Show Notes

This week, Blaine gives a welcome to listeners and lays out the format for anyone new -- as well as small request (0:01).

After a quick hello to Adam and Donovan, Blaine explains to them in the non-spoiler section on why 'Dope Thief' on Apple TV+ could be the next must watch piece of TV (1:11). After that, it's a few cursory thoughts on where 'The White Lotus' is at this point with no spoilers (8:01).

Coming back from a thirty-second break, it is time for spoilers: in this segment, the hosts get into specifically what is still improving with 'The White Lotus' (12:10) and how 'Severance' answers questions, poses new ones, and intentionally stays ambiguous on other issues (34:53).
