Season 1 was covered very well. Episodes were actually discussed in full. Starting with season 2 and moreso in season 3 the discussions weren’t as episode-centric as they could have been.

For me season 3 went off the rails more than a few times in the face of unnecessary political discussions and other soap box diatribes nowhere near related to the show. Too much veering off topic... more

Canadaa month ago If you haven't watched this 20yo show before, then sure beware of occasional "spoilers". I watched the wire once and am listening to the pod alongside this time. Each host has insightful points (Van in particular) and Jemele's trivia is fun. Both do get a bit excited and rambling, but overall they do a good job of unpacking each TW episode while keeping it entertaining. The subject matter can get dark and recaps pods can be dry, but this one keeps it light when they can and fun.
Podcast Addict57 months agoMG- Incredible analysis an insight
I recently found this podcast and I am truly happy I have. The analysis of each episode and character breakdown is top notch. The perspective I have for people living in these situations in real life has changed based on their insight. I am thankful for the education you are giving me on both the show and real life.

United States7 months ago - It's like they tried to find the worst person possible!
Must of been Scraping the bottom of the barrel when they asked Hill to co-host this show about one of the greatest TV show of all time. She damages everything she touches, this pod could of been so much better!
Apple Podcasts1JediMaster DaddyUnited States8 months ago - Sopranos spoilers
I had to stop listening to this because it’s full of Sopranos spoilers (I am currently watching the Sopranos), so I recommend listening if you have already watched the Sopranos.
