Second Thoughts on Season Five
This episode of Breaking Goodman: A Better Call Saul Podcast is our season five look back. We’ve had about a month to digest the events of the season and view it as a whole piece. Does it hold up as one of the best seasons or were those thoughts made in the heat of the moment? Who are the season five winners and losers? How did we do in our Stone Cold Locks™ for this year? These answers and less are answered in this post season episode. We’ll be back again soon with our awards show!
