Pop Culture Role Call

Hello and welcome to The Magicians season 5 episode 1! Yep, Quentin is still dead...no shenanigans. So what is Brian going to do now? Come find out. Meanwhile, Penny (begrudgingly) takes a job teaching young travelers at the newly reopened Brakebills University. Margo and Elliot are back in Fillory trying to piece together the events leading up to the 300 year time jump and the rise of the Dark King. Thanks for listening!

Hello and welcome to The Magicians season 4 wrap-up! Thank you everyone for listening along and a special thank you to everyone who submitted questions. We talk favorite episodes, what to do with Brian now that Quentin is (supposedly) very dead, and of course, we speculate wildly about season 5.

Hello and welcome to The Magicians season 4 episode 13! This week, we say goodbye to season 4, but more importantly, we say goodbye to a dear friend. The plus side? Elliot is back, the brother+sister monster demon things are handled and magic appears to be back on the menu. We were one bad break away from a perfectly executed plan. Welp, onward and upward. Thanks for listening!

Hello and welcome to The Magicians season 4 episode 12. This week, Quentin and Alice finally have "that talk"...you know the one. Meanwhile, Margo's definitely NOT boyfriend Josh is turned into a Werefish after touching some magic nonsense and Monster Elliot finally gets his Monster Sister back! Not cute. Very dangerous. Thanks for listening.

Hello and welcome to The Magicians season 4 epiosde 11! This week, Quentin hops back in time to visit Brakebills South from season 1 in hopes of unlocking the secrets behind a particularly important spell. Meanwhile, Penny, Margo and friends free a librarian trapped in an ancient text, only to be hit with a generational lore dump. But can any of this actually stop the monster? Or, maybe, help it? Thanks for listening!

Hello and welcome to The Magicians season 4 episode 10! This week, Margot goes on her own little drug induced musical side-quest out in the desert. Turns out, licking random reptiles can really cause things to spiral quite quickly. Meanwhile, Penny and Quentin and crew finally track down the monster's final target in hopes of getting ahead of a potential world ending afair. Unfortunately, he is a bit of an un-serious idiot...so maybe we have a plan B? Thanks for listening!

Hello and welcome the The Magicians season 4 episode 9! This week, Margo is deposed with a teargul hug rather than a dagger in the back. Count your blessings. Meanwhile, Penny helps Monster Elliot explore repressed memories of his violent past and we all just kind of hope that won't blow up in our faces. Thanks for listening!

Hello and welcome to The Magicians season 4 episode 8. This week, we really dig into the magical world of dragonic mating practices. Lots of...interesting lore implications and maybe even a salacious illustration or two. Meanwhile, Margo is out with Fen on her quest to save Fillory, but Fen might need some advice regarding (metaphorical) snak eoil salesmen. Thanks for listening!

Hello and welcome to The Magicians season 4 episode 7! This week...uhh. Fen probably goes on a quest. It's probably a really fun quest and Josh maybe even goes with her. Who knows. Not us! Thanks for listening!

Hello and welcome to The Magicians season 4 episode 6! This week, Penny goes on a whirlwind adventure through time and space after his park bench abduction at the end of last episode. For the eagel-eyed viewer, you might even catch sight of an old (very) familiar face. Meanwhile, Margo is playing at politics in Fillory while trying her best not to let grief get the better of her, which doesn't seem to be super successful on either front. Thanks for listening!
