#103 – The Pitt is Just What the Doctor Ordered
The one where we scrub in.
Feb 3, 2025

Lawsuits aside, we’re hooked on this gritty, fast-paced procedural designed to bring some much-needed network flair to the Max app.
Plus: Did you already bail on your resolution to budget better? We’re here to help with our first 2025 edition of Add/Keep/Cancel!
