Looking for Jim’s take? Sometimes, making predictions about where Breaking Bad is going seems like folly. Like the Villigan sits back and reads message boards, internet sites, and email (he’s obviously too busy to listen to podcasts, hehe) and just cackles about how far off we are. Even with the leaked episode mini-synopsis we’ve had,…
I’ve got an unusually fat Friday news post! First up, a relatively fascinating piece I found on the concept of “toxic masculinity” at the provocatively named Jezebel.com. Gender issues is of personal interest to me, I like examining how concepts of privilege shade our day to day lives, and to look at other people’s perspectives differ from…
Tricky Nicky is BACK, and breaking down the Jersey Shore with the help of AK47 and introducing the lovely Charismatic. In this week Mike becomes the Situation once again, Snooki’s kid just don’t know, Deena has a near smush with a sister kisser, The Paulie D and Vinnie comedy hour, and man-made tits. If you…
The question of Gus’s sexuality has been a hot topic on the internet this week. I found this article interesting, as it is written by an openly gay man, and he expresses frustration at Vince Gilligan for being sort of wishy washy on his take on the subject as heard on the Breaking Bad Insider…
Sorry about yesterday. The good news is, I did get a lot of work done, and Casa A.Ron has functional indoor plumbing once more. The bad news is all the crawling around in crawl spaces and hefting big ass water tanks and softner systems has wrecked my body. I’m not quite at Hank level immobility,…
I have some legitimately bad news to break today, as my well’s pressure tank basically exploded yesterday, flooding my garage and leaving me without the all important H2O. Consequently, I’m taking the day off to replace it. If the task goes quick enough, I’ll post later on today, if not, I’ll do a super-sized news…
Hope everyone had a safe and happy Labor Day. Jim and I were hard at work making podcasts in the lab, and this is the latest result. We talk about all things Gus, Jesse’s shirt, Chilean history, perfect storms, the significance of eyeballs, and more listener feedback than you can shake a GPS tracker at.
I think we were all pretty shocked by Jesse’s shirt this week. You either love it or you hate it. If you love it, you can click the picture below to get your very own. If you hate it… well, you could buy one to burn, I guess. Or just skip this article. Xzavier Da…
Happy Labor Day! I hope everyone is enjoying some hard won time off with friends and family. In case you missed it, Jim and I dished a whole lot of BrBa content out last night. First, there was our new, experimental audio instant review. Then, we did our traditional instant takes. Here is mine, and…
Looking for A.Ron’s review? It’s fitting that so much of this episode centered around Gustavo Fring because it is very much like him in a lot of ways. On the surface it seems to be a standard (though especially tense) episode of Breaking Bad, just as Gus appears to be a standard chicken peddler and…
