This week we have the lovely Amanda scrubbing in all episode, from start to finish! She loves Vegas, she loves cats, and she is a bright ray of sunshine in this gloomy June. Abbey tells us all about her Tony times and we are all very jealous. Check her out in Vogue. She is the one who looks like the alien from signs.

Jun 26, 2019•2 hr 47 min•Transcript available on Metacast First and foremost Happy Pride! Second, if you don't like musicals, don't listen to this episode (or let's be clear, probably most episodes), but especially this one. Abbey is going to the Tony's and Bri sings most of the soundtrack of Moulin Rouge. We have the lovely Laura leave a voicemail about her thoughts on episode 5 and Callie's story-line of coming out. If you have thoughts on an episode make sure to call and leave a message! The biggest story line of these two episodes is the merger. We...
Jun 19, 2019•2 hr 34 min•Transcript available on Metacast Welcome back to another episode of The On Call Room where "Derek is smug" and "Chief is really angry" (those statements coming directly from our notes on the episodes). Other than Derek walking around the hospital comforting coworkers Chief has just fired through an e-mail, we also have Callie showing up asking for her job back (spoiler alert she gets it, and a promotion), Cristina fighting for surgeries, and Izzie working too hard in her wig. Thatcher shows up with liver failure and pukes blood...

Jun 05, 2019•1 hr 27 min•Transcript available on Metacast You're welcome listeners. This week we are providing a Bonus Episode to ALL of the listeners. Back when we were young (we didn't just write these...I promise) Abbey wrote fan fiction about Harry Potter and I (Bri) wrote fan fiction about Orlando Bloom.

Apr 24, 2019•46 min•Transcript available on Metacast I don't know if we are ready to say goodbye, but we have no other choice. These two episodes are packed with drama, GGBs, heartbreak, and death. That is right Grey's BB's this week on the podcast we say goodbye to George O'Malley. He was a good doctor, who was kind and gentle, quiet, and then got hit by a bus and died. Goodbye forever George.

Apr 17, 2019•1 hr 28 min•Transcript available on Metacast This episode is big. It is one of the biggest of our lives. We didn't know it was going to be one of the biggest of our lives. If you don't get that reference, go and read the monologue. But truly this is an episode jam packed with GGB's and all the things that make it a classic Grey's episode. Callie and Arizona are struggling with their relationship, because Callie's bank account has been wiped clean and she is embarrassed that she has no money.

Derek is in the dark place, but no...

This week we have another crossover episode. Addison shows up with her brother who has worms in his brain. Derek works his magic, and saves his life. Afterwards, they celebrate at Joe's by singing the terrible song Derek wrote for Addison when they were getting married. That's right, Derek played the guitar...who knew? Then Derek botches Jen's surgery and cut...
Mar 13, 2019•2 hr 35 min•Transcript available on Metacast Just because Denny told Izzie she is sick, doesn't mean she now knows what is going on. This week she uses Sadie her intern to perform multiple tests on her. The only thing they find out is that Izzie is anemic...but there is probably (obviously) more to that story. Derek is going to propose and everyone knows except Meredith. Even their patient knows. Mark helps Derek decorate their bedroom with rose petals and an over-sized, frightening teddy bear, when Derek gets a call...from Addison?? NO PR...

Alex is into to, and doesn't are, although I am not sure he fully grasps what is going on. Callie gets punched in the face and breaks her nose, this continues to not be her year. Then all of the interns do a real fuck up and ...
Feb 13, 2019•1 hr 10 min•Transcript available on Metacast Death and die, the two worst nicknames ever…this is what we have to look forward to this episode.

This leaves Cristina with Dr. Dixon, wishing for Hahn to be back, and Callie crying in t...
