Happy Holidays from the Binary System Podcast team! This year one of our Christmas presents is some very welcome Lore Olympus backstory on Aphrodite (Ares is his own worst enemy, and for Aphrodite’s sake we hope the breakup takes).

Elizabeth is also happy to report that the latest season of The Crown is well worth a watch (and this led to a digression about the current royal family and why we think the sheer rage directed at one of its members is…weird.)

Meanwhile Kathryn is happy to report that she’s still enjoying the rewatch of the Hawkeye series and some older episodes of Red Letter Media instead of…all the other things she could be catching up on. We still haven’t seen the new Avatar movie, so we’re gonna have to get on that. Later. When the crowds aren’t so awful. (PSA: Please be kind to the movie theater employees. And Avatar doesn’t have a post-credits scene. You’re welcome. Go home.)

One day we may find a better Christmas outro than Christmas on Mars by spinningmerkaba, but today is not that day!

Looking for a present for that hard-to-shop-for person? Want to buy them (or yourself) a square foot of a castle in Scotland? Look no further! You can support the restoration of Dunan’s castle, legally call yourself Lady or Laird, AND if you use http://www.scottishlaird.co.uk/#_a_2gk to get there, you can support this podcast too!
