Summary

Jim and A.Ron celebrate one of the greatest episodes in Breaking Bad / Television history! By anyone’s estimate, episode 511, “Confessions”, was tense, gripping, and incredibly satisfying to watch. We can’t disagree. Join us for an indepth discussion of manipulation, frozen firearms, creepy manhugs, Aaron Paul’s subtler moments, Hank trapped in a jar, and much, much more. All this, and our all-star listener feedback and voicemails, as well as our spoiler section, safely ensconced behind a wall of protective outro music. I’d like to pride a few links that are relevant to parts of our discussion; Anna Gunn’s New York Times op-ed on her experiences playing Skyler White, and Mo’ Ryan’s piece furthering the examination the frequent viewer hatred of her character.
