Trying to Understand Media

We're going on a journey. A journey to the deepest depths of unnecessarily long webcomics, to the dark heart of children's cartoons, and to the very core of popular media we never cared about before and probably still don't now. Join us as we ramble incoherently in a vain attempt to explain the plot of some well-known and widely-appreciated television show we are horribly under-qualified to review. If we go long enough, maybe we'll accidentally say something insightful. Releasing episodes Mondays and Thursdays at some undetermined time until we decide to not do that anymore.

    Trying to Understand Star vs the Forces of Evil Episode 3

    On today's episode of Trying to Understand Alien, a reformed xenomorph participates in a ballroom dance deep within The Bowels of Hell. Her face is then attacked by a woman who escaped from a catholic boarding school, but a little light reading and a visit by the Space FBI quickly defuses the situation. reNovation by airtone (c) copyright 2019 Licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution (3.0) license. http://dig.ccmixter.org/files/airtone/60674 ...which we've determined is probably too somber for star, but finding just the right music is a huge pain.

    Trying to Understand Homestuck Episode 2

    We tried doing our reading live this time! I don't think it went great, probably going back next time. Also, the whole thing seems to have been a weird side-story??? reNovation by airtone (c) copyright 2019 Licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution (3.0) license. http://dig.ccmixter.org/files/airtone/60674

    Trying to Understand Star vs the Forces of Evil Episode 2

    Our longest episode yet! Hopefully that's a good thing. Also, trying some background music for this episode. Probably gonna adjust it over time.

    Trying to Understand Star vs the Forces of Evil Episode 1

    And now, for the Thursday series! Star is gonna fight some Evil, and we're gonna ramble about inane nonsense. Some of the audio might be a bit underwater-y. I'll be adjusting the noise reduction for future episodes to improve that, hopefully.
