    Having already booked their trip with Delos Destinations, Roger & Dick decided to review their trip manifest to meet the delightful and fascinating new friends they will surely encounter on the streets of Westworld. Although Roger is particularly excited to see the sights and spend some time antiquing... he will also undoubtedly enjoy the freedom to become who he’s always wanted to. Free of rules, laws or judgment, and with no impulse too taboo, he should blossom like the beautiful flower he has always been destined to become.

  • Ep.04: Westworld - 101 - The Original
    Oct 4 2016

    “Why can’t the Westworld hosts kill humans? What’s the deal with milk and flies? Is that Soundgarden in the background? Is Dr. Ford a robot? What the hell is going on in the Westworld series debut?

    You’ve got Westworld questions, and we’ve got Westworld answers. Hosts Roger Roper and Dick Ebert saddle up with their new sidekick, Gene Lyons, to explore the vast Westworld frontiers in search of justice and the ultimate truth behind Delos Destinations’ corporate motives.

    Westworld! Where the saloon girls are all 10’s and the rye whiskey is best served warm. For $40,000 a day, we can all immerse ourselves in the lawlessness of the Old West. Westworld asks, how each of us would indulge our otherwise unspeakable appetites for senseless violence and transgressive sex, without moral scruple or legal consequence. The series is remarkably stark in its depiction of the cruelty underlying these appetites. All but vanished are the “shoot-out with a bandito” type scenarios of the campy 1973 movie. Instead, tourist’s regales in watching their artificial victims wriggle in the throes of death, only to want a souvenir photograph to take home. “Now, that’s what I call a vacation!”

  • Ep.05: Westworld - 102 - Instacast
    Oct 7 2016

    When HBO releases a Westworld episode early, so do we. Discover the significance behind how guests enter Westworld and how hosts prove their worth.

    This special instacast is shorter than our usual episodes, and it explores the video-game nature of Westworld, how the virus spreads and what the Man in Black is really up to.

    Also, if you were trying to place the saloon music this time, it was Radiohead. No surprises there.

  • Ep.06: Westworld - 102 - Chestnut
    Oct 11 2016

    Time-shifting, barrel-swapping, nightmare-hacking and clumsy orgies top this week's list of crackpot theories as Roger Roper, Dick Ebert and Gene Lyons plunge elbow-deep into this MRSA slit of mystery.

    Westworld Episode 2: Chestnut brought fans more details on how guests arrive at the park, whether hosts dream, who's banging whom and what it takes to get a knife in the hand. As the Man in Black continue his quests, fans begin narrowing their sites on his true identity. And as Maeve starts losing control, we get a dark look into what's happening behind the scenes at Westworld.

  • Ep.07: Westworld - 103 - Instacast
    Oct 17 2016

    Holy robot inception, Batman! There was so much happening in this week's episode of Westworld, we wish HBO would have released it earlier in the week.

    The Rog & Big D debate their initial thoughts on Episode 3, entitled "Stray", in this week's Shat on TV: Westworld Instacast.

    Note: Gene is still on vacation visiting Gothworld, but will return for the big podcast on Tuesday.

  • Ep.08: Westworld - 103 - The Stray
    Oct 18 2016

    A spot of horror, a significant slice of backstory (hey, Arnold!) and a few choice Alice in Wonderland references helped make the third episode of HBO's Westworld the most satisfying yet. We’re three episodes in and the storylines of Westworld are denser than the layers of rock Mesa Hub is built into.

    Rog and Big D attempt to unravel the mystery surrounding Dr. Ford's relationship with his old partner, Arnold, while avoiding falling into never-ending theory rabbit holes.

    Gene didn't make it back from Los Angeles in time for the cast but will rejoin the Shat On TV posse for a new segment called the #WestworldTelegraph later this week.
