“I love Mr. Robot the show, and was looking for a podcast to help me sort out all of the details of each episode, similar to the Slate podcast about The Americans. I tried listening for the first five episodes, because I'm so desperate for any Mr. Robot info, but I can't take any more. As other reviewers have stated, most of the hosts get major plot points / character names wrong, or make inane comments that are either overly simplistic or ridiculously implausable, even for a mind-bending show like Mr. Robot. For example, in episode 5's podcast, the fact that a few minutes were devoted to not understanding who Tyrell's latest target is (the guy Evil Corp is vetting for CTO and very close to hiring - the whole reason why Tyrell slept with the CEO's assistant and bugged his phone was to get this guy's name!), is incredibly frustrating. The two people who hosted episode 3 podcast (Ashley and one of the guys) are much better than Stef and the other guy. If it were only Ashley and that one ep 3 guy, I would probably continue. Oh, and the nasally, vocal fry voices, combined with the ridiculous wanna be cool slang makes the inaccuracies and mistakes even harder to swallow. I really tried, but I just can't even with this podcast.”
