Lanterns S1E8 "Dirt and Stars"
Here’s our episode on the Lanterns finale, a series that ended up carrying more weight with all of us than I think we realized it would. Hope you enjoy our take on it. And huge thanks to all of you for following along with us! We really appreciate you guys. If there’s a season 2, we’ll be back…

Widow's Bay S1E2 "Lodging"
In this episode, the mayor spends the night in a charming inn and plays board games with one of the other guests, and it’s all fine. La la la la la la. Mentioned: Jason and Karen talk The Shining: https://podcastica.com/podcast/walking-dead-cast/episode/148-the-shining-1980 Next up on Wax…

Widow's Bay S1E1 "Welcome to Widow's Bay!"
Welcome to Widow’s Bay everybody! Karen and I are overjoyed that so many of you expressed interest in us covering this. And what a pleasure to be immersing ourselves in the world of this wonderfully funny, smart, creepy, kooky, multiple Emmy-winning series. This episode in particular won Emmys…

Lanterns S1E7 "The Jordan Boys' Legacy"
They just keep getting better and better. Such a hard-hitting, engaging episode this week, with perspective on Hal’s past and his relationship with his father, John reckoning with a more compassionate version of Hal, and their journey to a surreal other world. We can’t wait to see how this wraps...
-
Lanterns S1E6 "Bad Optics"
Yet another change of pace this week, with this complicated, somber, surprisingly funny, intriguing, and moving episode, as we see how John has changed in the 10 years since turning down the Green Lantern ring — and how he deals with the mysterious death of his former mentor/antagonist. Next up…

Silo S3E6-10
Wow, this slow-burn show picked up the pace in the second half of season three, and we’re totally digging it (pun!). Thrilling to see so many questions answered, and new ones raised, and to find out that the final season isn’t too far away — July 9, 2007! Join Jason, Veronica, and Amelie as we…

Lanterns S1E5 "Lights Out"
Explosive, destructive episode this week as all the tension that’s been building up in this series finally comes to a head. It really felt like a season finale, didn’t it? Which makes us even more curious to find out what they’ll do with the final three episodes. Lots to talk about for this one...

Lanterns S1E4 "The Weenie"
Compulsory nude figure drawing, a sudden orbital vaporizing laser, and a hi-tech, futuristic slaughterhouse are just a few of the things that made this episode odd as hell, but never dull! Join Kirk, Jim, and Jason as we talk it out! Next up on Wax Episodic: Lanterns S1E5 “Lights Out”. Let us…

Lanterns S1E3 "OutKast"
So great to get some of John’s backstory this week, making it much more clear why his parents set him on this years-long course to become a Green Lantern. A thoughtfully told, thought-provoking tale, and Jim and Kirk are here to talk it out. Next up on Wax Episodic: Lanterns S1E4. Let us know…

Lanterns S1E2 "Trust Fall"
Things are getting complicated this week, with details about who these aliens are and why they came to Rushville, Nebraska, and questions about what William Macon is up to, why Hal doesn’t want to report to the Guardians, how John can create a little green birdie sidekick, and a ton more. We do…

Lanterns S1E1 "Pilot"
Lanterns opens strong with an episode that manages to slip in a ton of expositional Green Lantern lore, an intriguing small town mystery, a bunch colorful characters all pushing against each other’s edges (with some fantastic actors playing them), all while asking some deeper questions about…

Intro to Lanterns
We’re back for another new show! Yes, this show is about members of the Green Lantern Corps, an intergalactic peacekeeping force whose members wear rings that give them powers (and we love that). But there’s a lot more about this series that has us intrigued. Like, why is it also apparently a...

Severance S2E10 "Cold Harbor"
The season really went out in grand fashion, with Innie and Outie Mark in a fierce argument with one another, a boisterous in-office marching band celebrating Mark’s completion of the Cold Harbor file, and a climactic battle between Drummond, Lorne of Mammalian’s Nurturable, and Mark, among other...

Severance S2E9 "The After Hours"
So much heartbreak in this episode, between Gretchen breaking things off with Innie Dylan, Burt and Irving separating, Mark suffering and frustrated, and we even felt bad for Helena being oppressed by her father and Milchick being humiliated by Drummond (devour feculence, Drummond!). Lots to talk...

Severance S2E8 "Sweet Vitriol"
Of course as we suspected, viewing this episode through our analytical podcaster’s lens we found a lot to dig into and appreciate about this episode and it’s implications for Harmony Cobel’s character, the series in general, and what it says about the real world. Still wasn’t our favorite though....

Severance S2E7 "Chikhai Bardo"
What a surprising, beautiful, romantic, tragic, f#$ked up episode this week. We found it especially impactful seeing (and feeling) Mark and Gemma’s relationship and life together come alive onscreen, and then so sad to see it destroyed by Lumon. Next up on Severance: S2E8 “Sweet Vitriol”. Let us...

Severance S2E4 "Woe's Hollow"
Interesting how with just a simple change of scenery, all the weirdness of this show just kind of disappears. Just kidding, MDR’s excursion to the wintery and bleakly beautiful Woe’s Hollow was weird as fuck, and we wouldn’t want it any other way. We’re delighted to be joined this episode by...

Severance S2E3 "Who Is Alive?"
An odd, lovable episode this week, with a lot of small movement on various fronts. I mean, I suppose you could describe like 75% of all Severance episodes that way…. This one had goats in it, which does narrow it down. Some. Next up on Severance: The season two premiere, S2E4 “Woe’s Hollow”. Let…

Severance S2E2 "Goodbye, Mrs. Selvig"

Severance S2E1 "Hello, Ms. Cobel"
A propulsive (and yet regressive?) first episode of the season, bringing up new questions and feeling like things have been frustratingly papered over in that way that only mega-corporations can do. And yet, we can’t wait for more :) Mentioned: Ben Stiller & Adam Scott Break Down 'Severance'…

Severance S1E6 "Hide and Seek"
Ooh, some open defiance on the Severed Floor this week. Can you imagine actually asking your boss what you do? Just kidding, but we’re glad things are kicking into a higher gear! Mentioned: Severance stickers (and other art) by listener Marci Brinker: https://www.etsy.com/shop/ArtByMarciBrinker...

Severance S1E5 "The Grim Barbarity of Optics and Design"
