Paper Girls: Past, Present, and Future
<p>MAJOR SPOILERS in this episode for both the comic series and TV show called Paper Girls. What would your 12-year-old self think of you right now in your life? This is one of the questions we answer for ourselves in this episode as we compare and talk about Paper Girls, the comics and the new TV show now streaming on Amazon Prime. We also cover wibbly wobbly stuff like time travel too, so don’t worry. SHOW NOTES: <a href="http://groundedgeeks.medium.com/">groundedgeeks.medium.com</a></p>

Love, Death & Robots: Life As We Don't Know It
<p>Welcome to Part 2 of our discussion of Love, Death & Robots Volume 3. This time we discuss three different episodes titled, "Bad Travelling," "The Very Pulse of the Machine," and "Mason's Rats." All of these episodes had us thinking about life as we DON'T know it. And by life, we mean what constitutes a living thing? Can artificial intelligence be living? What kind of creatures live in the deep ocean that wouldn't necessarily meet the definition of life? In the future, how will animals evolve in ways that we can barely imagine? So many questions and not nearly enough answers, but join us for the conversation anyway. SHOW NOTES: <a href="http://groundedgeeks.medium.com/">groundedgeeks.medium.com</a></p>

The Umbrella Academy Season 3: Spacetime Unraveling and...Cats
<p>SPOILERS for the Netflix show, The Umbrella Academy season 3. Naturally on this episode we had to discuss the unraveling of spacetime, what is real or not, whether a bad deed is worth it if it's for the greater good, and...you get to hear Lena's cat, Raya, meowing in the background. We hope you find it more endearing than Aman did. SHOW NOTES: <a href="http://groundedgeeks.medium.com/">groundedgeeks.medium.com</a></p>
