This episode of Doctales with Cocktails dives into a whirlwind of topics, starting with reflections on Jimmy Carter's enduring legacy beyond his presidency. 

From there, Drs. May and Tim tackle absurdity in the news, including a bizarre Florida crime involving a suitcase and a life sentence, the ongoing battle of fat positivity versus public health realities, and the financial pitfalls of modern healthcare. 

With poignant anecdotes, fiery rants, and thoughtful musings on courage in the face of societal challenges, this conversation is as spirited as a shaken martini.

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! 🦃 This week, we’re revisiting one of our favorite episodes from 2022 that’s all about gratitude—a topic that never goes out of style. Whether you’re hearing this for the first time or giving it another listen, we promise it’s worth your time (and perfect for the holiday vibe)!

In this special rerun, Tim and I dive deep into:

• The difference between thankfulness and gratitude
• The incredible health benefits of a grateful mindset
• The powerful psychological boosts that come from embracing gratitude daily

And, because we keep things real, we’ll share tips for cultivating gratitude—even if you (like Tim) sometimes let road rage get the best of you. 🙃

We originally aired this episode in 2022, but we know many of you may have missed it back then. Plus, it’s just the kind of soul food we all need on Thanksgiving!
