Tim and May Hindmarsh dissect a headline-grabbing Parkinson’s study connecting disease risk to proximity to golf courses. They examine the study’s questionable data sources, geographic bias, and potential confounders. The conversation shifts into a wild personal tale of misadventure in the Outer Banks, where Tim recounts the perils of a grounded jet ski, unexpected survival challenges, and the flawed logic we often rely on in high-stress situations. Equal parts critique, comedy, and cautionary tale, this episode questions what we call science—and what we call safety.Our Advice!Everything in this podcast is for educational purposes only.

What this episode covers
Drs. Tim and May Hindmarsh tackle a new study linking Parkinson’s disease to living near golf courses—questioning the validity, the timeline, the funding, and the geographic limitations (hi, Minnesota). Then, Tim shares a harrowing firsthand account of getting stranded in knee-deep mud and thorny bird sanctuaries after grounding a jet ski in the Outer Banks. The conversation moves from pesticide paranoia to sunlight deprivation to the psychology of making decisions in a crisis.
