Hello friend, it's time for popcorn-filled podcast recap of Mr. Robot. This time your fearless co-hosts are here to discuss the 8th installment of season three of this incredibly prescient series. This whole episode is about deletion -- deletion of files but also of oneself and things that are unpleasant to us.  Imagine if that was possible in real life! If you have a comment or question, please feel free to email us at thehellofriendpodcast [at] gmail [dot] com. No cosplayers were harmed in the recording of this episode!

Hello, Friend! Just when you think you can escape the dystopian reality that is 2017, you realize another new episode of Mr. Robot has dropped and you are once again watching an excellent show -- but at the same time, you wonder if this episode might be harkening to a near-future reality. We see some familiar faces as this compelling and yet bleak episode came to a crashing end. Is Irving right? Are all revolutions manufactured to take our attention away from larger world events we have little insight into and ability to control? One thing is for sure, Fredrick and Tanya will never find out either way.

Hello, friend. It's Back to the Future over and over and over again as the sixth episode of this third season of Mr. Robot starts with a dramatic flashback and ends with a bang, well 71 of them. Sometimes the best laid plans all go awry. It doesn't matter how much Elliot tries, success as well as happiness seem fleeting for him. If you like what you hear, consider subscribing, rating and reviewing. Time for an “Enchantment Under the Sea Dance” as we slip into podcastland.

Hello, Friend! Do you find it hard to believe that we are already at episode 5 for the third season of Mr. Robot? This episode, called "eps3.4_runtime-err0r.r00", played as a continuous one-shot. However, as in real life, variable -- so many confounding variables -- got in the way to challenge Elliot's plan to roll back the damage he's down by shutting down the Dark Army plan to implement Phase 2. This all sounds confusing but not when you have big brains like Mr. Robot, Elliot, Tyrell, White Rose, Philip Price, Angela and Darlene all working to advance various competing and sometimes overlapping interests. If you like what you hear, please think about rating and reviewing this episode. Thank you!

Hello, friend! Welcome to our long-awaited podcast review of Mr. Robot, Season 3 Ep 4 – called eps3.3_m3tadatapar2.

Grab a cozy seat -- your favorite comfy chair or place of peace -- and pour yourself a nice hot cup of tea and join us, your fearless co-hosts, for our review of Season 3 Episode 3 of Mr. Robot, ever so cryptically entitled: "Eps3.2legacy.so". We saw a lot of Irving -- the master engineer but not the ultimate puller of strings: He's simply effective, efficient and understands his contribution to the nefarious value chain of the White Rose-led Dark Army. On the tech front, we talk about data sets, analytics, AI and how data about us and our lives can be used to manipulate us, our technology and even society as a whole!

Thanks again and, as always, "Hello, Friend!"

What if we had the ability to undo things we've done in our lives? The power to go back and fix things that went horribly wrong might be something we all wish we had from time-to-time. In Elliot's case, at least as far as he sees it, he's burdened with having to try to undo a hack so effective that it brought down the world economy. He even goes so far as to take a job at E-Corp. Almost in tandem with the hack that Elliot made happen -- the 5/9 hack -- we have a scenario where China and the United States are lockstep in a battle of sorts over what will now become the dominant currency. They're not talking about dollars or yen -- the currencies at loggerheads with worldwide stakes are cryptocurrencies, namely E-Corp E-Coin and the very real-world BitCoin. China is backing BitCoin in this dystopian society and E-Corp is having none of that. So hang on to your CHS (confidential human source) if you have one and join us for an exciting discussion and lively recap of Season 3, Episode 2 of Mr. Robot, called eps3.1_undo.gz – s3e2.

A bonus episode in anticipation of our full review of eps3.1_undo.gz - s3e2 -- Season 3, Episode 2 of Mr. Robot.

Faster than a red wheelbarrow on fire, careening down a steep hill -- the new season of Mr. Robot started off at a frenetic, red-hot pace and did not slow down the entire time. The series got off to a fast start with the introduction of of a retro-style "Fixer" named Irving (part Columbo, part Harry Tuttle) who seems to be in the employ of the Dark Army and pretty handy with hacking as well as social hacking. Elliot was definitely shot by Tyrell (who is very upset about that fact) and so we see these characters from an all-new perspective. Same goes for Angela, Darlene and Mr. Robot -- we get to see all of them in a different light. For podcast co-host Henry, the episode had a lot do do with the sensation of "apophenia" -- a word that describes humans' tendency to try to make order out of unrelated thoughts or concepts. As Irving says, “When we lose our principles, we invite chaos.” Here's hoping we lost nothing in delivering this review to you of what we both agreed was a fantastic season premiere.

This is our review of the Mr. Robot "Red Wheelbarrow" book. We start going down a a lot of proverbial rabbit holes as we discuss the Red Wheelbarrow book issued by the creators of Mr. Robot. The book is important for understanding Season 2 as well as Season 3 of the series.

Hold that tiger! All hail the triumphant arrival of King Ezekiel. Episode 2 of season 7 of The Walking Dead -- an AMC show that might go on forever -- was a much more lighthearted story this week. The only thing missing was Carol's cookies -- though we did get a nice blast of Carol, Morgan and we met other members of the Kingdom of Ezekiel. So far, pomegranates and daily cobbler with every meal sounds like a good deal to us. Please subscribe, rate and review us on #iTunes, #Soundcloud, #Stitcher and more. #thewalkingdead

Negan has made it to the Walking Dead World Series of villains. The Walking Dead -- an AMC show everyone (except for the Parent's Television Council apparently) can sure get behind .

After a little hiatus, we're back with a vengeance. Please subscribe, rate and review us on #iTunes, #Soundcloud, #Stitcher and more. #thewalkingdead
