It’s not a great visualization but we make it work. Kevin spent time exploring TikTok fads and discovered crazy things people do to take care of their teeth. Teresa is following a story about a dentist who is faced with protecting her office and boy, is she in a rough situation. Then we wrap it up by talking about people who should just show up for their interviews. Why is that so difficult?
