Want to keep up with the research, but also keep your sanity?
Same... that's why we're here!
Welcome to Speech Talk, a podcast for SLPs who are hungry to stay on top of the latest research but don’t have the time to read it.

It’s smart, practical, and very real. It’s also, ahem, your new favorite podcast!

About the Hosts
Emily is a medical speech-language pathologist working in SNFs and hospitals around Akron, Ohio. A mom of three, she’s long been a go-to for study guides and peer support. When she couldn’t find practical resources for SLPs in adult medical settings, she teamed up with NYU classmate Eva Johnson to create one—designed especially for clinicians juggling work, life, and caregiving. They’re figuring it out too, and happy to share the journey.
Eva is a skilled nursing SLP with a background in ESL and Romance languages. A former teacher and TA, she brings a love of clear, systems-based thinking to clinical care. She joined the podcast to keep teaching, grow as a clinician, and collaborate with her classmate Emily. A mom of two, Eva loves Shabbat dinners, still hopes to paint again someday, and brings curiosity and practical wisdom to every conversation.
