In Taking It Down this week, the gang starts with an ending of Listener of the Week (3:07) before moving into the first episode of the recording-breaking HBO show House of the Dragon (4:14). Although a week behind, Taking It Down can't help but talk about it. After the break, thoughts on the second episode of the Disney+ show She-Hulk: Attorney at Law and whether the optimism for the series continues (27:25). Finally, there's discussion on the new soccer reality TV series from FX/Hulu Welcome to Wrexham (37:18). You know, that show about Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney buying a small soccer club over in Whales. Yeah, that one. Who's this one for and is it good?
Anyways, it's all that and more in this week's episode of Taking It Down, the 129th episode of this masterpiece of thought.
