OUR FIRST INTERVIEW EVER! Travis invites his wife, Denise - a professional nurse - to talk healthcare. Here, Denise explains what a nurse is (bet you can't answer that if you tried), what the difference is between a nurse and a doctor, what it's really like to work in a hospital, what TV gets wrong about hospitals and nurses, and so much more. Be prepared to have myths and misconceptions dispelled... as well as be prepared in general for what life is really like at a hospital should you be misfortunate enough to be taken to one!

Music Cited

• “Ha Ha You’re Dead” by Green Day (‘Shenanigans’, 2002 - Reprise)

Have you ever heard that song that you've heard way too much? Tom and Travis (but moreso Tom) attempt to dissect this by just listing off songs they're tired of listening too. In addition to the expected bitching and whining, get ready to also hear them sing some of these tunes. Results may vary.

Clips Cited

• The Other Guys. Directed by Adam McKay, performances by Dwayne Johnson, Samuel L. Jackson, Mark Wahlberg, Columbia Pictures, 2010.
