The official HBO Succession podcast, hosted by Kara Swisher, is excellent. They have access to cast members, writers, and show runners. Check it out.

Dr. Ramini has a great series breaking down Season 4 episodes through the lens of narcissism.

That interview with Strong also contains an incredible link to a Jesse Armstrong piece in the Grauniad about the show's origins, to the extent that the ending puts the beginning into perspective.

The Prestige TV podcast did two episodes. The first one was an immediate reaction - I preferred the second one, which felt more thoughtful and has a great interview with Mark Mylod.
