Groundless (A Justified Podcast)

Wrapping up our discussion of The OC while trying to understand the Julie/Caleb relationship this week.

Join Chris and Randy for Part 3 of our discussion on Season 1 of The OC.  In this episode your hosts:  discuss Seth, Summer, Seth + Summer, Julie + Caleb, and Sandy + Jimmy and their restaurant love child; finally acknowledge that Randy lives outside the mainstream of society; speculate fearfully about the possibility of "Temu fireworks"; and wonder whether Marissa learned her video game skills from her mom.  Oh, and Randy expresses a objectively wrong and insane opinion on hot dogs - hate mail to [email protected], RE: The Randy Problem.

Back in about a month to start Season 2 - where you may have forgotten, Seth and Zack try and fail twice to have a successful comic book.  Just more proof that success is overwhelmingly based on who you know and not what you are good at.

Part 2/3

Join Chris and Randy for more of The O.C., Season 1.  In this episode of Groundless, your hosts:  compare Rachel, the attorney, to a Simpsons character, discuss the lack of diversity throughout The O.C., agree that everyone who doesn't do an "Irish Goodbye" is a narcissist, expose Chris's long term crush on Monica Lewinsky, and get some details wrong about the Baywatch movie.

"Every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end..."

It's time for the final episode of Groundless Justified!  Join your Groundless hosts this week for a look at the overall series of Justified, along with some of typical diversions you've come to expect from Chris and Randy.  In this episode your hosts:  explore our favorite and least favorite moments, storylines, episodes, and characters - including some surprising reveals; discover that a spinoff featuring Raylan in space is basically just Serenity; discuss the latest news about a new season of our favorite TV show; take a moment to really appreciate Neal McDonough's portrayal of Robert Quarles; compare Ava's jail arc to The Wire and the "gas leak" season of Community.

Oh, and we also announce our "next thing" (don't call it that) along with a tentative schedule for when you can put more Groundless into your earholes!

Back with a new direction soonish!  Until then - don't forget to subscribe, rate, and review.  E-mail us with your questions, comments, suggestions, and corrections - [email protected].  Check out our socials @groundlesspod and @groundlesspodcast.  Thanks for listening!

Is it dusty in here or is it just me?

Join Groundless for a look at Season 6, Episode 13 of Justified, "The Promise." This also happens to be the series finale of Justified! This week, Chris and Randy: notice some parallels between Ava Crowder and Henry Hill, try to figure out why Raylan really visited Boyd, speculate about whether Raylan obtained his original Stetson in the same way he obtains Boon's hat, wonder if it's just a coincidence that Markham discussed blinding someone and eventually gets shot in the eye, and finally, after 78 episodes, bid farewell to our favorite TV show. :(

Stay frosty! Time for the penultimate episode of Justified!

Join Groundless this week for a look at Season 6, Episode 12 of Justified, "Collateral." In this week's episode, Chris and Randy: appreciate the Fast/Furious movies thanks to the #1 movie the week this episode aired; observe the gradual descent of David Vasquez into insanity; debate whether Ava was right to set out on foot or whether she should have stayed at Groobs's cabin to "Home-Alone" it with Zachariah; discuss the "Is Wynn Duffy gay" discourse in relation to the Billie Jean King shout-out in this episode; and, of course, celebrate the character retirements for Wynn Duffy and Constable Bob, perhaps the two best side characters in the series.

Back in 2 weeks with the finale. Following that, we will have a special epsiode with our overall thoughts on the series and an announcement about what (and when) to expect next from Groundless. In the meantime, check out our socials @groundlesspod and @groundlesspodcast, e-mail us [email protected] with your thoughts, and drop us 5 and a sub.

Hey - it's only one day late! Hit the "subscribe" button and never be angry-ish again!

Join Groundless this week for a look at Season 6, Episode 11, "Fugitive Number One," where the twist is that it starts out as Ava Crowder, then becomes Boyd Crowder, then maybe kinda but not really but sorta in Vasquez's mind becomes Raylan? In this week's episode your hosts: Discuss, at last, whether Katherine Hale has a literal murder boner; Play "see what you did there" with regard to Boon and Loretta and Raylan; Compare poor Carl to Charlie Brown, with good reason; Finally acknowledge the incomparable Mel Fair in our guest star segment; and, of course, pay a final tribute to Mike "Don't Call Me Mikey" Cosmatopolis and the always-delightful (evenasarevengemetaphortalkaboutdiggingtwogravesamiright) Katherine Hale in our RIP segment.

Just one moment while we shoot our fiance and steal 10 million dollars...

Join Groundless this week for a look at Season 6, Episode 10 of Justified, "Trust." In this episode, your hosts: discuss the very interesting (and relevant) history of our guest star this week, K Callan; identify the various points in this episode that force Ava into her end of episode decisions; explore the Black Mafia Family (again, relevant!) in this week's lesser known organized crime segment; learn a couple of new racial slurs for white people in our word of the week; and, of course, bid farewell to everyone's favorite banker, Ellstin Limehouse, in our character retirement segment - congrats on leaving Harlan alive!

Back in 2 weeks (which will be 2024!) with the next episode where everyone is a fugitive from justice.

Hey, the word Burned has multiple meanings!

Join Groundless this week for a look at Season 6, Episode 9 of Justified, "Burned." In this episode, your hosts: notice a striking similarity between a line in this episode and the South Park movie; confuse Summer Glau's ethnicity, and I'm apparently not the only one (google it); learn about Los Zetas, who you might as well call ISIS West, in this edition of the lesser-known organized crime report; realize that 90% of Ava's problem this season are because Raylan, Vasquez, and Rachel are all impatient beyond reason; and treat the idea that Boon doesn't know who John Wayne is and that Rachel doesn't know what the Icky Shuffle is with the same amount of contempt.

Back in 2 weeks with Episode 10, no breaks this year, we are pushing right through so Happy Holidays - our gift to you is more Groundless. Check our socials @groundlesspod, @groundlesspodcast; e-mail us [email protected]; and don't forget to give us 5 and a sub.

The final pieces are moving into place as we get closer to finding out who will leave Harlan alive.

Join Groundless this week for a look at Season 6, Episode 8 of Justified, "Dark as a Dungeon" (or as we call it, the Arlo's creepy cabin episode). In this episode, Chris and Randy: attempt to juice our Googles by mentioning the Queen of All Media, Ms. Taylor Swift; discuss movies about robots with souls and reminisce about 80s black-and-brownface; take a moment to appreciate the conversations between Boyd and Raylan while we still can; address the weird Arlo segments bookending this episode; understand, without excusing, why Boyd is blinded by opportunity after seeing that giant pile of money; and bid adieu to everyone's favorite top - Ty Walker - in our In Memoriam segment.

Only 5 episodes remain! Back in 2 weeks with "Burned." Until then, check out our socials @groundlesspod and @groundlesspodcast, e-mail us with your questions, comments, concerns, corrections, and love troubles [email protected].
