The Leftovers S1 - The Prodigal Son Returns

For our first episode of season two of The Denouement, Josh and Mpona are discussing a biggie: the final episode of season one of The Leftovers on HBO and Now.

Three years after an unexplained phenomenon called "the sudden departure" where 2% of the world's population vanished into thin air, the town of Mapleton, New York, and their beleaguered police chief, Kevin Garvey, struggle to hold it all together.

This discussion has been a long time coming - it's one of Josh's all time faves, and this podcast was the perfect excuse to make Mpona (and all of you!) watch it. We're tackling big themes such as life, death, religion, cults, family and grief.

Next time, we will be watching the final episode of series two of the delightfully sexy sitcom Cheaters on the BBC.
