Abdominal pain or Adominal pain

Three ask me anything questions: 1. I've always been curious if Blake says the B after the A in abdominal pain 2. Is there a way to synchronize the audio during each pod because I've noticed the audio levels vary quite a bit and sometimes it's a bit hard to understand during drives in the car. 3. How can I get involved with pods or content creation? Would like to contribute as a new attending learning soooooo much about community medicine after training in an ivory tower :)
