Call It What It Is

iHeartPodcastswww.iheart.com

You may know them from Grey Sloan Memorial… but did you know Jessica Capshaw and Camilla Luddington are actually BFFs in real life?!

As all besties do, they navigate the highs and lows of life together. When one of them sends out the distress signal, the other one always answers the call. Big or small, they are there for each other.

And, what does that look like? A thousand pep talks. A million “I’ve got you’s.” Some urgent “I’m coming overs”…

Laughing through the tears and problem solving over glasses of rose… okay, sometimes it take tequila! Because, let’s face it, life can get even crazier than a season finale of Grey’s Anatomy!

Now Jessica and Camilla are opening up the friendship circle to YOU!

Someone’s cheating? They got you on that.

In-laws are in-lawing? Let’s get into it.

Toxic friendships? Air it out.

They’re on your side to help you with your concerns, talk about theirs and every once in a while bring on an awesome guest to get their take on the things that you bring them.

While they may be unlicensed to advise, they’re gonna do it anyway!
