2021 Special // Many Saints of Newark

Published: Oct. 11, 2021, noon

In this 2021 Special, Tate and Jacob invite the host of the Podcast of the Whills and Heroes of the MomCU, Nick, to give credibility to the discussion and review of both The Sopranos and 2021's Sopranos prequel, Many Saints of Newark. In the first part of the episode, Nick gives his pitch as to why everybody should watch The Sopranos series with Jacob adding in here and there. Jacob hops in to give a spoiler warning - if you would like to skip that specific point of discussion, skip to 7 minutes and 50 seconds, this will help you avoid Sopranos spoilers that are spoiled by the movie. If you would like to avoid all spoilers for the series altogether, skip the episode and come back. If you want to skip the Sopranos pitch altogether, the trailer starts at 16 minutes and 55 seconds. We then get into discussing the movie, this will be very much worthwhile to listen to if you have never seen the series, just the movie, as that is the shoes Tate is in and Jacob and Nick are able to connect some dots for him. We also talk about David Chase's role and his ability to walk certain lines and then get into some of The Sopranos easter eggs to wrap up the episode before we review.

This movie was directed by Alan Taylor.
