Our threat levels were critical, but they've been neutralized, because we're just that good and you know it. And we're never leaving Slough House. Hey, just like River!Chris is back this week with Bankole and Angel for the rollercoaster finale of 'Slow Horses' Season 5 on Apple TV, and together the squad tries to figure out what this new resolution might mean for the show going forward, while celebrating Diana's takeover finally landing.After Chris gives his debrief on the London Film Festival, they start by marveling at the truth behind Lamb's story from episode 3 (11:34), before quickly addressing both the competence and significance of the dissidents' plan for retribution (16:04). They also call River out for projecting and applaud for Claude for managing to somehow fail upwards into survival, which is as hilarious as it is surprising.Additionally, they dive into a discussion on whether the show wants us to believe River is competent (32:13) and why Claude never stood a chance against Lamb (37:12), as well as how the book handled the events of the episode — and season — a bit differently (47:18), after which they share some fun recommendations and their expectations for the already high-octane sixth season of the show (50:30).You can support us here.Subscribe to our Newsletter.Also available on YouTube.Chris' London Film Festival Highlights!Chris' take on 'The Secret Agent'.Chris full 'Sentimental Value' review.Chris on the new 'Knives Out': 'Wake Up Dead Man'.Host: Bankole ImoukhuedeGuests: Chris and AngelProduction by: Ebube Ubochi

The whole squad is in for the showdown of a lifetime this week, as Thomas Godolkin's plan is finally revealed, so we brought back-up too — Ebube joins the Bankole, Chiagoziem and Oseghale this week to make sense of the finale of 'Gen V' season two.They start by discussing bob-gate, as well as the fandom's mixed feelings about the end of the season and what it could mean for the future of both 'Gen V' and 'The Boys', then they get into the potential plot conveniences while praising the finale's incredible performances (Keeya, please call Oseghale). They also try to decide whether the show used Thomas Godolkin effectively enough, and if there's more to Sage's role than we all initially thought.Plus, Polarity gets his flowers for being the actual adult in the room, and the squad shares their thoughts on the episode's fun cameos, as well as the newly revealed resistance.You can support us here.Subscribe to our Newsletter.Also available on YouTube.Host: Bankole ImoukhuedeGuests: Chiagoziem, Oseghale and EbubeProduction by: Ebube Ubochi

'Gen V' Season 2, Episode 7: Main Character Syndrome
You know that feeling? The bittersweet one?... When your wild theory turns out to be true and you’re stoked, but also your wild theory turned out to be true so now your favorite characters are absolutely cooked? Yeah?… Well so do we.On the penultimate episode of Gen V Season 2, Bankole, Chiagoziem and Oseghale find themselves reckoning with the fact that Marie might be not just the Avatar, but Paul Atreides. They get into the true implications of her seemingly limitless power, the extent to which Cate is — or isn't — redeemable, and how Keeya Kings’s portrayal of Annabeth is becoming an emotional cornerstone for the season. (Keeya, please call Oseghale if you're reading this).They also make some Godolkin University-educated guesses on who’s most likely to die in next week’s season finale. Somehow, they additionally end up trying to figure out the mechanics of what is definitely the most repulsive pocket dimension put to fiction.
