The Banter Lodge

We conduct a conclusive investigation of every single Season 7 promotional image, leading to a shocking cancellation. It's not weird: it's journalism.

A winter lodge is never late, everyone else is simply early. Catch up on the news as Sara pays for a Netflix account, Max discovers the most diabolical misspelling of Kpp'Ar, and no one goes to New York Comic Con. Best. Episode. Yet.

Chekhov's gun: OUT. Max's dog: IN. We discuss hearts of cinder, Leola's past, and unreliable narrators in Part 2 of our Season 6 recap.

Boone Williams, the voice of Astrid, answers your questions, shares behind-the-scenes stories, and reveals the rare Xadian artifact she would use to eat the candy pearl.

Watch your mages, watch your back, and watch out for hungry Glow Toads! We can't help but relate to Bait as we feast upon the release of new episodes in Part 1 of our Season 6 recap.

Join us on the couch for the midnight release of Season 6! Experience our live reactions in the five minutes after we view each episode for the first time. When the sun rises, we will die... or not? Snacks not included.

Descend into the icy depths of our Season 6 prediction iceberg. Why will Aaravos refuse to leave prison? What's wrong with the Nova Blade? Who's giving birth? In this episode, we rank our predictions from most likely to most radical.

We attempt to bake the iconic Jelly Tart recipe, live from the Lodge kitchen! Sara stands (literally) behind spicy jam, Max competes for Jelly Tart Clout™, and we push the boundaries of science to create our own dragon-sized Mega-Tart.

We rank every Rayllum Moment™ ever. Discover the linchpin that holds Rayllum together, what dark magic smells like, and the first ever Law of the Lodge.
