Over Wax Episodic

Fun, in-depth, episode-by-episode talk about great TV. Current shows: Severance On hiatus: Pluribus, Fallout, Alien: Earth, and IT: Welcome to Derry Great TV is art. It surprises, thrills, delights, and moves us. It can clarify what we already know to be true—or expand our world. Wax Episodic is for you if you don’t just watch great TV—you want to immerse yourself in it and connect with other fans. Hosted by longtime TV podcaster Jason Cabassi (The ’Cast of Us, Welcome to the White Lotus) and friends, Wax Episodic covers some of the best current scripted TV series. With sharp insight, genuine reactions, and a mix of analysis and fun, we break it all down episode by episode—including a listener feedback segment where you guys join in the conversation.

aflevering Severance S2E5 "Trojan's Horse" artwork

Severance S2E5 "Trojan's Horse"

An angsty episode this week as the Innies have a funeral for Irving and wrestle with the complications of recent events, and Milchick suffers the indignity of the dreaded performance review.  Next up on Severance: S2E6 “Attila”.

Severance S2E4 "Woe's Hollow"

Interesting how with just a simple change of scenery, all the weirdness of this show just kind of disappears. Just kidding, MDR’s excursion to the wintery and bleakly beautiful Woe’s Hollow was weird as fuck, and we wouldn’t want it any other way. We’re delighted to be joined this episode by Rachel, who’s been granted provisional access to this audio experience.

Severance S2E3 "Who Is Alive?"

An odd, lovable episode this week, with a lot of small movement on various fronts. I mean, I suppose you could describe like 75% of all Severance episodes that way…. This one had goats in it, which does narrow it down. Some.  Next up on Severance: The season two premiere, S2E4 “Woe’s Hollow”.

Severance S2E2 "Goodbye, Mrs. Selvig"

Is it weird that when we get an episode exclusively set in the outside world that we miss the office?

Severance S2E1 "Hello, Ms. Cobel"
