Reposted from Wax Episodic, which you can find at: https://podcastica.com/podcast/wax-episodic — Answers galore in this thrilling season finale that sets us up for exciting things to come. What more could we ask for, right? PS Am I a monster for laughing at all the CEO's plans for experimenting on people in the vaults….? Ah well, if so then I'm a monster who wants to thank all you guys for listening along with us this season, and thanks to everyone who wrote or called in. We'll see you soon for season 2! Next up on Fallout: S2E1, premiering Dec 17! Fallout season 2 trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ECI3eCAxRGw Other Wax Episodic shows: While you're waiting for season 2, consider checking out these other shows we've been covering on Wax Episodic: Pluribus (Apple TV): Everyone is transformed into a pleasant hive mind — except for Carol (Rhea Seehorn), the most miserable woman on the planet, who must save the world from happiness. It's sounds weird, and it is… in the best way. Showrun by the great Vince Gilligan, of Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul. Podcast hosted by Jason and Karen! IT: Welcome to Derry (HBO): A fun, scary, and surprisingly great prequel to the 2016 and 2019 IT movies, Pennywise stalks the children of 1962 Derry. A mix of heart, mystery, charm, and some shockingly disturbing Nightmare on Elme Street-esque horror. Alien: Earth (FX): From the brilliant Noah Hawley (Fargo, Legion), this one really scratches that sci-fi itch. A greedy corporate tech overlord transfers the consciousness of a group of terminally ill children into highly performant synth bodies. And the Xenomorph is in it, too. Also, Tim Olyphant!

durée : 00:03:58 - Le Regard culturel - par : Lucile Commeaux - La nouvelle série de Vince Gilligan, diffusée depuis quelques jours sur Apple TV, rend littérale la fameuse devise américaine de "à partir de tous, un seul", en campant une anti-héroïne grognon dans une humanité refondée d'un coup sur une harmonie radicale.
Έχοντας δει τα τρία πρώτα επεισόδια του Pluribus - spoilers για αυτά! - το POP για τις Δύσκολες Ώρες βουτάει βαθιά στο worldbuilding του νέου κόσμου που έφτιαξε ο Vince Gilligan του Breaking Bad, αλλά και στις πρώτες εντυπώσεις μίας νέας σειράς που δεν θα προσφέρει εύκολες απαντήσεις. Ποια στοιχεία του Breaking Bad και του Better Call Saul εντοπίζουμε στο Pluribus πέρα από τη μαγική Rhea Seehorn; Πώς καταφέρνει ο Vince Gilligan να κρατάει την προσοχή μέσα από τις εικόνες του; Ποιο είναι το φιλοσοφικό κέντρο της σειράς και τι φινάλε μπορούμε να φανταστούμε για τις τέσσερις σεζόν που έχει υπολογίσει ο δημιουργός; Τι θα διαλέγαμε να κάνουμε στη θέση της Carol, αν μπορούσαμε καν να επιλέξουμε; Γιατί πιστεύουμε πως η Carol αντιλαμβάνεται τις εξελίξεις από μία θέση προνομίου και γιατί δεν μοιράζονται όλοι την προοπτική της; Ποια είναι η ηθική του Hive Mind και μήπως τελικά είναι ούτως ή άλλως αναπόφευκτο και στην πραγματική μας ζωή; Αυτά και πολλά (πολλά!) ακόμη στο POP για τις Δύσκολες Ώρες της εβδομάδας!

Time for an experiment! And a love overdose while we're at it. Turns out Carol's a big fan of the scientific method, or at least some semblance of it — we'll put a pin on that for now.Ebube and Cris commend Carol for thinking outside the box as she tries to understand what the Hive can and can't do for her, and they discuss just how likely — or not — she truly is to save the world from happiness.They start by sharing general thoughts on the episode, before honing in on a certain starving gentleman from Paraguay. Then they explore the implications of Carol asking deeper questions as she realizes she can seek truth in more ways than one, while confronting what love means to her.Check out Cris on Pete Peppers' livestream for episode 3!You can support us here.Subscribe to our Newsletter.Also available on YouTube.Host: Ebube Ubochi Guests: CrisProduction by: Ebube Ubochi
Puntata a cura di Jacopo Bulgarini d'Elci e Livio Pacella.In attesa di occuparci della fantastica Pluribus, nuovo parto della fervida fantasia di Vince Gilligan, rispolveriamo il suo grande successo che è anche un classico contemporaneo: Breaking Bad. Una delle serie più importanti del nostro tempo, andata in onda tra il 2008 e il 2013.Ne discutiamo come di una parodia (ferocissima e tragica) della società borghese e mercantile, attraverso la messa in crisi dei suoi pilastri fondamentali: la famiglia, il lavoro, il modello capitalistico. Temi che in parte ritroviamo, appunto, nella nuova Pluribus. -- Questo episodio è stato pubblicato originariamente il 23 luglio 2021 -- “1 classico in 2” è uno dei format del podcast di Mondoserie: conversazioni a due voci su serie che hanno segnato l'immaginario.Leggi il nostro approfondimento su Breaking Bad: https://www.mondoserie.it/breaking-bad-donald-trump-narco-stato/ Leggi il nostro articolo su Better Call Saul: https://www.mondoserie.it/better-call-saul/ Parte del progetto: https://www.mondoserie.it/ Iscriviti al podcast sulla tua piattaforma preferita o su: https://www.spreaker.com/show/mondoserie-podcast Collegati a MONDOSERIE sui social:https://www.facebook.com/mondoserie https://www.instagram.com/mondoserie.it/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwXpMjWOcPbFwdit0QJNnXQ https://www.linkedin.com/in/mondoserie/ MUSICA: Devious Little Smile di Godmode, Licenza della Raccolta audio di YouTube.
Rich and the guys debate if we'll see Joe Burrow's return to the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 12 after missing much of the season with a turf toe injury, and in ‘Higher Register' share their less-than-confident takes on the Kansas City Chiefs, Dallas Cowboys, and Minnesota Vikings QB JJ McCarthy. ‘Breaking Bad' creator Vince Gilligan joins Rich in-studio where he reveals the origin story behind his new ‘Pluribus' sci-fi series on Apple TV and if we could see some ‘Breaking Bad' or ‘Better Call Saul' character cameos in the Albuquerque-based show, and imagines how his unforgettable BB/BCS characters' lives would have unfolded after those series' timelines ended on TV.

