Othersode #16: Girl, look at that robutt / Westworld
Join the #BookSquad in the dusty, violent old west as we take on season 2 of HBO’s ‘Westworld’ and spoil literally everything. Find out what “world” squad members want to go to, how we think season 2 compares to season 1, who are favorite characters are, and what worked and didn’t work this go-round. Also, what’s a robutt? We read some great listener feedback about ‘Solo’ and ‘Hereditary’ (and therefore get spooked about ‘Hereditary’ all over again!). Plus, find out what’s on the #BookSquadBlog and what’s coming up on the next fullpisode! Read along with us for ‘Super Extra Grande’ by Yoss, and be sure to catch ‘Sorry to Bother You’ in theaters before our next othersode. What did you think about season 2 of ‘Westworld’? Email your thoughts to thesquad@booksquadgoals.com. Don’t forget to rate, review and subscribe!
