Outlander Cast: The Outlander Podcast With Mary & BlakeShow Notes
Mary & Blake recap and give reaction to Outlander episode 7.16 - A Hundred Thousand Angels. In this episode, we discuss a wide range of topics, starting with the shocking reveal at the end about the possible return of Claire and Jamie's deceased daughter, Faith. We debate the implications of this twist and speculate on the potential directions the story could go in season 8. We also chat the tender scene between Claire and John, Rollo, Bree and Roger, the complex relationship between Jamie, William, and Lord John, and Jamie's reluctance to fully apologize.
Also in this episode: The conversation between Jamie and William about William's mother was handled delicately, with Jamie choosing his words carefully to avoid upsetting William further after the loss of his sister. The scenes involving Jane's death and William's inability to save her were powerful, highlighting the harsh realities of the time period. Lord John's comedic relief and unwavering support for William were highlights, showcasing his role as a father figure. The reveal about Faith at the end of the episode has divided fans, with some excited by the potential for magical realism, while others are concerned it may detract from the core relationships and historical elements of the show. The pregnancy reveal for Rachel and Ian's reaction to his dog Rollo's death were emotional moments that balanced the more fantastical elements. The conversation between Brianna and her biological father, Brian, was a poignant exploration of their complex relationship and the importance of family. The overall episode balanced moments of joy, sorrow, and uncertainty, setting the stage for a potentially bold and unconventional final season of Outlander.

Mary and Blake recap and react to Blood of My Blood Season 2 Episode 4, "A Portion of My Soul." Lord Lovat's warning about Brian Fraser hits differently when you know the original Outlander, and Brian's showdown with Dougal gives Blake one of his favorite earned character turns of the season. Mary explains why Henry's letter to Julia works so well, while the hosts disagree over the uncomfortable reunion that follows. They discuss Henry forgetting Claire, Arch Bug's surprising act of mercy, Grace and Murtagh's romance, and the growing threat of Seema. And Blake has a theory about why nearly everybody in the episode is trying to become somebody else. Mary's Kilt Rating: 4.3/5. Blake's: 3.9/5. BOMB Impact: Mary 4/5, Blake 4.5/5.

Mary and Blake recap and react to Blood of My Blood Season 2 Episode 3, "Rabbits Don't Swim," as Ellen and the women of Castle Leoch turn MacKinney's takeover into Highland Home Alone. Mary gives the episode a 4.6/5 Kilt Rating while Blake lands at 3.5/5, and that split drives the conversation. We discuss whether Ellen's flashbacks earn her victory, why Janet's death feels bigger than its consequences, whether Maura has really earned the name "MacKenzie," Colum's sudden change of heart about Brian, Lovat's betrayal, Julia and Seema, and why "You see only what ye expect" may be a stronger line than "Rabbits do swim." Plus: Ellen's pregnancy, the Janet Fraser/Jenny connection, Five Questions That Got Nothing To Do With Outlander, and a truly bananaland Outlandish Theory of the Week.

Mary and Blake recap and react to Outlander: Blood of My Blood Season 2 Episode 2, "The Veil of Time." In this episode, we break down Maisri's massive prophecy and why Lord Lovat may be hearing exactly what he wants to hear. We also debate whether Brian Fraser has actually earned his sudden rise as a leader, whether unborn William could have been the reason Julia traveled through the stones, what Mrs. Graham's connection to Henry adds to the original Outlander series, and whether Uncle Lamb missing that newspaper feels tragic or just a little too convenient. Plus: Ellen outmaneuvers her brothers, Dougal and Maura continue to work surprisingly well together, Murtagh meets Grace, Bug somehow has money for everything, and Blake has some serious questions about that horseback scene.
