Welcome to Basic Cable! Where we watch TV indiscriminately, and are desperate to talk about it. We'll cover MTV reality, HBO dramas, and pretty much anything in between. Get in tough with us @basiccablepod on Twitter and basiccablepod@gmail.com
guys.
Listeners of Basic Cable that love the show mention: carlie, lucas,Lucas' fan-favorite chicken sandwich review segment continues at Del Taco. Which weird-looking cast member of House of the Dragon does Carlie think is hot? Don't Worry Darling drama and the NFL returns.
Basic Cable is back like we left something. Lucas and Carlie review chicken sandwiches and HBO's new Game of Thrones spinoff the House of the Dragon. Thanks for joining us.
Oh wow, you know what they say about riding a bike? Podcasting after an eight month hiatus is not like that. But Lucas and I got back on the mic to talk about some shows that frankly, just didn't do it for us, and shared what's been on our TV minds since April. It's not perfect, but when is Basic Cable ever the pinnacle of fine audio production? Bear with us as we get out podcast legs back. Special thanks to J, for being my expert of the week on all things FA!
Who knew Amy Schumer would have such a delightful cooking show? WE DID. Because her schtick is LITERALLY just Basic Cable in the kitchen. We cover a ton of trash TV that's in no way good for us, and then Carlie's excellent mom returns for a quick segment about the return of Detective Elliot Stabler to a TV near you. Carlie and Katie also talk about the most recent developments to the Varsity Blues scandal -- there's really something for everyone!
Heyyo, welcome to day 3846238 of quarantine! Have you managed to watch every single show on every single platform yet? Of COURSE NOT. There are too many choices so of course you're just falling back on the comfort shows you can visualize with your eyes closed. But fear not, we're here to walk you through of Netflix's newest offerings like Too Hot to Handle, Outer Banks and the delightful Never Have I Ever. We're happy to be back so listen, share and send us an email saying hey! Email basiccablepod@gmail.comInstagram: @basiccablepodTwitter: @basiccablepod
Carlie and Lucas make their triumphant return to the pod after a long, strange trip with our new friend Vladimir Skyrizzi. We chat Jeopardy, The Challenge, Michael Jordan and The Last Dance. Carlie reveals her Grey's Anatomy misery index and friend of the show Matt Ski returns with a Netflix recommendation. We're so glad to be back. Thanks for sticking with us.
Happy Turkey (Boi) Day, Basic Nation! Our main man Matt Ski reviews The Mandolorian. (2:00) Carlie and Lucas' relationship barely survives Thanksgiving Dinner as we break down the pop culture we're most thankful for this year. Spoiler alert: It's mostly pizza and Baby Yoda-related material. Apologies in advance for my (Lucas') awful burp -- it was really unintentional. Happy Holidays! We hope your sharing your time (and this podcast) with all of your friends and family.

How does this series finale rank among some of the best and worst finales of all time? How is King Bran the Broken (We do not feel good about that nickname) getting around Kings Landing? Just a few of the very serious and important Game of Thrones takes from Carlie and Lucas on this week's episode. This the last we'll talk this much about GoT, so either savor it, or get excited about our return to regular content next week.
The world joins Lucas in player-hating on Game of Thrones. Are the showrunners/writers sexist? Is everyone just ready to move on? Best and worst moments from "The Bells." Lucas supports war criminals. He's Just Not That In2 You: John and Dany. Lucas gives a 100 percent accurate prediction of next week's finale. Carlie struggles to pronounce a word she invented.
Game of Thrones, Episode 4, "The Last of the Starks." WTF is going on? Carlie and Lucas chat about life after the Battle of Winterfell, what our heroes really want, and a look ahead at the final episodes of GoT.
Umm...so that happened. We'll update this description with more info later as to not spoil anyone coming to this page before they've seen the episode, but suffice to say -- we have FEELINGS about Episode Three (still yet unnamed on our HBO Go app). Were any of our predictions right? Did this battle make Lucas happy or sad? Both? Did Carlie sweat off her self-tanner that she stupidly applied right before this episode? Get all your dragon-fire burning questions answered NOW!
Recording this week's episode proved harder than Jamie getting everyone in Winterfell to forgive him! These long episodes are no joke, and we aren't even ready for next week's epic battle. But before next week, we get a love letter from Benioff and Weiss in the form of 20+ scenes with a myriad of different character combos. We get great speeches, OMG moments, and moments that guarantee a character will die next week. We rank them from worst to best, then talk about the little plot that happened this week and what might happen in episode 3. Listen, review, share, contact us!

