The Apple of Truth: Podcast

The end is getting nearer, Vero's prediction keep driving Lina up the walls, more LOTR references and paralleling needs stating and all in all this just continues to be utterly delightful on every level. Summoning episode is coming up, so if you want, please do send us your thoughts to our email dirkgently@taot-podcast.com  or use our social media accounts: Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/t...

This will never get shorter, we're afraid. Strap in, because we discuss every single detail of this episode and Lina is hell bent on trying to push Vero into more and more predictions. And if you feel like we don't seem to remember what we discussed at the start of the episode that well, it's because we had to break this recording in two, due to....wait for it... technical difficulties. Hopefully...

Just over 2 hours because once again, there is not only way too much happening but also Vero has all the predictions, Lina has all the leading and non-leading questions and both of us just love to drive the other insane. Join us for wild theories (TM), various DnD references and the usual shenanigans you've come to expect from us! If you want, please do send us your thoughts to our email dirkgentl...

Just squeezing today's episode under 90 minutes, but it is BURSTING with information and entertainment! Vero is probably still running victory laps around her house, because a complete random and a very specific prediction came true, and Lina is never going to stop chuckling about some other wild guesses, that came out of this recording. Mostly you'll learn what is the difference between a whoosh-...

There seem to be no short recordings this season, because why would there? Vero continues making predictions left and right, some come true, all are entertaining (if you know you know) and Lina tries her best to not spoiler anything (which is getting harder by the episode because ISN'T IT OBVIOUS BY NOW?) Enjoy and if you want, send us your thoughts to our email dirkgently@taot-podcast.com  o...

In this chunk of an episode, Vero's predictions keep coming, and you better believe, that Lina made sure to extract as many as humanly possible. We debate Alan Tudyk being a part of this tv show, Lina melts over Amanda's haircut and Vero falls into conspiracy spirals, while Lina hides behind her microphone. AKA all the good stuff! Enjoy and if you want, send us your thoughts to our email dirkgentl...

Season 2 time! And this time around, Vero knows nothing which leads to amazing moments of Lina biting her tongue and hilarious predictions if you are in the know. This is a long one, so strap in for all the details and debates in true TAOT fashion. Enjoy and if you want, send us your thoughts to our email dirkgently@taot-podcast.com  or use our social media accounts: Twitter: https://twitter....

WE ARE BACK! The absolute wreck of life has crashed into us in full force, but we have finally sat down to talk about season 1 of Dirk Gently. As per usual, this is a chunky episode, with all our classics (favourite/least favourite character), and new things (predictions, predictions), and at one point we watch some bonus materials, discovered on YouTube, so there are some silences there, if you w...

Finale time! And oh wow, Vero was in for a RIDE! So strap in for some intense emotions, caps-lock notes and the usual amount of our own typical weirdness :D As usual for this series, the episode is on the longer side, you're welcome! Next episode will be the Summoning episode, so if you are getting this on the early feed, you still have ONE MORE DAY to send in your feedback. Either via dirkgently@...

Action-packed episode brings disagreements apparently! Though we both had a great time watching the episode itself, it turned out, we have watched a sligtly different thing. Lina focused on new information, while Vero reveled in trying to read old scenes through new eyes. But it wouldn't be us, if we didn't make the best of it, and Lina didn't grill Vero on some fun predictions, so have fun, and d...

This is a junky one because for the first time this season, we are actually disagreeing on things! And if you listened to our older stuff, you know what that means - lengthy debates... But also there is a lot happening in this episode, many questions are raised, Vero draws some curious conclusions that Lina tries very hard to not comment too obviously on, and a lot of direct lines are quoted becau...

In episode 5, we get to at least briefly hang out with all of our characters, and especially Amanda with the Rowdy 3 are making Lina very happy. There is some general disagreement about Friedkin, but mostly this was a very chill and fun episode. Disclaimer, we are convinced, that this tv show is happening in California, so please don't yell at us for being so shocked, that Bart is in Seattle. If y...

