Jade is solo this week as she recaps Season 2, Episode 6 "A Thousand Little Trees of Blood" of the hit HBO series 'Euphoria.' Rue is home and starts the recovery process. Lexi is having second thoughts about her play, Cassie continues to spiral as she deals with the aftermath of her secret relationship with Nate being outted, and Nate is finally free from his dad. And Maddy? Maddy is plotting their downfall. During her recap, Jade shares her initial thoughts of the episode.

Friend to the pod and 'Queued Up' co-host from season 1, Holly Lewis is back to help break down the start of the second half of Season 2 of 'Euphoria' with a recap of Episode 5, "Stand Still Like the Hummingbird." This fifth episode started out with a bang. Jade and Holly can both agree that they were both sitting at the edge of their seat watching in suspense and a bit of fear seeing Rue burn down her bridges of support as she tries to run away from herself and going to rehab. The two break down the episode into 3 parts: The Intervention, The Chase, and Lori, discussing if Jules actually loves Rue, Maddy FINALLY finding out about Nate and Cassie, The Chase being a dream sequence, and Lori's actual intentions with Rue.

This week Jade is solo as she recaps episode 3 of 'Euphoria' called "Ruminations: Big and Little Bullys."
