In Succession's final season premiere, a merger-of-the-week plays out in sunny California with dark clouds on the horizon. Marie Bertonneau returns to the RoyCast to discuss Logan's troubling state of mind, Catholic perspectives on sin and redemption, the world's dullest birthday party, a rare glimpse into Colin's backstory, the show's relationship with the modern American right wing, the Comedy Central Roast of Logan Roy, new developments in Shiv and Tom's fractured marriage, sympathy for Shiv, the Disgusting Brothers, Architectural Digest tours, hypermarche vin ordinaire, and getting the facts about The Hundred. ~~~ RoyCast is a passion project and we incur minor ongoing expenses related to producing and hosting this independent podcast. The show will never be paywalled, but for those who would like to support you can do so here: roycast.square.site/ ~~~ Marie Bertonneau tweets from @marieberd.
