The Incomparable Superfeed

…otherwise known as “The first week of hockey, baby!” Deb and Erika talk about the good (So. Many. Goals.), the bad (why you have to hurt us like that Edmonton?) and the ugly (NHLPA/NHLShyam Das - you are ON NOTICE. You too, Matheson). Sure, there have been some bumps in the road but it’s early days, kids. Who knows what next week will bring? In this episode’s “What the Puck?” we’re back on our goalie game - this time breaking down the evolution of goalie equipment. And finally, in a fuzzy, orange, terrifyingly ridiculous hockey tidbit, Deb wants to love Gritty with her whole heart. Sadly, due to some off-ice issues she has to deduct a few character points, dropping him firmly into the “problematic fave” league for the time being. We believe in your development, Gritty. We’re pulling for you! Have a question, comment, huzzah? Drop us a tweet or email us at [email protected]! - Host Erika Ensign and Deborah Stanish.

A heartwrenching episode on so many levels. If it weren’t for Felix posing as a detective from Scotland Yard, complete with deerstalker hat, there’d be nothing to smile at. Get out your handkerchiefs.

Shannon Sudderth joins Jason to discuss the first planetary trip for the Doctor’s new crew, featuring shout-outs to past eras, a restatement of the Doctor’s philosophies about brains and bullets, the hint of a story arc, and a delightful reunion with a wheezing blue old friend with a new look. - Host Jason Snell with Shannon Sudderth.

Two years ago we drank beer on a podcast and talked about it, and wouldn’t you know it, we’re back for more beer! The Incomparable’s Oktoberfest returns with five polarizing beers chosen by listener (and Almanac Brewing co-founder) Jesse Friedman and mailed to all of our houses. We open them and drink them on air—in stereo, just like the flavor of a hazy IPA! Will we finally understand why people line up to drink Pliny the Elder? Who put coconut in our stout again? Why does Dan keep trying to ruin the podcast? Will the podcast get progressively sillier as we drink beer? The answer to that last one is “yes.” - Host Jason Snell with Steve Lutz, Marco Arment, Jesse Friedman, Dan Moren, Brian Hamilton, Allison Truj, Kathy Campbell and Lauren Snell.

Highlights: Stephen Schwartz, the book was (not) better, shallow layers, down with the patriarchy, Star Trek, Frozen, don’t say that about my daughter, dream casting. - Host Quinn Rose with Anne Rose.

The new Good Place episode is out and Team Cockroach reactions are mixed: can the writers get us there already? Walk through the inter-dimensional door, but be careful where you step, because season 3 has some surprises up its sleeve. - Host Andrew Pontious with Rachel Addleman, Javier Matusevich and Sarah Gardner.

The Vulcan Hello podcast returns with a dissection of the first of four “short films”—didn’t we used to call these Webisodes?—running up to second season of “Star Trek: Discovery.” In “Runaway,” Tilly—we love Tilly!—discovers a mysterious and dangerous stowaway alien monster that might actually just be a grumpy teenager. Also we share our reactions to the new season 2 “Discovery” trailer, featuring hunky Spock! Deal with it, people. - Host Scott McNulty with Jason Snell.

Tiff and Mikah cringe their way through “Gay Witch Hunt.” This episode of “The Office” aired on September 21, 2006. - Host Tiffany Arment and Mikah Sargent.

There’s a library in Seyvoth Manor, once packed with books entertaining and informative. Now it lies in ruins, but a few magical books remain, with treasures and terrors in equal measure for those who are brave or foolish enough to explore. Like Fluffy, he’s plenty foolish enough. - Host Dan Moren and Tony Sindelar with Monty Ashley, Annette Wierstra, Steve Lutz, Mikah Sargent and Jane Ritt.
