I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

Are we sure that Nacho’s dead? They didn’t include a scene of anyone checking his pulse

If you guys aren't listening to the Insider Podcast, I recommend this week's episode. Michael Mando is a guest and he has a lot of insightful things to say about his performance as Nacho

Did he say why he chose the tank truck instead of the woods?

Another amazing episode, 3 for 3 so far this season. I can easily look past some of the nitpicky things talked about in this thread because of how well this show's executed.

It is interesting how Saul himself has played quite a backseat to the Salamanca/Chicken Man storylines, which I'm perfectly fine with.

Saul and Kim are the lifeblood of the show, I struggle when it's not focused on them (I always preferred the emotional / relationship drama / comedy sides to both "Albequerque" shows than the crime thriller side); that said, Michael Mando has acted the heck out of his roll this season

It’s almost as if these are two completely separate shows running simultaneously. Either one on its own would be the best show on TV. Melded together they are chef’s kiss.

PS - 3 for 3? How about 60 for 60 (or however many there have been).

Same. Why I’m fine that they’ve already killed off Nacho.

It’s funny he is so soft spoken.

Anyway is he in anything else or just this show?

Speculation re: Jimmy and Kim's plan
Spoiler: show
Clifford Main is a smart guy. I'd be surprised if he doesn't catch on to what Jimmy and Kim are doing, especially since Howard likely told him about the bowling balls and prostitutes pranks. Not to mention the fact that word surely got around in the golf club about the Saul Goodman incident, and isn't it super coincidental that a baggie of cocaine would appear in Howard's locker the same day Jimmy was there? Maybe the person following Kim and Jimmy is a PI hired by Cliff or Howard
