## Resource

Though evidence dictates much of what we do as emergency medical providers, some areas remain open to debate: How are we justifying stroke ambulances, CCT speciality teams, AHA guidelines, and our choice of crystalloids? How are we justifying what professionals are allowed to post on social media? And do we agree with the currently accepted norms? Who better to join us in this discussion than Mike Carunchio of The World's Okayest Medic Podcast . Diving into these and other controversial topics, we see if our two platforms can come to a consensus in a randomized, uncontrolled conversation. *Strong opinions were involved in this production. If something challenges your perspective, good—that's the point.
