We take a trip down memory lane and tell you all about the ordeal of our paramedic school days from 20 years ago (that can't be right), as Danny begins precepting a new paramedic intern on his rescue. We break down the paramedic training landscape in LA, & tell you how we wound up at the toughest school of them all. We explain the academic insanity that is paramedic school (a year of medical school crammed into about 60 school days) & what it takes to prepare and survive it. You learn how to advance from the classroom and learn from the RN's in the ER, including how Danny almost saved the legendary Chick Hearn. Then we get into the craziest part, internship. We talk zero shift, freezing up, no doz, 5 am - 12 am school days, study groups, crazy instructors, IM's in the butt, failing, passing, drilling, BLS skills, & reading reading reading, & more reading. God we had to read so much. You get a bunch of tips on how to get thru medic school. Plus Danny gives a touching tribute to a mentor Firefighter.
