Violent Delights is a weekly podcast where hosts Andrew Sorcini, Dwayne DeFreitas, and Tosin Onafowokan discuss HBO’s Westworld, and the larger questions this ambitious show hopes to tackle.
As another day of fantasy plays out in Westworld”Š”””Ša vast, remote park where guests pay top dollar to share wild-west adventures with android “hosts””Š”””Štop programmer Bernard Lowe (Jeffrey Wright) alerts park founder Dr. Robert Ford (Anthony Hopkins) about incidents of aberrant behavior cropping up in some recently re-coded hosts. Meanwhile, in the Westworld town of Sweetwater, a rancher’s daughter named Dolores (Evan Rachel Wood) encounters a gunslinger named Teddy (James Marsden) in the street”Š”””Šbut their predictable narrative is upended by the appearance of a ruthless Man in Black (Ed Harris) and, later, by a supporting host’s unscripted encounter with an artifact of the outside world.
Andrew, Dwayne, and Tosin discuss Westworld Episode 1.1 “The Original” in depth and ask, has Dolores been infected with the software virus? What is the Man In Black searching for? What sins are in Dr. Ford’s past? and many more questions!
