Bullets 2 Bedpans
Welcome to Bullets 2 Bedpans—where military nurses and medics let it rip. Hosted by the brutally honest and sometimes inappropriate trio Dee Tox, MZ, and Leslie, this podcast is a safe space to speak freely, vent loudly, and laugh at the stuff that would make civilians run for cover.
We’re talking real-deal war stories from the bedside and the battlefield. The good, the bad, the ugly—and the "what the hell just happened?!" No topic is off-limits. Mental health, burnout, leadership failures, bowel blowouts—if it happened, it’s fair game.
And yes, there’s cursing. There’s chaos. There’s dark humor you probably shouldn't repeat at brunch. But there’s also truth, heart, and connection behind every wild ride.
⚠️ Warning: At times some of the topics can be full of sensitive content so be sure to read the show notes. So Strap in. This is the medicine you didn’t know you needed.
Welcome to Bullets 2 Bedpans. Let’s get weird.
