Jim and A.Ron try to round up Westworld’s latest episode, “The Stray”, but corralling the big ideas this show brings to the table is proving to be quite a challenge. We appreciate the focus on the “human” element of Westworld, getting much more backstory for Bernard and Dr. Ford. But how straight a shooter is Dr. Ford? How much of his tale is fact, and how much of it carefully curated legend, intended to deceive both Bernard and the audience? Wheels within wheels!

Halt and Catch Fire season 3 has come to an end, and by God, it deserves a ton of credit for being awesome. The character growth, the intrinsic love story, the shoutout to Al Gore- it all adds up to a satisfying ride with some of our favorite characters on television. The best news? A final season has been announced for this show, which means that we get to have real closure with these characters sometime next year. Tell your friends, more people need to be watching this show!
Jim and A.Ron have a lot to say about the second episode of HBO’s new hit series, Westworld, entitled “Chestnut”. We talk a lot about the developing characters and mysteries of the show, trying to figure out what Bernard and Dr. Ford are up to, while trying to understand the motives and mind of Dolores.

And hey, we got lots of feedback, theories, and analysis by our dashing and witty listeners!

Lots of character growth in another great episode of Halt and Catch Fire and there are still two episodes left. Can Donna recover from the latest blow to Mutiny? How will Joe handle the death of a friend? And most importantly, can the moth-plagued wardrobe of Cameron hold together long enough to make it to Japan? There’s still plenty of runtime left to get the answers.
Jim and A.Ron are incredibly impressed with the first episode of HBO’s new sci-fi western, Westworld. It was one of the best pilots we’ve ever seen, packing an amazing amount of mystery and world-building in just one hour, laying a great foundation for the rest of first season. We discuss our relative comfort with the co
Jim and A.Ron sign off for 2016 on Mr. Robot, before turning our attention to Westworld, Halt and Catch Fire, and American Horror Story. But first we have to wrap things up with some final thoughts and a bunch of new listener theories and analysis. Hope to see you around on some of our current and future endeavors, but if not, we’ll be back next year for season three!
It’s a doozy of a final board room scene in this episode of HACF, and not everyone leaves unscathed. One of the two hosts of this podcast thought this was the best episode of the show yet, and one of us…disagreed. Regardless, between the passive aggressive drama, Boz breaking down, and the Joe-like machinations of (mastermind?) Gordon, the stage is set for a rip-roarin’ final three episodes. Color us excited!
