In the deep dark hills of eastern Kentucky, we talk about Justified! Spencer Sterritt returns to chat with Earl about the TV series’ latest season, what it means for its final season, and what makes it such an engrossing watch. They also talk about other FX dramas like The Americans, and The Bridge. And somehow, egos are revealed when they explain their hypothetical finale that is so good the producers have to hire them. (Spoilers for season 5, and general series for the entire podcast.)

No lists or best of the best choices here, just pure old-fashioned rambling and nonsense in our own 2013 in Review episode! The original team of Earl, Brent Peckham, and Tony [redacted] are back to talk about the things they checked out and didn’t get to talk about in previous episodes. They get into everything from Out of the Furnace, to Final Fantasy 14, to Paul Walker’s untimely demise, to Aziz Ansari’s latest special, and to Justified, among many others. Along the way, Earl gets tipsy, Brent reveals he’s extremely old, and Tony stays quiet about some of his current endeavours.

Brent Peckham
