Bill and Charpie wrap up a fantastic season 3 of FX's Fargo. This aggression will not stand, man. Wrench and Nikki take action against the V.M. Varga crew at a storage facility. Emmit realizes he is not food, especially not a can of Campbell's Condensed Cream of Mushroom soup that the guys can't stop talking about. Feel free to rawhide a can for us. Gloria resigns, takes back her resignation, and moves on to a higher government calling. Oh, plus Sy attends a holiday party good as new (sans cup of tea). Thanks to the cast, crew, and all involved in another entertaining season of Fargo. And thanks to all the listeners of Fargo Talks Fargo for tuning in.
The guys get into a discussion about what it all means. Important stuff, like will a Blender Bottle make a decent Margarita. The answer is yes. Fargo S3, Episode 9 "Aporia" has us moving back to symmetry in cinematography with a nice does of reflection. Charpie wonders if the crime bosses should just figure out how to forge signature rather than go through all the trouble of murder. Bill wants to know what it all means. You know, like life and stuff. Is a fake grenade nepravda? This pressing question and more happen on the episode of Fargo Talks Fargo.
Fargo's Episode 8 "Who Rules the Land of Denial" brings us back to the chilling Fargo we all know and love. After a bit of a slow play, episode 8 ramps up the body count and tension. In a start first half, we follow the journey of Nikki and Wrench as the attempt to escape the animal farm crew of Yuri, Meemo, and Nameless Dude. Bill believes many character have been in denial this season. Charpie seems to agree. We also find that Sy isn't a fan of bitter ball tea, and Emmit is ready to chat. All this is wrapped up in this episode of Fargo Talks Fargo. F*ck it Dude, let's go bowling.
The guys break down Episode 7 "The Law of Inevitability" on this episode of Fargo Talks Fargo. Both Bill and Charpie go back and forth about what they think Nikki Swango is really up to. And what's up with that bear? Why is VM opening the gifts? Sy breaks down during his Mr. Rogers work to home clothing swap, but shows his heartfelt humanity during the process. Gloria and Winnie deal with idiot men (no shocker there). All this and more. Enjoy!
Bill and Charpie dive into the world that is the first episode of season 3 of Fargo "The Law of Vacant Places". Bill can't help but continue the trend of Big Lebowski references and makes some strange prognostications (STFU Bill...er...Donny). Charpie holds down the sanity of the episode with memories of Red Owl bags. Was Ennis watching season 2 of Fargo on his tv? Was that really a Hugo award? Will Bill and Charpie ever figure out how to play Bridge? All these burning questions will be sort of answered on this episode of Fargo Talks Fargo. It's time to set the scene, eh? You betcha!
Bill and Charpie are back for what will be another fantastic season of FX's Fargo and Fargo Talks Fargo. This season kicks offs with a few changes from the guys about the full show breakdowns moving to Sunday recordings and release. Both are happy to see the Fargo cast and crew off the a great start. East Berlin? AC units falling from the sky? More crime and murder? Sounds like another good time on Fargo to us. Thanks to our sponsor for this season, Fargo Brewing Company. Visit their taproom, plan a trip and get here...just do it. You won't regret it. Woodchipper IPA is the stuff. They do cool stuff by supporting our podcast.
Grab a glass of Chablis and sit down for some hotdish with us. We learn how Ed and Peggy got Dodd to take a dysfunctional family trip with them after much prodding. Hanzee is on the hunt again and will go to great lengths to find out what happened to Dodd. Hank and Lou discover the leftovers from the Blomquist basement bash. All this and more on this week's hotdish with Fargo Talks Fargo.
This week we break down the each of the "wars" that Charpie sees happening in "Fear and Trembling" on FX's Fargo. Lou is a bit lost about how to be around Betsy, Dodd reveals his possible protege, and Floyd makes her counter offer. Dodd, Simon, and Peggy all seem to be throwing a wrench in the gears as thing build to a head. Hanzee is on the hunt and encounters Karl and Mad Dog. All this and an unexpected thumb on Fargo Talks Fargo.
Bill and Charpie recap Episode 2 "Before the Law." Joining the Fargo Talks Fargo crew this week is Joe Riley from grillingaddiction.com. A longer episode garners a longer recap so settle in for insights into Kafka's "Before the Law", Bill's continued theory on the color of clothing, and our great appreciation for the tension created with Mike and Hank on a lonely Minnesota road. We all seem to agree that Mike Milligan is going to be a fantastic character to watch this season if he avoids the meat grinder.
Welcome back to a new season of FX's Fargo and another season of Fargo Talks Fargo podcast. In a preseason show, Bill and Charpie chat about the upcoming season's cast and trailer. Both guys are excited about the new season. Bill tells of his soft spot for Brad Garrett and Charpie makes an early call for Miller's Crossing references.
Bill and Charpie break down Episode 8 The Heap in this episode of Fargo Talks Fargo. Lester has some "out with the old in with the new" in this episode, Molly makes a case with Bill again, Budge and Pepper find new circumstances, Ida and Molly chat, and other plot points. Then Noah Hawley chucks in a bit of an unexpected curveball that shifts the story. Charpie rocks a rant about red sauce and midwest white sauce for tacos. We talk about sorites paradox as well as Detective Kitty O'Day. Through it all, Bill is convinced of the soft heart of Bill Oswalt. Files are grains of sand in The Heap or are they characters in the show?
Julie Ann Emery, who plays Ida Thurman, joins us for another special episode of Fargo Talks Fargo. We chat with Julie Ann about her experience on the show, learning to ditch a Tennessee accent for a Minnesota accent, and insights into Ida. Julie Ann also discusses a few of her other projects with us. So check out this episode as well as her other work.
Tom Musgrave, who plays Bo Munk on Fargo, joins us for a special episode of Fargo Talks Fargo. We meant to chat about Episode 7 with Tom, but had such a fantastic time talking with Tom about his time on the show that is we cut it into it's own episode. Tom hails from Valley City, ND which is about an hour from Fargo and also attended college in the Fargo-Moorhead area. We hear about Tom's audition process, his work on the show, and his experiences.
Noah Hawley really has a thing for flashbacks and we get another in the beginning. Bill suggests Lorne is yet another animal. Lester is a festering in jail with his new buddies and we finally find out more about the Mitvah Tank. This and so much more on this episode of the Hotdish from Fargo Talks Fargo. As a bonus we introduce a new way to get $1 off a beer at Fargo Brewing Company's tap room. Have a listen to find out how or follow us on Facebook/Twitter.
Greg Carlson joins the Fargo Talks Fargo show this week to talk about Episode 1 of Fargo. The panel dives into the episode title and waxes intellectual about what it all means. We break down scenes and discuss what is up with the deer in the trunk. Bits of Fargo (the movie) are spotted throughout the episode. Charpie loves the sound of ham being rubbed and questions if Rachel Ray would really give that kind of advice. In the end, we ask the great question about who will die next.
