If you wanted to know what the directors, producers, actors/actresses, special effects, writers, and other teams were thinking when they made this show, this is the podcast for you. It is nice to put voices and thoughts to the people making this series on the screen. Honestly, as the show has gone on, the show is more like inspired by Foundation instead of based on Foundation. The TV series takes many different turns and outright becomes the antithesis of the books at various points. I think every series or film based on a different medium has both difficulties and opportunities in expressing the work. I disagree with many of the choices but this podcast is not the show and does a good job of being what a companion podcast should be. I wish the podcast did address more of the divergences from the source material and had more of a retrospective at the end of the season. Too much of the focus is hyping up various mysteries of the season.

While these podcast episodes might not be as well produced as the HBO ones it still handles it with great care of getting behind the scenes.

Absolutely great program. Can’t wait for the next season and for ongoing programs.

Title says it all. I stumbled across the show a few days ago and I’ve already completed both seasons. The anticipation for the third season is now writhing inside me, can’t wait!

Podcast is good but Gaal actress has been posting support for Hamas (the terrorist organization) on social media. Docking points for sympathizing with terrorists.

I can’t watch it anymore it was good because it’s gone too woke!

Just long enough to casually enjoy and keep up with. Sometimes podcasts about shows are full of bloat and their too long. This one is focused and consistently produced. Worth a listen.

No.

There are some gender and race changes from the books and then they try to justify it and it just turns into a racist mess

Woah. Let me start by saying that Foundation, the show, is absolutely phenomenal. I always love a good sci-fi, but this one grabbed me more quickly and with a premise I have found way more intriguing than a lot of other shows I’ve given a shot. But this isn’t a review of the show. I saw mention of this podcast after some way in to season 1 and thought, eh, I need something to listen to while doing the dishes after the kids go to bed… I’ll give it a shot! The host and show-runner have a chemistry that makes this an absolutely charming addition to watching Foundation! Every episode shows adoration for the material and what kept me coming back is seeing the absolute passion that has been put in to their work! The deep dives of the messages behind the story and where things might go make you listen, but the passion you hear and feel from all of those involved in this project make you want to stay! It is an easy and strong recommendation for anyone who has enjoyed the show - a perfect companion piece to enhance your viewing and stir discussion! As always… respect and enjoy the peace!
