Widow's Bay, "We Hope You Enjoyed Your Time"
It’s the end of tourist season on Widow’s Bay, so for now The Watchers are packing up, saying goodbye to our new island pals, and breaking down the season finale, “We Hope You Enjoyed Your Time!” We're talking Ruth’s whole deal, Tom’s variously questionable choices, Evan’s place in the Warren line, and a return to Andrea’s favorite segment, Hatch Watch. Plus, an important reminder: older women know everything.Next week, we’re heading back into the kitchen for the final season of The Bear and checking in on Carmy, Sydney, Richie, and the rest of our beautiful, stressed-out friends.If you're reading this, that means you've probably got your podcatcher of choice open right now.

Widow's Bay "Emergency Shelter"
This week, The Watchers are hunkering down for the penultimate episode of Widow’s Bay, "Emergency Shelter." Jodie and Andrea talk storm shelter, Rosemary’s tastefully titillating genealogy presentation, Tom’s wrestling match with the island's ancestry, Dale in doorways, and all the weird time stuff we’re tracking before the finale. Also: Nor’easters, shit-talking Martha’s Vineyard, and the new game that's sweeping the nation: “Dead Baby, Dead Baby Lesbian.”If you're reading this, that means you've probably got your podcatcher of choice open right now.

Widow's Bay, "Your Baggage"
Widow's Bay gets the Haddonfield treatment (Jersey? Illinois? Yes.) as Jodie and Andrea review the show's slasher turn, "Your Baggage." We talk Wyck playing third wheel, Patricia becoming the Final Girl she was always meant to be, and the way a simple "GO SOX" is the key to any good New England boy’s heart.Referenced in this ep:On Widow’s Bay, Is There Anything Kate O’Flynn Can’t Do?Ways to support the detainees at Delaney HallEmail Congress: No More Funding for ICERead: Don’t Give Up: A Letter From Delaney HallSupport Families at Delaney Hall with Food4NJ.orgIf you're reading this, that means you've probably got your podcatcher of choice open right now.

Widow's Bay, "What to Expect on Your Trip"
The Watchers are back from their 12-hour trip, just in time for Widow’s Bay, Episode 5, “What to Expect on Your Trip.” Tom takes the island’s very special mushrooms, Patricia proves she is absolutely not the right trip sitter, Wyck and Jerri find a clue (a clue!), and Evan reminds us that this show is spiritually set in Jersey by engaging in some of our time-honored traditions. Hanging out in a car, ghost hunting, and daring each other to knock on the doors of homes that belong to potential psychopaths.Next week, we’re back with Episodes 6 and 7, “Our History" and "Seasickness"If you're reading this, that means you've probably got your podcatcher of choice open right now.

Widow's Bay, "Beach Reads" (plus a recap of episodes 1 - 3)
This week, The Watchers take the ferry out to Widow’s Bay. We review Episodes 1 - 3. Some fog, a haunted inn, a sea hag, and the Stephen King and Weird NJ vibes baked deep into the DNA of Katie Dippold's outstanding new show. Then we recap Episode 4, “Beach Reads,” where the immediately beloved Patricia and a cursed book throw us a party we'll never forget. Next week, we're back with the Andrew DeYoung-directed episode, "What to Expect on your Trip."If you're reading this, that means you've probably got your podcatcher of choice open right now.

The Pitt "8:00 P.M." Season 2, Episode 14
DISCLAIMER: We recorded this episode before the finale. We're leaving in some obviously wrong predictions because we're very brave and not afraid to be wrong on the Internet.
