    As the Weather grows colder, Seasonal Affective Disorder is on the rise!

    Ever wondered how the lack of sunlight can turn those winter blues into something more severe? Nicole and Dr. Caleb Davis share their own battles with Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) and the surprising effects of geography on mood. Drawing from personal stories in sunny Orlando and the chilling winters of Rochester, this episode highlights strategies to keep the winter gloom at bay, from light therapy to the simple joy of an early morning walk.

    Fractured Facts Spoiler alert: the mysterious "funny bone" isn't what you think, and it's not funny when it acts up!

    Beyond the winter blues, we explore how modern medicine gets a fun twist from the world of video gaming. Imagine surgeons honing their skills with the dexterity you develop playing your favorite games. We discuss studies that link video game prowess to fewer surgical errors and faster performance, a topic that even caught the attention of Joe Rogan and Elon Musk. It's not just about games; we delve into the rigorous worlds of music and surgery, examining the common thread of discipline and skill enhancement through unconventional means.

    And if you've ever pondered the quirks of surgical life, we've got you covered! From managing bathroom breaks during marathon surgeries to the precise art of orthopedic practices, we pull back the curtain on what truly happens in the operating room. We also touch on medical jargon that sounds ominous but is usually good news. With a hearty dose of gratitude, we thank you, our listeners, for your feedback, questions, and shared moments. We're here to make you smile, think, and maybe even learn a thing or two along the way.
