Summary
We catch up after a backlog of episodes and announce we’ll cover Your Friends and Neighbors on Fridays going forward, while previewing upcoming discussions on The Pit finale, Euphoria, Beef season 2, Richard Gadd’s Half Man, and future Apple TV+ series Cape Fear and Lucky, plus a forthcoming Patreon with extra content (including our Nolan film rewatch). We also share a tip to subscribe to creator subscriptions via a browser to avoid App Store cuts. In our conversation about Your Friends and Neighbors season 2 episode 2 (“Lady Parts”), we largely dislike the episode, criticize the show’s focus on the kids and uneven writing, question sympathy for Sam after framing Coop, and dissect implausible money-manager math around Barney and Coop. The main intrigue is Ash (James Marsden) discovering Coop’s crimes, which we hope will drive the season, alongside film/book references like Night of the Hunter, Sweet Smell of Success, and Edith Wharton. mailto:[email protected] 00:00 Show Welcome 01:05 Upcoming Episodes 02:29 Patreon Tease 03:44 Subscription Fee Tip 07:11 Sona Joins In 07:47 Cape Fear Memories 09:55 Episode Two Reactions 11:07 Ash Catches Coop 13:25 Show Themes And Stakes 17:28 Too Much Teen Drama 21:53 Sam Party Fallout 29:45 Lady Parts Locker Room 31:47 High School Plot Complaints 33:19 Mel Midlife Spiral 34:24 Tori Rejects Princeton 36:03 No Plan No Sympathy 39:50 Coop Enables The Chaos 40:09 Barney Money Math Fails 44:06 Countywide Burglary Clarity 46:25 What Works On Screen 50:47 Movie And Book Clues 56:47 Laser Rejuvenation Talk 57:47 Dog Poop Neighbor Drama 01:01:32 Next Week Podcast Picks
