🎙️ Host | 📣 Loud Talker | 🍺 Pint Enthusiast

Once a rock radio DJ, now a doctor of physical therapy — Jimmy McKay is the human Venn diagram of science, stories, and good beer.

He launched PT Pintcast to spotlight the voices, ideas, and bold moves shaping the future of rehab. Since then, he's interviewed hundreds of guests (and probably spilled just as many pints) in his mission to make healthcare conversations way less boring and way more useful.

Jimmy’s not here to hand out cookie-cutter advice. He’s here to stir up curiosity, ask the questions everyone else is afraid to, and keep things just the right amount of irreverent.

When he’s not behind the mic, he’s probably helping clinics launch their own shows through PT Pintcast Media, making nerdy jokes on LinkedIn, or rethinking how PTs show up in the world.

Superpowers:
– Getting guests to say, “Wow, no one’s ever asked me that.”
– Translating big ideas into real takeaways.
– Making CEU credits feel like a TED Talk with better beer.

“If you're gonna spend 30 minutes listening, we better make it worth your time — and fun to boot.”
