The Hosts take a deep dive on HBO's WestWorld Episode 10, "The Bicameral Mind". The show did a fantastic job of buttoning up certain story lines and giving us some much needed answers. We learn about Ford’s final story and how it relates to the world as a whole. We also learn about the maze and what it means for hosts like Dolores and Bernard. 

There’s Maeve’s crew going full Terminator in the offices and how she is forced to make her own choices. 

There’s all of this and more for the Season Finale.

The Hosts, Doug Norrie and James Davis discuss HBO WestWorld’s episode eight, Trace Decay. Coming down off the intensity of last week’s episode is never easy, but this one had plenty of it’s own nuggets. They talk about how Bernard is dealing with the realization that he’s a host and how that could effect both him and Ford going forward. 

Then there’s Maeve who’s completely online now, but still not totally in control of her world. They theorize on what her final fate is, whether she gets out of the park or not. 

And finally there’s much more to the William is the Man in Black theory.

The Hosts Podcast breaks down HBO’s WestWorld Episode 7, “Trompe L’oeil”. Wow. This is the episode we’ve been waiting for and of course there are major spoilers ahead.

It raises so many implications for the motives of Ford and we discuss his character going forward. 

The Hosts also break down Maeve’s character and how they see here story line dovetailing into the rest of the world.

And of course there’s William and Dolores getting further into the outskirts of the park.

Doug and James discuss HBO's WestWorld episode six, "The Adversary". This was a crazy episode with a number of different storylines starting the crystalize.

They also talk in depth about Ford and what he’s done to work with a family of hosts that exist outside the registered group. 

And finally there’s the very silly scene with Lee peeing on the WestWorld console and somehow being offered a promotion.
