| 10/7/26 | Bye bye baby docs | Against all odds, the higher powers let us stick around and become second-year doctors. This week, all three docs are back together to debrief intern year: best and worst shifts, tears and traumas, keeping relationships and hobbies alive, and the moments we felt we *might* actually know what we're doing.

| 9/30/26 | Wegovy vs Wolverine: the wondrous world of peptides | Peptides are having a moment, and apparently everyone now has a guy. This week, the docs wade into Wolverine Stacks, bodega peptides, injectable beauty promises and the mysterious vials of BPC-157 arriving in people's mailboxes, asking which peptide claims have actual medicine behind them and which are running several clinical trials ahead of the evidence. We also investigate whether peptides can heal your tendons, improve your skin and make you immortal, or whether your peptide guy might have oversold this. Hosted on Acast.
