Cheap mic. One take. Neat case. 

Want to sit in the passenger seat with me while I tell you about a case in infectious diseases or medical microbiology on my drive home from the hospital, as an ID doc and medical microbiologist?

Might as well - my drive is pretty boring otherwise. 

I’ll drop an interesting case, pay for my parking, describe the case in as best detail as I can, wait at crosswalks, leave you hanging on the culprit, pull up to my house, and give you the reference for the case report. All in 13-17 minutes, depending on traffic.