Lucas thinks Elizabeth Holmes is the hero of "The Inventor," methinks he missed the point of the story. Ya know, of her compromising people's health. (46:05) Losers is a loser (even though we love you Surya Bonaly!) and finally -- the ball is tipped..what's the next line? MARCH SADNESS IS HERE!

Heyoo, I know -- you want more Katie, but unfortunately she only watches Hogan's Heroes, Perry Mason and The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel -- so she simply can't take his place.

We finally did it -- we had our first remote guest on the show. And who better to join us than Carlie's mom, Katie. Katie is the most hilarious person we know, and is due for some time on BC. You won't be hearing much from ya boy Lucas this week, sorry, but Katie more than makes up for it. We talk all things MMM from the first two episodes, and there was A LOT to cover, from our relationship to Amy Sherman-Palladino shows, to whether Midge is even a likable character. Buckle up, there are some hot takes here, and some not hot ones (like -- who really likes Joel?), but we had a blast all the same. Make sure you let us know how much you love the show!

We're thinking of you Mr. + Mrs. Sitch! (2:55) Diving in to the first two episodes of True Detective Season 3.

(28:00) We start an on-going thread of important plots to follow, and what we know has happened in the last 30 years between the three timelines?

SPOILER ALERT FOR THE CHALLENGE FINALE. Woah, what a not shocking final, that shockingly left us with a 11 minutes worth of thoughts. We discuss if this final was really all the grueling, what, if anything the contestants could have done differently, and what does it say about the franchise that Smashley is now the biggest money winner of the game? And not that we like Hunter, but doesn't it seem unfair that he ate the most but got edged out on time? IDK. Let's talk about it, get it out of our system, and get ready for Season 33.

Lucas doesn't quite get it, but he will. (38:15)Reach out! Tell us how we can make this show better and better! Email - basiccablepod@gmail.comTwitter- @basiccablepodInstagram - @basiccablepod
E Plurbis Trashy! Welcome to an all new episode of Basic Cable! We recorded most of this in the dark, which should have no affect on the audio quality, but we felt like you should know. (2:08) Because Lucas can't help himself, we start this episode with him wanting to change the name of the News You Can't use segment. In this segment, which shall remain News You Can't Use until my body is six feet under, (3:39) we talk about the massive ratings slide for the Walking Dead, and I give an amazing series recap for someone who's never seen the show.

(37:12) POWER'S OUT! (37:52) A wonderful bit of the week that should not be spoiled.
Lucas is back at it again, taking the reins and editing this weeks' episode. We spend a few minutes on some news you can't use, including a massive let down from Connie Britton, get all up in the 90 Day Fiance finale, chat about why Carlie didn't love this week's The Good Place, give our latest theories on Manifest, and then let Lucas take us on a weird adventure through the what-ifs of The Sopranos. It got weird, y'all.
Hey, hey, hey, what's up party people. It's your boy Lucas here. Carlie has left me in charge of the episode description this week. We blab about a bunch a crap, Carlie interrupts me a lot and demands a marriage proposal. I carry the show -- ya know, the usual. We kick it off with some News You Can't Use (2:30), then get into Manifest (9:29). That's followed by a riveting discussion of This is THE Us (15:54). The Good Place is back! (21:26). We briefly touch on Maniac (25:10) before we question whether Kim from Better Call Saul is dead (25:30). Enjoy -- we love you!
