This return truly does not happen without the love and support of the Printers, and we appreciate everyone who kept us in mind for one final ride! Moving into the episode recap, we pull no punches in criticizing Sam Levinson's writing for the absurd Tarantino plots and the moments that made East Highland's finest just a little bit dumber. We break down key character send-offs, including Rue's recklessness in her final moments, Cassie's bizarre reactions to her world crumbling and Nate's anticlimactic death by a rattlesnake. Snakeologists, where we at?

After saying our goodbyes to the cast in the middle of nowhere in Texas, we give a final toast to the show's memorable run and close the chapter on one of RNC RADIO's greatest pods. Big thanks to Future and Labrinth on their clearance for the final episode (😉) and huuuuuge love to our faithful BlkPrint listeners. We'll be back very soon with an all-new ThrowBLKs and more!
