Summary

Jo and Rob are back to break down the fifth episode of ‘Fargo’ Season 5.

Along the way, they unpack ‘The Wizard of Oz’ theory and all of the ways the series is mirroring the classic American fairy tale. Later, they talk about the unlikely similarities between Dot and Munch. Hosts: Joanna Robinson and Rob Mahoney Producer: Kai Grady Learn more about your ad choices.
