That’s why we’re going to recap the rest of the season! But first, we’re going over what’s gotten us here so far. Sit back and enjoy our overview of S3, plus a full throttle analysis of the show’s opening titles.

2025-04-11 03:18:10 +0000 UTCI laughed so much listening to this episode and I haven't watched the season yet! You guys are Hope for Humanity. Thank you for all of your hard work.

2025-03-30 01:47:17 +0000 UTCI love that your Tanya voice is the same voice you use for Kathy Hilton

2025-03-29 14:32:04 +0000 UTCI literally was hoping you guys are gonna do this and I am so so so so happy

2025-03-28 14:30:11 +0000 UTCI had no idea analyzing the title credits was a thing! I loved hearing all the thoughts. Great catch up!

2025-03-27 12:03:08 +0000 UTCPlease please please cover the next full season of White Lotus and also UK Traitors!!! Ben is the reason I finally started watching and it is AMAZING!!
Sean
2025-03-27 01:48:51 +0000 UTCThe Soapfish reference made my year! Also, Lachlan had a scene where he's laying on that hammock in the ocean which mirrors the opening credits
David Nesmith
2025-03-26 19:26:53 +0000 UTCAgree, but I do also love that his straw hat is Ben’s nemesis
Faith Kupecz
2025-03-26 17:37:10 +0000 UTCIt is a great theory. That scene with her recognizing Parker Posey was a bit random so it would make sense there is a pay off later in the season!
Elizabeth Moore

2025-03-26 03:24:22 +0000 UTCHe is sooooo hot!!! And you know he can fuck 😂😂 he’s got a really great personal style.
Diane Rachel
2025-03-26 03:12:55 +0000 UTCHey to some of us that’s a feature not a bug 😂🫣
Faith Kupecz
2025-03-26 02:19:58 +0000 UTCI think you guys are confusing Dominic West (The Affair, the Wire) for Jason Isaacs! Jason was in Harry Potter.
Veronica Heller
2025-03-26 00:17:47 +0000 UTCUntil listening to this podcast, it never occurred to me that Greg/Gary may have filmed the brothers and Chloe. Didn’t the scene with Tanya and that Italian guy fade out to a small video camera light?
Sarah H
2025-03-25 23:57:19 +0000 UTCImagine how much more exciting RHBH would be if we knew there would be a dead body floating in the water at the end of the season.
Guy Tubbs
2025-03-25 18:08:24 +0000 UTCI didn't know that girl was in blackpink until I listened to this 😂 I thought she was there to distract the guard so the men with guns could get past the gate.
Jennifer Lake
2025-03-25 17:07:39 +0000 UTCI've been thinking the whole time that the younger brother looks a lot like the younger brother on that menendez brothers show monsters and if that was some sort of clue
Jennifer Lake
2025-03-25 16:26:27 +0000 UTCI watch The Righteous Gemstones and Walton Goggins does also look sweaty and reeking of cigarettes all the time
Diana Kohnke
2025-03-25 14:50:14 +0000 UTCI want that for her so much!
Diana Kohnke
2025-03-25 14:46:15 +0000 UTCYes! I rewound too! The camera angles changed, the first time we just saw jerking off and are led to believe he was doing it himself and the camera was lower, the second time the camera comes up higher and you can see younger brothers arm reaching over It was a trick!
Amanda Hite
2025-03-25 14:39:42 +0000 UTCI love Belinda scenes and have a working theory that the whole point of White Lotus is her ending up with the money and have a happy ending - but perhaps I am too optimistic!
Ali
2025-03-25 12:11:26 +0000 UTCI’m so happy!
Mayra
2025-03-25 11:11:03 +0000 UTCRonnie that’s a great theory abt Kate hearing the news abt the Ratliff dude also they showed her on the phone when she saw Valentin leaving the villa so she’s clearly staying in the loop
Julia Francis
2025-03-25 11:10:11 +0000 UTCThe bit about the poisonous fruit i saw as a metaphor for the ratliffs, that the fruit the tree produced were toxic and could kill you....which makes me think...Saxon could be the gun swinger. maybe he gets greg's gun? he is starting to spiral
Monica
2025-03-25 07:45:03 +0000 UTCJaclyn is married to a much younger actor. Also, I love Ronnie’s theory that Kate gets wind of the Ratliff family’s drama and Victoria shoots her. Or maybe Piper gets the gun and Victoria hollers “Piper noooooooo”
Lipstick Junkie K
2025-03-25 07:18:52 +0000 UTCme too, ngl
Monica
2025-03-25 06:55:15 +0000 UTCIt’s Dominic West in The Affair! Not Jason.
Laura Young
2025-03-25 06:22:52 +0000 UTCGood. Because that was a dick move to say what he did. Glad he redeemed himself.
ColeenSkygal0330
2025-03-25 04:28:53 +0000 UTCI was also surprised you didn’t mention the only role I knew him from: Lucius Malloy. 😂 But I assume that needed no mention. Every talk show appearance I have seen him on he has sounded asshole-ish or at least asshole adjacent.
el noodle
2025-03-25 04:22:50 +0000 UTCI came here to say the same. They are both flashing back and remembering the evening. The first memory Saxon remembers himself doing it, but later in the episode it’s revealed he remembers it was actually Lachlan! I also think when he said he didn’t take drugs and didn’t want to take the ecstasy (or whatever) was something to note.
el noodle
2025-03-25 04:16:53 +0000 UTCNot to be really gross but when they showed it was lochlan jerking him, I went back to the first “remembering scene” and his d*ck was being jerked but it wasn’t actually clear it was Saxon (which is what the audience was supposed to assume). I think it’s supposed to be THEN you realize oh shit no that was lochlan! So we don’t know how much Saxon participated besides them kissing.. still the whole bathroom thing etc I wouldn’t say lochlan is super the assaulter with what we know so far, but maybe he is more than we realize cuz of that^ but I think Mike white is big about blurring the lines and everyone being like good and bad and it’s grey

2025-03-25 04:07:30 +0000 UTCHave you watched Carrie Coon on The Gilded Age? She is such an amazing actress. What a surprise to find her here on White Lotus.

2025-03-25 02:19:24 +0000 UTCRe: theme song. The whole song is on YouTube! Apparently the title card is a certain length so it cuts off before the other stuff builds in.

2025-03-25 02:17:42 +0000 UTCWalton Goggins best role is Baby Billy in Righteous Gemstones 💎 love him!!! And love this recap!!!

2025-03-25 00:24:34 +0000 UTCThe theme song is really fitting bc this entire season has been a lot of building tension
Linsey Levy
2025-03-25 00:22:27 +0000 UTCJason Isaac’s did a pretty convincing apology. So you know at least trying to do better 🤷♀️
Cate Lucas
