Outlander Cast: An Outlander Universe Podcast With Mary & Blake

by Mary & Blake Media

Welcome to Outlander Cast: An Outlander Podcast with Mary & Blake — where we celebrate, debate, dissect, and occasionally lose our minds over everything in the world of Outlander. From the sweeping romance of Jamie and Claire Fraser to the family histories and tangled relationships of Outlander: Blood of My Blood, we're exploring the entire Outlander universe inspired by Diana Gabaldon's bestselling novels and the hit STARZ television franchise. We're Mary and Blake — a married couple, longtime Outlander fans, and two people who don't always see the same story the same way. Mary brings the perspective of a book reader, while Blake approaches the story primarily through the television adaptation. That difference has fueled years of laughter, passionate disagreements, surprising discoveries, and some truly unforgettable conversations. What will you find on Outlander Cast? Our podcast features in-depth episode recaps and reactions, honest reviews, listener feedback, fan theories, character analysis, and thoughtful conversations about the moments that make Outlander extraordinary. We explore the relationships, history, mythology, and complicated choices that define this universe. We examine the storytelling itself — from writing, directing, and performances to character development, themes, symbolism, and emotional payoffs. We celebrate what works, question what doesn't, and try to understand why certain scenes stay with us long after the credits roll. And because the Outlander universe is bigger than any one television season, our conversations continue well beyond individual episodes. Through our wider Mary & Blake coverage, we explore Outlander: Blood of My Blood, the original novels through Blake's Book Club, historical and character explainers, our One Scene That Matters video essays, and ambitious creative projects like Fixing the Outlander Finale, where we examine how storytelling choices can change the emotional meaning of an ending. But what has always made Outlander Cast special is the community surrounding it. We believe the best part of loving a story is having someone to talk about it with. That's why listener perspectives, spirited debates, humor, and genuine connections have always been at the heart of what we do. Through our growing NerdClan community, that conversation continues with fellow fans who love digging a little deeper. Whether you're a devoted book reader, a television-only fan, someone discovering Blood of My Blood, or a longtime Sassenach who simply can't get enough of Jamie and Claire, there's a place for you here. Explore even more Outlander reviews, episode guides, explainers, videos, and exclusive content at MaryAndBlake.com, or take the experience with you in the Mary & Blake app. Because for us, Outlander has always been about more than time travel, romance, and Scottish history. It's about the people we love, the choices they make, and the stories that stay with us. So pour a cup, pull up a chair, and bring a take. Welcome to Outlander Cast. An Outlander podcast from Mary & Blake Media — by nerds, for nerds.

I love Mary and Blake! They are a breath of fresh air! I have listened to them for about 5 years now and I feel like they are my friends. Whenever I am down I just listen to one of their podcasts and it makes me so happy. They get a little behind but that’s life. They always make the wait worth while! Keep up the great work, you two are adorable!

First of all, I am a book reader and a show watcher, but sadly didn't discover Outlander Cast until close to the end of the final season. I am currently re-watching the entire series and have immensely enjoyed following along to Mary & Blake's podcast through my rewatch!! Took me a minute to get used to Blake's accent 😉, but I am here for it now!! Mary is so funny I've come close to peeing my pants many times! 😜 I absolutely adore your take on Lord John Gray! My only question is Blake's nickname for Mary, I'm just not quite sure what he's saying? Mahvin? 😋 Love you guys and thanks for your dedication and hard work all these years! I wish I would've found you earlier.

Mary and Blake are an absolute treasure and I absolutely love all of their podcasts! But Outlander Cast is my absolute favorite. They are so incredibly fun/ and funny to listen to all while being incredibly insightful and bringing up thought provoking points about the History, the writing, the direction, editing, and of course the acting. They love the show like I do and are equally invested but they don’t shy away from offering constructive criticisms or alternative perspectives. (We are looking at you Matt Roberts). I look forward to their podcast as much as I look forward to the show itself! I feel like I’m having coffee with my besties and talking about our favorite show. I couldn’t love them and their show more. 🩵🫶🏻

Maggie Lankford · Jul 2026

I’ve been listening to this lovely couple for the past few years and to me, it’s been part of the Outlander experience. Watch an episode, then listen to Mary and Blake for their hilarious insights. Their voices make me smile and their banter crack me up. The best is when Mary unintentionally says something that cracks Blake up to the point that’s he snorting and can’t breathe! I don’t know them, I don’t know what they look like, but I love them!! Ugh, what am I going to do now that Outlander is over? 🥲
