Korra’s Shocking Season Finale Decision Explained! with Adrian LaTourelle ("Unalaq")
The stakes couldn’t be higher in The Legend of Korra Book Two finale, and the world will never be the same. Hosts Janet Varney and Dante Basco sit down with Adrian LaTourelle, the voice behind Unalaq, to break down the shocking decision that changed the Avatarverse forever. Adrian shares what it was like to voice a character who begins as Korra’s spiritual guide and transforms into one of the franchise’s most chilling villains. From the rise of the Dark Avatar and the epic showdown with Vaatu to Korra’s bold choice to leave the spirit portals open, this conversation dives deep into the philosophy, the drama, and the behind-the-scenes stories that make this finale one of the most talked-about moments in Avatar history. Adrian shares behind-the-scenes stories from the recording booth, reflections on acting technique, and insights into why Unalaq’s teachings still echo through Korra’s journey. If you’ve ever wondered what makes a villain terrifying, how the Avatar balances light and dark, or why this finale redefined the role of the Avatar, this is the episode you can’t miss.

The Rise of the Dark Avatar w/ Special Guest Devery Jacobs
Actor and filmmaker Devery Jacobs (Reservation Dogs) joins Janet Varney and Dante Basco to break down one of the most intense episodes in The Legend of Korra: “Darkness Falls.” This is the moment everything changes—Unalaq’s plan to merge with the dark spirit Vaatu threatens to create something the Avatar world has never seen before: a Dark Avatar. Together, they explore what this twist means for Korra, the Avatar cycle, and the balance between light and darkness. From the emotional weight of Korra’s battle at the Tree of Time to the eerie Valley of Lost Souls and the heartbreaking loss of her connection to past Avatars, the conversation dives deep into why this episode hits so hard. There’s plenty of fun too—like Bolin’s unexpected romantic confession and the ongoing debate over badgermoles versus flying bison—but at its core, this discussion asks big questions: What happens when darkness wins? And what does that say about balance in the Avatar world? Will light prevail—or has the age of the Dark Avatar begun?
