🎙️ Who Would You Be in the Avatar Universe?
Fire Nation propaganda, cabbage capitalism, and the great elemental picker wheel of fate.
Ever wondered if you have what it takes to be the Avatar? Well statistically, you probably don’t. But that didn’t stop us from trying.
In this episode, the Humor Highwire crew takes a deep dive (and chaotic spiral) into the world of Avatar: The Last Airbender. With a picker wheel, a bootleg quiz, and a lot of delusion, we try to determine which of us would be a bender, what element we'd wield, and how our lives would look in the Avatar universe.
Things go off the rails fast—between credit card autofill disasters, claims of Fire Nation supremacy, cabbage merchant aspirations, and serious arguments over whether combustion bending is a flex or a death sentence.
