This week, the hosts of Taking It Down begin with thoughts on the death of Cormac McCarthy, his work as both a Southerner and a Southwesterner, and an adaptation request on one of his novels (2:07). The hosts then give brief expectations on the upcoming Marvel and Disney+ series Secret Invasion (9:18). After the break, everyone explains how the new season of Black Mirror, with its first episode, “Joan Is Awful,” does not live up to the show’s standard (13:41). To end the weekly analysis, they explain how Smartless: On The Road works as well as if not better than the podcast itself (28:05).
