E72: "The Reunion" | Walker Prevents An Assassination, Duck Penises & Boku
Join us for a super sized podcast as we catch up on the mailbag before dissecting the two-part episode “The Reunion.” Walker is in a race against time to save a future Republican presidential candidate from an assassin portrayed by Breaking Bad’s Jonathan Banks! The number of times Walker, Texas Ranger has mirrored current events since we started this podcast has been stunning.
Please note that this podcast was recorded before news broke about July's assassination attempt. The only violence we will ever condone is Walker kicking bad guy butt.
