In this debrief conversation, Drs. Bryan Mahoney and David Stahl reflect on their interview with Dr. Reid Geisler, former moderator of the national anesthesiology applicant Discord server. They explore how online communities shape applicant perceptions, what applicants fear, and where misconceptions arise about program culture, workload, CRNA dynamics, case exposure, and prestige. The discussion turns toward transparency in selection, program values, and why residency fit often comes down to culture more than metrics. The hosts also consider how virtual interviews have changed the landscape and discuss how programs may use second-look opportunities to help applicants understand whether a program aligns with their goals and identity. The result is a candid, thoughtful conversation on how applicants and program directors can better understand each other in a high-stakes, often opaque process.
