Quotes

“This is a ‘framework of shock’ lecture. We’re going to talk about, not necessarily treating shock–we’ll get into that in our next episode–but we’re going to define what shock is, and the categories of shock.” – Shannon

 “Really, I think about shock as a supply and demand problem. Our supply is not meeting the demand that we have.” – Shannon

 “Uh, oh. You’re asking me to go back–back B.C. My memory for B.C. is not that good. […] Before children. Those were different brain cells.” – Steph

 “I warned you that when he has his glasses on, things were about to get real..” – Steph
