There is a lot of content in the world. Each year, we are inundated with thousands of hours of television, hundreds of movies, and new music every week ... it can be overwhelming. How do you know what's worth your time and what you should just skip?



Pod Clubhouse is here to help!



We've taken the idea of PopCultureReview's written column, "Love It or Leave It?" and brought it into the 21st Century! "Love It or Leave It?: The Podcast" is your guide to what you absolutely need to see (or hear) and what is pure dumpster fire trash (and everywhere in between)!

Paul and Sheila recently had the opportunity to chat with Nick Antosca and Robin Veith from Hulu's new miniseries Candy. Nick, the show's creator has also created recent streaming favorites, like The Act and Brand New Cherry Flavor. Robin, the series' showrunner, has written for shows ranging from Mad Men to The Expanse. They describe how they decided that Candy's bizarre tale of unleashed rage matched their own desires for storytelling, as well as other interesting aspects of the production.

In our continuing coverage of NBC’s The Thing About Pam, Stef, Sheila, and Colleen bring you an in-depth discussion about episode 6, She’s A Killer. 

Finale time! This is a jam-packed episode. The foundation set in episode 5 is paying off this episode, with Pam further unraveling to the point of self-sabotage and murder (again). We've talked in prior episodes that Dateline was like its own character in this show and that is so evident in this episode. We question Pam's motives in trying to frame Russ (again) and how spectacularly it backfires on her with all the delicious irony that accompanies her downfall. This is one of those times you see karma in action and we are here for it! Join in the twisty plot with us as we talk about The Thing About Pam one last time!

THE THING ABOUT PAM -- "She's Not Who You Think She Is" Episode 105 -- Pictured: (l-r) Renée Zellweger as Pam Hupp, Rachael Thompson as Tina -- (Photo by: Skip Bolen/NBC)



In our continuing coverage of NBC’s The Thing About Pam, Stef, Sheila, and Colleen bring you an in-depth discussion about episode 5, She’s Not Who You Think She Is.



This is the penultimate episode folks! Only one more hour left in this tale about Pam and her bananas story. Seriously, this real-life story sounds more made up than most of the fiction out there. We see Pam starting to become ... unhinged. She's still winning left and right, but she's starting to feel the walls closing in on her. As Dateline presses on her, Leah reveals Pam's fate if the people of Troy elect another District Attorney. Mundane events turn into epic showdowns, and even Mr. Hupp pushes back, leaving Pam feeling twitchy. We dive into yet another trial where Pam heavily features. Betsy's daughter's growth in this episode comes up a lot in this podcast as we try to deflect the spotlight away from Pam. We talk about how this episode appears to set us up for the inevitable train wreck finish for next week's finale. Join in the twisty plot with us as we talk about The Thing About Pam!

THE THING ABOUT PAM -- "She's a Loving Daughter" Episode 104 -- Pictured: Renée Zellweger as Pam Hupp -- (Photo by: Skip Bolen/NBC)



In our continuing coverage of NBC’s The Thing About Pam, Stef, Sheila, and Colleen bring you an in-depth discussion about episode 4, "She’s a Loving Daughter".

 

There were fascinating themes in this episode around control and the dynamic between mothers and daughters. We dive deep into both of these as we see Joel doing some fine work when he successfully motioned for a retrial with justice for Russ finally! Leah needs distance between her strategy and Pam, now seeing her as unreliable, but not a liar. We're still scratching our heads over the new details Pam opted to share for the retrial. We take a trip in the way-back machine for a glimpse at Pam's origin story, which is as icky as you think it might be. Pam's relationship with both her daughter and mother is strained in this episode, all by Pam's doing. And when is Betsy going to get justice in this town?! Join in the twisty plot with us as we talk about The Thing About Pam!

THE THING ABOUT PAM -- "She's a Star Witness" Episode 103 -- Pictured: Josh Duhamel as Joel Schwartz -- (Photo by: Skip Bolen/NBC)



In our continuing coverage of NBC’s The Thing About Pam, Stef, Sheila, and Colleen bring you an in-depth discussion about episode 3, She’s a Star Witness. The manipulation in this episode by Leah and by Pam of their prey leaves us feeling a little unsettled. There’s still 50% of the show left and we have just wrapped up Russ’s cockamamie trial. (Looking around for appeal judges everywhere in this episode) The small town …inexperience and corruption … were center stage in this episode. This point in the story has us really wanting to know what else Pam has in store for us. Her testimony just left us shaking our heads in disbelief.
