Aramide Tinubu (Television Critic, Variety) and Kate Erbland (Editorial Director, IndieWire) join Reshma Gopaldas to discuss the upcoming Emmy nominations and what we hope to see. Erbland explains the voting process as we lead up to the nominations on July 8. We talk about the shows that have been largely ignored by the Television Academy, what shows you won't see being recognized, why The Bear has never belonged in comedy and why it might, for the first time, not see much Emmy recognition this round. Widow's Bay is a new entree on the table, and is pushing The Bear off the menu, with Matthew Rhys leading the horror comedy.This year marks a final bow for Outlander, Hacks, The Bear and more. Will Caitríona Balfe finally get the Emmy acknowledgement and accolades for her work over the last 10 years on Outlander? Patina Miller also ends her run on Raising Kanan and Tinubu says her work has been stand out, yet largely ignored. Erbland shouts out Kate O'Flynn for her turn in Widow's Bay. Rhea Seehorn and Karolina Wydra's work in Pluribus is sure to get recognition for their apocalyptic antics. Lisa Kudrow is back with The Comeback, and Euphoria gave its final bow, but did Zendaya's performance break through the challenges of the final season? The Pitt will also dominate the nominations, with Noah Wyle at the forefront. For limited series, Tinubu says Sarah Pidgeon is the sole reason why Love Story captivated everyone.Listen and let us know who you want to see get a nomination.Send us a text, let us know what shows and guests you want us to cover.

Mary & Blake recap and react to Outlander Season 8, Episode 10, "And The World Was All Around Us" — the series finale. For the final episode of Outlander, we are joined by Julie — the godmother of Outlander Cast and the person who introduced Mary to the Outlander books in the first place. In this episode, we discuss the Battle of Kings Mountain, Jamie's fate, Claire's blue light, ghost Jamie, the forget-me-nots, the final montage, Diana Gabaldon's cameo, and whether this episode works as a true series finale. Mary gives the finale a 5 out of 5. Blake gives it a 2 as a series finale. Julie brings the book-reader perspective and lands somewhere in the emotional middle. We also chat why "A Knight Of The Seven Kingdoms" from Game Of Thrones is the perfect farewell episode, why the Outlander finale may have repeated goodbyes instead of escalating them, why Fanny and Faith still feel underpaid, whether Claire actually died, why Jamie's ghost works, and why the final montage might be the best part of the whole episode. Plus, we discuss bad corn shucking, Master Raymond as E.T., Adso's return, Diana Gabaldon conspiracy theories, The Good Place, Breaking Bad, The Sopranos, Harry Potter, Jackie and Shadow, and why Blake is apparently Frodo now.

A story about space, about women, about relationships, and about what happens when you finally accept all the parts of yourself that you've discovered along the way.

Mary & Blake discuss listener feedback for Outlander Season 8 Episode 9, "Pharos." In this episode, we break down the fandom response to Lord John Grey's big hour, Jamie and William's rescue mission, Richardson being revealed as a time traveler, Claire letting him go, Amaranthus feeling like filler, and the anxiety everyone is feeling heading into the Outlander series finale. We also discuss why David Berry continues to shine, whether the Lord John/Jamie chess scene delivered the emotional payoff Season 8 needed, why some listeners loved "Pharos" while others felt underwhelmed, and how the show may or may not land the ending after more than a decade of story. Plus, Mary recovers from her pomegranate-fizz-fueled recap energy, listener voicemails travel through time, Jamie's hair gets the attention it deserves, and everyone starts emotionally preparing for the end of Outlander.

The Unnamed Automotive Podcast goes full EV this week, starting with Benjamin's review of the 2026 Honda Accord Hybrid. He says it's not dull, or bland, but NORMCORE, whatever that means. Well, let him explain! It seems to do everything it needs to and can maybe even out-do its crossover cousins across the Honda showroom in a few things, like, say fuel economy. It's an interesting review of a sedan when there's so few to choose from in the first place. Then Sami revisits the 2026 Mitsubishi Outlander Plug-in Hybrid. Following Benjamin's positive impression of the Japanese crossover, Sami took it upon himself to compare it to the 2026 Kia Sportage PHEV, to find out if the Mitsubishi is actually good, or just good in a vacuum. Lots of surprises here! Then the show ends on a kind note from a listener. Thanks for listening!

Hi y'all - As is tradition, we rolled a d20 to determine completely arbitrary "winners" in our made-up categories to celebrate the finale of season 8 of Outlander! Thanks to The Oasis, and special thanks to all the fans who travelled so far with be with us on the day! It was a blast. Lots of love, Allison, Julie, and Amelia...and maybe a special guest?

If there was ever a time for a brand new iteration of Doctor Who made by passionate and talented fans, this is it, and Outlander seems ready to fill that void adroitly. I talk to Mark Bray about the film, but the nature of fan films and film making in general..

