In Episode 124, hosts Alyce and Laura revel* in the rizz (yeah, we know cool slang) of Spooky Season! - Alyce is watching everything and Laura won’t watch anything new - Coming to an apocalyptic future soon, probably: cryo-frozen celebrity zombies - How money could be better spent: new recurring segment, perhaps? - It wasn’t for us, but if The Acolyte was for you and you want your voice heard in the call for a second season, here are some helpful links: petition, letter template - Jodie Turner-Smith calls Disney on its sh-t in Glamour UK - The Hollywood Reporter asks if Disney is bad at Star Wars and, regardless of the answer, the article is at least a comprehensive recap of how we got here - On that note, apparently toxic fandom is a thing in other fandoms too (not just Star Wars). - The Art of The High Republic Vol. II finalizes its cover… oh, and it’s release has been delayed - Mando Maybe-Spoilers? Allegedly some plot details of The Mandalorian and Grogu have leaked and all of them SUCK.
