This is your chance to hear advice on careers, love and more from one of America's best-known doctors, Sanjay Gupta! 


It's safe to say that Sanjay Gupta is overqualified to give advice. The multiple Emmy-award winning CNN correspondent also happens to be a practicing neurosurgeon. So, you should trust his advice, he’s a doctor. Dr. Gupta and Tig combine forces to guide a high school student on how they should gently break it to their mother that they'd rather be a broadcast journalist instead of enrolling in medical school. Another listener wrote in seeking a cure for a bad case of limerence that's been plaguing their marriage for a long time. Wonder how to heal from this? Don't know what limerence even means? Well neither did Sanjay and Tig, but they find out and you can, too, if you listen to this episode. You'll also catch Sanjay sharing his two cents on the cons of becoming a sex symbol and how they plan to get Tig on People’s Magazine list of sexiest people alive.
