Belated Binge: ‘Sons of Anarchy’ ’Breaking Bad’ ‘Harry Potter’
Have you ever found yourself in a group of people discussing how great last night’s episode of whatever the new hit show was? Did you have any clue what they were talking about? Had you seen it? My name’s Zac and my answer is always “NO!” When it comes to the best series everyone is talking about, I’m always comically late to the party. Join me as I change that by binging some of the most iconic series in recent memory. Whether I’m reacting for the first time to some of the biggest shows ever like Breaking Bad or if I’m revisiting a new favorite I almost missed out on like Sons of Anarchy, Harry Potter, or The Office. Whether you just need an excuse for a rewatch or you’re as late as I am, let’s Binge it together! Welcome to Belated Binge.

We continue our reread of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban with Chapter 12: The Patronus.
A lot of time passing through updates about whether or not Harry is getting his Firebolt back in time for Quidditch and many reminders that QUIDDITCH IS LIFE!
More importantly, if anything could be more important than quidditch, Harry and Ron are still mad at Hermione and Harry has started private lessons with Lupin to teach him how to...
Season 1 Episode 7: A No-Rough-Stuff-Type Deal
Remember like a year ago when I started my FIRST time ever watching Breaking Bad??? Well... when I starting digging back in I realized I had actually finished watching season 1 and just hadn't recorded all the episodes for the podcast!
I thought a fun way to jump back into Breaking Bad would be to share with you my thoughts from that first watch of all these episodes - a belated binge...
I was super excited to jump back into Harry Potter on the podcast! I know it's been a little while but we left off 10 chapters into The Prisoner of Azkaban - so, today we're picking up with chapter 11: The Firebolt!
This one is not the most eventful chapter to welcome us back to the series, but there is a TON of foreshadowing throughout, delivered during conversations that Harry, Ron and Hermione have with Hagrid, their Christmas p...
Season 1 Episode 6: Crazy Handful of Nothin'

Season 2 Episode 5: Smite
This episode of Sons of Anarchy is called “Smite” and it follows Clay vs. Zobelle and illustrates just how in over his head Clay is in the chess match. Zobelle has Otto jumped in prison (he loses an eye), he turns in evidence on the club blowing up Darby's meth lab in Charming, he blackmails Hale, sets up a street fight, and also blows up a van at TM, leaving us wondering if Chibs is still alive. All the w...

Season 2 Episode 4: Eureka
This episode of Sons of Anarchy is called “Eureka” and it follows SAMCRO as they make their first gun run for the IRA under cover of a blood drive rally. Bobby's bike malfunctions, taking Tig out on the highway - who is then abducted by bounty hunters. Jax and Clay are at each others throats the whole episode about whether to help Tig or deliver the guns. All the while Gemma is back home dealing with inti...
Hi and welcome to Belated Binge - the podcast that doesn’t take itself or the show too seriously. I'm Zac, here to let you relive your favorite series that I nearly missed out on!
Like How I Met Your Father - which is maybe your favorite??? - It's at least a sequel to How I Met Your Mother, which might be your real favorite so you watched this hoping it would live up to the original series.
In this mini-binge episode we'll talk ab...
Hi and welcome to belated binge - the podcast that doesn’t take itself or the show too seriously. My names Zac and I’m your host, here to let you relive your favorite series that I nearly missed out on!
Like How I Met your mother. A show I watched for awhile in real time - stopped sometime along the way - and just finally watched start to finish 10 years after the series finale.
In this mini-binge episode we'll talk about the show...
Season 2 Episode 2: Small Tears
This is the fallout episode. The fallout from what happened to Gemma. The fallout from Jax's decision to cover up Opie's tracks with the Mayans. Compounding fallout from Donna's death.
The small tears within and around SAMCRO are growing, and yet one character shines through: Tara.

Season 2 Episode 2: Small Tears
Tara Knowles from Sons of Anarchy seems to be a fairly polarizing character in the SOA fandom. She’s also pretty polarizing AS a character.
For the majority of season 1 and the start of season 2, she spends a lot of time questioning whether she has what it takes to be with Jax and be apart of the SAMCRO lifestyle.
In the second episode, Small Tears, I believe she proves that not only was she capable ...
Jax Teller from Sons of Anarchy is one of the most compelling characters in television history.
Over the course of the full seven seasons, he would grow into a fantastic anti-hero with depth and complexity. I believe I’ve discovered the episode where his character truly began to develop:
Season 2 Episode 1: Albification This video is part of my rewatch podcast, which you can find right here on YouTube, as well as across all the maj...
Season 2 Episode 1: Albification
In many ways, Jax Teller is born in the first episode of season 2 of Sons of Anarchy.
The thing you remember from this episode is obviously what happens to Gemma at the end. And it might overshadow how much foreshadowing of Jax’s character we get in this episode. How he makes decisions for those around him, the type of leader he’ll become and of course his friction with Clay. This is an early look a...

DISCLAIMER: I recorded this for YouTube (https://youtu.be/ZUZKN4GCGxEback) in June but never shared it on the feed. So, there are updates about the TV show that I didn’t have back when I made it. It still holds up, it’s just not meant to be a “latest news on the TV show” episode.
Will the Harry Potter TV Show be successful?!
If they make it like THIS, it will be! In this short episode I share my thoughts on how to make sure the n...
Dumbledore's Master Plan is a familiar topic in the Harry Potter fandom. But is it real? And did Dumbledore actually care about Harry?
I think my view on how the plan developed will surprise you! I'd love for you to join the discussion and let me know what you think:

I know it's been a long time since I've posted, life has made consistent content a challenge. But, this topic idea wouldn't let go of me, so I hit record!
There is plenty of discourse among the fandom about whether Harry should have ended up with Ginny or someone else. But who else should it have been if it wasn't Ginny?
I think my choice will surprise you!
I'd love for you to join the discussion and let me know what you think:
