The On-Call Room: A Grey's Anatomy Podcast

This week on the On Call Room Abbey and Bri discuss their surgical dream teams and surgical nightmare teams. Hit play to hear who they choose! These episodes include prepping the surgical (vagina) field, Teddy and Owen flashing back to their time serving overseas, and Derek diving deeper into his roll as Chief. Spoiler Alert: It takes vision, and he doesn't have it. If you are only interested in G...

This week we have a lovey Grand Rapidian scrubbing in, Danielle! She is such a delight, and we know you will all agree. Chief is back from rehab and even though he was promised his job back, Derek says no. This was pending board approval...so Chief gives a lecture instead. Don't leave how you left it, and all that. Alex and Lexie are getting it on. How long will this last? We finally learn about J...

This week it is summer time living in the city. The windows are open, motorcycles are out, and we are hot as balls. The wonderful Lyz scrubs in and we discuss to discuss these two episodes. Derek has his first day as Chief, and Richard is not here for it. Karev spends time in Peds and Arizona has her own special teaching moment with him. Bailey is getting together with the "Gas Man" Ben Warren. Cr...

This week we have the LOVELY Catherine scrubbing in. She is a light among us all and she just happens to be Bri's sister. What a JOY. Her kindness does not dim the drama of these two episodes. Cristina is finally being seen for the surgeon she is, when Teddy wants to leave because...love triangle. Cristina offers Teddy Owen without even thinking! They were both shook. Chief is drinking, but Bailey...

This week on the On Call Room we have the wonderful, insightful Laura scrubbing in. You're not going to want to miss this episode, especially since it is almost two hours of Grey's content. Teddy is here, and she is a Cardio Goddess. She is a gift to Cristina, little did she know she was about to be wrapped up in one of the longest love triangles in Grey's history. Spoiler alert: IT IS STILL HAPPE...

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. Derek does the impossible, and removes an inoperable tumor, while saving a spinal...

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 m...

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 su...

Welcome back listeners to Season 6 of The On Call Room! We have some exciting news this season, so make sure to hit play on the episode! We pick up this season right where we left off, with George dead from a bus. These first two episodes are about grief and how we process the loss of a loved one. It is heavy and emotional and giving us GGB's right out of the gate! We are so happy to be back and c...

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. It is embarrassing, and at times cringe worthy, but we are all about vulnerability and laughs on this podcast...so before we take a little podcast...

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. Izzie can't remember a damn thing after having part of...

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...

Izzie is not well and because of this she gets to plan Meredith and Derek's wedding. She goes ham, and creates an extravagant event that does not reflect Mer or Der in the least...but she has cancer so they go with it. Owen is in therapy, naming feelings. This is good. He needs therapy. Everyone is sorry, and everyone is asking for forgiveness, including Thatcher. He is newly sober and back to ask...

This week Abbey and Bri say one final farewell to Donna. After searching for any piece of information to solve the puzzle of Donna, they find a way to let her go. They also talk about the saddest moments in movies...for way too long. As for this episode of Grey's, Derek shaves, which in this world means that he now has his brain surgery super powers back. He performs surgery on Izzie and to no one...

This week we have old time friend and Grey's anatomy lover Amanda on! She brings great insight and great memories from our youth. Derek is spending his time back at his trailer after his failed surgery, drinking a lot of beer, and hitting engagement rings with a baseball bat. Bailey sends Callie out to talk to him, but she never returns, so Owen goes out for them, but then he never returns. So, Ba...

This is Abbey's last podcast in her twenties and she has had a pretty wonderful decade. If you haven't already, wish her a Happy Birthday! 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...

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...

This is the epic two part episode about the serial killer prisoner. It is beautifully written and horribly dark, something we can all get down on. There are so many GGB's including but not limited to: Derek being vulnerable Derek showing up for Mer after the execution Cristina sitting in the car with Mer Cristina getting in the shower with Owen Owen talking about his best surgery AND Mark breaking...

It is solo surgery time. Cristina has to decide which one of her fellow resident's gets to amputate a dude's foot, even though everyone knows, including Cristina, that it should be her. Spoiler alert: she chooses Karev. He makes the best argument, which is just straight up telling Cristina how to chop off a foot. Arizona is here! Bailey hates her. She wants Chief to do something about it, but he i...

This week Denny and Izzie finally have the opportunity to "make love" or what we like to call "ghost sex". What are the logistics behind ghost sex you ask? Don't worry, your hosts Abbey and Bri talk at length about how what they think the act of sex with a ghost looks like. 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 an...

Death and die, the two worst nicknames ever…this is what we have to look forward to this episode. Meredith’s old friend Sadie is in town, and she is shoving Cristina out of Mer’s bed. We are not here for it, and we are not impressed. Hahn is gone. After Richard told her to leave things alone with the Denny and Izzie situation, and Callie was not expressing her feelings as deeply as Hahn she decide...

Welcome to a Twilight podcast. This week Bri travels down a deep dark hole of Bella, Edward, and Jacob (team Edward). Bri realizes she really missed the boat on a lot of young adult novels, and feels a little disappointed that she is reverting back to 13 years old again. Abbey OF COURSE has already read all the books and seen all the movies, because she is a champion of young adult fiction. Owen i...

It is what you all have been waiting for! Bri has finally finished the first Harry Potter book! Abbey and Bri take some time to discuss first impressions, favorite parts, and where we all go from here. Slowly, Abbey is creating her perfect partner, molding Bri into exactly who she wants her to be. Kidneys. We have a lot of them this episode. This is THE kidney transplant. Joining us on this advent...

Would you rather have hands that keep growing or feet that keep growing? Would you rather be alone for the rest of your life, or surrounded by annoying people the rest of your life? How about your food is always too salty, or your food is not salty enough? These are some serious life questions that Abbey and Bri take on this episode. The hospital is number 12 in the nation and Chief has something...
