Don't Do it, Don! Suicides, Rebirths and the Art of the Finale - a podcast by WNYC Studios

Don confronts his life deceptions in Kansas, Pete is wooed by the prospect of a simpler life—maybe including Trudy—and Betty gets a devastating diagnosis.

Then, Ellen calls upBattlestar Galactica showrunner Ronald D. Moore—who's in Scotland filming season two ofOutlander—to hear how a finale gets conceived, and how to stick the landing. She also talks to Carly Mensch, a TV writer who worked on the final seasons ofWeedsandNurse Jackie, and is now a writer atOrange Is The New Black. Carly drops some writers' room wisdom on where to go looking for hints about how it'll all end.
