Summary
In this episode of Outlander Cast, Mary & Blake dive into your listener feedback for Outlander Season 8, Episode 5, "Send for the Devil."
This week's conversation is all about Buck MacKenzie becoming the unexpected hero of the hour, Ben returning alive and detonating the William and Amaranthus storyline, Claire and Elspeth delivering one of the strongest scenes of the season, and the growing feeling that Season 8 is both overwhelming and underwhelming at the same time.
We also get into your thoughts on:
- Roger's battlefield storyline and that letter to Bree
- the pacing and structure of the season so far
- whether Cunningham really worked as a villain
- why so many viewers are completely out on Amaranthus
- Buck's popularity surge
- Faith theories, ghost Jamie theories, and plenty of outlandish speculation
Plus, listener emails, comments, and voicemails from all over the world as we break down what the fandom is loving, questioning, and side-eyeing after Episode 5.
