Penicillin! For many people, health is a mysterious phenomenon that they don’t feel confident talking about. The primary goal of our conversations will be to make you realize that it is possible to get a grip on health and to exercise greater control over your own wellbeing. On this episode, we talk about John Singleton and his contributions to the film industry and careers of many actors of color. Then we dive into our medical topic for today – strokes or brain attacks. John Singleton suffered a massive stroke and we discuss the two main types, the risk factors and the symptoms to be on the lookout for. Be sure to join us for this kickoff conversation!
