Laughs, Lifesaving, and Late Shifts: St Denis Medical, The Pitt, and Late Shift

This time on This American Wife, Tim and real-life nurse Amber scrub in for a triple-bill of medical mayhem — from comedy chaos to heart-stopping drama and European realism.

First up, we dissect St. Denis Medical, NBC’s new workplace mockumentary from the creators of Superstore and The Office. Does this hospital sitcom find the right pulse between heart and humor, or does it flatline under comparison?

Then we dive into The Pitt – Season 1, the high-intensity streaming medical drama starring Noah Wyle. Can it capture the emotional stakes and ethical tension that made ER iconic, or is it just another overworked shift in TV’s emergency room?

Finally, we travel to Switzerland for Late Shift (2025) — Petra Volpe’s tense, real-time hospital film that’s drawing comparisons to Boiling Point and The Bear. It’s gritty, grounded, and brutally honest about what it means to care when you’re running on empty.

Across all three, we explore how TV and film portray healthcare today — from overworked nurses and stressed surgeons to the dark humor that keeps them going. Expect laughs, insight, and a few emotional defibrillations along the way.

Marvel’s Impending Doom: Fantastic Four, Thunderbolts & the Road to Avengers Doomsday

The Marvel Cinematic Universe is racing toward Avengers: Doomsday, but can it survive Marvel fatigue along the way? In this episode, we break down every major project on the horizon — from The Marvels, Eyes of Wakanda (Disney+ series) to Thunderbolts, Captain America: Brave New World, and the long-awaited Fantastic Four: First Steps.

We cover:


  • The Marvels (now streaming) and what its end-credits scene means for the X-Men and multiverse.

• Captain America: Brave New World — Anthony Mackie’s Sam Wilson stepping up as the new Cap, with Harrison Ford debuting as Thunderbolt Ross and Tim Blake Nelson back as The Leader.

  • Thunderbolts — Marvel’s team of antiheroes, featuring Florence Pugh’s Yelena, Sebastian Stan’s Bucky, David Harbour’s Red Guardian, and Julia Louis-Dreyfus pulling the strings.
  • Fantastic Four: First Steps — not another origin story, but Marvel’s first family (including Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Joseph Quinn and Ebon Moss-Bachrach) already established in their universe, with hints of what's to come with their connections to Doom.
  • Eyes of Wakanda (Disney+) — an anthology diving into Wakanda’s hidden history, exploring new heroes and corners of the MCU.


We dig into directors, casts, story setups, streaming release plans, post-credit teases, and whether these projects are setting up a Marvel revival or the true beginning of the end.


👉 Are you hyped for Avengers: Doomsday, or are we hitting peak Marvel fatigue?

🦸‍♂️ Finally, we suit up for Superman (2025) — James Gunn’s bright, bold, and controversial reboot of the iconic hero. Does it soar… or stumble? How does it compare to Zack Snyder's abandoned version of the DCU?

Expect laughs, strong opinions, and surprising insights as we break down the best (and worst) of these bold new releases.
