Today we're discussing 2.02 Cardinal with another returning guest, Larissa! Oleg invents feminism, Philip gets electrocuted, and Elizabeth won't stop staring at people from her front lawn. Stay for random side rants about completely unrelated tv shows and the answer to whether or not Tori will finally watch The Leftovers.

And sorry for the long break in between episodes! Life gets in the way and Tori had to put her dog down (depression mode). This one goes out to sweet Lola.

SEASON 2 IS HERE! We're getting into 2.01 Comrades with our first returning guest, Kierstynn, and what an episode it is! Threesomes, 69ing, Kendall Roy's ex-wife, Mail Robot, Oleg, and doe, a deer, a female deer. There's truly something for everyone. Tune in to hear us try to make sense of the timeline, and as always, to hear us make fun of Philip.

WE’RE BACK! And diving into 1.10 Only You with our friend Izzy! We get into why this is one of the show’s best episodes, the lasting impact of Gregory and his relationship with Elizabeth, and the missed Philip/Stan fanfic opportunities.

Sidenote: Garageband stopped recording Tori’s mic audio so we had to use the mic feed from the Zoom session. Not the quality we would like, but it’ll have to do for this week.

Emma Fraser (@frazbelina) joins us this week as we dive into Safe House! Philip and Elizabeth claim to be hitting the pause button but not separating, Amador's Martha stalking goes terribly wrong, and the FBI is plotting Arkady's murder in the middle of a party while he burns his hand on a potato that exploded in the microwave. Tune in!
