I had honestly never heard the term GTS till Dr. Ritu Sahni said it on a secondshift podcast. He is much older than I so maybe it was generational..........or I just never heard it before.

I just couldn’t get into that FBE subset podcast. Too much talky-talky, no mucho learny-learny.

The Lighthouse Project can get that way sometimes, but Jarvis reigns it in a tad better IMO.

Good movie clip for a favorite sitcom of mine. Haha, the 80’s and 90’s were kewl, but “No Country..” was a solid movie, too.

@DragonClaw

the late 80s take on the late 60s.

Ah the Wonder Years. Everyone loved that show in the 90s... except my 5 year old self was far more interested in the Power Rangers lol

Nowadays I end up watching shows where I end up yelling at the TV, like on that 9-1-1 Lone Star... I know its Texas, but I dont think ATCEMS medics can do Foley catheters in the field on standing orders (and of course in the show they end up spraying bladder contents all over because... tv?)

It doesn't even look like that. Texas. It's obviously not filmed near location

Considering the regular 9-1-1 show and the word "accuracy" don't belong in the same sentence, I dont doubt you at all

Are you saying I shouldn’t turn the gout patient into a chemical weapon with oxygen and a defibrillator?

BSI doesn't matter at that point

Now that I think more about it the last time was probably a month ago, when my newest nephew was born

I watched the first episode and couldn't take anymore despite Rob Lowe's good looks

Liv Tyler helps, but she def looks a lot different than she did in Armageddon lol (but her voice is the same ha)

The other day we had an impending respiratory failure that bought a tube.

Despite his best efforts, the ground paramedic could not kick the refractory, and impending failure.

Sedated, paralyzed, and intubated. Put the patient in PCV with an aggressive PEEP and watched the vitals trend back towards livable.

I’m sure the gases were still all kinds of wonky. I didn’t stick around to find out.

Heh, does still feel good to see hard work and effort pay off in favor of the patients. That is all.

I've got a bunch of speaking engagements lined up and I'm curious if they're going to cancel the conference's. This is messing up my mojo.
