Summary

The Apple Original series Foundation is back. Host Jason Concepcion and showrunner David S. Goyer are back as well and ready to unpack the Season 2 premiere, “In Seldon’s Shadow.” After jumping 138 years into the future, much has changed on Trantor and Terminus. Jason and David check in on our characters — from Hari’s anger that he hasn’t gotten a good night’s sleep to the weirdest mother-daughter reunion of all time. Plus, they talk about the difficulties of filming that unforgettable opening fight scene, and Jason shares his theory about who is behind Day’s assassination attempt.

Foundation: The Official Podcast is an Apple TV+ podcast, produced by Pineapple Street Studios. Follow on Apple Podcasts.
