The Thing That Gets You To The Thing - A Halt and Catch Fire Podcast Alex Totaro & Alex Goldstein

Welcome back to The Thing That Gets You To The Thing! This was the last episode we recorded before taking an unexpected year and a bit long hiatus.

Please enjoy this episode and let us know your thoughts as we set ourselves up to launch back in.

There are signs of life! We're back to pick up the pieces of Cameron and Donna's Mutiny, find out what's written in the stars for Joe and see if Gordon can cope with two elephants in the room. That's right: it's season 2.

It's the S1 wrap up! Featuring info we squeezed out of Christopher Cantwell on Twitter, our highlights and low(ish)lights and lots more geeky chat. No S2 spoilers, so dig in.
