Ep. 36: American Gods - 307 - Fire and Ice

In American Gods' thirstiest episode to date, we get a good look at Mr. Wednesday's softer side and explore what's up with Technical Boy.

Ep. 34: American Gods - 305 - Sister Rising

Ep. 29: American Gods - 300 - Season 3 Preview

American Gods' season two ended with "Moon Shadow," not what we typically expect from a season finale. There wasn't much resolution, heart-pounding action, or massive reveals. And we were left with more questions than answers: Is Mad Sweeney really dead? Why did Wednesday flee? How does the World Tree work? Does Salim own a different shirt? The King Bee dives deep into Orson Welles' "War of The Worlds" while Gene Lyons examines the new Tech Boy and how his powers might make him a god unlike any we've ever seen.

Ep.28: American Gods - 208 - Moon Shadow

Ep.26: American Gods - 206 - Donar The Great

"The Ways of The Dead" —episode 5 of American Gods' second season— tackled racism in America, showed us just how graphic STARZ is willing to get, and finally gave us the Laura Moon and Mad Sweeney sex scene we never knew we wanted. Along the way, we were dragged through barrage of historical and mythical allusions, including: the murder of William "Froggie James" Arviss The Dwarf King Yggdrasil The World Tree Hildisvíni The Battle Swine Baron Samedi and Maman Brigitte  and Buile Shuibhne. And you bet your ass King Bee and Gene Lyons dug into every one. Plus, we get another voicemail from listener Tequila Mockingbird and an email from American Gods superfan Elizabeth.