On this week's episode of Droughtlander Diaries Podcast, we are diving into one of our favorite Rapidfire questions!When we interview cast members, we always ask: If you had to give a five-minute TED Talk on any subject, what would it be about? Sarah's answer is always Taylor Swift, while Jess's is the Enneagram. Other than Outlander, these are the topics we're most passionate about and could easily turn into full TED Talks.So this week, we're bringing Sarah's TED Talk to life as we explore the surprising ways Taylor Swift's lyrics seem to mirror some of our favorite Outlander storylines and characters. Joining us for the conversation is our friend Shani, a fellow Outlander fan, Taylor Swift enthusiast and content creator, who brings some fantastic insights and perspectives to the discussion.Now, we know not all of our listeners are Swifties and that's ok! This is all meant to be a fun summer episode to help pass the time during the Drought before Season 2 of Blood of My Blood arrives. Whether you're a lifelong Taylor fan or just here for the Outlander discussion, we hope you'll enjoy this lighthearted look at the connections between two stories we love.We also created a Spotify playlist featuring all of the songs discussed in this episode. If you'd like to listen along or revisit our selections afterward, we'll link it here for you!Follow Shani on InstagramFollow Shani on TikTok

Claire and Jamie are deeply in love, committed, and together for decades. Death. It's the one thing we all have in common, yet it remains one of life's greatest mysteries.

What's this? The 2026 Mitsubishi Outlander Plug-in Electric Vehicle has zoomed onto the Unnamed Automotive Podcast for its review? Benjamin has plenty to talk about with this seriously refreshed compact crossover. Loaded with more range, a new interior and that same controversial third row, does this one of a kind PHEV make sense for today's buyers? And what is going on at Mitsubishi these days anyways? Then Sami talks quickly about the 2026 Genesis Electrified GV70, before quickly going on a tangent about weird car features that haven't been perfected and what that means for a mature market like the automotive industry. Thanks for listening everyone!

In a departure from the typical "Recommends" format, Ben Lindbergh brings on 'Vulture' TV critic and 'TV Is Good' cohost Kathryn VanArendonk for a wide-ranging discussion centered on a sci-fi/fantasy pairing of 'Outlander' (which just concluded an eight-season Starz run), 'For All Mankind' (which just wrapped its fifth season of six on Apple TV), and their respective spinoffs (especially 'Star City,' which just premiered). They start by assessing how much the shows have in common, what sets them apart, and how they reflect TV trends, before diving deeper into each franchise, first in a high-level way and then (with warnings) by reacting to the latest seasons.

Today on the podcast we wanted to take a step back and reflect on our own Outlander journeys, how this story found us, what it's meant to us over the years and the ways it's completely changed our lives. We also wanted to hear from you, the Droughties, because one thing we've learned is that Outlander has never just been a TV show or a book series. For so many of us, it became a comfort show, a safe place, a community, lifelong friendships, and even a turning point in our lives.And now, as we all continue navigating the emotions of this chapter coming to a close, there's a real sense of grief that comes with it. So today's episode is all about reflecting, reminiscing, celebrating the memories and honoring what this fandom and this story has meant to all of us! Leave us a message on the Droughtlander Hotline

Hi y'all, We fucking did it. We watched this whole show. Allison, Julie, and Amelia convened to discuss the series finale of Outlander, "And the World Was All Around Us." So many good things to discuss, and one...weird thing that we don't feel like we understood? Maybe Claire can blue light our asses and we can do the whole thing over again?!? THIS TIME WITH LESS MAN IN BEAR SUIT. Lots of love - Allison, Amelia, and Julie Photo courtesy of Starz

Mary & Blake discuss listener feedback for Outlander Season 8 Episode 8, "In The Forest." In this episode, we go through your reactions to one of the strongest episodes of the final season — including why so many listeners felt like Ron Moore helped get the show back on track, why Jamie and William's hug absolutely broke everyone, and why Fanny hearing the buzzing has people very, very nervous. We also discuss the lingering fallout from Episode 8.07, whether Fergus's death worked better than the book version, Marsali leaving the Ridge, Frank's "Deadeye" reveal, Lord John walking into yet another trap, and why the final two episodes still have a LOT to pay off. Plus, Angie gives us the quote of the season, Mary gets emotionally wounded by Apple Podcast reviews, Blake compares Outlander's spin-off energy to the DCEU, and we somehow end with tuna melts, Mr. Feeney, Chantilly cake, and "I'm not a Hulk, I'm a person."  

