Warning: Do not listen to this episode unless you have seen the 2022 Warner Bros./Netflix Series, "The Sandman" or do not mind hearing key plot points.

Despite being based on a DC Comic, The Sandman aired in 2022 on Netflix, not HBO Max. It is based on the Neil Gaiman comic of the same name that ran in 1996. Morpheus, the personification of dreams and one of the seven Endless, is captured in an occult ritual in 1916. After being held captive for 106 years, Dream escapes and sets out to restore order to his realm, the Dreaming.

In this episode, they discuss the key plot moves that captivate the audience, and the extraordinary casting as well as production value. They also discuss Season 2, which was announced shortly before this episode.
