S1 E6: "TRUST ME" | The Illegals: 'The Americans' Rewatch Podcast
The Illegals: The Americans Rewatch PodcastShow Notes
”Trust Me.” Good luck with that.
Spies. Handlers. FBI agents. Creepy strangers in cars. Everyone on this show is asking for trust and almost no one deserves it. The full panel is back for Episode 6 — heated, hilarious, and a little bit Jersey.
Elizabeth beats the hell out of Granny and the panel is mostly okay with it. The guy who runs honeypots gets honeypotted by his own secretary. The subtitles are not telling you what the Russians are actually saying. Henry is the hero we didn’t know we needed. And somehow it ends in a debate about pork roll vs. Taylor ham.
Michelle Kinney, Julie Roginsky, Nina Jankowicz, Lt. Col. Jaclyn Urso (ret.), and Jeff Jarvis. New episodes every Thursday.

Episode 10 hit differently this time around.
Things got a little crazy. Agent Amador got himself into the wrong mess. Nina is trapped with no way out. Julie is still baffled: why are the English subtitles not giving us the real Russian? And the wig survived circumstances it had absolutely no business surviving.
It seems everyone on this show is getting it on this episode. Everyone except Philip and Elizabeth, who are having the same fight again. It is a full women’s panel for Episode 8 and we cannot stop laughing — the wigs, the honeypots, and the wigs during the honeypots.
The full panel is back for Season 1, Episode 7 — Duty and Honor.
