Host Victor and Sona discuss HBO’s DTF: St. Louis after episode 2, debating whether it works as a dark comedy and criticizing its shifting framing devices and repeated scenes while trying to reconstruct a clear chronology of events leading to Floyd’s death. They compare “he said/she said” perspectives, note David Harbour’s concert/sign-language subplot, the detectives’ competing theories, and key evidence such as the Tiger profile, IP-address ambiguity, and a prescription delivered to Jason Bateman’s house, leading them to suspect Bateman’s wife may be framing him. They also flag open questions about Floyd’s stepson, Carol’s behavior, and how the story can sustain multiple episodes. Victor briefly reviews Netflix’s Vladimir as frustrating and unsatisfying, recommends Rooster based on its first episode, and they touch on Shrinking, plus upcoming shows Scarpetta and other podcast coverage.
