Introducing: The Nocturnists+

We're excited to be launching The Nocturnists+, a subscriber-only feed featuring a special monthly episode called The Nocturnists After Hours, as well as discounted rates on our awesome new merch.

The Nocturnists After Hours episodes are more intimate and unstructured—a space where I step away from formal interviews to join executive producer Ali Block for casual, open conversations about medicine, culture, and our personal journeys.

For our first episode, Ali and I talk about what it means to be "the doctor" in your family—the one people call when something feels off, when a diagnosis doesn't sit right, or when things start to fall apart.

It's a role that comes with a strange mix of pride and pressure. There are moments where you can help in meaningful ways. And moments where all that knowledge just makes things harder.

We found ourselves circling a question that doesn't have a clean answer: when do you step in, and when do you let go?

We're really excited about this new corner of our community, and we'd love your input as it takes shape—especially around the kinds of conversations you'd like to hear, whether Q&As, deep dives into philosophical questions related to healthcare, or explorations of trending medical stories.

Today, we're sharing a short teaser of our first After Hours episode. The full episode is out now in our subscriber feed, with new ones dropping the second Tuesday of every month. Subscriptions start at just $10/month, and for the next two weeks, we're offering 10% off for early subscribers.

We invite you to learn more or subscribe at: thenocturnists.org/plus
