Decoding Devs: Episode 9 The End of the Tramline
Sad sigh. Here it is. Our final episode of Decoding Devs in which we attempt to wrap it all up. Color theory. The Hero's Journey. Windows. Names. Favorite characters? Favorite montage? And as always a couple of tangents as we say goodbye to this remarkable show. Thank you all for listening! We've had a great time and hope you have too!

Decoding Devs: Episode 8
After an unexpected but needed pause, WE ARE BACK to break down "Devs" Episode 8, the series finale. We have many thoughts to share on the characters, the music, how it all came together and how we feel about how it all came together. Plus a bonus, off-topic rant! What more could you ask for?! So download your consciousness and join us!

Decoding Devs: Episode 7
We're in the end game now. Episode 7 of "Devs", the penultimate episode, stressed us out, but what a tour de force. What is up with the opening montage which, even for "Devs", is a stand out. We learn the fates of a few of our characters. We become even bigger fans of Stewart. We learn just how committed our Devs staffers are to their theories. Grab yourself a glass of water with lemon and join us!

Decoding Devs: Episode 6
We're back to analyze episode 6 of "Devs". This may be a highly expository episode, but that doesn't make it any less compelling. Has a frisbee ever been more thought-provoking? Has a pen ever looked more stabby? Has my Jily (or are we going with "Lamie"?) ship finally set sail? Join us at the dining room table as we ask all the questions.

Decoding Devs: Episode 5
Episode 5 of "Devs" is...maybe my favorite? Difficult to say because they're all so good, but this one ranks near the top. In it we examine more closely the Many Worlds angle, important moments from our characters' pasts, and how the Devs project developed. Who gets this episode's best monologue? How much more can we talk about color theory? Do bent limbs have a higher meaning? Have I finally reached the point where even Collin thinks I'm crazy? Come on in and find out!

Decoding Devs: Episode 4
Thank you for listening! This time it's all about "Devs: Episode 4". We break down another fascinating opening montage, Lyndon's BIG discovery, the result of Lily's attempted deception, and OF COURSE adorable Jamie gets our full attention as always. What do we think it all means? Join us in this one of Many Worlds and find out!
Customer Reviews
Thank you for Such Detail!
I started watching DEVS this week because of the Post Show Recap podcast about the show Severance. They are doing a monthly episode where they vote on watching another show that feels Severance adjacent, and they voted for DEVS. I never heard of the show until this vote and since Severance is amazing I’m totally interested in something related.
So I’m on episode 2 of DEVS. I could tell I was gonna need a companion podcast because of how dense the show is. I’m only half way through your first episode and I’m impressed. If it weren’t for you both, I’d have missed so many details. I had no idea how much meaning lies in the music and placement of everything. I’ll definitely be paying more attention and maybe even rewatch the first two episodes.
They way you two discuss the details reminds me of another podcast that covers the German show, Dark, on Netflix. I’m curious if you have seen that show because it’s a three season show that has so many metaphors and everything has meaning from shapes, colors, music etc. It was obviously written as one story and planned out into three seasons. I’m wondering if you’ve seen it because I think you both would appreciate it.
I’m looking forward to finishing this show! Thank you for this podcast:)
Great Podcast
Thanks so much for covering this show. I also appreciate the musical perspective that you bring to the table, as a musician and music lover myself.
Yesss!!!
How does this pod have no reviews?!? Just started Devs and was looking for a deep dive podcast covering each ep. so glad I found y’all!! Still on first pod, but can already tell y’all are my people!
