Penn is just so smart and well spoken you almost can't take it! Loved hearing his perspective and it's almost relieving to hear the person portraying someone as complicated, dangerous, and problematic as joe actually has a brain about doing so

[@danalyman5922]

This is so selfishly satisfying and affirms why I love You so much because I fully agree with all of Penn’s viewpoints and ideas about it and Joe. I literally just spent this whole episode yelling “Yes! Thank you!” to everything he said. Thank you for this!

[@mckennaguenther98]

His personality is so cute 🥺 also Nava is 100% right about the Beck and Love thing.

[@navakavelin18]

Yesssss thank you! 😙

[@malu.aupair]

Love also killed Candace and Delilah 😅 aaaaand the neighbor on season 3. She’s definitely definitely a serial killer 🫠

[@Infinitespam]

Yeah definitely. She definitely wouldn’t have killed anyone after her husband if she hadn’t met joe tho.

[@malu.aupair]

@@Infinitespam Oh yeah! So true!

[@scribbledbysophie6589]

I’m a Love Quinn apologist 🫠

[@cynechyne2722]

@@Infinitespam it was Love who persisted in pairing up with Joe, despite knowing who he was from the start. she condemned herself by staying in a toxic relationship. this is the mistake that many women in this world make.

[@Byt_hair]

Beck turned into a threat. Love got to attached…or maybe became to much competition? 21:29

[@liliumpaulk4811]

I am truly a fan of Penn Badgley, as an actor but legitimately as a person. His intelligence and skill, his faith, and on top of it using his celebrity status to amplify and spread supporting amazing things and being a great person and dad.

[@RachelTheVlogger]

I agree that he loved beck because he looked distraught when he saw her ghost in season 2 and he apologised and was crying. If you didn’t love someone you wouldn’t do any of that.

[@ashwheeler1109]

Penn is such a lovely person.

[@1995robin]

One of my favorite scenes was in season 2 when Love takes Joe to try a lot of street food and then she cooks chicken for him. You kinda forget in that moment who Joe is and you fall in love with Love.

[@crystal-leehowley9237]

LOVE POISONED JAMES, it’s the whole reveal with the paralytics in the final episode.

[@scribbledbysophie6589]

I know… I can’t believe I forgot 🤦🏽‍♀️

[@carolrosangel8595]

Thank you for this episode Podcrushed. I can't wait for season 4. Also kudos to Nava and Sophie for asking Penn's fans submitted questions, it was nice to hear his answers from a different perspective. I think is the first time he talks about Joe from that angle.

[@amartyasingh6295]

I like how penn talks about Joe like he's an actual person and not a character he's playing

[@aliciadesantis6184]

Love poisoned her first husband, she tells Joe how she learned how to do the dosage this time around (on the skin instead). How’d they all collectively forget/miss that.

[@navakavelin18]

truly. how shameful!

[@scribbledbysophie6589]

[@harleyfoster5264]

We want Victoria pedrettii!!!!!! Plsss

[@MaRyaYTOfficial]

Penn is a person who reminds me that with all these shows about horrible people and serial killers- that it really is okay to feel deeply about it. Or just in general. I feel like online and even in real life people like to just negate stuff by saying it’s not that serious to avoid hard or even vulnerable realities. Which makes people who feel deeply or maybe are directly impacted feel even worse or just like they can’t voice their emotions. (More so in real life than online)

[@lizziedelleman6052]

In regards to why Joe needs women to be pure- I also think his childhood (killing his moms bf to protect her) gave him this complex that women need protection and it’s his job to do so, and the first time he got to do that was by murder so he just keeps doing that

[@Jerrica8123]

I wholeheartedly agree with what penn said about not playing joe as a serial killer. I feel like it might be the same way with Michael C Hall with Dexter in a way

[@DaniCalderon_G]

This was AMAZING!! Thank you so much for this episode!

[@catherinetobin5862]

THANK YOU for bringing up Gossip Girl 🙈 Dan was always my most favorite on GG! 🙈🙏🏻

[@princessmermaid3085]

Love caused 6 deaths. Killed The girl when they were teenagers that she had to protect Forty, her ex husband , Delilah, Candace, Natalie, and led to the neighbour’s suicide , and she also hit Theo but luckily he didn’t die. She almost killed Marienne if not the kid appeared

[@saharb.534]

[@hotsauce8063]

Wonderful!❤

[@HectorVilla-ed3xu]

Loved this episode.

[@blizzarddance]

Besides that this is the most underrated interview ever, I could watch the show season to season till there is an happy end. But the main reason why I watched it, was to see how genius Joe got out of every situation like nothing happened 😂 like the movie Stepfather, but w a mothercomplex.

[@Ani_Sam009]

Can’t wait for szn 4 of You 🎉

[@realSimoneCherie]

HOW?!!! Joe did not like the real Beck at all…. Joe used to read Beck for filth in his inner monologues. He aggrandized her and wanted her to be some deep, intellectual, talented budding author but the second she committed to him he found her to be lazy, unmotivated and basic and he literally recoiled at her sometimes when she acted shallow or desperate for social attention. He corrected her and tried to “upgrade” her taste at every turn!

