Subject 9 is a pivotal episode of Fringe marking Peter’s return to the timeline… sort of. We are joined once again this week by the awesome Anna (not Torv) and our discussions touch upon some of the new developments about this timeline revealed in this episode such as different relationships between characters like Olivia and Nina and Walter and Nina (or Viper as you prefer), and we also discuss the incredible performance by the late Chadwick Boseman. Stay tuned for awesome feedback from feedbackers like Geoff (xforce11), Eric (or Eric from Pennsylvania as you prefer), Erin, ShelkyBean, and Patty from Canadia! Join us next time for our “Novation” discussion! If, like Anna, you would like to be a co-host on the show, sign up to co-host a season 4 episode with us! There are still a few episodes open!

Although we are discussing the Fringe episode “Alone in the World” this week on the podcast, we are not actually alone because we are joined by Hannah, our resident fungus expert!

We also share some great feedback from feedbackers like Geoff (xforce11, ShelkyBean, Vawn, Eric (or Eric from Pennsylvania as you prefer), and Anna (not Torv.)

We are joined by frequent feedback contributor ShelkyBean one night in April, discussing Fringe episode, "One Night in October" in which the Redverse asks for help from the Blueverse to help them stop a serial killer.

We also share some amazing feedback from frequent feedback contributors Geoff (xforce11), Eric (or Eric from Pennsylvania as you prefer), Anna (not Torv), and Patty from Canadia.

“For all intents and purposes, that was the day we died.” We pick right up where we left off at the end of 3.21 for the season 3 finale of Fringe and are joined by the great David Wu (who also has a Fringetastic surprise to share!) to discuss this emotionally devastating episode with a cliffhanger that will fundamentally change Fringe as we know it for the remainder of its run! We also share some great feedback (as always) from listeners like Geoff (xforce11), Drew, Eric (or Eric from Pennsylvania as you prefer), Anna (not Torv), and Patty from Canadia! With the third season now having come to a close, we will be taking a brief break but will be back for season 4 when we watch “Neither Here nor There” together on March 19th and then record our discussion on it on March 26th, so see you in season 4, cortexifans, and, if you’re interested, you can now sign up to co-host a season 4 episode with us!

We are joined by special guest Marianne this week as we discuss “The Last Sam Weiss,” the penultimate episode of both this three-episode arc and of the third season. We share what we love about this episode (especially the acting from various cast members as well as the great character development that we get with Walter) but also discuss our disappointment around the enigma that is the titular Sam Weiss not being fully explained, seeming to be a thread that was ultimately dismissed. We also hear some phenomenal feedback from listeners such as Geoff (xforce11), Eric (or Eric from Pennsylvania as you prefer), Anna (not Torv), Erin, and ShelkyBean! Next up is “The Day We Died,” the season 3 finale, when we will be joined by a very special guest! Speaking of being joined by people, you can now sign up to co-host a season 4 episode with us!

Happy 2025, cortexifans! Join us this week as we discuss the first third of what is essentially a three-part finale!

We also share some wonderful feedback from listeners like Geoff (xforce11), ShelkyBean, and Patty from Canadia! Next up is the penultimate episode of both this arc and this whole season, “The Last Sam Weiss,” when we will be joined by Marianne!

Let’s make some LSD! Join us this week as guest Damon is with us to discuss this special season 3 episode of Fringe! We nerd out over the animated portions of the episode, all of the Easter eggs, the complexity of the episode’s plot and premise, how a certain Broyles scene now hits us differently, and SO much more! We also, of course, hear from some of our wonderful listeners like Geoff (xforce11), Anna (not Torv), ShelkyBean, Michael, and Eric (or Eric from Pennsylvania as you prefer). By the way, speaking of Eric, join us next time when we cover what is essentially the first part of a three-part finale and will be joined by Eric!

We are discussing all things bloodlines (or at least baby blood samples) this week on the podcast as we finally return to the Redverse and see the birth of Henry. We are once again joined by the great Michael London of Fringe Connections to take on this episode, and we share our somewhat differing opinions regarding how this episode holds up after the timeline ends up being overwritten. We also get some wonderful feedback from Tony from New Zealand, Dan, Geoff (xforce11), Eric (or Eric from Pennsylvania as you prefer), ShelkyBean, and Patty from Canadia. Join us next time when we return back to the Blueverse for “Lysergic Acid Diethylamide,” the second… well… fringe episode of Fringe! (We will be joined again by Damon and will be live recording an hour later than our normal time.)

We hope that you will stowaway with us on the Fringe train as we discuss this unique episode of Fringe - unique in that Anna Torv is not playing Olivia Dunham or an Olivia Dunham alternate but rather the man behind the curtain himself - William Bell (or Bellivia or Spolive as you prefer). We also finally get to meet the Blueverse version of Lincoln Lee (or Special Agent Hottie as you prefer), and we discuss what we like and maybe don’t like as much on rewatch. You’ll also hear some great feedback as always from feedbackers like Geoff (xforce11), Eric (or Eric from Pennsylvania as you prefer), Anna (not Torv), Erin, and Patty from Canadia! Join us next time when we return to the Redverse and catch up with Foelivia’s pregnancy in “Bloodline”!
