No it isn't. It is a 2 hour long podcast repeatedly interrupted by ads. 
This podcast like podcasts in general has all the earmarks of a crank 
session for shutaways. Nothing can be learned from a podcast because it 
is improvised speech. If the young doc had anything worthwhile to say, 
he would have sat down and wrote it out.

Scientific findings since antiquity going back to Hippocratic medical 
writings are conveyed by the pen. Oral presentations are as it were 
written in water.

Take a look at this page

- and you will see that medical science has always been conveyed in 
writing, not orally in podcasts.
