Great episode, great reaction! Jordan said Jimmy's car is a metaphor for him as a person, which I never picked up on. I think you're right! This was also an interesting one to rewatch, knowing what's going to happen. When Jimmy uses some of his water to clean off his shoe, I'm like "Nooooo! You're gonna need that!" It wouldn't be a Breaking Bad Universe show without characters getting stuck in the desert.

Jimmy clearly doesn't speak Spanish in this episode, but in Breaking Bad, Saul's ads say he does speak Spanish at the bottom. Did Saul learn Spanish in between now and then?

This episode is always bittersweet to me because on the one hand it's a reminder that we are in the final stretch, but on the other hand the rest of the series is so good! Savor these episodes! You can only watch them for the first time once.

THIS is the episode I've been really looking forward to your reaction on. Whew. It's a doozy. Sampling can be a real art sometimes -- chop the sample up, pitch it up or down, reverse it, and so on -- and sometimes it's just taking a couple of bars exactly as is, as Dr. Dre did with the interpolation (re-recording) of the riff from "I Got The..." by Labi Siffe from 1975. https://www.whosampled.com/Eminem/My-Name-Is/ Here's an iconic creative sample that it took fans 17 years to find (3rd sample in this video). https://youtu.be/Eh0kdRVH9m8?si=ovHJWtbHicVSAmv0

I've been listening to "I Got The..." ever since we watched the episode, it's great, and it completely blew my mind that Eminem used it almost unedited for "My Name Is".

Love the reaction as always. I also couldn’t wait for you to get to this one. I just wanted to add for context how crazy this task would have been if you consider $7 million spread across two duffel bags if all $100 bills would weigh around 80 pounds each! Herculean task and I don’t blame Mike for not helping!
