Ep 47 Friendsgiving Fizz: Exploring Friends’ Thanksgiving Episodes and Common Holiday Health Risks
In this episode of Medical Media Mixer, we raise a glass with our Friendsgiving Fizz cocktail while celebrating the chaos and comedy of Friends Thanksgiving episodes. From Joey’s iconic turkey hat to Monica’s culinary disasters, we recap the most memorable moments and fan-favorite episodes. Then, we get serious about holiday health, exploring common Thanksgiving-related medical issues such as overeating, heart attacks, “holiday heart” atrial fibrillation, kitchen accidents, and alcohol-related emergencies. Learn tips to stay safe, enjoy your feast, and make it through the holiday season without an ER visit.
P.S.So yes Burt Reynolds died… in 2018. RIP to whichever mustachioed actor that Nicole saw passed away on October 2025.
