In Episode 186, Derek Madden and Matt Kolsky apologize for any audio quality issues as Kolsky is en route from Sacramento to San Francisco, and then get into:
- The new film Joker (2:30) and how both guys ended up confused and disappointed after watching it…
- A much more enjoyable film, Netflix’s El Camino (20:45), the story of Jesse Pinkman and the delightful fan service of Breaking Bad creator Vince Gilligan…
- The season finalĂ© of HBO’s Succession (27:30) and how it is functioning at a tremendously high level, particularly given how difficult it is to describe…
- Season 4 of USA’s Mr. Robot (45:10) and whether there’s anything new or interesting to see there…
- A new album from a new band — the self-titled Black Pumas (48:40) — and whether they are worth following into the future…
