Questions from the audience
I would like this radio show to have a regular segment where the hosts answer letters from the listeners. Please and thank you
Ostensibly.....
Oh man! This pod has it all! For being not a huge baseball fan, I either learn tons about the sport or can enjoy some wonderfully off topic rants, tangents, or conceptually intriguing fantasies. Lebron was definitely chugging tequila with some dolphins this last season.
More True Detective Answers Please
Thanks for explaining the plot of True Detective Season 3. I watched all of it and definitely didn’t follow, so the explainer clarifies most of my questions. I have a few left I’d appreciate you touching on in a future podcast. They are as follows:
- What happened to Wayne’s wife? She just isn’t there. Did she leave or die?
- Wayne was always recording thoughts he didn’t want to forget. Why didn’t he record his theory on the MAJOR BREAK in the case? Or call white cop? He’s always awake and drinking.
- Was the prosecutor from 1980 and AG in 90 a bad dude? It felt like they were building to some reveal, but then nothing came from it.
- What was the point of the flashback to Vietnam to end the show?
Answers would be appreciated. This podcast is awesome. I’d pay money to listen to it, but don’t have to...yet.
