Ainsley Steve: do you town Steve? Thank you. Very much. Nurses have been heros throughout the pandemic, working tirelessly on the front lines, but our next two guests deserve our praise long before covid and are sharing stories in a new Fox nation, Special called ER nurses, ive talked to friends of mine who have been in Afghanistan, who tell me it was worse here than it was over there for them. Ive got friends that have left nursing because of it. I have friends that have PTSD because of it. For me, war was easy like being in the service that was easy, but with nursing you definitely get burnt out very quickly. You find yourself listening to these stories, thinking my goodness, whose taking care of our nurses Steve no kidding well. This special on Fox nation is based on their book by the same name, so lets bring in the co author and James Pat Patterson and Matt Everson Good Morning, both of you

good Morning, Steve James lets start with you. Youve sold hundreds of millions of books, and you know the secret to a book and a tv show, is to tell a compelling story, and with these nurses, youve got it yeah no ill. Tell you I mean Adam Schiff has a book out this week and Hillary and whatever youll, not find better stories than these. I write a lot of novels. You cant makeup this stuff in e r nurses. The stories is one after the other, after the other. The couple clips you show make it seem. These people are so energized and terrific and one of the nurses read the book over the weekend, and he said it just reminded him of why he loves being a nurse so much Steve sure and Matt. You know in the sound bite replayed one person said I was in Afghanistan, its harder in this country than Afghanistan, its harder than being at war yeah. You know, listen Steve.

These women and men are deployed for their entire career and not to get into the scale of courage here, but these men and women are dealing with the worst of the worst, the baddest of bad days. Every single day of their working life- and they do it so gracefully- were blessed to have them and were glad they introduced them to the country to the world and to hear their stories. It was a sacred thing for us and its story after story after story, like a woman, a nurse has been with this husband and wife and the husband is dying. What can I possibly do? He loves his dog? She sneaks the golden retriever into the hospital and he gets to be with the dog for a couple of hours, its story after story, its tremendous stuff, Steve. I love that people are going to be watching but Heres the thing James. You know right now, theres a nursing shortage. My niece is being transferred from Ohio to go, live out in Hawaii for four months by her hospital group because they dont have nurses there. This is a time when, if you

really want to serve your nation in some fashion, this is a great job and if you read their stories, youre going to understand their plight and understand the wonderful things they do its just I mean I didnt really get it and I grew up. One of my best friends ran the emergency room in Newberg for like thirty years, but I still didnt understand how intense and incredible greys anatomy multiply it times. Five Steve well be watching James Patterson and Matt Evers Man watching and reading Steve thats right get the book and be sure to also watch read the book see the movie. The movie is great Steve. You can do both its terrific Steve, James and Matt. Thank you.
