Further exploring the theme of platonic friendships between men and women in pop culture, Erika is joined first by Steven to talk about the concept of “my person” that ‘Grey’s Anatomy’ brought us, and whether that type of friendship is possible between a man and woman (0:30). Then, she’s joined by writer Rae Witte to deep-dive Alex Karev and Meredith Grey’s friendship evolution (14:35).
