Hey all, here’s another bonus episode, this time on the crazy new Apple TV show, Pluribus. Pluribus is the latest show from Breaking Bad creator, Vince Gilligan, who in our book is one of the all-time great TV creators. His writing is intelligent, meticulous, unexpected, and wry, and this show is wild. It’s very Twilight Zone-y. Creepy, thought provoking, thrilling, extremely odd in the best way, and super fun. If you haven’t tried it, we definitely recommend you give it a shot! And then, of course, listen to this podcast. And if you end up getting subsumed into the collective, we’ll be covering the rest of the season on Wax Episodic, available wherever you get podcasts, or at ⁠⁠waxepisodic.com⁠⁠.  PS If you’ve been a Podcastica listener for awhile, you might be interested know that the hosts for this podcast are me (Jason) and Karen, who started this network 15 years ago with The Walking Dead ‘Cast. So much fun podcasting with Karen again!  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Bonus Episode: Introducing Wax Episodic Hi, Jason here. This is a special bonus episode reposted from my new podcast, Wax Episodic, where I cover top-tier, story-rich TV shows one season at a time with different co-hosts. We’re kicking things off with Alien: Earth, and I wanted to share the first episode here so you can check it out. If you like it, please consider subscribing to Wax Episodic — it’s my new podcast home, and you can find it at ⁠waxepisodic.com⁠.  Or just search “Wax Episodic” wherever you get your podcasts. PS If you were drawn to the philosophical and emotional questions in Westworld — about what it means to be human, and how we treat those we create — Alien: Earth explores similar territory through synths and hybrids caught in systems of control and exploitation. Alien: Earth S1E1&2: “Neverland” & “Mr. October” The wait is over — Alien: Earth has landed, and Noah Hawley’s first two episodes deliver everything we hoped for: suspense, grotesque alien terrors, strange new lifeforms, and a sharp look at how unchecked corporate ambition could shape our future — in a series that (at least so far) feels both classic and brand new. Join Jason, Randy, and Kara as we dig into “Neverland” and “Mr. October.” Links from the episode: Brain interface used to edit YouTube video — paralyzed Neuralink patient also uses AI to narrate with his own voice: ⁠https://www.tomshardware.com/peripherals/wearable-tech/brain-interface-used-to-edit-youtube-video-paralyzed-neuralink-patient-also-uses-ai-to-narrate-with-his-own-voice?utm_source=chatgpt.com⁠  Next up on Wax Episodic: Alien: Earth S1E3 “Metamorphosis”!

After having covered each and every episode of HBO’s Westworld, David and I finally went back to the source material, Michael Crichton’s original 1973 sci-fi Western thriller. Both David and I saw this movie and were scared by it as kids, and I hadn’t seen it since, so I was curious to see how it would hold up. And I thought it was great! Well worth watching, especially if you enjoy the HBO show.  We are most likely going to be back in a couple weeks to talk about the new documentary, More Than Miyagi: The Pat Morita Story, so we’ll see you then.

Is this show in crisis? We have a few theories. Enjoy! PS Thanks everyone for listening to us cover this season of Westworld.

Nothing like a sultry-voiced, snarky French AI to spice up an episode. The Caleb stuff was drawn out and we had some other complaints, but we found a lot to appreciate and to ponder, and we're definitely looking forward to the season finale next week. Have any opinions on what House Podcastica should cover next? What about Ozark? Let us know what you think. Shoot me an email or post on our FB page if you have ideas or suggestions.

Not our very favorite episode, but we had fun speculating who is seeing Charlotte Hale when she looks in the mirror, and we found a lot more to like too (that Transformer-like riot-bot was particularly cool).

We present to you a door. Step through, join us, and let's see if we can figure out WTF happened in the S2 finale :) But seriously, we very much liked it and we have a lot to talk about. And also, we thank you all for joining us for this podcast! It's been a pleasure for both of us to do, and you guys made it worthwhile. There'll be a long break before Westworld season 3, but we'll be back for at least an episode or two in the meantime. For one thing, we'll definitely need to do an S2 retrospective.

Angst, delusion, paranoia, manipulation, vengeance, blind murderous rage, and multiple instances of suicidal despair. Just another week in Westworld! (The park should probably not hire me as their marketer.) Well, somehow it's all as deliciously engaging as ever, so join David and I as we talk it out.
