Episode 8 - Children of the Corn

  Things are starting to get deep, y'all. Season 4, Episode 8 of Orange is the New Black is stuffed with relationship issues, foreshadowing, and some seriously fantastic acting.  This week, guest Patrick Schmidt (Netflix Life, FanSided) joins us for a chat. We try to answer the questions: Why is Red so damn helpful all the time? Did Linda actually have a point for once in her life? Also, what in the what is going on with Nicky? (Hint: We're super concerned about Nicky.) Totally Non-Required Reading: Cal and Piper's phone call in this episode reminded me of this article* from the Verge on unfair charging practices within the prison phone system.  There's a fun interactive tool where you can see what each state in the U.S. is charging per second. The disparities are astounding.  Reminder: We want you to be a part of the conversation. Join us for our live tweet every Monday at 9pm EST. This week, on Monday, August 15th we'll be watching S4E9, "Turn Table Turn."
