Some Thoughts on James (Taboo)

Hi guys, Here are my thoughts on the James/Zilpha relationship as I understand it. They had a relationship and lust obsession with each other, which was when James was sent away originally. With that unresolved, it only grew for both in James’s absence. That obsession while apart is something to...

Im Glad to See Things Starting to Reach a Boiling Point

Hey guys this is Kristian (pronounced like the religion), from Annapolis, Md. Big fan of the podcast. I watch you guys on Youtube weekly. I really appreciate the time and effort you put into these things, I know it can’t be easy. This is my first time writing in. I...

Delaney Wont Die: Reasons

I don’t think Delaney will die. This is why: We’ve seen just snippets of the “voodoo” or magic or whatever Delaney actually does. But there hasn’t been a central moment ( More powerful than the voodoo sex). Like that takes up 20 minutes of an episode. I think what will...

Time to Die, James

A little late to write this week. I’ve simply been enjoying the story since about episode 4 – No time to deep dive on my own. I agree with you, time to die, James. Let’s make this a pretty good 8 hour movie. Thanks for doing the podcast guys. BTW,...

On the End Game

Hello from your regular listener, sporadic river-ranter. I’ve just finished the last episode. “Born to grunt” is a wonderful slogan for a t-shirt. Or a tombstone. To answer your question: I think James should die, it makes a lot of sense plot-wise, and I honestly don’t see any other satisfactory...

Taboo S01E07

Hi guys, As every a great episode, on a tangent, this all looks very good for American Gods – my 3rd favorite Neil Gaiman story. Sorry but Good Omens (with Sir Terry Pratchett) and the Sandman series of graphic novels take the 2nd and 1st places respectively. After the last...
