In this episode of the Active Health Podcast, Dr. Josh Mason sits down with longtime patient Robert Karrick for an honest conversation about hidden injuries, chronic pain, and how your body can silently break down over time.

Robert shares his journey through high school sports, military service, and hard physical work — all seemingly without major injury — until lingering issues surfaced years later. From debilitating foot pain to chronic neck problems, we discuss how injuries from your past can quietly add up, and why traditional medicine often misses the deeper causes.

We also dive into the detective work behind reading X-rays, identifying subtle but critical changes like reversed neck curvature, and how Active Health Clinics takes a hands-on approach to real healing.

👉 If you’ve ever wondered why your body hurts years after you thought you “healed,” this episode is for you.

In Episode 4 of the Active Health Podcast, Dr. Josh Mason sits down with Dr. Roy “Buzz” Korth (@stopfeelinglikeshit_podcast | @buckeyepmr), a nationally recognized expert in regenerative and anti-aging medicine. Together, they break down one of the most misunderstood molecules in modern orthopedics—A2M (Alpha-2-Macroglobulin)—and how it’s revolutionizing treatment for joint pain, arthritis, and degenerative conditions.

Dr. Buzz shares:
• Why cortisone shots and NSAIDs often make things worse
• How A2M halts the root cause of joint degeneration
• Why most orthopedics aren’t using it (yet)
• The science behind peptides like BPC-157 and NAD+
• Real patient outcomes and clinical breakthroughs

With over 10,000 procedures under his belt and as CEO of multiple biotech companies, including Push Patch, Pinnacle Biolab, and Comprehensive Biosciences, Dr. Buzz is a driving force behind the therapies reshaping functional medicine and recovery.

From singing birthday songs to remembering patients’ life details, she shows that love and attention are just as critical as clinical care.

We explore why small acts of kindness make a big difference, how patient relationships transform outcomes, and why the “extra mile” may not be crowded—but it’s where the magic happens.

You’ll learn:
• Why she left nursing and how motherhood changed her health philosophy

• How mindset, stress, and sleep may be blocking your health progress
• Why coaching clients isn’t just about food — it’s about life
