Calling all Jeff Goldblum fans! This one is for you! Except, we are talking about 1986's The Fly, and even Pittsburgh natives can agree, Jeff Goldblum's character is the worst in this movie. Don't get us wrong, we love a man who wants to change the world, but not through dangerous experiments that kills innocent animals in an unlocked apartment. Way to go Brundlefly. This movie's practical effects are fantastic, and now we know more about a fly life cycle than we ever wanted to. Watch this movie on an empty stomach! Paired with a Transfusion cocktail. Rate!

He walked away from a $750,000 golf apparel order, cried on his living room floor, and told his wife their dream was dead. Then he built a $12 million business from scratch - without knowing how to brew a single beer. Geoff Tait has one of the wildest entrepreneurial stories in golf. He started a funky golf clothing brand before Travis Matthew, Puma and Nike caught on, landed a deal with Arnold Palmer himself, and drank Kettle One with The King and Jack Nicklaus on a balcony at Augusta. Then it all fell apart. Business partner battles. Lost control. Humiliation. But here's the twist: Geoff didn't go work for someone else. He went back to teaching as a marketing professor as he built the business plan for Triple Bogey Brewing Company. No brewing experience. No investors. Just a fun name and a relentless commitment to slow, organic growth. This is a conversation about the real cost of entrepreneurship, the loneliness and exhilaration of building something from nothing, and why "better hit another" isn't just a Triple Bogey Brewing slogan - it's a life philosophy. Key takeaways in this episode with Geoff that you will discover: Losing control of your company is a nightmare - but losing your values is worse Geoff learned the hard way that scaling too fast with the wrong partners can cost you everything. Now he grows organically, keeps full control, and says "the best investor is your customer." You don't need to be an expert. You need to surround yourself with the right people Geoff couldn't sew a button or brew a lager. But he knew how to spot talent, build trust, and let experts execute. His superpower isn't technical skill - it's knowing who to bring into the room. The golf industry rewards loyalty, not flash While big brands fight for shelf space, Geoff built Triple Bogey one golf course at a time - by showing up, delivering great customer service, and making a product people actually want to drink on a hot day. Slow, steady, and authentic won the race. Are you more of a watcher than a listener? Then check out our extended bonus segment with Geoff on The ModGolf YouTube channel. Click on this link or the image below to watch. Three Memorable Quotes from Geoff: "I walked out of my office with a $750,000 JCPenney order on my desk that we didn't deliver. I went home and cried on the floor and had to tell my wife what happened." "If I'm going to do this, this time it's with slow growth. For the first eight years, I was putting my own money back in. I didn't want to take on partners. I wanted to keep this thing in my complete control." "It's a lonely world being an entrepreneur. There are sleepless nights where you're waking up trying to figure out how you're going to tackle the next step. But that's the fun of it. Even if you get pits in your stomach, you just gotta keep going."

If you've ever said “We'll just set up a walking blood bank when we need it,” this episode will make you rethink everything. Dennis and Andrew Fisher drop straight fire on how to actually build, stock, train, and run a real walking blood bank on a FOB, Firebase, or any austere base — not just theory, but the exact steps special operators and conventional medics are using right now to save lives when the next mass casualty hits.No fluff. No “somebody else will handle it.” Just battle-tested, practical guidance on turning your team (and the units around you) into a living blood bank that can deliver fresh whole blood in under 30 minutes.Key Takeaways You Can Use TomorrowPre-type every donor (especially O's) and keep the roster with key leaders and medics — Medpros + secondary confirmation beats dog tags every time.Distribute kits across the team so one casualty doesn't wipe out all your supplies.Practice full collections with non-medics — they can (and will) be your force multipliers.Have donor questionnaires filled out in advance for anyone outside your unit; do Eldon cards in calm conditions, never under fire.Plan for 20–30 minutes from alert to transfusion — that window dictates how long you have to bridge with other resuscitation tools.Principles over perfection: good stick + patent line + practiced team beats fancy equipment every single time.Chapters00:00 – Welcome & Why Most Walking Blood Banks Stay TheoreticalThe dangerous gap between “we have a plan” and actually practicing it.02:30 – Preferred Blood & ABO Typing Your Entire ForceLow-titer O whole blood, Medpros screening, lab vs. Eldon cards, and why you double-type.08:45 – Eldon Cards: When They Work (and When They Don't)Calm pre-mission testing vs. chaos — real talk on reliability.13:20 – Supplies & Logistics: Bags, Kits, Refrigeration & Cold ChainFenwal vs. Terumo, how many kits to order, and smart storage hacks.19:10 – Point-of-Injury Kits & Load DistributionWhat medics carry, what teammates carry under plates, and spreading risk.24:40 – IV Technique, Saline Locks & Point-of-Care TestingWhy 18-gauge + PRN adapter wins, donor screening, and host-nation considerations.31:15 – Donor Questionnaires & Pre-ScreeningWhen to use them, multilingual options, and why you do this before the fight.35:50 – Selling It to Commanders & Multi-Unit CoordinationRisk-benefit talk that actually works: mutual support, 100+ years of history, and 10,000+ units transfused.41:20 – Real Timelines: 20–30 Minutes from Call to TransfusionTraining goals, the 15-minute bag-fill rule, and why practice beats classroom speed.47:30 – Closing Principles & Final ThoughtsForce multiplication, non-medics stepping up, and adapting under pressure.Whether you're ODA, Ranger, conventional, or just preparing for the next deployment — this is the episode that turns “we should do a walking blood bank” into “here's exactly how we're doing it.”For more content, go to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.prolongedfieldcare.org⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Consider supporting us: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠patreon.com/ProlongedFieldCareCollective⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.lobocoffeeco.com/product-page/prolonged-field-care⁠

