I only found this podcast in April 2025 and have loved every episode so far. this was a good episode too, however, giving any kind of credence to Many Saints of Newark is just wrong. it's an awful film. the gulf of quality between the series and the film is enormous. the studio gave david chase way too much power, and the fact he signed off on the final edit,and thought it was a worthy effort of the series shows he completely lost touch.
