About this episode

The episode discusses the historical crime show Peaky Blinders, evaluating its themes and character depth while avoiding spoilers.

We discuss Steven Knight's six-seasons-and-a-movie historical crime show Peaky Blinders , featuring Mark, Lawrence, Sarahlyn, and Al. Does the show live up to its initial excellence? It's got a great emotional premise (post-WWI PTSD), and there's a ridiculous amount of gravitas among the cast, but do the heists undermine this heft? It's OK if you haven't seen the show; we hold off on spoilers for quite a while and warn you when we reach that point. Get more at prettymuchpop.com .
