In today’s episode we talk British sayings that Julie is discovering, Melissa talks about the golf ball sized hail that damaged her car (!!!!) and we talk about this episode where Susan is reckoning with losing Susie. Doug continues to date his dads girlfriend and boss (classic) and Jeanie’s husband gets a very upsetting diagnosis. Twitter: @erdebriefed Instagram: @erdebriefedpodcast Email: erdebriefed@gmail.com

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.

This week we chat about episode 19!

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.

We start this episode with another segment of “Melissa’s new obsession”, we answer a cool Twitter question about things we would change in nursing if we had unlimited resources, Mark has a new breakup makeover, Carter leaves the hospital while on shift to celebrate being matched but gets drunk and risks getting kicked out of the program, Chloe is BACK and now wants to parent Susie, Carol turns up in a nursing dress, Benton pulls a controversial move with Marks patient, Susan is slapped by a patient, the Nurses job vs and PA job saga continues and there’s no acknowledgement of how traumatic the last episode was???

A pipe bursts at county general sending a bunch of pregnant ladies down to ER to give birth to their babies and we learn about Peter’s out of character, completely reckless behaviour. Listen here! Twitter: @erdebriefed Instagram: @erdebriefedpodcast Email: erdebriefed@gmail.com

Melissa and Julie chat a bit about what it means to us when a patient t reports 10/10 pain but is busy on their phone. Susan and Mark spark rumours after being spotted on the train together, Peter is let go from the study with Dr. V and Peter makes a big decision about whether or not to report Dr. V, Carter acts like a complete jerk (what the heck Carter?) and we see Jeanie get some fantastic professional redemption and it’s Dougs birthday, which he has a hard time acknowledging. He gets a special birthday surprised from his Dad- doesn’t go so well. Let’s chat about it! Twitter: @erdebriefed Instagram: @erdebriefedpodcast Email: erdebriefed@gmail.com

This week we see Mark continuing with the O’Brien case and learns that the hospital wants to settle while he does not, and at the same time struggles with insecurities in his practice when a patient dies in his care. Also Jen is suing him for divorce and also wanting full custody of Rachel. Lots happening for Mark. Peter enters into a study with Dr. V, which will be a great opportunity for him, Carter takes credit for a diagnosis Harper made and Susan snaps at Kerry for breathing down her neck all day in the department. Back off Kerry! Twitter: @erdebriefed Instagram: @erdebriefedpodcast Email: erdebriefed@gmail.com

This week we get to hear a triggers segment from one of our listeners and friends who has a Masters of arts in counselling psychology (MACP)! Melissa shares one of her recent obsessions and a Julie asks a twitterverse question. We follow Carter on his path with the Rubadoux family, Mark has a hard time telling Rachel that he and Jen are getting a divorce, meanwhile, Rachel does NOT approve of her dad and Susan hanging out together. Benton gets voluntold to attend a banquet event at Dr. v’s house but invites Jeanie to come with him, which is much more fun! We see heart emojis everywhere! Happy listening everyone!!

Another great episode in the books! This episode centres around the conversation of race and what it means in our world today. We talk about this heavier and sensitive topic but also chat a bit about new developments happening at County General. Happy listening!

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!

We begin the episode talking about bologna and the strangeness that is having bodily fluids around ones working space. Harper and Carter continue their flirtatious relationship, we express our horror at THREE lumbar punctures on ONE patient in the SAME day (back to back hah), we talk about the drug seeking behaviour of a patient in the episode and why it’s important to address their concerns, and finally, a couple presents to county general with one of their arms lopped off. Exciting stuff! Happy listening! Twitter: @erdebriefed Instagram: @erdebriefedpodcast Email: erdebriefed@gmail.com

Episode 4 is here and we get right into it with a parking lot altercation resulting in a prosthetic leg being used as a weapon and Benton breaking a precious finger! We discuss our hatred of ASMR, or rather, Mukbang (먹방), and get a little lesson on the origins of this Korean trend (I think this education session made us hate it less). Susan adjusts to being a new stand in mom, we talk contraband substances in the ER, the differences in nursing practice from unit to unit and more naked Danish ladies in Dougs apartment!