Vince Gilligan's new show, “Pluribus,” opens with an unconventional apocalypse. A benevolent alien hive mind descends on Earth, commandeering the bodies of all but a handful of people who appear to be immune, including a curmudgeonly writer named Carol Sturka. Though the world that the “joined” are building seems ideal—no more crime, efficient resource distribution, an end to discrimination—it doesn't leave much room for Carol's messy humanity. Is it worth it? On this episode of Critics at Large, Vinson Cunningham, Naomi Fry, and Alexandra Schwartz discuss “Pluribus” and other perfect societies imagined and enacted by artists and thinkers, from Thomas More's 1516 satire, “Utopia,” to the Shaker movement and beyond. They reflect on why these experiments have rarely held up to scrutiny or benefitted more than a select few, and why we keep coming back to them anyway. “I'm not the most optimistic person,” Fry says. “But if you're stuck in pessimistic, dystopic thinking, are you foreclosing on greater promise or greater potential of imagination?” Read, watch, and listen with the critics:“Pluribus” (2025–)“Breaking Bad” (2008-13)“Better Call Saul” (2015-22)“The X-Files” (1993-2002)“The Giver,” by Lois Lowry“Utopia,” by Thomas More“Les Guérillères,” by Monique Wittig “Close Encounters of the Third Kind” (1977)“The Testament of Ann Lee” (2025)“The Hunger Games,” by Suzanne Collins“Utopia for Realists,” by Rutger Bregman“Ragtime” (1996)New episodes drop every Thursday.

We just tuned into the first three episodes of Pluribus on Apple TV, and we're blown away! The show feels trippy, loopy, and totally absorbing, exactly what you'd expect from the creator of Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul. Its atmosphere pulls you in, the story layers psychological sci-fi with sharp character work, and the visuals are top-notch. Rhea Seehorn absolutely commands the screen as Carol, giving a nuanced performance right in the middle of a bizarre, hive-mind world where individuality is on the line. The direction builds relentless tension, and each episode leaves you wanting more.As critics and fans point out, Pluribus is a rare, original television event. Its themes of individuality, AI, and collective consciousness are strikingly relevant, and it's already earning perfect ratings.Are you loving the weird twists and unsettling world so far?

With Apple TV's 'Pluribus' now in full swing, Ebube and Cris start by slowly unraveling the layers of Carol's inadvertent and self-imposed misery, before going on a semi-philosophical search for the meaning of life.They question Carol's will to live and whether she can actually be happy and count the ways she's blocking her peace, as well as discuss the role of Helen's memory in Carol's rage.They also talk about what Carol should have learned by now, and learn themselves that grenades might be dangerous things to wish for...Check out the Pluribus panel at PaleyFest!You can support us here.Subscribe to our Newsletter.Also available on YouTube.Host: Ebube Ubochi Guests: CrisProduction by: Ebube Ubochi

Original Release Date: Monday 17 November 2025 Description: Big changes are coming, with much more content each week. This week, Dean and Phil hint more at what these changes might bring, while whetting the appetite thru discussions of art, culture, television, movies and acting. The festivities begin with Dean revealing which of the cities he has lived in most inspired his painting. The return of Vince Gilligan to the small screen gets discussed, the hilarious new sitcom “Stumble” gets reviewed, and the cancellation of Rian Johnson's “Poker Face” AND his plans to revive it get analyzed. In “Celebrity Deaths”, the maverick independent filmmaker Henry Jaglom gets remembered and his ongoing legacy and influence are pondered. Then a whole raft of new Netflix films get mentioned before Dean doffs his cap at Guillermo del Toro's Netflix version of Frankenstein, and Phil wags his finger at the preposterous The Woman in Cabin 10. Finally, The Fantastic Four: First Steps gets revisited before the state of acting in the 1970s gets hailed as, perhaps, the all-time peak of screen acting.

