In this episode of Core Anesthesia, Cole and Tanner tackle emergence — basically, the art of waking a patient up from anesthesia and getting them safely to recovery. They swap stories, compare techniques, and pretty much disagree on everything from when to reverse paralytics to how to wean off the gas. The big takeaway? There's no single right way to do this, which is exactly why it takes years to get good at it. Stick around for part two, where they'll get into deep extubation, laryngospasm, and other tricks of the trade.

In Part Two of our financial deep dive with Vinny Cagungun, we tackle four of the most-requested topics from our listeners: debt payoff strategy, the real financial differences between W2 and 1099, tax planning for high-income CRNAs, and how to find the right advisors for your team. Vinny, Cole, and Tanner share their personal journeys — including what they'd do differently in hindsight — and break down practical frameworks like the three-bucket tax system, the 1.3x rule for comparing W2 to 1099 offers, and often-overlooked strategies like QBI deductions and self-directed 401(k)s. Whether you're a new grad staring down six figures of student loans or an experienced CRNA looking to level up your financial game, this episode delivers actionable insight at every stage. As Vinny says, clarity comes from doing — so take it one step at a time and enjoy the journey.
