Making your way in the avatar world today takes everything you got. Taking a break from all your worries sure would help a lot. It's time to stop the plot and take a shot. It's filler time baby. Also, everyone's favorite boomer aunt, Lin Beifong gets a terrible backstory. Let's do it.

B2 E15 Tales of Ba Sing Se

B2 E16 Appa’s Lost Days

Hauntober? Hallowscream? Spooktacular? When did All Hallow's Eve become so...gibberish? And more importantly, how has this affected television programming and advertising? Is Halloween the most commercial holiday? Also, what's your costume supposed to be? All these questions and more will be answered...or will they?

Thanks to Logan for editing this one! Spoilers for various Halloween specials and movies. HAPPY HALLOWEEN

Look out! It's Korra book 3 and is Korra actually good now? But uh-oh, there might be some problematic titles referencing "Birth of a Nation" and comparing attacking spirit vines to racial integration? Oops. Meanwhile, we have a spectacular two-parter in Avatar with The Library and The Desert. Will we ever see Appa again?1?!?! Obviously yes, but you'll have to keep listening to find out what we think.

ATLA B2 E10 "The Library"

ATLA B2 E11 "The Desert"

Korra B3 E1 "A Breath of Fresh Air"

Korra B3 E2 “Rebirth of a nation”

Snopes gave this podcast 3 Pinocchios because of all the PUPPET TALK! We just finished Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance on Netflix and there's some disagreement. Does this prequel capture the "ESSENCE" of the original? Obviously, spoilers abound.

Tweet at us @talkingtropes to let us know what you think of puppets and Jim Henson movies.

Thanks to Logan for editing this one!

Korra gets BEEEEEEG. It's the SEASON FINALE of Korra and we have a big Kaiju fight...but why? Meanwhile Toph gets mad screentime and Zuko yells at a cloud.

It's her special day, and her rage can topple buildings. We're looking at the problematic trope of the mythic "Bridezilla," betrothed women who supernaturally destroy through their avarice for fancy dresses and ice sculptures. Can our plucky grooms survive?

Thanks to our editor, Logan for this one, fam.

Aang finds his earthbending teacher, Toph in a WWE Smackdown. Zuko re-enacts classic western "Shane," and Bumi re-enacts modern classic "Rambo: Last Blood." A good time is had by all, but with the Korra finale fast approaching, could this season actually get WORSE?
