| 0:00.0 | Hello, residents. My name is Mike Estefan. I'm joined today not only by Maddie Watts, but also by a special guest, Maris Schewarter. We thank you for downloading this month's episode of the EM Clerkship podcast. |
| 0:18.3 | This episode is sponsored by Pearson Rabbit's Insurance, my personal independent disability |
| 0:24.3 | insurance agent. |
| 0:26.0 | We will talk more about Pearson Rabbits later in the episode, but for now, let's get into |

| 1:38.8 | I am ready to go. |
| 1:41.3 | Dr. Watts, this will be a single patient encounter. You will have 15 minutes to complete the case before we begin. Do you have any questions? |
