Tony Chin-Quee, MD and Frances Mei Hardin, MD are back for Episode 2 of Social Rounds — the show where two ENT surgeon dropouts deliver fast, funny, and fearless takes on medicine, culture, and life.

In this episode, we cover:

– Inside baseball: Can doctors really “find joy” in medicine, or is wellness just another way to gaslight trainees?

– Outside baseball: Nitrous oxide is the new party drug — but should you really trust something called Galaxy Gas?

– Florida man: Credit card fraud, Chuck E. Cheese, and why reading the mouse his Miranda rights might be the greatest story of 2025.

– Social Rounds: Life advice no one asked for, featuring dirty scrubs, three-baths-a-day coping strategies, and the importance of minding your vaginal pH.

– Call Room Confessions: If he wanted to, he would… even if it means removing a hospital bunk bed to make the call room the official “sex room.”

This is not your average doctor podcast. After the notes, charts, and doctor’s lounge sandwiches — it’s time for Social Rounds.
