456 players winnowed down to just a few in these most recent, tension-filled episodes of the Squid-Game-based reality show, and we found it just as riveting (and at times, infuriating) to watch. Join Daphne, Jonathan, and Jason as we talk it through, and then join us later in the week for an episode on the season finale!

Jason, Daphne, and Jonathan had a blast talking through the first five episodes of Squid Game: The Challenge, the new reality show based on Squid Game. We go into detail about all the games and tests, the psychological and strategic dynamics, our favorites and least favorites, comparisons to the Squid Game series and more!

So interesting to have an episode set back in the normal world so early in the show, which seems like a strange choice, but it’s important to the story and David, Jason, and special guest Karen (yay!) are here to tell you why we think so.

Stay tuned to the end if you want to hear a spoilery segment talking about how some of the events in this episode relate to later episodes.

The desperation builds in this first episode of this brilliant series. If you’re on the fence about whether the brutality of this show is too much, we hope to convince you that there’s a lot of gold to be mined with this show, and also that though the brutality is an essential part of it, it’s only one part of what makes Squid Game stand out. Join Jason, David, and Veronica as we talk it through!

Squid Game season one comes to a fittingly gloomy end, with some intriguing teases for possible directions in season two, and Karen is here to talk it through with David and Jason.

Thanks everyone for listening along with us, and we hope you found the show to be as worthwhile as we did. Keep us in your feed, as we plan to be back for Squid Game season two, which we’re hoping will drop sometime later this year.

In the meantime, check out some of our other podcasts at Podcastica.com. We cover other dark, intelligent shows like Yellowjackets, Handmaid’s Tale, The Last of Us, The Walking Dead, and lots more.

In some ways a quieter episode here near the end, but in some ways more tense, emotional, and tragic than ever. As always, lots to talk about, and in particular we had an in-depth back-and-forth about the morality of Sang Woo. Join Jason, David, and Veronica as we talk it through.

It’s the infamous, brutal glass bridge this week. Talk about a f#%ed-up game. And the sleazy “VIPs” have arrived to watch alongside, you know…. us ;) Join David, Daphne, and Jason to talk it through.

Ooh, here’s maybe the best episode of Squid Game and just a standout episode of any TV show ever, in our estimation. Marbles anyone?