Mary & Blake recap and review Outlander Season 8 Episode 8, "In The Forest." In this episode, we discuss why this hour felt like a massive breath of fresh air, how Ronald D. Moore's return to the writer's chair changed the emotional temperature of the show, and why Jamie and William's forest scene finally gave us the father/son material we've been waiting for. We also get into Roger somehow becoming one of Blake's favorite parts of the episode — yes, really — Fanny possibly hearing the stones, the very convenient Frank "Deadeye" reveal, Claire's lack of screen time, Marsali's next step after Fergus, and why the Lord John cliffhanger feels a little too late in the season. Plus, Mary has serious issues with the condition of Frank's book, Blake is fully wearing Ron Moore footie pajamas, and Five Questions That Got Nothing To Do With Outlander somehow leads us to Jars of Clay, leftover pizza, mac and cheese, and the Universal Epic Universe How To Train Your Dragon soundtrack.

Hi Y'all - Allison and Julie got together to discuss Outlander season 8 episode 9, "Pharos." OK so I guess we need some set up for the finale...or whatever? Good acting, weird choices about the plots we're focusing on in this episode. Content warning regarding suicide 19:29 - 20:00, and lots of book spoilers 33:20 - 35:53. It's very difficult to end a long-running show well. Here's to hoping. Lots of love, Allison and Julie Photo Courtesy of Starz

In this solo Outlander Cast history lesson, Blake breaks down the Battle of Kings Mountain and explains how the American Revolution moved from grand strategy into neighbor-against-neighbor violence. This is not a dusty names-and-dates lecture. The focus is pressure, loyalty, fear, land, protection, and the cause-and-effect chain that turned Kings Mountain into one of the most important moments of the Southern Campaign. Blake walks through Britain's problem in the North, the gamble of the Southern Strategy, the fall of Charleston, Cornwallis' push inland, Patrick Ferguson's fatal threat to the Overmountain Men, Benjamin Cleveland's local power, and the brutal reality of a battle fought mostly by Americans against Americans. For Outlander, that is the whole point. Kings Mountain puts Jamie Fraser inside the American Revolution at its most personal. The war is no longer an idea happening somewhere else. It is land, family, neighbors, old grudges, militia summons, and history tightening around Fraser's Ridge. We also get into the big Outlander question: was there really a James Fraser at Kings Mountain? The answer is messy, which makes it exactly right for Jamie. A partial record can still haunt a man when the name is close enough, the battle is real enough, and the future feels like it may already have him marked.

In this episode of Outlander Cast, Mary and Blake dive into the massive listener response to Outlander 8.07, "Evidence of Things Not Seen" — and yes, this may be the most feedback we have ever received for a single episode. Fans wrote in, called in, and brought a whole lot of passion about Fergus, Faith, Lord John, William, and the increasingly chaotic state of the final season. Across the board, one thing is clear: the Faith reveal hit a nerve. Mary and Blake react to your thoughts on whether the storyline cheapens Claire and Jamie's original loss, whether Fergus' death was earned or just another shock move, and whether the show is starting to treat its own emotional history too loosely. They also discuss the praise for Lauren Lyle's performance, the divide over Toni Graphia's script, and the growing fear that the show is piling on twists without enough time to let them breathe. Also in this listener feedback episode: why so many fans felt Fergus' death was overshadowed why Lord John continues to be one of the few universally loved parts of the episode whether the show can still salvage the Faith storyline if William is ever going to recover emotionally and why some listeners think Outlander is getting dangerously close to Game of Thrones final-season territory You can support the show and get all our bonus content at JoinTheNerdClan.com.

In this episode of Outlander Cast, Mary and Blake break down Outlander 8.07, "Evidence of Things Not Seen." And yes — this one gets heated. On the one hand, there is a lot here that really works: Jamie and Claire living under the shadow of Frank's book, Lord John once again proving he is the only adult in the room, the emotional devastation of Fergus' death, and some genuinely strong scene work from Toni Graphia. On the other hand… the Faith reveal. Mary and Blake dig into why this episode feels so split against itself, why the Faith/Master Raymond/Jane/Fanny twist swallows everything else around it, and why Blake thinks this is not really a Toni Graphia failure at all — but a larger Matt Roberts showrunner problem. They also discuss: why Fergus' death lands so hard why Lord John remains the MVP why William is still a mess why the show's emotional contract may now be in danger and whether Outlander can still salvage this storyline by choosing tragedy over restoration And yes, there is also talk of Italian grinders, banana peppers, zombie Faith, and whether this show has officially entered Planet Zippy.

Hi y'all, Allison and Julie happily discuss Outlander season 8 episode 8 "In The Forest," because it was better than whatever happened last week. A couple of notes: 1) Jamie definitely WOULD have asked Claire about the book's dedication, right? 2) Can Brianna just go ahead and invent a time machine so we can fast forward through whatever is happening right now? And finally, 3) Why is Charles Vandervaart sneakily becoming our favorite? Is it because he was a whiny-bitch baby-man who chose to LEARN FROM IT?
