In this episode of Anything But Politics (ABP), we lace up for a wild ride! First, hear a heart-pounding (and maybe heart-stopping?) running story that’ll make you think twice about nighttime jogs. Then, we huddle up for a Minnesota Vikings season update—are they soaring, or is it just another Minnesota mirage? Finally, we deck the halls with hilarious Christmas stories and cherished family traditions. Tune in for laughs, insight, and a sprinkle of holiday spirit—no politics, just the good stuff!

In this hilarious and educational episode, we sit down with my sister, Rebekah, a Certified Registered Nurse Anesthesiologist, to get the inside scoop on a job that’s equal parts science, skill, and comedy gold.

Tune in for the laughs, stay for the expertise—you’ll never look at surgery the same way again!
