In this delayed post thanksgiving episode, Dr's J and Santhosh once again perform their bimonthly roundup of medical news, this time with a focus on stories about the liver! Along the way they cover holiday call coverage, a diabetic weight loss drug that may prevent drinking, chumbawamba, cirrhosis, armadillos, immortal organs, hepatic hand me downs, video game playing organoids, dishbrains, and more! So sit back and relax as we pack this episode full of enough liver stories to cause hepatomegaly!