This week, DtW is enjoying the one from many in Pluribus! Dan and Raul are excited to get into the new AppleTV series from Vince Gilligan, mastermind behind Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul. This show that sees Rhea Seehorn as Carol, one of the last independent people in the world after a signal from space acts as a virus that turns all of humanity into one being with an interconnected mind. This hive mind is peaceful, friendly and helpful in making Carol's existence as comfortable as possible, at least until they can figure out how to remove her individuality. She may protest, but the collective creature is so sure she'll love it that it sounds like maybe she will not have a choice. What's this show about and what makes these two first episodes so great? I bet our two hosts can figure it out if they just put their minds togeth... wait a sec.

A.Ron and guest theorist-in-chief Pete Peppers dive into Pluribus Episode Three, “Grenade”, breaking down the rules of the hive mind and what Vince Gilligan might have planned for the future of the show. They unpack Carol's chaotic cocktail, her blasé reaction to literal luxury at the edge of the world, and what the show might be hinting about the un-assimilated stragglers. Plenty of theories, plenty of laughs, and zero consensus on whether the hive mind is a good deal or a cosmic red flag.

In the (short) non-spoiler zone the guys offer their general thoughts on the series and on Gilligan's talent. Then in the spoiler zone, a look at everything which has made the first three episodes of Pluribus so riveting, thought-provoking and funny.

We unravel the delicious (shared) universe Vince Gilligan has created with Apple TV's PLUR1BUS! Rhea Seehorn kills it, yet again, as one of Gilligan's classic antagonizing protagonists, Carol Sturka. The show's collective is Invasion Of The Body Snatchers meets The Walking Dead meets Star Trek's The Borg, only resistance actually hurts them, nobody was viciously torn apart, and their consciousness isn't replaced but shared by the world's population.

On this week's show, Steve, Dana, and Julia merge their consciousnesses—so to speak—to reflect on Pluribus, the latest television saga from Breaking Bad creator Vince Gilligan. In this unlikely body snatchers/sci-fi mashup, Rhea Seehorn plays a woman intent on saving the world from… eternal happiness? What exactly it needs saving from—or if it needs saving at all—is fodder for much discourse. Next, they turn to the ruminative and funny family drama Sentimental Value, directed by Norwegian auteur Joachim Trier and starring Stellan Skarsgård and Renate Reinsve. Finally, they take a look at a recent piece in The Ankler by Richard Rushfield crunching the numbers to reveal that, since #MeToo, troublingly few major films have been directed by women. In an exclusive Slate Plus bonus episode, it's time to party! Or rather, it's time for a reflective discussion about parties as pieces of personal culture. Endorsements Dana: Reading up on the historical figure Jean Ross, the writer and activist who inspired both the song “These Foolish Things (Remind Me of You)” and the character Sally Bowles of Goodbye to Berlin/Cabaret notoriety. Julia: Kate McKinnon talking with Amy Poehler on Good Hang and Jennifer Lawrence talking with Matt Rogers and Bowen Yang on Las Culturistas— celebrities interviewing celebrities isn't all bad! Steve: By Night in Chile by Roberto Bolaño and the Dutch indie rock band Bettie Serveert— especially this playlist. … Email us your thoughts at culturefest@slate.com.

What is the iPhone Pocket? Apple is nearing a $1 billion a year deal to use Google AI with Siri. Could the OLED MacBook Pro redesign be limited to just the M6 Pro and Max models? And is Apple TV's new show, Pluribus, good? It's good enough to have brought Apple TV down for a period of time during its initial release. Introducing iPhone Pocket: a beautiful way to wear and carry iPhone. Apple nears $1 billion-a year deal to use Google AI for Siri. Report: OLED MacBook Pro redesign may be exclusive to M6 Pro and M6 Max models. The iPad Pro at 10: a decade of unrealized potential. Apple's losing its podcast legacy — why it matters, and how to save it. Forget Liquid Glass, Apple TV's new logo was shot with actual glass. Did Pluribus trigger the AppleTV+ crash? Vince Gilligan wants you to know that Pluribus was 'made by humans'. Apple original films acquires J S Mayank & David Carlyle's manuscript 'Fallen Astronaut'. Future of Apple Fitness+ 'under review'. B&H lists HomePod Mini as discontinued amid refresh rumors. Picks of the Week Andy's Pick: Club TWiT & Central Heating!

Vince Gilligan returns to the prestige airwaves with Pluribus, an apocalyptic Rhea Seehorn vehicle that's getting uniformly great reviews -- and Jeff Drake returns to the podcast to talk about why WE aren't all on the same page with its world-building, self-consciously beautiful shot compositions, and more (though we all DO agree that Seehorn is the President of Acting). We went Around The Dial with Stumble, The Zen Diaries of Garry Shandling, and Who Hired The Hitman? before Jeff went nuts with a Canon pitch from The Dick Van Dyke Show. All's Fair won, Kim Kardashian's bar-exam support team lost, and we reeled in the years with a historical-TV Game Time. Polish off that rosé and join us! GUESTS