[@navakavelin18]

innnnnteresting! Maybe just proving the point he didn’t love either of them

[@danyale_renee]

@@navakavelin18 he didn’t “love” any of them.. he was obsessed with the perception of them that HE fantasized/created. When they would be their actual selves, the fantasy dies which means they must die too.

[@Stoissy]

i want Ellie back in season 4 😭😭

[@Ryan-zj7vr]

First show I ever watched on Netflix is YOU. That first season is a classic. I've seen it several times now. 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@cancerthecrab]

Lmfao I love that Penn even thinks season 3 is labeled as "still?!"

[@justmaya3221]

Like when I first heard it I didn't realize why he said nope but now it make sense, he said that because it wasn't Rhys

[@keiramaxwell368]

I wonder how joe’s potential half brother that we see with his mum in s4 will come into play

[@JustBeingxKait]

The way Penn plays joe is like the opposite of how Stanley Tucci plays grief in inside man - makes me think of moral worth. Penn makes joe redeemable. there is moral worth

[@keiramaxwell368]

As a Brit I’m so excited to see tilly keeper and Amy-Leigh Hickman 😌

[@jack-gr1jk]

omg same

[@alisaarmstrong9375]

Penn is absolutely right! I rejected watching You because I thought it would give me nightmares (as a single woman). I just watched Gossip Girl and fell for Dan/Penn and wanted to see his other work. That led me to “You” and this podcast. I just finished S4. Loved it! After S3 & 4 nightmares are eminent…😢

[@mmyqxi]

"if you could describe season four in one word what would it be?" Penn:😃🙂😐

[@paulbaker6051]

Four seasons of YOU is NOT enough.

[@JupiterSlim]

My fav season is season 1

[@aquilathegreat95]

I didn’t know you had a KZbin channel!!

[@ouerfelliamal7682]

Actually, Love‘s first husband was sick, then he got better and wanted to leave her but she killed him instead, she told Joe about him shortly before he killed her

[@cynechyne2722]

I love this episode. I don't think Joe has ever really fallen in love. Joe unknowingly destroys the lives of everyone he comes in contact with. Sophie, I'm sorry but the character Love killed more than one person. She killed her babysitter. supposedly to protect her brother and then have him accused of the murder.her first husband because she dosed the poison incorrectly, Dahlila, Candice, Nathalie.without forgetting the attempted murders against Gilles and Théo. She's a serial killer too.

[@OmfgHiii]

i love how we have progressed to the point of where Penn is edgy by trying his hardest to not be edgy, like him being appalled in an environment that loves the genre of the show, is so funny...

[@RupaliVenugopal]

Brown suits you 🙂❤

[@Jooniebug]

Love easily kills!

[@madeinseattle_1239]

[@StellaAdler_]

Hehe God, I really hope no one from middle school watched You. Great interview ladies!

The part when he talks about loving Joe if he had a chance to meet him. I have watched YOU because of Penn.

[@sabrinaevans8746]

I love Joe but now I’m in love with Lestat. I hope I love Joe again soon

[@analisatrofimuk5686]

Oh my god I should not have watched this at the gym because I was cracking up the entire time! Everyone prob thought I was crazy and planned to K them😂

[@Blackbeard925]

i just went back to watch that scene with Paco and its true!! Paco killed Beck!! I forgot all about that

[@alexanderellingworth8773]

8:58 -9:00 the smile 👀

[@JaneH96680]

I like how he explains he doesn’t play Joe as a serial killer because serial killers don’t experience a deep range of emotions. Its clear Penn doesn’t want people to romanticise Joe’s character as some sort of troubled soul looking for his perfect love, he wants the fans to know Joe is a bad man who does bad things. That being said I wish he come across as though he enjoyed playing the character more and didn’t bash the character so much, don’t ground Joe in reality to much or we’ll have a tough time liking him. Season 4 has been my least favourite season seems the writers have never met an English person! They made anyone English into the stereotypical version of what Americans think we’re like. I’m English and it’s painful to watch these Londoners played like pompous Aholes with a stick up there butt! I’m new to Podcrushed and enjoying the content! Penn is a fantastic actor and can’t wait for the next season of YOU.

[@lilianal410]

Does anyone know where to watch the one with Victoria Pedretti

[@paolasarmento6734]

A pity that I missed the opportunity to ask a question when they opened on Twitter, I think that in this next season, Joe will fall into some trap, maybe the character Kate will be involved in this, will it?!🤔

[@honestfan420]

Well this is aging well

[@jackiequalle]

I love how Penn cannot even process who Joe loves more but all the women are like "oh it is totally Beck hands down" HAHA

[@lululemon3806]

[@argolomari]

I finished season 3 yeasterday, and i think that was the first season that exposed the real issue about the show, that no matter how smart, and dangerous the woman is, the white man will always win

[@snoozyq9576]
