Into the Falls: A Gravity Falls Podcast

[Note: Due to a technical glitch during recording, the audio quality drops about halfway through this episode. We believe the discussion is well worth the listen regardless.]

Gravity Falls eventually returned, so too does your favorite GF rewatch podcast without curators. Horror author Tanesha Walker (featuring Berry) joins Mary and AJ in tackling a tone-shift in the series: the season 2 premiere, Scary-oke! Character cameos, zombie fight scenes, and harrowing tales about secret stashes, it's all here!

Mary and AJ take a short break between seasons - sorry, a shorts break - and Sarah Baggs and Michael Williams take a break from saving Christmas to cover the interstitial Gravity Falls shorts that aired to tide us over in the legendary year-long hiatus. I'm sure Santa will be fine until they get back. There's summer merriment to be had!

After all these years...finally, we've watched it all. "It" being season one. At long last, AJ learns the secret of the vending machine, the origin of Soos, and the absurd length of time between seasons one and two. And along for the ride is the show's supervising producer Rob Renzetti, here to impart his inside knowledge of the animation industry and the circumstances that necessitate the Owl Trowel.

They say never to meet your heroes, but I don't think it counts if you only meet one hero over Zoom. Mary and AJ finally welcome Gravity Falls fan and voice of Dipper Pines, Jason Ritter! The three of them share how their relationship to the show has evolved over time (or is currently evolving) and gush about the penultimate episode of season one. Oh, and AJ sees Bill Cipher for the first time. You know, in context. He's kind of everywhere now.

Kinda like Mary's cough, which she muted during the call but Zoom recorded anyway? What gives??

Content warning: This episode contains relevant discussions of CSAM, domestic abuse, homophobia, suicide, and eating disorders.

Oh boy. We've done it this time. I mean, we have really done it this time. Not only is this not an episode of Gravity Falls, it doesn't even involve animation in any form. I don't even have a quippy description for it. The 10th anniversary of the Gravity Falls finale is next week and here we have the season 4 Christmas episode of Glee. Who do we think we are, Sarah Baggs and/or Michael Williams?

Don't worry. It may take the rest of our natural lives, but we will finish Gravity Falls. In the meantime, enjoy this seasonally inappropriate discussion about what is probably the worst season of Glee. The actual subject of our podcast will seem even better by comparison!

Mary has finally embraced her culture, and AJ is out for some long-awaited revenge. Of course, he's not the ultimate life form, so the revenge will have to be more embarrassing than deadly. Have Mary's weeks of outrunning GUN trucks and collecting Chaos Emeralds prepared her for this very special Sonic episode? Gotta pod fast!

We're back! Our first newly-recorded episode in literal years, and what better way to come back than with our favorite potentially delicious pig friend! Mary and AJ dive into not a pain hole and ask, who's responsible for cleaning after a kid who peed himself, is Old Man McGucket God, how many scales does it take to draw a pterodactyl with too many muscles? Also, how is Bobby Renzobbi doing? Really? He sent our fake ad to us but won't return any of my emails.

Before the Football Bowl even started, Mary and AJ discuss the intricacies of fandom with special guest Abby Kirby. They cover how different the Gravity Falls Tumblr tag was versus other shows of the time, Abby's work in studying fandom, and how a hat can mean so much more than the blue tree on it, on this edition of the Into the Falls Bonus Features Moment!

BroZone be damned, the hottest teen heartthrobs in town are Sev'ral Times in today's Into the Falls! First, witness the greatest idea Mary's come up with for a podcast pantry skit, the experimental horror nightmare *NSYNCamarink! Then learn how a boy band cloned from the same person can still have "the funny one," "the bad boy," etc., Robbie's big Mordecai moment, Stan off to the side with his popcorn, and revel in the disappointment that AJ has never seen your favorite childhood TV show. 2013!
