They swap stories from the OR, compare wildly different emergence techniques, and break down how pain control, extubation timing, and airway management all come together in those final moments of a case. The conversation stays practical and honest, with plenty of real-world examples, and lessons learned. Whether you’re a student still figuring out your style or an experienced provider looking to hear another perspective, this episode is packed with relatable insights and takeaways.
