Decoding Mr. Robot

Hello friend. On this week’s episode we discuss part 1 of Mr. Robot’s season 2 finale. We work through our Esmail-induced plot trauma and wonder how many of the lingering questions will be answered in the second part of the finale. Our discussion touches on Angela’s big meeting, simulation theory, Dom’s human-cyborg relations, and Elliot’s reunion with an old friend (maybe?).

In the second half of the episode we preview our upcoming Pop Culture podcast ‘Binge Mode’ with our picks for favorite ‘things’ of the summer including the documentary Weiner, comic writer Jonathan Hickman, and FX’s Atlanta.

Hello friend. We’re in week 2 of Mr. Robot season 2 and guess who’s back? Drug use! At 3:50 we start digging into the theme of the week: internal fatal errors – which is an apt description for our physical reactions to Elliot huffing cement with Heisenberg. Later we catch up on Angela’s big date (31:08) and sit down for a joint with Romero’s mom and Dominique (39:30). Will we ever learn what happened to the ‘un’ in ‘Fun Society’?! We speculate.

Hello Friend. Mr. Robot picks up where we left off last week – behind a terminal. Elliot is back online, Ray’s dark side emerges, Angela gets back with Ollie, Darlene levels up, and Dom takes a trip (with a pit stop at Steel Valley)! So put on your favorite dress and sort through the maze of this week’s Mr. Robot episode, Logic Bomb.

Hello friend. Three weeks in and we are still sinking in the abyss that is Elliot’s fractured mind, but who cares when we get such sweet reunions with past friends long forgotten! This week our intrepid characters hit rock bottom with Darlene, Angela, and Elliot all scrambling to find a foothold in the new world order fSociety created; even White Rose (s/he’s back baby) and Philip Price seem rattled, are they still working six steps ahead of everyone else on the chess board? Our only friend with solid footing is Ray, who continues to dish out a delicious blend of wisdom and threats as Elliot ponders a confession. Join us as we break it all down before wildly speculating on some of the juiciest fan theories going around the net at the show’s conclusion.
