So would you take the $100k or rat Greg out? That’s just one of the many questions we ponder this week as Jason, Jenny, and Randy are joined by Randy’s wife Becca to talk it out.

In this episode about how we sometimes cling to the well-worn paths in life, at least one part of the story goes way the f#%k off into uncharted territory, and we’re glad to be joined by our friend Jenny Ryan to help try and make sense of it all.

Well, okay then. I mean you know this is all your fault for complaining nothing was happening on this show, right? Just kidding, but what an episode — all about fluidity of identity, losing inhibitions, and the never-ending carousel of lust and suffering — and we were pretty fascinated with all of it. The wheels have come off the bus.

The simmer of this show is edging towards a boil, as Rick finally reveals his true purpose in Thailand, Timothy learns his impending terrible fate, Belinda discovers the truth about Greg, and Jaclyn, Laurie, and Kate have a messed-up day.

The White Lotus may be a slow burn, but we always find it a fascinatingly, engagingly watchable one. This week we particularly enjoyed Lochlan’s “posture correction” session that turned out to be a disconcertingly accurate look into his soul (lol), Rick’s outing to get some weed, and yeah even Laurie, Jaclyn, and Kate talking politics.

Welcome everyone. Please sit back, relax, and enjoy an eclectic blend of soothing, relaxing backbiting, armed robbery, and confusing sexual dynamics among siblings in that special way that only The White Lotus can deliver. Lol.

Ah so good to be back in the land of beautiful environments and cringy people :) As promised, we’re seeing shades of spirituality, Eastern religion, and death, with the usual dash of entitlement and strained interpersonal dynamics that we love so much. Join Randy, Jenny, and Jason to talk it through.

Things go all Tarantino in the wildly surprising season two finale! And of course, we get into some deep discussions about sexuality, infidelity, and desire, ‘cuz we aim to please :P
And that’s it for our coverage of The White Lotus for awhile, until we get S3. Thanks for listening everybody. It was seriously fun and endlessly fascinating to talk about this type of show, with this group of hosts, and you guys writing and calling in.
As I said, keep us in your feeds if you want to hear us talk The White Lotus: Thailand, and maybe we’ll drop an episode or two in the meantime.
Ciao for now :)
PS Need something to tide you over? We’re part of a network and we cover a bunch of other shows. If you haven’t checked any of them out, you can find them at podcastica.com/podcasts. A few that White Lotus fans might particularly like: Yellowjackets wtf? (on the amazingly great thriller/black comedy/drama starring Christina Ricci, Juliette Lewis, and Melanie Lynksey on Showtime), Murder Magnets: A Poker Face Podcast (on the supremely fun Rian Johnson-produced crime comedy-drama starring Natasha Lyonne), and Dead to Us (on the excellent Christina Applegate / Linda Cardellini black comedy-drama Dead to Me on Netflix).

Lots of possible game playing (and definite game playing) going on at the White Lotus this week, with lies, cheating, everyone messing with each other, and possible scams afoot! It’s all rather delicious.

We spent most of this episode naming off condom brands. Enjoy!
Note that we forgot to mention on the podcast: Next week’s ep will be out a few days later, as Jason and Randy are in Boston for a meetup with the Zedheads (my super-fun Patreon group).
PS There IS a spoilery segment at the end of this ep where we talk about implications for the rest of the season.

This ep spurred a lot of talk about gender, what comes naturally to us vs. what is a social construct, the difference between flirting and harassment, addiction, and a lot more. We know, it’s supposed to be a fun sex comedy :) We definitely had fun talking about it, and we would seriously love to know your thoughts too.

This show feels like a study in psychology and human sexual behavior, as we try to figure out what everyone wants and what their true intentions are, and whether they even understand themselves. Are you guys finding it as fascinating as we are?

This episode had cluelessly hypocritical moralizing, people disappointing and/or trying to stick it to each other, cringiness, sublime moments, laughs, and sex. So, you know, White Lotus :)

Most everyone at The White Lotus has sex on their minds this week, and we sexplicate it all.
On a much more somber note, as we’re sure you’ve seen, Maui is in the middle of a terrible tragedy, with wildfires stoked by winds from hurricane Dora having taken many lives, and destroyed thousands of homes and businesses. The Red Cross is doing a lot of work to help, like providing shelter, food, and resources for evacuees and first responders, helping people locate missing loved ones, supporting shelters for animals and caring for injured animals in partnership with the Maui Humane Society, and more. You can donate to help this effort by going to redcross.org/donate/hawaiiwildfires.html.
At the end of this episode, Jenny and Jason talk a bit about their experience in Maui.
