FCS: Rock and Hard Place
Say what you will, but this episode makes us Rock (and) hard (place)! Some big stuff happens that we wouldn't DREAM of spoiling in an episode description, but..... ok we'll just spoil it: Nacho takes his shirt off and it's WONDERFUL. Just beefcake hunky perfection. That's literally what everyone's talking about with this episode. The big thing that happens.

FCS Episode 3: Nacho
Sorry for the audio issues in advance! A fun episode though so you should listen anyway. The gang talks about spider-man more than Saul, so if that's your jam.... you're in for a good time.

FCS Episode 1: Uno
We're back baby! After a little break, the gang is here to watch Adam's all-time favorite show by diving into Better Call Saul and watching it FORWARDS, which is a really weird way to watch a show for these two boners.
![Episode 63: El Camino](https://d3t3ozftmdmh3i.cloudfront.net/production/podcast_uploaded_episode400/4973958/4973958-1630293785347-c64121f058fc3.jpg)
Episode 63: El Camino
Meg and Adam cap off their journey with this very WEIRD Breaking Bad movie. Does this movie justify it's existence? Not really!

Episode 60: ...and the Bag's in the River
Scene study! Krazy-8! Meg and Adam talking about old relationships! This episode truly has it all and you should listen to it with your earholes. The biggest takeaway from this episode if you don't listen to it in full: Don't put your butthole on a puddle of acid. Just don't.
![Episode 59: Cancer Man](https://d3t3ozftmdmh3i.cloudfront.net/production/podcast_uploaded_episode400/4973958/4973958-1630293739953-b6deefa5d65a9.jpg)
Episode 59: Cancer Man
Oh look it's a bird, it's a plane, it's Cancer Man. That joke needed to be made, and we've done it. The gang also welcomes Combo and Skinny Pete for the first time.

Episode 58: Gray Matter
It's the Elliot and Gretchen origin story you didn't know you wanted. Also, Adam's family interrupts the recording like... a BUNCH, and we all need to be cool with that. All in all this episode of the podcast is much better than a B+.

Episode 57: Crazy Handful of Nothin'
As the show winds down we say goodbye to our beloved Tuco and all his quirks. We may have known him for a mere four episodes but his impression will live ever onward. This episode also features a lot of football talk for some reason so if you're into that sort of thing..... here you go!

Episode 46: Over
Walt is OVER cooking meth. Jesse is OVER being treated mean by his girlfriend. The sun hangs OVER the southwest. Lot's of stuff being over in this episode, so that's why the title is so apt.

Love is in the air everyone! Unfortunately, Adam and Meg are both very single, so they celebrated this year's Valentine's day by getting hammered on microphone and talking about an episode of television from 2009. It is very fun and very embarrasing.

![Episode 39: Green Light](https://d3t3ozftmdmh3i.cloudfront.net/production/podcast_uploaded_episode400/4973958/4973958-1630293474370-e3a7f0e332768.jpg)

Episode 36: One Minute
What an oops! Adam and Meg recorded a whole dang episode that is now lost to the sands of time due to technical difficulties. But that won't stop them from talking about possibly the most acclaimed episode of breaking bad that doesn't rhyme with "Drozymandias". They'll completely re-write the famous shootout scene to make it even better too so if you're listening to this and have Vince Gilligan's number, please pass this along.
![Episode 35: I See You](https://d3t3ozftmdmh3i.cloudfront.net/production/podcast_uploaded_episode400/4973958/4973958-1630293374687-055b1e269d89f.jpg)

An entire episode that takes place mostly in a hospital waiting room. This is what Adam and Meg discuss and break down. And do you know what hospitals have in abundance? Under fives!

Episode 32: Abiquiu
Flynn talks about cars too much! Walt kind of just repeats what he hears! Come join the gang as they plod through a very mediocre episode of Breaking Bad to record a VERY good episode of Breaking Backwards. There is no talk of feet this week but they'll get back to that soon, they swear.
