509 – Blood Money – Instant Take

This episode was nothing like what I expected and everything I was secretly hoping for. And because of 229 generous souls who backed our Kickstarter project, we’ll be doing one of these bonus “Instant Take” podcasts after EVERY episode!

Tune in to find out Jim and A.Ron’s reactions, reviews, and off the cuff predictions and analysis. And be sure to check back Tuesday evening for our full, in-depth coverage of Breaking Bad. If tonight is any indication, we’re in for a wild ride.
