Episode Description from the Publisher

Darren and I discuss Euphoria’s episode “Stand Still and See,” plus a few other shows and recent horror releases. We start with weather chatter and quick TV updates, including the latest Margot Has Many Trouble episode (Child Services investigation, custody threats, Nick Offerman and Greg Kinnear moments) and a recommendation for the horror film Obsession (from a YouTube filmmaker who made Milk and Cereal), along with Hokum and upcoming genre releases like Backrooms. We then break down Euphoria: Alamo’s vivid, effective childhood prologue and how it frames his misogyny; Rue’s heavy religious iconography (burning bush/Moses reference) and her church phone call with her mom; the DEA/Laurie/Alamo plot tightening around an ambulance-smuggling “one more run”; Cassie’s funny, triggered audition improvisation and deleting her OnlyFans; Maddy’s strip-club photo set and unease about Alamo; frustration with sidelined Nate and an unconvincing Rue/Jules romance. We speculate about the unusually long finale and want a Bishop backstory segment.
