Thursday Nov 14, 2019
In this weeks' episode of everyone's favorite Grey's Anatomy recap show, Patrice and Tréza attempt to record the show without Megan and things unravel very quickly: We begin with Patrice trying to explain Motörhead to Tréza, with very limited success. She has similar success with her episode summary of Season 2, Episode 24 (3:20), an episode that involves: one bathroom, three women (7:00); Preston Burke moping about sex (12:30); Denny's readiness to shake off his mortal coil already (19:05); a "hillbilly picnic" (28:50); one very melodramatic reconciliation scene (40:00); Derek and Meredith and the birth of their ship name, #Meredick (48:00); and this week's M&M (55:48) which includes a deeply queer, deeply TRAGIC Song of the Week, as well as a rare Worst Song of the Week. LONG LIVE #MEREDICK

Thursday Oct 10, 2019
Welcome to this week's edition of Code Grey(s) where we are tackling an epidemic of SUPERSTITION in Season 2, Episode 24.

Thursday Jan 19, 2017
We're BACK with an all new (albeit abbreviated) episode of Code Grey(s). We had precisely ONE hour to record and in that time we dealt with: an adorable dog bein a dog in the background; our episode summary (02:43); the baffling smoking habits of millenials (05:50); a totally topical conversation about oral fixation (10:10); literal fart noises in a discussion of Izzy/Alex/Denny (15:20); the intergenerational love story of Sophie and George (17:05); the glorious triumph of pessimism over optimism (21:46); and our BITS (28:10) including our rundown of the proposal to repeal Obamacare.

Thursday Jan 05, 2017
It's our first episode of the new year! We're back with our recap of Grey's Anatomy S2E13, "Begin the Begin." If you're interested in jumping to our Medical Fact of the Week (the relatively common practice of assigning gender to intersex newborns/infants), skip ahead to 44:20. Apologies for the abrupt end--we had a corrupt audio file and lost a lot of great material on The Ellen Pompeo twitterstorm of Late 2016.
We start out with some harsh words for R.E.M. fans before diving into our episode summary (02:40); is trout for breakfast sexy: y/n? (03:15); another Derek Shepherd betrayal (05:05); the compelling story of Bex, an intersex teen (08:45); Tréza's unpopular opinion: Denny sucks (22:13); and our BITS (38:35) which include a beautiful monologue by Bailey and our Medical Fact of the Week (44:20).
