The director of the episode read the script and then pitched the idea to make the teaser a "one'er" as they call it. And Gould/Gilligan were nervous about going for it, and had logistical and story concerns about going for the single shot. But were beyond thrilled with how it turned out. And they wanted to talk about it for two hours on a podcast that had a little over an hour recorded for discussing the entire episode.
When these guys who know all about making great TV and all the behind the scenes aspects of what goes into it are that impressed, you know it's a supremely well done job.