With the first half of the season done, Vero is finally able to answer Elijah Wood's question from MagicCon but still juggles so many other questions. Lina laments the absense of Bart but instead focuses her appreciation on Amanda and the Rowdy 3. Join us as we ponder the possibilities of Gordon Rimmer's intentions, debate the destinies of our main four and ramble about the ramifications of acts c...

The plot thickens, as Dirk and Farah follow a treasure map, Todd and Ken become willing participants and Amanda gets closer to the Rowdy 3. Lina and Vero endlessly debate details of everything and discover some fun tidbits while working together. And if you think, you can help us clear up some of our disagreements, or feel like we're completely off hte reservation with our theories, please reach o...

Everything's connected, but how exactly remains still unclear for us. Join us for detailed analysis, freeze frame frenzies and some pretty wild theories in this second episode of Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency. And if you have anything to add, please reach out to us at dirkgently@taot-podcast.com  . You can also use either of our social media accounts: Twitter:   https://twitter...

WE ARE BACK! After some much needed rest, we are back with vengance AND a new show. We are diving into Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency, produced by Netflix in 2016! And because we are still us, this episode will be extremely chunky, because there is much to be discused and introduced. Prepare for new segments, loads of freeze framing and many theories based on Vero's 6 episode binge in the...

At the end of the season, we go a bit chaotic (okay, more chaotic than usual) and wrap up everything in our very own way. Welcome to the first Summoning episode for The Sandman. And since this is as long as these episodes tend to be, have a list of timestamps to help you skip ahead if you so want: 00:00:00 Intro and how this is going to work 00:03:16 Classic Bits - Favourite character 00:06:55 Cla...

It is time to finish the extra episode for this season, with "Calliope" and oh myyy we enjoyed this. Join us with a bit of all the emotions, as we agree on many things, except the thirst moment obviously, or certain ways to read a scene, but all in all this was a joy to record. What an amazing end to this season. But it is not the end for our season, next up is the Summoning episode and so do send...

Be aware: This is only the first part of the bonus episode of season 1, Calliope will be released in two weeks. This will probably also feel quite a bit different than the previous 10 episodes. We started this episode with very different thoughts and feelings but while talking about it, we came to see more and more parallels and metaphors in this and if we had taken them out, the actual coverage w...

IT'S FINALE TIME! Strap in, it's a long one! In this episode, we mostly actually agree on things, which was a welcomed surprised, but it also comes to show how well the season ended up working. We debate Dream's development in length, Lina cries over the Corinthian and Vero blows Lina's mind on several occasions. Most importantly, we add many new questions to our ever-growing list. If you, too, wo...

Once again we did not know how to talk less. Not only because we were seeing very different motivations in various characters, but also because there simply is a lot to talk about in this episode. So join us for some more Corinthian thirst, some Stephen Fry appreciation and some very odd agreements and disagreements between the two of us. The finale is next and thus the Summoning episode is happen...

In this episode, we learn much new information about Rose, Vero finally stops suspecting Lyta of treason, and Lina brings some extra covert insight, because she had accidentally watched the wrong episode in preparation. Of course we throw in some burning questions and wild theories, because what are we, if not consistent. Speaking of consistency, expect some disagreements, as we continue to read c...

This is a long one, so get some tea (or something stronger) and settle in. There is A LOT of thirsting in this episode, curtesy of more Corinthian screentime, there are quite a few disagreements about various character motivations, there are some funny misunderstandings, there is the usual amount of debating incredibly important sidenotes and after a long time we finally have some language lessons...

The duality of this episode worked really well for us, with essentially two separate stories and two new characters introduced, we had few reasons to complain. That being said, we still found some. However the mutual enjoyment was much more important! We did bring some guesses and hot takes though, so if you want to give us some feedback on those, here's where you can find us: If you have want to...

Our final John episode and Lina is very sad. But aside from that, we really loved this one! Vero has some interesting feelings about this, Lina is a bit confused, there are some special moments for each of us and despite staying mostly on track, we still managed to go on longer than planned. If you have want to share your thoughts with us, please send us an email to sandman@taot-podcast.com You ca...
