220 Fevers of Unknown Origin
Oh wow Carol goes on another ride along- WHY THO? We don’t know, but Shep displays some problematic behaviour! Doug is being Doug, Mark and Weaver are talking more about who should be chief resident, Carter is itching to get into more surgeries but finds out he needs more paediatric hours to graduate and Benton finds out that Dr.V addressed the concerns of the study in an addendum but whether he added it before or after Bentons formal complaint is questionable.

218 A Shift In The Night
We start the episode by hearing Julie’s account of spotting Harry Styles, then on to our mutual obsession of Alternate Side Parking Thursdays and then we jump into an episode that we feel truly reflects the atmosphere of a wild night shift. We talk ethylene glycol (anti freeze) overdose, night time grilled cheese from the cafeteria, patients calling 911 from the waiting room and more.

210 A Miracle Happens Here
Christmas in the ER round two!
Melissa’s obsession with romance novels continues, Shep and Carol wake up in her house which is NOT up to code, it’s Christmas at County general and the warm fuzzy vibes are lacking a bit when the O’Brien case continues and Mark runs into Mr. O’Brien before the deposition while also struggling with his divorce. We obsess over Noah Wylie’s physical comedy, Carter and Benton are up to their usual antics, and we meet a woman whose granddaughter was accidentally kidnapped when her car was stolen. This woman also happens to be Jewish and shares a lovely moment with Mark who we learn has Jewish heritage. Carol takes care of a patient who bears a striking resemblance to Santa and Shep tells Carol he loves her after like, a week of dating. Of course we’re up to our usual banter and tangents! Happy listening!

14. Long Days Journey
We begin the episode talking about what the real role of a nurse is. What do we ACTUALLY do? Dr. Carter becomes a teacher to Dr. Chen who OWNS her presentation (this woman is a genius), working in emerg is great but it’s NOT all that in a bag of potato chips (find out what we actually mean), Dr. Benton wants to hire a physio for his mother and wears a turtle neck under his scrubs taking after our favourite Lydia; could Julie pull it off? Dr. Kayson is served in the review panel and Susan then SAVES HIS LIFE; Doug has a beautiful moment of vulnerability and hopefully Peter learns a bit about what is really important in life (not just work). Finally, more predictions for Dougs love life.
