Episode 20 - Better Late than Never

thehappymedic@gmail.com — Mon, 28 May 2012 09:06:03 PDT

We don't even remember when we recorded this show. Motorcop has been hiding it in his laptop during the Sergeant's exam process and we finally got Happy over to actually complete it and upload it.
Cops..

Anyhow, come listen to the show Good Morning America calls "We do not accept requests for review of material."

Seriously, we don't remember what we talked about. It's been too long. EPISODE 20

HM Does the Dishes

thehappymedic@gmail.com — Sun, 29 Jan 2012 18:30:23 PST

Yup. You read that right. I talked HM into doing the dishes so I could get this post out to the lot of you. I am a modern day Huck Finn.

In this, our last teenage episode, we talk about collisions and when they are documented, evidence-based medicine, and some pretty kick ass Kilted to Kick Cancer news.

Enjoy our last episode before we hit that crap year between being teenagers and being able to drink. What a dumb year.
