Most comprehensive breakdown

Can’t say enough good things about this pod. So much insight that is needed when watching this incredible show. They really take the time to dig in and find call backs to previous seasons or Coen bros movies. Has been a joy to listen while watching. I truly appreciate the time and effort put into this pod.
