  • 'Industry' Season 4, Episode 6: Till the End

    You can quote Sun Tzu all you want, but there's no art to this. Your options are nonexistent. Your failures as a man, mentor, father and partner have been revealed back to you in unglorious 4K. You're already dead, Mr. Tao, what you do now is for your daughter.

    Bankole, Eyo & Ebube are back, live on CNN, to discuss what may be the best ever episode of HBO's 'Industry'? They discuss the show giving them new feelings 30 episodes in, Eric's dilemma and decision, a very emotional scene and oh, just the entire Tender plotline making us fear for our lives.

  • Ties That Bind: Previewing 'Industry' Season 4, Episode 6 | The Trading Desk

    From Eric's terrible parenting to Harper's insatiable ambition, Sweetpea's glorious purpose and Yasmin's denial, the stage is set for an explosive series of events in the second half of Industry's fourth season.

    Ebube and AJ take stock of where we are now, bidding farewell to Jim and Rishi, questioning Sweetpea's seemingly bottomless audacity, and joining the long list of people begging Eric to get it to together. They also look to Whitney and his relationship with Henry, and the writing on the wall is starting to read pretty ominously...

    This one’s for all the marbles. Your bosses were twiddling their thumbs waiting for lil Jimmy Dycker and now he’s only gone and OD’d. So it’s up to you Miss Golightly, time to show that you’re the smartest in the room. The thing is nothing… Now go prove it!

They discuss the role of humanity in this industry, Eric & Harper being honest and of course, Sweetpea and Kwabena on tour.

  • 'A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms' Season 1, Episode 4: SIX SEVEN!

    "How good a knight are you?"... Guess we'll find out.

    Ebube brings Bankole in to join the the guys for an incredibly fun roundtable and a lesson in the laws of gods and men, but frankly the real question here is how cooked Dunk truly is.


    Once Bankole recaps his own perspective on the show with a carefully curated list of "jokes", the guys deliberate on a wide range of topics, including but not limited to Baelor being the greatest Targaryen ever put to screen, Aerion being the kind of demon that's actually worth fearing, and Maekar living out all the stresses of fatherhood all at once.

    They also touch on the newest Targaryens revealed to us, discussing what Daeron brings to the table and what might be next for the baldest prince in history, all while trying to figure out what could possibly go right in a Trial of Seven.

    What even is that??!!!!

  • 'A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms' Season 1, Episode 3: Get Fried!

    You mess with the Egg, you get fried!

    Ebube, Soonen and some guy yelling about Egg with a bag over his head are reeling from the wonderful revelation at the end of episode three. Turns out our little bald friend is more than meets the eye


    They talk about what Egg’s relationships could mean for the story, as well as how the smallfolk’s view of the royal family might be keeping the Targaryens on edge. They also talk about the offer Dunk has to consider, as well as what he's now up against given his chivalry at the end of the episode.

    Aerion might be a serious problem, people.

  • ‘Industry’ Season 4, Episode 4: From Grey to Black

    Oh, so your past actions have finally caught up with you? Well, you can't say you don't deserve it. However, you definitely don't deserve a night out with Rishi. Clean up your act, go home, take care of your son and self-publish your article. Remember, if you believe it, they'll believe it. Lean in.

    Bankole & Eyo are back, dragging themselves off the road to discuss this week's episode of 'Industry'. They comb through the episode's plot beats, including Henry finding a new puppeteer, Whit's growing influence & the Yasmin/Haley mind games. Later, William Goodman joins them to discuss Rishi's continued descent into the stages of hell and who he brings along this week.

  • Boundaries Where? Previewing 'Industry' Season 4, Episode 4 | The Trading Desk

    Gotta be careful whose house you stay in.


    Ebube and AJ flew Ore in for a debrief on how the lack of boundaries in the Mucks’ marriage is likely to destroy every other boundary in the show before the season is over.


    They touch on Yasmin’s misguided sense of authority and her tendency to default to seduction when she feels cornered, Henry’s newfound self-advocacy, and Harper’s inability to be compatible with peace.


    It’s a wild one, and somehow Kwabena still managed to miss the first fifteen minutes.

  • 'A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms' Season 1, Episode 2: Just Hangin' Out

    Welcome to Arlan's Anatomy, a show completely different from the one we signed up for, yet just as jaw dropping.

    After recovering from the episode's BOLD opening scene, Ebube, Afam and Soonen take a moment to acknowledge the firmly established rhythm of HBO's 'A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms', and discuss how quickly — and effectively — the show is expanding its world.

    They share their thoughts on this era's crop of Targaryen overlords, what makes a great ruler, and why Dunk only has a chance at the lists, and with a certain tall lady, if he actually shoots his shot.

    Also, Afam also tries to convince the guys that Egg is secretly evil.
