Dr. JJ (Psychiatrist) and Dr. Domi (Pediatric Anesthesiologist) dive deep in Episode 17. They unpack the Lindsay Clancy trial and what it reveals about postpartum psychosis, the mental health system, and the Goldwater Rule. They mourn the tragic death of Hayden Panettiere and her brave honesty about postpartum depression. Then Dr. Domi presents the case report: do doctors need non-physician friends? — featuring a wild naan (bread) story, 45-minute lateness, and the question of whether it's time to find new people. Dr. JJ shares her residency "Hump Day Happy Hour" escape & discovers mahjong, and both hosts rave about the physician content creator community. As always: your neighborhood doctors, but not YOUR doctors.
