With VALENTINE’S DAY right around the corner, we thought it would be a good idea to have Susan’s husband John Mathot co-host with us on this Episode 19. As a longtime supporter of The Because Show, John has joined us previously in July of 2011 on Episode 65 and way back on Episode 38 in November 2010! On this week’s show,…
Kelly and Tom dodge bullets, drop balls, and have a quaff of ale in their recap of Downton Abbey S1:E5.

Ho-ho-hold your horses, now! We got a brand new episode of Justified to talk about! It’s a particularly brilliant one, the dialog was just amazing.
We discuss Carpetbagger’s imitation preacher routine, Devil’s loyalty, Dickie’s swagger, Raylan’s race relations, Boyd’s pitter patter, the finer points of vehicular assault, and the three point turning of pig shit.

Zero boundaries? No thanks. A few boundaries are a very good thing. Boundaries prevent you from dropping by your friend’s place unannounced. Boundaries stop you from eating your roommate’s food in the fridge. Boundaries keep you from phoning your ex at midnight. However, when you mix zero boundaries with zero emissions, all rules go straight out…
What a great episode! It had it all, a cool “gangster of the week”, maximized levels of Raylan and Boyd badassery, links to the main season arc… really, you can’t ask for much more from a show.
We talk about why we feel like this episode works so well, the many versions of Boyd the show has presented us, Raylan’s recovery, why we’ve firmly come down on the “anti” side of the Raylan/Winona shipper debate, this show’s Breaking Bad and Taxi Driver allusions, and Johnny Crowder’s loyalty. We also consider some fan feedback, including another fantastic segment from our own embedded reporter, Ted.

Justified takes a bit of a procedural turn in episode two of season three, titled “Cut Ties”. How does that sit with Jim and A.Ron? We discuss our reactions, good and bad, Boyd’s master plan for Dickie, Karen Sisco Goodall’s tongue in cheek tribute to a classic Leonard Elmore character, Art’s bad ass turn, and the tasty, tasty first appearance of Noble Hollow’s own, Limehouse! I think I’m going to need a spot, here.
