🎙️ Just Some Podcast Media: The Origin Story

In 2018, two guys, Ben and Tom, kept hearing the same thing: “You two are hilarious together.” So naturally, they grabbed a couple mics and turned that energy into something more than just jokes in the break room. They created Just Some Podcast for Advanced Practitioners (JSPAP) - a podcast that was educational but entertaining, because let’s be honest, healthcare education can be a soul-sucking PowerPoint set to a monotone voiceover.

This wasn’t that. This was like learning in the break room—candid, real, maybe a little salty. And people loved it.

Soon, downloads were rolling in from all 50 states, 57 countries, and every single continent (yeah, even Antarctica - shoutout to Björn).

🚀 The Expansion Begins

By 2020, it was clear this was more than a hobby. When fan-favorite guest PollyAnnamazing joined the network with her own show, Buried Pleasures, things leveled up. Just Some Podcast, LLC became Just Some Podcast Media.

PollyAnna, a board-certified NP and certified Tantrika, brought bold, necessary conversations about sexual health and body positivity to the table. Buried Pleasures quickly earned a loyal audience by being exactly what it promised: sex-positive, stigma-smashing, and earbud-worthy.

🧸 Nurse Papa Joins the Family

In 2021, the network got a little more heart. We welcomed David Metzger, RN, a pediatric oncology nurse and published author, into the fold with his show, Nurse Papa.

Through beautifully told stories of parenthood, relationships, and life beyond the bedside, David connected with listeners on a deep and vulnerable level. He’s been featured on the Today Show, published in parenting magazines, and his book Nurse Papa continues to inspire.

🔍 Then Came the Mysteries

In 2022, after a well-received live episode at Nurse PodCon, Tom and Ben launched their second show together: Will Continue to Monitor.

Unlike the wild-card energy of JSPAP, WCTM is a bit more structured, but no less gripping. The show tackles medical mysteries, creepy unsolved crimes, and strange phenomena, all through the lens of healthcare, law enforcement, and forensic backgrounds.

The result? True crime meets clinical logic.

📚 What’s Next: Books, Mentorship, and More

Now in 2025, Just Some Podcast Media is expanding again… this time beyond podcasts.

🔖 Before the Chaos: A practical planner for life, death, and the mess in between

Written by Ben, this upcoming book is a practical, no-nonsense guide to organizing your life and death. From your meds and surgeries to your will, funeral wishes, and DD214 - this isn’t a cutesy journal. It’s a North Star for your family when they’ll need it most. Because life and death happens, and you deserve a say in both.

🧠 Mentorship, Reinvented

Also on deck: a mentoring and coaching platform for nurse practitioners. Forget “training” - dogs get trained. Humans get mentored.

Ben and Tom are cooking up a system that blends real-world clinical advice, career coaching, and a bit of unhinged fun into something you actually want to learn from. More details coming soon - but it’s gonna be good.

🎧 Why JSP Media?

Because we’re not trying to be polished. We’re trying to be real.

Whether you’re a new grad NP, a parent figuring it out, a forensic junkie, or someone exploring sexuality with openness - we’ve got a mic for that. And we’re just getting started.
