Hello, residents. My name is Zach Olson. I'm joined today by Mike Estefan, and thank you for downloading this month's episode of the EM Clerkship podcast.

This episode is sponsored by Pearson Rabbit's Insurance, my personal independent life and disability insurance agent.

0:14.8

We will talk more about Pearson Rabbits later in this episode. Let's get into it. Today is round number 15 of the game. And Mike is going to need
