Ep. 24 - Stitching Kindness, US Marshall Madness, Healing with Hockey, and Crap Cakes with Dr. Goldschmidt and Blair Arbuckle

Welcome to a special episode of Everything is Local! This week, Mike and Shana shine a spotlight on the incredible work of Dr. Matt Goldschmidt, a renowned plastic surgeon and passionate do-gooder. He shares his inspiring journey of how he combines his medical expertise with a heartfelt mission to improve the lives of children with cleft palates in underserved communities around the world. Listen in as Dr. Goldschmidt discusses his nonprofit organization, Beautiful Faces, and the annual charity hockey tournament he organizes with Blair Arbuckle to fund life-changing surgeries in countries with limited medical resources. Discover the profound impact these surgeries have on not just the physical well-being of his young patients, but also their social acceptance and quality of life. We’ll also recount some enlightening personal experiences from our co-hosts' own adventures in both the passover kitchen and the unpredictability of American law enforcement. As we navigate through stories of family, faith, and compassion, you’ll find a common thread: the power of community and the ways we can all contribute to making a difference.
