    EP16 | Pharos (Outlander S8 E9)

    Diana G. herself wrote this one, the penultimate episode of Outlander! She has only written a few episodes throughout the whole series, so hopes were high that this would be a dialed hour of TV. Robin and Michelle discuss why they thought it worked in this episode of the pod. They also go on some epic history side-quests early on, so grab a dram and dust off your history-brain, Time Travelers, we're diving right in. Can you change the outcome of history by impacting key individuals? Tune it for Robin as she opines! Fear not, we circle it back to the sexual tension between Jamie and John–it could fuel a trip to the moon! Enjoy this episode of the podcast, and hey, while you are at it–please honor us with a rating and a review on your listening app of choice? The algorithm is starving for some attention. Much appreciated!

    E14 | In the Forest (Outlander S8E8)

    This was Season 8's Golden Episode, and it sure lived up to that title! Written by show creator Ronald D. Moore, this Ridge-focused episode had humor, hugs, montages (naturally) and lots of great scenes with Jamie. The acting in this episode stood out, but so did an apparent cameo with historical figure Johnathon Edwards, a looming Presbyterian minister of the period. And maybe one day soon we'll get to discuss Outlander without bringing up dead babies...but, not today! Because our episode includes a discussion of death by suicide being viewed as sin and the real consequences that has led to. Including a tragic phenomenon called "Suicide by Proxy." But this episode of the pod is 90% cheery because it really is a heartwarming Outlander episode. Enjoy!

    E13 | Evidence of Things Not Seen (Outlander S8 E7)

    OUR SPOILER-FREE EPISODE BRIEF: For such a dark and twisty episode of Outlander, Robin and Michelle had a lot of fun dissecting this one. We get existential and cover big questions like, "When does a relationship with a fictional character cross the line?" and "What does a show creator owe its fan base?" and "What is up with the Outlander fan base?!" Bonus Bibles, sexy knees, and some of the best acting Outlander has ever seen are also covered. Join us in not taking ourselves—or Outlander—too seriously. The podcast episode is nothing but spoilers. Proceed as you wish.
