In this reflective episode, the hosts explore how reading beyond orthopedics shapes creativity, productivity, and balance. They discuss the value of rituals—morning reading, plane-ride immersion, and the accountability of book clubs—and how great writing sharpens thought. Their conversation spans classics, biographies, poetry, and songwriting, highlighting how voices from Hemingway to Dylan and Kendrick Lamar reveal new ways of seeing. Ultimately, they argue that broad reading enriches clinical work, deepens perspective, and sustains curiosity across a career.
