It is time for our Agents to get into the inspiration for our Pirates series: Season 1 of Our Flag Means Death. This romantic comic pirate series has inspired a lot of feelings from our Agents - not just for our lead characters: Stede Bonnet (Rhys Darby) and Black Beard (Taika Watiki) but for the entire crew of misfit pirates. We are excited to bring you on board for this mission while we wait for Season 2 of this adventure on the sea. - Annette Wierstra with Kelly Guimont, Quinn Rose and KatyBeth Schmid.

Is Rupert really Emperor Palpatine to Nate’s Darth Vader? Is the bus driver secretly the hero of the show? And when will the inevitable Lego AFC Richmond stadium set be announced? - Jason Snell with Shannon Sudderth and James Thomson.
