Episode description

Content Warning for graphic medical procedures, assault, sexual assault, suicide, and death in this episode. The Pitt is a show with a lot of tough ingredients thrown into a stew--we try to navigate these with tact and care but be forewarned the entire episode has a lot of potentially triggering discussion.

GameDeveloper.com Editor-in-Chief (and Polygon, Waypoint, and Fanbyte alum) Danielle Riendeau joins John Warren for a recap of season two of The Pitt, one of VGBees' favorite television shows.

Danielle lends her experience as a volunteer EMT in New York City to the duo's analysis and critique of the HBO Max medical drama. Included topics:

  • The role of AI in healthcare
  • The role of compassion in emergency medicine
  • Using the show to demystify difficult subjects regarding sexual assault and death
  • ICE and their miserable role in American healthcare in 2026
  • and much, much more!

Thanks for listening!
