About this listen

A joyful take on healthy living with family physician Dr. Zorba Paster.


"When people ask me what I hope to achieve with my podcast, I sum it up in one sentence: “To help people live a full, optimistic, vibrant, happy life—reducing suffering and developing resilience so they can say, unequivocally, ‘I’m here.’

I’ve spent 35 years hosting my nationally-syndicated public radio show, Zorba Paster On Your Health, and it’s been an incredible journey sparking thoughtful, engaging conversations about health and wellness—without the clutter, chatter, or noise.


With more than 45 years as a family physician, my experience as one of the lead physicians caring for His Holiness the Dalai Lama, my ongoing work mentoring medical students and residents at the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health, and my humanitarian medical work with Tibetan refugees, I’ve gained a unique perspective on modern health care. I strive to blend the science of Western medicine with the balance of holistic, integrative approaches to healing. Give the podcast a listen—I think you’ll love it."

    Dr. Zorba looks at a study that shows the effectiveness of cancer treatments may depend on the time of day it's given. He helps a caller with vitamin D questions, and a listener about when to get the shingles shot. Zorba also discusses why it is dangerous for RFK and CDC to compare the U.S. to Denmark as it relates to vaccines. The Beef Cops also chime in, and we hear a Mom Joke.
