Mr. Robot Post Show Recaps - Podcast Recaps of the USA Series

Rami Malek in the first episode of Mr. Robot

Hello, friend! Welcome to the Mr. Robot podcast on Post Show Recaps. Josh Wigler (@roundhoward) and Antonio Mazzaro (@acmazzaro) are re-watching and discussing a new episode of Mr. Robot season one every week, leading up to the season two premiere on July 13. The podcast contains two separate spoiler-free and spoiler-filled sections. Please do not post spoilers in the comments section.

This week, Josh and Antonio discuss the first episode of the series, which introduces viewers to Elliot Alderson (Rami Malek), an incredibly talented computer hacker and cybersecurity expert who also happens to suffer from extreme social anxiety, depression, and other disorders. The viewer sees the world through Elliot’s eyes, and while it’s always an interesting vantage point, it’s not always a comfortable one.

Send your questions in for the podcast through our feedback form. Next week’s podcast focuses on episode two of the series.

Rami Malek is the star of USA’s “Mr. Robot”

Hello, friends … and welcome to Robot Road!

Josh Wigler (@roundhoward) and Antonio Mazzaro (@acmazzaro) announce the launch of their Mr. Robot podcast, all about the USA psychological techno-thriller from creator Sam Esmail and star Rami Malek. The show focuses on Elliot Alderson (Malek), a cybersecurity expert by day and vigilante hacker by night, who wrestles with various demons from drug addiction to extreme social anxiety. Elliot finds himself drawn into the world of corporate intrigue and an increasingly powerful revolutionary movement… and to say any more would be to say too much.

In this introductory podcast, Josh and Antonio set the table for Mr. Robot, singing its praises on a technical and thematic level, while stopping short of revealing many (almost any) plot details.

Every week leading up to the season two premiere on July 13, Josh and Antonio will be recapping one episode of Mr. Robot season one, taking it in two parts: starting with a spoiler-free section, before closing out with a spoiler-filled discussion. There will be a very obvious audio cue between sections, making the Robot Road project the perfect destination for new and old Mr. Robot viewers alike.

Get your questions in for episode one of Mr. Robot by hitting up Josh and Antonio on Twitter, or contacting them through the Post Show Recaps feedback form. A show-specific e-mail address and iTunes feed will be established soon. Please do not leave spoilers in the comments section below.
