‘Severance’ S2E8: Cobel’s Chilly Origins

Jo and Rob find solace in the nine to recap the eighth episode of Severance Season 2. They discuss Harmony Cobel’s highly anticipated return, an array of guest stars, and how the reveal of who originally designed the Severance program changes things (2:49). Along the way, they unpack a Dieter Eagan theory and briefly jump over to the literature corner (30:09). Later, Jo unboxes some Lumon swag as they revisit a handful of Cobel lines from previous episodes with the additional context of her dark past (44:41).
