    Episode 14: Take This Sabbath Day

    Oh boy. Listen to Joe and Anthony discuss everyone’s favorite topic...Capital Punishment. We know what you’re thinking...What fun! To be fair we try to inject some fun on occasion. We also discuss stripping, going to work drunk, cutting off from technology, and interior design. But yeah, it’s mostly a lot of talk about state sanctioned killing. Sorry. Blame Sorkin.

    And he shall from time to time, tell us about his trip to Korea. Um what? Yeah. We also talk about India and Pakistan, the President’s illness, and the nature of friendship. But let’s be honest, all you really want to know is what Anthony is doing in Korea. And which Korea is it?

GoldenSunGuy ,

Thank God!

I LOOOOOVE the West Wing and honestly I don't really like any of the podcasts that are out there. And there seem to be a lot now that Mr Will Bailey himself has one. In any event this is the BEST one. They discuss the episodes and their themes in SO MUCH DEPTH. I love how they pick apart all the things all of the other podcasts completely miss. They don't give a simple review, though they could stand to do a little more of that. They, instead, get into larger themes the episodes bring up as well as discuss how Mr Sorkin is able to write the complex world that allows those themes to play out. Keep it up guys. Looking for more.
