About this episode
The slap heard around the world has been all anyone can talk about for the last few weeks. Oscar buzz is usually before the event, but the altercation has left many discussing the evening outcomes afterwards.  According to popular opinion a slap in the face often only leads to so-called trivial injuries, however research shows  it can also lead to massive injuries such as fractures and injuries of the eardrum. So join Dr. Niket Sonpal this week for a podcast on middle ear injury. Because as Winston Churchill said, "Never let a good crisis go to waste."
