Episode 14: Ties that Bind

Family: can't live with 'em, can't live without 'em, but sometimes you can choose your own. We pick apart found family dynamics in our latest episode, where we are joined by podcast aficionado (and husband of return guest Sarah Caputo) Joe Caputo! After talking enthusiastically about what's stuck in our heads this week, we get into the nitty, gritty, and bodily horror of some found family stories. The homework for the episode: Runaways, vol. 1 by Brian K. Vaughn and Adrian Alphona, the 1988 animated film Akira, and select episodes of Firefly, that 2002 sci-fi show we all love and miss so much.