Send us Fan MailThe transfusion threshold consensus is here — but practice hasn't fully caught up. In the second episode of On with VON, Ben and Daphna sit down with Dr. Roger Soll and Dr. Ravi Patel to extend the conversation from the Vermont Oxford Network Grand Rounds on evidence to practice for transfusion thresholds.The core finding across trials is consistent: lower thresholds for both packed red blood cells and platelets appear safe. The guidelines are freely available in JAMA Network Open and actionable — 11, 10, 9 grams per deciliter across the first three weeks for infants on respiratory support. So why hasn't practice shifted uniformly?The group works through the populations the trials didn't fully capture — hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy, the most premature infants, and babies in the first week of life when intraventricular hemorrhage risk peaks. On NEC and feeding during transfusion: the data may surprise you. On transfusion volume and infusion duration: an underappreciated variable, particularly for platelets.The episode closes with practical guidance on implementing transfusion guidelines at the unit level — who needs to be in the room, how informatics tools can support decision-making, and why understanding protocol deviations matters as much as the guidelines themselves.Support the showAs always, feel free to send us questions, comments, or suggestions to our email: nicupodcast@gmail.com.

A minority of patients requiring blood transfusions are increasingly requesting ‘unvaccinated' blood in the United States, per a new report published in the journal Transfusion. Our studio guest today, genito-urinary consultant Vanessa Apea, explains how this can lead to potentially dangerous delays and higher risks.Presenter Claudia Hammond speaks to Dr Angela Wu, from the Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine and Oxford Tobacco Addiction Group at the University of Oxford, about a new overview of the best available evidence worldwide for smoking cessation. The study, published in the journal Addiction, has found that nicotine‑containing e‑cigarettes appear to be more effective for stopping people smoking than other interventions.We hear how metabolic liver disease could affect nearly 1.8 billion people by 2050, according to new research published in The Lancet Gastroenterology & Hepatology journal. The growing number of cases means that many people are at risk of developing serious complications, however, the study also found that although more people are developing the disease, the overall impact on health has remained stable due to advances in treatment and care.We also hear from BBC World Service reporter Sen Nguyen in Vietnam as Hanoi plans to pilot a new low-emission zone from July to tackle air pollution. We hear what the proposed changes are and with the prevalence of diesel motorbikes in the city, how prepared are residents, workers and businesses for this change?And Claudia and Vanessa discuss whether living with friends may quietly be altering your gut bacteria, following new research published in the journal Molecular Ecology.Presenter: Claudia Hammond Producer: Jonathan Blackwell and Hannah Robins

MAJ David Johnson, GM24 (Ancient), conducts an interview with LTC Josh Corsa, 367 Forward Resuscitative Surgical Detachment (FRSD), to discuss surgical futility and transfusion triage in LSCO post NTC Rotation 25-08.

This presentation at SOMSA'25 discusses the analysis of transfusion reactions in trauma patients, focusing on data from military settings. It highlights the importance of blood transfusions in improving survival rates, the rates of transfusion reactions, and the limitations of the current data. The conversation emphasizes the need for further research to understand the implications of transfusion reactions and improve patient outcomes.TakeawaysPatients who need massive transfusions are likely to develop reactions.The benefits of transfusions far outweigh the risks.Transfusion reaction rates are around 1%.We can't conclude causation from retrospective data.The rate of transfusion reactions was 23%.Higher rates of explosive mechanism injuries were noted.We need more data on transfusion reactions.The registry is not generating patient data points.Most reactions occurred on day one of transfusion.We need to rely on civilian counterparts for data.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Transfusion Reactions02:52 Data Analysis and Findings05:35 Limitations and Future DirectionsFor more content, go to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.prolongedfieldcare.org⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠For CME credit for this presentation, go to: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://specialoperationsmedicine.org/⁠⁠⁠⁠Consider supporting us: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠patreon.com/ProlongedFieldCareCollective⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.lobocoffeeco.com/product-page/prolonged-field-care⁠⁠⁠

In this episode of Inside the Lab, host Constantine Kanakis is joined by former ASCP president and Director of Transfusion Medicine at VCU Dr. Kimberly Sanford to discuss topics in transfusion medicine. This one-on-one conversation between two transfusion experts covers a wide variety of contemporary issues in transfusion medicine, including best practices in apheresis, logistical issues associated with pre-hospital transfusion services, and strategies for addressing blood shortages. Their conversation also touches on how to compassionately discuss problems with so-called “vaccine-negative blood” with patients in the context of recent legislation regarding this, and how transfusion experts can best ration limited blood supplies during periods of scarcity.
