    22: Season 3 News + Listener Feedback
    Apr 15 2025
    One great thing about a show like The White Lotus that has so much subtext, gray area, and room for interpretation is the variety of interpretations that we all bring to it. And it was genuinely a pleasure for us to go through all your thoughtful feedback in this episode, plus a bunch of news about what Mike White and some of the actors think would happen to the characters next, among other things. Thanks again for a great season of podcasting. If you like what you heard, please check out podcastica.com and see if there are any other shows we cover that you’d like to hear us podcast on.

    In this episode about how we sometimes cling to the well-worn paths in life, at least one part of the story goes way the f#%k off into uncharted territory, and we’re glad to be joined by our friend Jenny Ryan to help try and make sense of it all.

    Well, okay then. I mean you know this is all your fault for complaining nothing was happening on this show, right? Just kidding, but what an episode — all about fluidity of identity, losing inhibitions, and the never-ending carousel of lust and suffering — and we were pretty fascinated with all of it. The wheels have come off the bus.

    The White Lotus may be a slow burn, but we always find it a fascinatingly, engagingly watchable one. This week we particularly enjoyed Lochlan’s “posture correction” session that turned out to be a disconcertingly accurate look into his soul (lol), Rick’s outing to get some weed, and yeah even Laurie, Jaclyn, and Kate talking politics.
