Time for The Pitt, Season 2, Episode 11: "5:00 P.M." Sorry for the delay on this one. How about we blame these cyber assholes? (Yes, I’m writing these notes while watching Episode 12.) We only need about a million more listeners before Andrea and Jodie can retire, at which point we can spend our dotage talking into microphones about TV shows, and Andrea will never be late again.If you're reading this, that means you've probably got your podcatcher of choice open right now.

It's time to make our rounds on Season 2, Episode 10 of The Pitt. It's "4:00 P.M." and, honestly, Andrea is way behind on her charting and doesn't want to end up like Santos, so we’re keeping these notes short. Inside: Mel and Robby’s VIPs, waterslide patients, including Andrea's least favorite injury of the series so far, Al-Hashimi might actually be cool as hell?, and we make our predictions as we head into the back third of the season.If you're reading this, that means you've probably got your podcatcher of choice open right now.

The Watchers are back at PTMC to recap Season 2, Episode 9 of The Pitt. It’s “3:00 P.M.” and we’re given one of the most PSA-ass PSAs of the series so far (it’s also one of the most gratifying, so we’re fine with it), meet Dana’s Dana, and mark the first two stops on Robby’s Farewell Tour. We check in on our patients, track what’s unfolding across the department, and break down some extremely important Jersey connections.If you're reading this, that means you've probably got your podcatcher of choice open right now.

The Watchers are back at PTMC for Season 2, Episode 8 of The Pitt, just in time for our “2:00 PM” rounds. And finally, it’s chaos o’clock, baby. Jodie and Andrea celebrate the return of clipboards, patient charts, and the sweet siren song of a fax machine (Abbott is thriving like the office supplies girlie he is). We check in on our current patients, meet some new faces, and watch as the department starts to feel like it’s bracing for something bigger. Ellis and Mel definitely don’t have a conversation, Ogilvie (who is on THIN FRIGGIN ICE) and Javadi team up for some competitive genius nonsense untijavadl cool, calm, and collected Joy steps in, and we see which of our doctors-in-training have the capacity to learn from their mistakes.If you're reading this, that means you've probably got your podcatcher of choice open right now.

The Watchers are back at PTMC for Season 2, Episode 7 of The Pitt, making our “1:00 PM” rounds. This hour takes on a difficult, often sensationalized subject with quiet care, thanks to our queen, Nurse Dana. And while things within Dana’s radius remain steady, the rest of our doctors have honestly kinda gone Muppet mode.Abbott shows up early and immediately challenges our feminist values. Robby goes from Chief Attending Physician to Chief Attending Gossip. And Santos proves (once again) that we were obviously right to love her from day one: a statement that is technically untrue but spiritually correct.Also: the computers will be down next week. Prepare accordingly.Recommended: The Pitt: All of the Characters’ Name SignsIf you're reading this, that means you've probably got your podcatcher of choice open right now.

The Watchers are back at Pittsburgh Trauma Medical Center for Season 2, Episode 6 of The Pitt. It’s “12:00 P.M.,” and Jodie and Andrea clock in for our recently-requested Nurses’ Episode. We say goodbye to Pittsburgh’s greatest groundskeeper, watch Dana’s armor crack just enough to let the light back in, and generally celebrate the nurses who keep The Pitt–okay, maybe not totally ON the rails, but at least rails-adjacent. There’s a Liberty Bell pin mystery that may never be solved, annoying A.I. shenanigans, and a move from fucking Ogilvie for which he will never be forgiven. Most distressingly, though, Robbie comes dangerously close to giving us the ick.If you're reading this, that means you've probably got your podcatcher of choice open right now.

The Watchers are back at PTMC for Season 2, Episode 5 of The Pitt, making our “11:00 AM” rounds. Jodie and Andrea check in on Ogilvie’s Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day, Whitaker’s continued quiet glow-up, and Santos as she gets closer to investing in Dr. Al-Hashimi’s AI startup. Plus: a gridlocked granny, some extremely Pittsburgh sports fan behavior, and why Donnie’s sink hole bet might not be as foolish as Ahmad thinks. We also dig into how this season is less about one big dramatic event and more about the less sensational long-term effects of trauma. And Jodie asks the most important question of all: if you ended up in this emergency department, which doctor would you actually want treating you, and why is it Dr. McKay?Recommended in this episode:This season, The Pitt is About What Doesn't Happen in One Day - Linda HolmesThe Pitt | Cinematographer: Johanna Coelho - Darektor's CutThe Death Thing Is a Bonus - Beautiful Stories from Anonymous PeopleBriefly Perfectly Human: Making an Authentic Life by Getting Real About the End - Alua ArthurIf you're reading this, that means you've probably got your podcatcher of choice open right now.
