About this episode

Bill Simmons joins Jo and Rob as they take the stand to recap the seventh episode of ‘Presumed Innocent.’ They open by discussing whether the show will ultimately change the ending from the book-turned-film, the surprising news that Apple renewed it for a second season, and some of Bill’s hottest takes on the legal drama (1:57). Along the way, they rave about Peter Sarsgaard’s performance as Tommy Molto in the penultimate episode, and reveal their predictions heading into the finale (20:33). Later, they’re joined by multi-episode director and executive producer Greg Yaitanes to talk about directing Jake Gyllenhaal, which character he thinks is the show’s secret weapon, bringing the stylized dream sequences to life, and much more (40:25).


Hosts: Bill Simmons, Joanna Robinson, and Rob Mahoney

Guest: Greg Yaitanes

Producer: Kai Grady

Additional Production Support: Justin Sayles
