Here we are presenting the most recent episode of the "Hear Us Out" podcast featuring Talking Ears co-host, Frank Wartinger. Enjoy! And go listen to their show! ====================================== Is hearing loss simply the price musicians have to pay for a lifetime of making music? Not necessarily. In this episode of Hear Us Out, Dr. Eric Sandler and Dr. Michelle Schechter welcome music audiologist Dr. Frank Wartinger for a conversation about hearing health, music, and why protecting your ears doesn't have to mean sacrificing the sound you love. From rehearsals and recording studios to live performances, musicians face unique listening challenges. But hearing loss isn't necessarily an inevitable consequence of a career in music. Frank shares his perspective on the importance of hearing conservation, the misconceptions surrounding noise exposure, and how musicians can make informed decisions to protect their hearing without compromising their artistry. We explore the relationship between sound exposure and hearing health, the role of hearing protection, and why audiologists need to understand the musical experiences of the people they serve. Whether you're a professional musician, an aspiring artist, or someone who simply loves live music, this conversation offers an important reminder: You shouldn't have to choose between the music you love and the ability to hear it. Every Sound Has a Story.
