There is also a PodCast version of every show available on iTunes and Spotify as well as the other usual podcast sources. PodChatLive have developed a big following that is growing. The show is seen as one of the ways by which podiatrists will get free ongoing education credits.

In the very first stream which started everything, it turned out entirely unplanned and a unexpected move to make. One of the hosts, Craig Payne from Melbourne found himself in England for two days whilst on the way back home from conferences in Spain and Portugal with not a lot to do. Whilst in the UK he dropped in at Ian Griffith’s house and while discussing after dinner they realised neither of them had ever streamed a Facebook Live so they decided to try it and find out what goes on. They did a livestream discussion from Ian’s house. Inspite of the really “amateur” and thoroughly “unrehearsed” nature of the live stream, it was met with amazingly good comments and they got some deep contemplating questions during the live. So they started questioning if there was some mileage in performing a thing like this with greater regularity. And therefore a regular show was developed to in due course be called, PodChatLive. In this PodChatLive, Craig talks about and reveals which was the research paper that changed his beliefs the most, plus they chat about junk science, pseudoscience, research translation. Other topics come up were concerns on what is incorrect with cuboid syndrome – we know it whenever we view it, but its hard to define. Additionally, they talked about Craig’s most liked airport to eat breakfast at.
