In a strange, unexpected sequel to their Very Special Episode, this week the Waffles take a closer look at the Very Special Issues of popular comic books. Listen as Superman jr. and Batman jr. defeat the evils of feminism, Superman combats illegal immigration, Green Arrow takes a deeply troubling stance on drug addiction, and Spider-Man tackles the dangers of teen pregnancy. All this and more in a Very Special Issue of the Geeky Waffle.

With the Zack Snyder cut of the Justice League finally released. Candace and Arezou discuss what other movies they would like to see get similar treatment. Their picks include alternate cuts of classic comedies, Solo as envisioned by the original directors, and shockingly Arezou demands that a certain final installment in a space franchise get remade immediately.

That’s right. It’s finally time. Arezou is taking over the show to talk, what else, Reylo. 

Ok technically, enemies to lovers. She is joined by Candace and their EtL loving friend Maggie to talk what makes good Enemies to Lovers, what definitely doesn’t count as Enemies to Lovers, and what the future holds for this, the finest of ship dynamics (can you tell Arezou wrote this?)

Is Wanda Maximoff a villain? Short answer: no. Long answer: definitely no, it’s called WandaVision, not WandaVillain.

Candace and Arezou dive into what makes a villain, why Wanda doesn’t count, and why we need to stop trying to persecute fictional characters for war crimes at the drop of a hat. 

His Royal Highness, Christopher Rupert Windemere Vlad- you know what, forget it. The Prince is giving an interview! 

This week, in honor of Rodgers and Hammerstein’s Cinderella hitting Disney+, Candace, Vanessa and Arezou are joined by a very special guest, Prince Charming himself Paolo Montalban to talk about all things Broadway, Cinderella, and the future of theatre.

Tonight, on a Very Special Episode, the Waffles unpack the collective childhood trauma and weirdness that was...the Very Special Episode. From the silly - beer that turns you into monsters - to the differences between Canadian and American PSAs, to topics that were way too serious to be properly addressed in 22 minutes, they dig into the whys of this extremely distinct television phenomenon. 

We're discussing brilliant movies that we just can't watch again.

It’s hard to resist a good rom-com. Who cares if the tropes are things we’ve seen a hundred times before. The heroes have the same stereotypical jobs. Everyone is very pretty. Someone’s fiancee gets dumped in favor of the person they met two day ago...wait. Maybe not all the tropes are so great after all.

Today, the Waffles discuss how the genre has changed, which tropes are still overused, and the kinds of rom-coms they want to see in the future

No one ever accused movies and TV of being real life - but that doesn’t mean we didn’t believe way too many of the things we were seeing. We thought high school was the be-all-end-all and that you could rent a fabulous apartment on a part-time salary. We thought court cases would be interesting and that forensic labs did fast turnarounds. We actually believed the science in Jurassic Park. 

This week, Candace, Vanessa and Arezou dive into the wildly inaccurate things they believed as kids, the things they thought would be a bigger problem in real life, and perhaps even uncover some horrific repressed memories along the way.

For such a short episode, Candace sure swears a lot this week. Why? Because she is joined by Vanessa and Arezou to discuss the fictional moments that made them ugly cry. From the horrors of British sci-fi classics, to the tragedy of classic cinema, to Ben Solo (again!), the Waffles try to figure out why these moments affect us so much.
