This week Tina is excited to have a pediatric oncology nurse, David Metzger with her to talk about all sorts of interesting things. They start off the show discussing David's book, Nurse Papa, that will be coming out in the next few months. Of course it wouldn't be Good Nurse Bad Nurse without a true crime story, so they discuss a story about an EMT who decided married life was just not enough of an adrenaline rush for him. However, rather than leave his wife, he had other plans that would take him to the south east beaches of Florida. They close the show with a story about an EMT whose quick thinking helped save the arm of a very disturbed man.
