Jim and A.Ron celebrate one of the greatest episodes in Breaking Bad / Television history! By anyone’s estimate, episode 511, “Confessions”, was tense, gripping, and incredibly satisfying to watch. We can’t disagree.
Join us for an indepth discussion of manipulation, frozen firearms, creepy manhugs, Aaron Paul’s subtler moments, Hank trapped in a jar, and much, much more. All this, and our all-star listener feedback and voicemails, as well as our spoiler section, safely ensconced behind a wall of protective outro music.
As I said on the instant take podcast, one of my pet peeves is when sportscasters immediately declare that something they just saw was the greatest “game”, “performance”, “comeback”, “catch” etc. in the history of the sport! As humans, we tend to overvalue new experiences and discount older ones. Our memories play tricks on us,…
Did we just watch one of the best hours of television, or The Best Ever? Jim and A.Ron debate that point as they struggle to process the absolutely incredible hour of television that was Breaking Bad episode 511, “Confessions”. All the pieces were there the whole time, hidden in plain sight. But no one saw Walt’s “confession” and the impact it would have. No one forsaw the consequences of a single boosted bag of weed. And what else is lurking out there, in two flash forwards and an enigmatic scene between Meth Damon and his Uncles of Anarchy? I sure as hell don’t know, but can’t wait to find out!
I feel like I’m watching my child compete in the Olympics when I watch Breaking Bad. I know that I’m watching something extraordinary but there’s an ever-present fear of it all going horribly wrong. The last show I can remember that sucked me in this much was LOST. We all know how that turned out……
A.Ron here, super pleased to be presenting a cross-podcast extravaganza, as Susan and Amy graciously shared their mics with me for a very fun discussion of season one of Orange is the New Black!

Sorry for the delay on the release, we had some nasty technical problems, but here we are with our complete coverage of this week’s episode of “Breaking Bad”, entitled “Buried”. We talk a lot about Skyler’s breaking bad, Hank’s poor handing of his interrogation, Walt’s superhuman digging ability, Marie’s stone slab slap, and Walt’s face vs. a linoleum floor. All this plus your feedback, voicemails, and some light spoilers in the spoiler section.
The first thing that struck me after viewing this episode was how consistently tense it was. Other than Huel and Kuby’s silverfish routine, every scene had me on the edge of my seat wondering how it would play out – who would talk and who would stay silent – who would be dead by the…
Tonight the biggest question I had on my mind coming into the second episode of the back half of Season Five of Breaking Bad was, “will Vince Gilligan maintain the stakes he set with the premier? Or, having thrown down the gauntlet, will he pump the brakes a little, let us catch our breath, and…
