AANG IN THERE: Avatar The Last Airbender Book 1 Episode 16 “The Deserter”

Zak Mohamed (@Zakmohamed32) and Jacob Redmon (@jkredmon) discuss the 16th episode of Avatar: The Last Airbender and live to tell about it.

Zak and Jacob have a carnival of a time as they recap “The Deserter”. They break down fire flakes, carnivals, and one really nice follower who deserves more credit. Throughout the episode, they talk about Jeong Jeong and Zak clears up confusing metaphors with a rhetorical analysis to be envied.

Afterwards, they go through listener feedback, rank the episode, and sort the best four Disney Princesses (Belle, Mulan, Jasmine, Pocahontas).

Zak and Jacob will be back with Book 1 Episode 17, “The Northern Air Temple”

“The Deserter” was directed by Lauren MacMullan and written by Tim Hedrick. It originally aired October, 21 2005.

About Aang in There …

Aang in There is a spoiler-filled rewatch of Avatar: The Last Airbender. Every week, Zak and Jacob break down an episode of ATLA with the benefit of knowing the whole universe of Avatar. We also include the following segments:

* Episode Recap – Zak and Jacob start by giving an in-depth breakdown of all the plot points and minor details from the episode.

* Feedback – Zak and Jacob go through listener feedback and answer the questions or comments written into their official email: [email protected]

* Episode Rankings – Zak and Jacob will create an official Aang in There ranking of every episode of ATLA, by rating them all on a scale from 0-4. Zak and Jacob will give their own scores, plus the listeners’ scores will be averaged and added as the third point. Then, the three scores will be combined to create the official podcast score for each episode!

* Battle of the Battles – Zak and Jacob will rank the Battles similar to the episode rankings. Each battle will be ranked from 0-4 and Zak, Jacob, and the listener’s scores will be averaged together to get the official Battle Rankings.

• Book 1 Episode 17 The Northern Air Temple
