Belated Binge: Sons of Anarchy

Sons of Anarchy might be the greatest drama written for television and I nearly missed it! I’m Zac and welcome to belated binge sons of anarchy!  Our beloved members of SAMCRO graced tv screens from 2008-2014 and I didn’t join the ride until 2018! 4 years after the series finale.  I was a few months removed from buying my first Harley Davidson of my own - I was scrolling Netflix for something new...

The tension that's been building between Jax and Tig comes to blows. Wendy doesn't get her happy ever after. Gemma discovers the book Jax has been reading and feels Clay is losing his grip.

It's another episode rewatch of SOA season 1, episode 12: Sleep of Babies and I'm joined by the real star of the Belated Binge podcast, Cousin Amy! This episode, Agent Stahl's plan backfires in the ultimate way. Clay and Tig's mission to kill Opie has an unexpected twist when Opie saves Tig's life from the Niners crashing their gun deal with the Mayans. After a coming home part...

It's another episode rewatch of SOA season 1, episode 11: CapybaraThis episode, Agent Stahl is playing DIRTY arresting Bobby for the murder of Hefner and taking Opie, Donna and the kids to a witness protection facility. She sets Opie up as if he's the witness who accused Bobby so that Clay and the rest of SAMCRO will think he's a rat. The plan works. Too well. Despite Jax Teller insist...

If you love Sons of Anarchy and you consume fan content covering our beloved SAMCRO, you'll recognize my guest on this episode. I’m thrilled to be joined by Celle from The Celle SOA on YouTube and two massive Sons of Anarchy fan pages on Instagram (@sonsofanarchyofficialfanpage) and Tiktok (@sonsofanarchyofficial), to discuss the future of the biker world we all love.

It's another episode rewatch of SOA season 1, episode 9: Hell Followed and this time I'm joined with my first guest on the SAMCRO binge: McTuggy from Tuggy's Top 10, 35 Years of Movies and a bunch of other podcasts! We’re experiencing the fallout of Jax killing Agent Kohn and the Mayans' failed hit attempt on Clay and Darby. We get an MC summit courtesy of Unser and the Charming PD...

It's another episode rewatch of SOA season 1, episode 8: The Pull! We’re about to bring our 2 main plot lines for season 1 to a close in what I can only describe as an absolutely chaotic ride of an episode. We get square with the Irish, although that goes very very wrong when some very poor aim sends bullets in Clay's direction. We also close the saga on Agent Kohn stalking Tara and have s...

In this SOA topic episode, I'm sharing 2 stories I recently became aware of that will make Jax Teller feel more REAL!1. Charlie Hunnam based his portrayal of Jax Teller on a REAL biker he met!2. Recent news on a member of a real life 1% club who's been referred to as the "Real Life Jax Teller" These were just fun for me to learn about and as a big fan of SAMCRO and someone fascin...

It's another episode rewatch of SOA season 1, episode 7: Old Bones! In this one, secrets are buried with the bodies... Seriously. A lot of club history and secrets being dug up. Some very inappropriate urination takes place. Also, Jax stabs a car and throws a federal agent through a window!

We get our first glimpse of Jax as a leader of SAMCRO in AK-51. Not so much by choice, but my necessity. When Clay is taken into ATF custody by Agent Stahl for being an accessory to a crime after one of the suspects placed a call to TM, Jax is thrown into the fire to find a way to:1. Find the people responsible to avoid the whole club getting arrested for selling the guns to people who used them t...

Giving back is a big Opie episode! We find out why Opie was in prison and who in the club let him down when an ex-member comes to see his son's band play at Gemma's town fundraiser. Fitting for a July 4th release, Opie is in charge of fireworks! Jax is tasked with keeping an eye on him and making sure he doesn't cross paths with Opie. This lasts about 4 minutes and the inevitable alter...

Patch Over might be my favorite episode of season 1! Jax and Bobby take a ride up to Nevada to meet with an affiliate club that's dealing with some heat from the Mayans to exchange favors. When their "under the radar" visit becomes very very above the radar, Clay decides it's time to make the Devil's Tribe official members of Sons of Anarchy aka PATCH OVER! Along the way we g...

TRIGGER WARNING: SEXUAL ASSAULT Funtown is not a particularly fun episode topic. It begins with a light-hearted trip to a small town carnival, which gets heavy quickly. The rest of the episode consists of our boys in SAMCRO tracking down the sick individual who committed the crime. Once they find him, they remove his ability to do any such acts again. For bonus episodes as well as many other benef...

The Seeds is a funny episode really! It's full of mini side missions. Tig's past relations are brought into question, leading to a side mission to avoid an unfortunate discovery of his DNA that would put SAMCRO at jeopardy. Jax convinces a crow eater to take one for the team and may have contributed to a man being stabbed in the head with an axe??? Clay runs his own side mission with Opie...
