Ancient Geeks episode 49: Pluribus

Pluribus is the new series from Vince Gilligan. Why are we talking about it? Because it definitely fits into the realm of imaginative fiction. And we're both big fans of Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul. What else can we say about Pluribus? Unless you listen to this episode, very little. From the first episode on, it's one intriguing mystery after another. But boy howdy, do we have a lot to say about Pluribus. Within this episode are lots and lots of spoilers, for all of season one. If you don't mind, because you've already watched the first season, or you don't mind spoilers, go right ahead and hear our lively debate about this show. [redacted]! Albuqurque! [also redacted]! Rhea Seehorn! [again with the redactions] Donuts! [further redactions]! It's all here.   Ancient Geeks is a podcast about two geeks of a certain age re-visiting their youth. We were there when things like science fiction, fantasy, Tolkien, Star Trek, Star Wars, D&D, Marvel and DC comics, Doctor Who, and many, many other threads of modern geek culture were still on the fringes of culture. We were geeks before it was chic! For feedback, contact [email protected]. You can also find us on Facebook, Reddit, and Bluesky. Also, check out the Ancient Geeks blog on Substack!
