Welcome to the Mercy of Pods, a podcast that is normally about The Captive's War by James S.A. Corey, but today we are continuing our coverage of the main Expanse narrative with the fourth set of chapters of CALIBAN'S WAR, also by James S.A. Corey. This episode is spoilers for the entire Expansiverse!   

In this episode:

  • Bobbie Draper plays her hand at espionage, is unsurprisingly very good at it.
  • The Roci crew discover something special hiding on their ship, and the results are a banging good time.
  • Prax saves the crew by applying his botany superpowers.
  • Avasarala watches Venus toy with humanity, and realizes she's being toyed with herself.
  • Brigid talks Romans and Goths and other myths of antiquity.  
  • Clint gets to talk about Varys's Riddle and refuses to give legal advice. 
  • Soren has a no good very bad day. 

Join us next time when we cover the fifth part of CALIBAN'S WAR, where Bobbie and Chrissie take a luxury cruise.
