In this episode, Howard and Maddie White challenge shaky claims linking autism to circumcision and Tylenol, then zero in on speed as the byproduct of essential, evidence-based surgery. We show how essentialism, confidence, and efficiency reduce complications, lower costs, and improve outcomes in the OR.
• correlation vs causation in autism narratives and bias in research
• why operative time predicts complications across procedures
• surgeon volume, variability, and outcome differences
• evidence-based cesarean steps that cut time and bleeding
• tool and method choices that are safer and faster
• confidence as self-efficacy, not arrogance
• practical efficiency: setup, flow, visualization, debrief
• lean thinking, standardization, and reducing variation
