It's 7 p.m., and Jack still hasn't had a bite to eat since he got off the plane from China. Vice President Noah Daniels is dying to nuke that mysterious Muslim country to be named later, Tom Lennox seems to be nearing the limits of his obsequiousness, and Marilyn Bauer has some very sad news about Audrey Raines. Oh, and a nuclear-armed drone is heading toward San Francisco.
As part of Slate's Spoiler Special podcast series—recently expanded to include TV shows—we've been hosting regular "post-view" discussions of Season 6. (Click here to listen to a discussion of the first four hours, here for a discussion of Hour 5, here for Hour 6, here for Hour 7, here for Hours 8 and 9, here for Hour 10, here for Hour 11, here for Hour 12, and here for Hour 13.) In this podcast, Slate's June Thomas and Julia Turner wonder if that story about Audrey is really true, celebrate the return of Karen Hayes, and ask if Mike Doyle is simply a less charming bizarro-world version of Jack.
Because we reveal plot twists in these chats, we recommend—but don't insist—that you watch the show before listening to the program.
