We're back from the holidays better than ever as we start unpacking the back half of the final nine episodes! This week, Chris, Paul, & Jordan dissect the stylistically unsettling "Chasing It" where Tony's bad run of gambling catches up with him, poisoning his relationship with one of his oldest friends, adding tension to his most heated business rivalry, and further damaging his marriage. It's a wild ride with some uncomfortable moments and dark humor. Also: Phil is the big boss of New York, Little Vito gets rebellious, and Melfi calls Tony to account for his missed sessions. Great discussion about what may arguably be the weakest episode of the final nine. All this and so much more, right after we put all our podcast money on the Jets...

Chris, Paul, Jordan & Lily dig into "Remember When", an episode that creates a painful but compelling look at nostalgia and how the past still weighs on the present, even for those who are unable to remember it. Paulie and Tony head south as the FBI digs up Tony's first murder victim, while back home in Jersey, Junior is boss of the mental hospital running a new kind of executive game. Meanwhile in New York, Phil makes a move that will send shockwaves through the underworld after Doc Santoro takes a bite of food off his plate. One by one Tony is assessing his relationships with those closest to him and it's not looking good. It's a wild ride full of great drama, dark humor, and some surprise celebrity cameos. All this and so much more, right after we order salads and wraps after 11:00...

Chris, Paul, & Jordan break down "Stage 5" which sees three major storylines about legacy converge into one packed, uncomfortable, and thrilling hour. The stage is set for a wild ride as pieces are moved into place in New York for Phil Leotardo as he recons with his legacy. Johnny Sac gets some troubling medical news and deals with the fallout, and Chris' movie "Cleaver" premieres, but the best drama isn't happening on screen once Tony delves into the subconscious. It's a wild and surprising ride with some harsh but also introspective scenes and a shockingly wise monologue from Carmine Jr. of all things! We break it all down here, and so much more right after we tell him to put it in the trunk...
