The Lord of the Rings
In this episode, special guest Dr. Matt Hasenjager tells Stephanie and Brit all about his life-long love of all things Tolkien, including The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings, and The Silmarillion. We talk fantasy, narrative, struggle, and, of course, Sauron's fuckboy summer.

Jason Todd
In this episode, Stephanie tells Brit all about the various Robins - that's right, there's more than one! We focus on Jason's development, death, and resurrection, as well as how his storyline overlaps with and reflects major cultural touchstones, including tough on crime, the war on drugs, and the figure of the welfare queen. Ultimately, we decide that Jason needed loving and caring parents, and that Batman needs to stop taking in distressed teenagers.

The Last of Us
Content Warning: In this episode, we do talk about suicide and murder, as it relates to both the game and the show. We spend time discussing the death of Black characters, in particular. If this is something that's not okay for you to hear right now, we recommend a different episode. In this episode, Brit and Stephanie talk about their memories of playing The Last of Us in 2015-2016, and how our feelings about the game have changed over time, with the onslaught of zombie shows like The Walking Dead as well as living through a real pandemic. We talk the game v. the show, especially where we think the show made good changes (i.e. Bill and Frank), and where the show really let us down (i.e. Henry and Sam). Ultimately, we conclude that, 1) maybe we don't need any more post-apocalyptic stories for a while; and 2) maybe becoming a fungus person wouldn't be too bad.
