Cordkillers 570: Binge or Buzz?
Netflix’s binge model changed how we watch TV, but 12 years after House of Cards premiered, the debate continues: all-at-once drops or weekly episodes for maximum buzz?

This week on The FULL Experience: Yellowstone (514 – “Life Is A Promise”)
Next week: Speed Racer (101 – “The Great Plan Part 1”)
