The Incomparable Superfeed

That escalated quickly! It’s time to discuss the action-packed penultimate episode of the penultimate season of “For All Makind.” The M-6’s desire to take back control of Happy Valley has some serious, violent consequences. Alex proves to be a whiz when it comes to duct tape. And meanwhile, on Titan, there’s some navigating, scanning, and maybe an amazing discovery or perhaps a catastrophic accident? It’s “For All Mankind,” it could really be either one.

Hosts Dan Moren and Jason Snell.

There’s a new new quarterback in town, and Matt Saracen isn’t thrilled. But Buddy is. Coach is throwing a party, or really, asking Tami to do so… with only two days to plan it. And Jason Street is in denial. Where are we? Square in the middle of Sorkinville, USA: Dillon, Texas.

Hosts Lex Friedman and Brian Warren.

Read along with our latest ep to find out!

Hello fellow nerds! We’re back after a short hiatus and super excited to talk Nine Inch Nails (mostly Trent Reznor), Gallifrey One, the Olympics and My Melody. We even dabble a little in sports psychology. It’s a strange combination, but we think it works.
