We dive int...

Valerie Faye joined us for an episode about a trumpet player who signed an DNR and he's paralyzed and House wants to cure him.

While we get some tender House and a great prank on some fuddy duddy surgeo...

Today we grapple with one of the biggest philosophical questions out there: can House make a mistake? EJ Feddes joins us to discuss this episode where House, maybe, injects a nun with the wrong syringe and then things go downhill from there. It's also a Christmas episode, sort of? We discuss proper syringe placement, whether God is or is not a big man with a beard who lives on a cloud, Showtime se...

You could probably use a break from all the pandemic stuff, right? Well good news, because this week's House episode deals with a baby epidemic.

Comedian Dan Wilbur joins us to discuss whether a baby epidemic is a good time to flirt, the right way to l...
