Episode 4: Mile High Photon Club

Monday, November 2, 2026 • Duration 23:40

✈️ The Mile High Photon Club: Some Penetrate. Some Don't.

In this episode, we're talking penetration (the radiation kind, behave yourselves), photoelectric absorption, and Compton scatter. Join us as we follow X-ray photons on their questionable travel adventures, where some reach their destination, others disappear entirely, and a few somehow end up in Cleveland.

It's radiation physics with a side of turbulence, terrible airline experiences, and absolutely no guarantee your luggage will arrive.

🩻 But Did You Collimate?

Because physics doesn't have to be painful.

Episode 3: If This Goes Up... What Happens to That?

Friday, September 11, 2026 • Duration 19:11

If this goes up… what happens to that?

This episode, we’re investigating the relationships that make radiologic physics unnecessarily suspicious. Frequency, wavelength, energy, voltage, current, resistance, and transformers are all getting questioned.

No equations were harmed in the making of this episode.

Episode 2: Mama… Where Do X-rays Come From?

Friday, September 4, 2026 • Duration 29:04

Mama… where do X-rays come from? 🥺

In this episode, we’re having the talk. The birds, the bees, the cathode, the anode… and what happens when electrons get hot, single, and extremely attracted to tungsten.

We’re breaking down X-ray production, from thermionic emission and space charge to Bremsstrahlung and characteristic radiation, without making you memorize another physics paragraph.

Permission slips signed? Good. Let’s talk about where baby X-ray photons come from.

Episode 1: So… Why Are We Here?

Wednesday, September 2, 2026 • Duration 09:31

Episode 1: So… Why Are We Here?

Welcome to Did You Collimate?, a podcast about radiology, imaging science, physics, and all the things you were told to memorize without anyone really explaining why. In this first episode, Lielie talks about why physics deserves better than endless formulas and up/down arrows, then dives into the first It’s Probably Scatter segment to explore why a digital image can look fantastic even when the exposure indicator is quietly having a crisis. Along the way: collimation, scatter, detector exposure, missing markers, and absolutely no solving for x.
