The team is taken on a surprise mission when they find out Parker is trying to help save her old mentor, legendary thief Archie Leach. His family is being threatened if he cannot steal biotech research, but the building it is in has a famous security system called Steranko. It is supposed to be impossible to hack and steal from, because the system learns and adapts. Can the team save Parker from her own crazy mission? Why didn’t Archie just adopt her already? Why does Hardison call the girl he likes ‘mama’? All this and more on this episode of Leverage.

Season one has come and gone, but before we move onto season two, we wanted to share some of our thoughts about season one in general. We've got discussions on everything from our favorite quotes to our favorite camera shots! Download and enjoy, and we'll be back next time with the season two premiere.

It's the end of an era! Okay, more like it's just the end of season one. It took us awhile to get here, but we've finally reached the season one finale. It's been a couple of months, but the team just can't let the First David Job go. So they come back together to finish the job and help Nate take down Blackpool.

We're almost at the end of season one with part one of the amazing season finale, The First David Job. Nate finally gets the oppertunity to seek revenge on Ian Blackpool, CEO of IYS Insurance. Not only Nate's old boss, but the man who denied his insurance claim and allowed his son to die. A complicated scam involving the lost David statues, Nate and the team take on Blackpool, but are thrown for a loop at the apperance of Nate's ex-wife, Maggie. Things get even more dicey when Sterling re-appears to trap them at their own game.

Special episode this week, kids. Instead of our usual discussion we've decided to do a live commentary track. So, sync up your DVDs and join us!

It's episode ten, and we've got another Parker-centric episode on our hands as we dive into a discussion about the Juror #6 Job. Parker discovers there is, in fact, an evil conspiracy lurking behind the curtain of every routine civic duty. And the team takes on a formidable opponent as they try to help a grieving widow win a nearly impossible lawsuit.

Parker has always been one of the most enigmatic members of the Leverage crew. So, it's always interesting to get to see her backstory and see what it is that makes her tick.  In The Stork Job, we find out quite a bit about Parker and her childhood while the team steals a movie set in order to take down a washed up actress and the adoption scam she and her partner are running to cover an arms dealing operation. We've got discussions about Parker, all the Sophie/Nate and Parker/Hardison moments, and Sophie's ability to act well....when it's an act. And of course, all our favorite moments and TRIVIA!

Don't forget to join our brand new facebook group for more updates, and stick around for Episode 10, The Juror #6 Job!

We hope everyone is getting ready for the season three premiere! Sunday, June 20th at 9pm, the Jailhouse Job is going to kick off the new season three episodes. And in order to make these last few days of waiting just a little easier, download and listen to our first ever special episode, a sneak peek at the season three opener! We discuss the episode (sans spoilers) and dive into a little discussion about where we think season three might be headed.

It's episode 8, and we're diving into the season one episode, The Bank Shot Job. When the team is interrupted mid con by a pair of hapless bank-robbers, the Leverage crew is going to have to think fast to pull this one off. And when Nate and Sophie are cut off, it's up to Hardison, Parker, and Eliot to make sure things get done.

Discussion this week centers mainly around the set-up of this episode, and how it differs from the episodes we've seen so far in the series. Lots of trivia and some great quote and moments. We'll see you back here next week with our special sneak peak of the season 3 premiere, The Jailhouse Job.

So, we steal an actual championship racehorse, in order to fake another championship racehorse. Ooh. I like it.

Nate and the team head to Kentucy to help out an old friend of Eliot's when his stables are burned down by a greedy businessman hoping to collect on the insurance money. But things get tricky when Nate's old frenemy (yes, I just said frenemy) Sterling shows up and is giving the team a run for their money.

This week we've got a suprise announcement about the premiere of season three, as well as discussions about Sterling, Eliot's past, and the episode's southern setting. Enjoy!

Three weeks after our last episode, and it took a Miracle to bring us back from our hiatus! (See what I did there?) Jachelle, Sam, and Chelsea are back in action with episode number six, The Miracle Job. When Nate discovers than an old friend is in trouble, he brings in the team to help save a neighborhood church. But things get messy when their plan works too well. In this super-sized episode we've got discussions on Nate's loss of faith, the repercussions of the team doing their job too well, and the team's changing relationship.

In the Mile High Job, the Leverage crew takes on a corporation whose unsafe business practices led to the death of a young girl. But things get hairy when Nate, Parker, Sophie, and Eliot realize they're stuck on a plane that is about to crash and it's up to Hardison to save the day. (For the Horde!)

After another bit of a hiatus, we're slowly getting things back on track with Episode 4, The Snow Job. Nate and the team take on a family of sleazy Miami businessmen who are preying on disaster victims, and Jachelle, Sam, and Chelsea take on topics like Nate's continued drinking, excellent guest stars, and Sophie's luge.

Next week is the Mile High Job, so stay subscribed and thanks for your patience!

Slight delay in releasing the episode this week. You can blame Jachelle's pathetic excuse for a computer. Seriously. This thing is so bad it would bring Hardison to tears. If computers were people, this thing would be the smelly kid in the back of the class who eats dirt and pulls the pigtails of the girl sitting in front of him.

While Jachelle contemplates the pros and cons of computer homicide, please enjoy the latest episode of The Long Con! It's episode three, and sticking with the episode order of the DVDs, we're covering The Wedding Job this week. Tune in while we discuss Nate and Sophie's relationship, how the team is getting along, awesome guest stars, and all that other stuff.

Much like Nate's drinking, we're back! But we like to think we're a lot more fun. And we're better for your liver too.

We bring forth a new co-host! Chelsea joins the team, and catches up by giving everyone her favorites and a Leverage crew of her own design. We talk about season two thus far, the upcoming finale, and speculate a little about what we'd like to see come season three.

We got a little over-excited and managed to talk over each other quite a bit. Apolgies! We're going to work on that for next time. Enjoy the show, and don't forget to tune in for the season two finale, The Maltese Falcon Job, February 17th.

Stay subscribed. We'll return next week with a brand new episode.

Jachelle's back to let you guys know just where the heck we've been. It's neither exciting nor cool. But we will be back soon. In about a month! We're planning on releasing some episodes before the holidays and come January we should be on a regular recording schedule. In the meantime here are some other fantastic podcasts to occupy yourself with until we're back.
