ER Doc Advisor - Financial Planning & Taxes for Emergency Physicians

EP 272: What Our Most Popular Episodes Say About ER Docs

As we’ve entered a new year, we wanted to pause and reflect on what’s actually resonated most with you over time. After five years of producing this podcast, the data tells an interesting story about which topics consistently draw attention — and which ones quietly don’t.

This episode is less about specific advice and more about patterns, preferences, and how that shapes what we focus on moving forward. It’s a look behind the scenes as we set the direction for the year ahead.

Topics Discussed   

  • What five years of listener data reveals about ER doctors’ financial priorities.
  • Why tax structure decisions like W-2 vs. 1099 dominate engagement.
  • The consistent pull of big-ticket financial choices and career transitions.
  • How broad relevance often wins over niche but impactful topics.
  • Why investment and insurance episodes matter, even when they attract fewer listens.
  • The tension between financial necessity and audience attention.
  • How listener patterns are shaping the podcast’s focus in the year ahead.
