  1. Number 1: ER Nurses Break Down the Medical Evidence in the Lindsay Clancy Trial | The ER Edit Ep. 24

    We’re breaking down the Lindsay Clancy trial through the lens we actually know: ER nursing, trauma care, and mental health. We get into the GCS of three, 82 degree core temperature, spinal cord injury, reported thyroid crush injury, medication history, witness testimony, postpartum psychosis, continuity of care, and the medical questions that kept stopping us in our tracks. This case is ultimately about criminal responsibility, but the testimony also opens a much bigger conversation about postpartum mental health care and what happens when a patient keeps asking for help inside a fragmented system.

  2. Number 2: The Craziest ER Stories We’ve Told So Far | The ER Edit Ep. 25

    We’re revisiting some of the ER stories we still cannot believe actually happened. A toe in a sock, a full urinal to the body, nurse intuition that proved right, career ending mistakes that thankfully were not career ending, bizarre injuries, hospital hookups, and one Christmas Eve code we will never forget. Basically, nursing in all its chaotic, gross, funny, and occasionally terrifying glory.

  3. Number 3: Her Foot Fell Off in the ER: Wild Whisper Line Stories | The ER Edit Ep. 23

    This week, the Whisper Line takes over the entire episode. We read your anonymous submissions cold, including a hospital parking lot affair, a necrotic foot that fell off inside a shoe, a baby nurse’s terrifying first code, pediatric emergencies, hospice confusion, preventable medical errors, unsafe staffing, and a clinical instructor who allegedly made two medication errors in one shift. Some stories are devastating, some are completely unhinged, and all of them give us plenty to dissect.

  4. Number 4: Michael Swango Was Linked to 60 Deaths. Was Lucy Letby Wrongfully Convicted? | The ER Edit Ep. 22

    We go deep into two healthcare true crime cases that raise completely different questions about trust, evidence, and the systems surrounding patient care. First, Caitlin breaks down Michael Swango, the physician linked to as many as 60 deaths who repeatedly returned to medicine through forged records and new identities. Then Karlie revisits the Lucy Letby conviction from a nurse’s perspective, including the circumstantial evidence, journal entries, Facebook searches, missing expert witnesses, and whether the case was truly proven beyond a reasonable doubt.
