HCF S02E03

The Way In This week we face betrayal, sabotage, disrespect. And that's just Gordon. Joe is fighting his way through his future father-in-law's skepticism, looking for the next big idea. Gordon has a project, which, SURPRISE! leads to destruction. He goes from Superman to Zod in no time at all. And Donna and Cameron continue to have poor communication and increased tension. Shit's getting real, guys. Watch it on Netflix, and then hear our take on it. Follow us on Twitter: @dramamamaspod @norwegi...

SETI We pick up in 1985. Mutiny is expanding, very quickly. Too quickly for the nerds at Cameron's house to keep up. Donna andCameeron disagree on how to face these problems. Gordon and Joe are cut checks for their cut of the sale of Cardiff. Gordon doesn't know what to do next. Besides to cocaine in his desk. But Joe. Settled into domestic bliss and looking very well-adjusted, we're left wondering when and how he will be self-destructuing this season. All our heroes are teed up for an interesti...

1984 This week we tie up loose ends. Donna and Gordon are in a new and more equal place. Cameron has a fresh start, and Joe goes to live in the woods. If that sounds like everyone is left in rainbows and sunshine, listen on. There's fire, graffiti, and newly formed alliances. It's a great end to an excellent season of television. We can't wait to dive into the future of next season which picks up in 1985. Watch it on Netflix, and then hear our take on it. Follow us on Twitter: @dramamamaspod @no...

Up Helly Aa ROAD TRIP, Y'ALL!!! This week we arrive to COMDEX! If you recall, Gordon was there a few years ago. He's the expert. It's off to a rocky start when our heros lose both their booth space and their room. Lucky for all, Gordon and Joe work together to con poor nerd bros out of theirs. We learn that Donna's rockin' bod wasn't the only thing that caught Hunt's eyes. Joe is faced with a moral dilemma and we get to see Camerin's marketing skills in action. All in all, it is an excellent pen...

Giant This week Gordon finds his Zen. And promptly loses it. Joe and Cameron ride a feels roller coaster in a glass case of emotion. And Donna is eaten up with guilt. We're all getting ready for Comdex, and sh*t is getting real. Boz gets arrested for cyber theft. Feds sieze all the things, but luckily Gordon thinks quick and assumes (correctly) that the fuzz wouldn't be able to know what they're looking for. Which he later steals back and we leave our crew setting off on a new and uncertain adve...

Giant This week it gets real. Donna gets some action, we learn more about Joe's past and get all the feels from Cameron. There's not much more to say other than to quote River Song, "Spoilers!" Watch it on Netflix, and then hear our take on it. Follow us on Twitter: @dramamamaspod @norwegiayeah @cook1eslay3r Email us: Dramamamaspod@gmail.com Like us on Facebook: The Drama Mama's Podcast...

HCF S01E06

Landfall This week there's a natural disaster. Also, a hurricane. Gordon announces to the office that Cameron and Joe are doing the dirty. He also wakes his wife for some nookie, and in doing so, volunteers to get a doll for his child, which he fails to do before the storm. He's, everyone say it together now, THE WORST. Cameron seeks answers from a cagey and combative Joe. Joe and Donna have dinner, and we're all shocked to find yet another cast member she has more chemistry with than her on-scr...

HCF S01E05

Adventure This week Gordon has a brilliant, project saving idea. And he immediately bombs it. Cameron deals with a shitty boss who likes to mansplain and be condescending. Been there, girl. She handles it. Donna has more sexual chemistry on the phone with her boss than she does with Gordon in their sex scene. And Boz is likeable. As usual. Watch it on Netflix, and then hear our take on it. Follow us on Twitter: @dramamamaspod @norwegiayeah @cook1eslay3r Email us: Dramamamaspod@gmail.com Like us ...

HCF S01E04

Close to the Metal This week, shit gets real. We ride the high of crossing the Doherty Threshold (because we totally know what that is), and the lows of LOSING ALL PROGRESS. Under the microscope of a visiting reporter, our ragtag team of genius misfits must scramble to get it all together. And succeed due to an unlikely hero. Also, Gordon sucks.

HCF S01E03

High Plains Hardware This week we see that the only thing Gordon is capable of killing is his wife's hopes and dreams, but not a poor, dying bird that is craving the sweet embrace of death. Cameron is stuck. Armed with her mental block, and her first paycheck, she goes looking for trouble. Just when she finds it, boom! Epiphany. Joe has to court an investor he hates, so he does what Joe does best. F*cks it up with extreme prejudice. While Boz is completely oblivious. Also, Donna's boss is a look...

HCF S01E02

FUD This week we watch as Cardiff Electric deals with the fallout of Joe and Gordon's ill-advised reverse engineering. And we learn one very important lesson, Don't f*ck with IBM. The team basically implodes and it's up to Joe to talk everyone off a ledge. That he pushed them onto. It's totally rad. Watch it on Netflix, and then hear our take on it.
