🎙️ Episode Title: Brains on the Blacktop, Tacos in the Gut

🩺 Summary:After working a fatal interstate trauma scene where a man was dragged for miles, the only thing left to do was… eat Taco Bell. Because sometimes, your brain breaks — and sometimes, it bails.

📌 Why It Matters:Coping in EMS doesn’t always look like therapy. Sometimes it looks like bad jokes, worse meals, and laughing when no one else understands why.
