Shots fired in this one!

Episode ten of 24: Legacy (9:00 pm - 10:00 pm) is in the books, and Ty, Drew and Badway recap the blazing hot action!

Ty, Drew, and Badway recap an underwhelming ninth episode of 24: Legacy (8:00 pm - 9:00 pm), as Jadallah Bin-Khalid breathes the free air, Eric Carter mulls his next move, and the John Donovan campaign goes, unofficially, on life support. Where the hell is this plot going? We have no idea!

After a one week hiatus due to a surprise blizzard, The Bauer Hour Podcast storms back for a gigantic double episode breaking down Episodes 7 (6:00 pm - 7:00 pm) and 8 (7:00 pm - 8:00 pm) of 24: Legacy! Despite two dynamite hours, the guys have some reservations about Tony Almeida’s role following his big reveal.

On the story front, Amira has to detain another body, Grimes has a bumpy shave, old man Donovan wins worst dad of the year, Shalowitz hits the bench, and Gabriel gives a tour of his sweet metal wire warehouse.
