Taking It Down

Resentments, Decisions, Guns: 'The White Lotus' and Ending of 'Severance'


Listen Later

This week, we dive deep into emotional waters of our podcast as we first dedicate the episode to the memory of Lauren Beck, a vibrant young writer whose spirit and words brightened our community (0:01).

To begin, we touch base on 'Dope Thief' from Apple TV+ and its third episode, but it's covered in the non-spoiler section for those who are still deciding about the series (3:14).

Also in non-spoilers, we cover quick thoughts on 'The White Lotus' and its fifth episode (04:48) and 'Severance,' with its final episode of the season (7:23).

After the break, 'The White Lotus' gives us plenty to discuss about emotions, resentments, and revelations in the fifth episode (10:23. With 'Severance,' it's even more as we reflect humor, heartbreak, and the season as a whole (31:06).

If you like what you hear and want more, there's always The Alabama Take site.
