Embracing our crone era

Kaye’s and Rae’s Anatomy

As interns, Rachel and Laurel are the Meredith to each other’s Christina, and they’re both looking for the Dr. Robbys to their Mel. This week the gals gab about their favorite medical shows and answer questions about how real life compares. Do residents ever sneak away for sex in supply closets or sob in stairwells? Do bugs actually grow in wounds and do people die in the waiting room while waiting for 8+ hours to be seen? And have these docs actually watched the Pitt themselves? ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy [https://acast.com/privacy] for more information.

Fellowship of the Oura ring

This week the girls talk wearables, as in the pretty jewellery that also takes your temperature, measures your sleep and judges your exercise habits. The docs answer listener questions about continuous glucose monitors, socks that check your baby’s oxygen, and other devices that promise big glow-ups but might give big anxiety. Digressions include horses on beaches, a celebrity shadowing and a damp kitty.  ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

Living our breast life

On this week’s episode, Rachel shares exciting news, Laurel flips to nights, and the docs delve into some double D dilemas on this episode about boobs. One listener is wondering if her asymmetry is a cause for alarm, and another listener ponders whether she should get a breast reduction.  ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

In defense of public toilets

Rachel is back from Greece and Laurel has completed yet another book club. The docs also discuss some of our listener’s common health myths and misconceptions. From STIs on toilet seats to swallowed chewing gum to the percentage of our brains we put to use- are you ready to shake them off? Or continue squatting in midair? ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy [https://acast.com/privacy] for more information.

Tuna Talk

This week, Tara and Laurel struggle to make use of the English language, while responding to a grab-bag of listener reactions, a hantavirus haunting, a fertility visit gone awry, and some dating dilemmas. The docs also return to the question of quitting and discuss the extent to which they’re in competition with one another. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.
