Criss-cross! This week we do a topic switch-a-roo with dear Jesse and Eric from Personal Arrogants podcast…I mean…why not? We threw a few topics at them that are Because Show favorites and they volleyed back with a few of their favorites. Suffice it to say, this will be the only episode where you hear ‘fantasy…
I think I may have dropped the oh-shit-this-show-makes-me-feel-dirty bomb a week too early. That idea was ratcheted up this week. All along, we’ve been questioning where to draw the line on Walter White. When should we jump ship and say “this is an evil man, he deserves what he gets”? For many, that line was…
Up until tonight, I could see a semi-happy ending to Breaking Bad. I had to squint maybe, but it was there. Okay, so what if Walt, Skyler, Hank, Marie, even Walt Jr. end up biting it. We can always have Jesse and Baby Holly on the run with a barrel full of cash. I’d take…
We had a lot to say about this episode, without talking about the actual episode. Is that weird? It’s just all our thoughts and feelings about this season, and where it’s going, and whether we feel good about it or not. It’s a weird “instant cast” for a weird, slower paced, brutal penultimate episode. I think my last hopes for even a modicum of happy ending died tonight. Can’t wait to see what everybody else thought!
Find out which Star Trek alien we’d each choose to be, our stance on the war on drugs, how much money we pry away from Jeff Bezos each month and the gory details of our religiously-loaded childhoods in the Q&A video that we recorded as part of our Breaking Good Kickstarter stretch goals.

Watching this episode took a year off my life, Princess Bride-style. It felt like it lasted 3 weeks long. It was sad, heart-pounding, gut wrenching, and absolutely a stunning hour of television. Find out what our final review was, as we discuss Uncle Jack’s soft spot, Ozymandias references and homages, the curious indifference to reckless driving and bullet holes by the NM State Police, stray dogs, and stealth f-bombs. All this, your feedback, and a very, very light spoiler section as we enter the home stretch of this final season of Breaking Bad.
Last week in our podcast covering “To’Hajiilee”, I refused to judge the wisdom of ending the episode in the middle of what everyone expected to be a fatal gunfight for Hank, Gomie, Jesse, Walt or maybe just everyone. After seeing this week’s episode – “Ozymandias” – I’m glad I held that judgement.
