08.12.2018
TM57 – S4E9 – One Minute More
We marvel over the tightly-written 12 Monkeys penultimate episode, "One Minute More," in which secrets are revealed that reach all the way back to season 1, but we also get plenty of shocking revelations from only the final season, such...
08.06.2018

07.29.2018
TM55 – S4E7 – Daughters
Our 12 Monkeys discussion gets a bit literary as we discuss the wonderful duality of "Daughters" as it draws parallels between Hannah and Emma. Interestingly, although Terry Matalas calls the next series of episodes a "descent into darkness," the revelations...
07.22.2018
TM54 – S4E6 – Die Glocke
It's time for discussion of one of the zaniest episodes of 12 Monkeys ever: "Die Glocke"! Whether you thought Jennifer's singing and gleeful assassination of Hitler were over the top or not, this episode was undeniably fun. And it notably...
07.15.2018
TM53 – S4E5 – After
The question of what comes after victory or loss in 12 Monkeys makes us very philosophical in our discussion of "After" this week. The admirably complex ins and outs of doing a causality loop episode put this one in the...
07.08.2018
TM52 – S4E4 – Legacy
Our discussion enters the section of 12 Monkeys season 4 in which the adventures of Team Splinter begin in "Legacy." A trip to 1852 gives us the Wild West theme we never knew we wanted until now and blends it...

06.24.2018
TM48 – S4E2 – Ouroboros
Our podcast discussion continues for 12 Monkeys with a Terry Matalas penned and helmed episode, “Ouroboros,” in which Jones, Cassie, and Cole revisit the very first splinter from season 1 from a different perspective. Plenty of emotional content and opportunities...

TM44 – 12 Monkeys Season 4 Preview (featuring Terry Matalas)

05.22.2017
TM41 – S3E10 – Witness
It's no surprise that the season 3 finale of 12 Monkeys is titled Witness, but the identity of the Witness certainly was! Just when we thought we had it figured out! The battle seemed all but impossible, and parts of...
05.22.2017
TM40 – S3E9 – Thief
Athan Cole certainly does not seem to be amenable to the future laid out before him, and in the 12 Monkeys episode, Thief, we see his avoidance strategy. Told brilliantly through Cole's and Cassie's reading of his journals, a love...
05.21.2017
TM39 – S3E8 – Masks

05.20.2017
TM37 – S3E6 – Nature

05.20.2017
TM36 – S3E5 – Causality
Night 2 of 12 Monkeys season 3 gets off to a raring start with a trip to the 1980s in this very Ocean's-11-like episode entitled Causality. Secrets abound in this heist to get the Word of the Witness, but with...
05.19.2017
TM35 – Night 1 Debrief with Terry Matalas
We got 12 Monkeys showrunner Terry Matalas on the phone to talk about the brilliance of Night 1 of the season 3 linear binge. He's got plenty to share about the first four episodes of season 3 including exclusive insight...
05.19.2017
TM34 – S3E4 – Brothers
The tough choice is made as the brothers, Cole and Ramse, go head-to-head in the latest 12 Monkeys episode appropriately titled Brothers. Is it hypocritical of Cole to protect one person over billions when he criticized Ramse for doing the...
05.19.2017
TM33 – S3E3 – Enemy
With Olivia caged and Deacon imprisoned, the 12 Monkeys episode title Enemy takes on several meanings. How do you get your supposed enemy to do or say what you want? And who among your friends is really an enemy themselves?...
05.19.2017
TM32 – S3E2 – Guardians
We're going down some dark paths in the second episode of 12 Monkeys' third season entitled Guardians! The team seems very fractured, and the mission has barely even started yet! Fortunately, Jennifer is back in play and appears to at...
05.19.2017
TM31 – S3E1 – Mother
Looks like we're picking up right where we left off in the 12 Monkeys season 3 premiere, Mother. Right away, we're learning a lot about Titan and what everyone has been doing for the past few months: a whole lot...
07.25.2016
TM30 – BONUS – Season 2 Listener Feedback
Time for a 12 Monkeys season 2 debrief with our bonus listener feedback episode! Together with an enlightening interview with eminent writer, Sean Tretta, and a surprise call-in from showrunner Terry Matalas and Jennifer Goines herself, Emily Hampshire, this feedback...
07.20.2016
TM29 – S2E13 – Memory of Tomorrow
Like a classical piece with its cadenza, the 12 Monkeys season 2 finale, Memory of Tomorrow, was the perfect cap to a season full of non-stop thrills. Some of our predictions came to fruition, but the manner in which they...
07.13.2016
TM28 – S2E12 – Blood Washed Away
Utter failure permeates this week's 12 Monkeys episode entitled Blood Washed Away, but at least we got our "Casserole" moment! With all the narrative time leaps, the story took on an epic scale and the deaths were worthy of a...
06.29.2016
TM27 – S2E11 – Resurrection
The fissure that has grown between members of the group splits wide open in the latest 12 Monkeys episode, Resurrection, and death results. Now we can only hope that Cole is successful in his mission so that much of the...

06.15.2016
TM25 – S2E9 – Hyena
The origin story of the Daughters doesn't turn out the way we expected in this week's 12 Monkeys episode, Hyena, nor does the investigation into Titan and the Witness in 2044. With several clues being doled out for time periods...
06.08.2016
TM24 – S2E8 – Lullaby
The most emotional episode of 12 Monkeys ever comes this week in Lullaby, and we're still drying the tears. Terry Matalas and company weren't exaggerating when they called this the best episode of the series to date! We had a...
06.01.2016
TM23 – S2E7 – Meltdown
With a distinct horror vibe, Meltdown takes 12 Monkeys down the Witness' rabbit hole, and not everyone comes out alive! Amazingly, this bottle episode manages to further the story with a wholly unfamiliar style, and yet it fits the mythology...
05.25.2016
TM22 – S2E6 – Immortal
It's the buddy cop episode as 12 Monkeys heads to 1975 in Immortal! Besides the obvious mending of the friendship between Cole and Ramse and the "saving" of another Primary (depending on how you look at it), this episode left...
05.18.2016
TM21 – S2E5 – Bodies of Water
Was the Witness' identity revealed in the latest episode of 12 Monkeys, Bodies of Water? Certainly his method of communication was made clear as the 12 Monkeys fought their internal battles. Meanwhile, both the ladies in the past and the...
05.14.2016
TM20 – Emily Hampshire Interview

05.11.2016
TM19 – S2E4 – Emergence

05.04.2016
TM18 – S2E3 – One Hundred Years
The journey to the 40's begins with a surprising amount of failure in this week's 12 Monkeys episode, One Hundred Years. Cole and Cassie just keep getting there too late! What repercussions will the paradox have for the out-cold time...
04.27.2016
TM17 – S2E2 – Primary
The anchor for the second season of 12 Monkeys is set in this amazing episode, Primary. With history actually being changed and a new mission being put into place, it's clear that the virus is only one part of a...
04.20.2016
TM16 – S2E1 – Year of the Monkey
12 Monkeys season 2 is off to a roaring start with the season premiere appropriately entitled Year of the Monkey. With Amanda in the post-apocalyptic future and Cole and Ramse on the run, there are quite a few role reversals...

TM15 – Pre-Season 2 Interview Extravaganza

TM13 – S1E12 – Mothers, Fathers, Lovers, Friends

03.29.2015
TM12 – S1E11 – Witnessing the Cycle
