The Podcast of Power: A She-Ra Companion Podcast

Gather around, dear listeners, as we discuss the tales of mystery and mischief one can only find in Gravity Falls... As voted on by our lovely patrons, we're headed to Oregon to investigate the adventures of the Pines family and the secrets they begin to uncover beneath the surface of the already pretty abnormal town the twins find themselves spending the summer in. Come along as we try and figure out whether or not this show holds up after... sorry HOW long ago did this come out?!

Welcome back aboard the Infinity Train, dear listeners! As voted on by our lovely patrons we are once again riding the rails into Book 3: The Cult of the Conductor, a season of television that contains a LOT more murder than we expected.

 

Come brave this emotional whiplash machine with us as Grace and Simon, the leaders of the rowdy Apex, are forced to confront their own lack of empathy and grow as people. Unfortunately for them, these two grow in very opposite directions. Infinity Train Book 3 asks a very important question: what happens when the machine designed to force character growth makes you come out worse? Let's find out.

Welcome, dear listeners, to the inaugural episode of Talk Cycles! A spiritual successor to our time in the Podcast of Power, where we take a monthly meander through contemporary animation. This week, we find ourselves once again navigating the labyrinthine Infinity Train in Book 2: Cracked Reflection.

It's certainly been a while since you heard from us, hasn't it? Well don't worry, we're back from our long hiatus with some big plans! Patreon overhauls, Radio Free Hydaelyn news, and a brand new show that might appeal to our Podcast of Power fans. So keep an eye out for future updates as we begin our new phase of content.

Welcome back, dear listeners, for one last trip 'round the old Podcast of Power. Nearly a full year since its recording, the conclusion of our actual play podcast of She-Ra inspired tabletop game For The Honor is here and ready to be enjoyed by all.

Featuring special guests Cass (@whatiscosplay) and Jordan (@dori_mingu) from the Strangers Fiction podcast, we jump into the exciting finale of our desert spaceship adventure. Goo pods, angry robotic stewards, First Ones- I mean Precursor memory technology trips, and a smouldering rivalry perhaps blooming into something more... this episode's got it all, and we're very proud of it.

Special thanks to all of our listeners and patrons, past and present, we're so deeply grateful to have gone on this podcast adventure with you all. Despite the trials and tribulations from life that have surrounded this production, we loved it dearly, and we hope that all of you will join us on our adventures into Final Fantasy 14 over at Radio Free Hydaelyn (@HydaelynRadio)!

Another file from the lost episodes folder, here's the minisode we recorded a while ago on a few bits and pieces of apocryphal canon surrounding Save the Cat, including (most notably) Noelle's... creator fiction? Deleted scenes? Can't really call it fanfic when the showrunner is writing it now can you. Either way, boy it's good, and we get right down into the weeds of it here for about a solid hour, along with a few other assorted goodies. Enjoy!If you need a link to that fic, by the way, it's called Don't Go (linked here).

Hello dear listeners! It's been a while, but finally rolling out is the bonus content we've had in the works for a few months, starting here with the first part of our actual play podcast of the She-Ra inspired tabletop game For The Honor!

 

With special guests Cass (@whatiscosplay) and Jordan (@dori_mingu) from the Strangers Fiction podcast, we embark on a tabletop adventure of wild proportions. There are mysterious pyramids, robots and sneeple (snake people), horrible man-spiders, and a smouldering rivalry between old friends that definitely doesn't hint towards anything more don't worry about it. Enjoy!

It's after the war, and we're all here to pop some bottles and send off the show with a bang as both of us open up the depths of the Email Pit. We've got some final pieces of juicy analysis, some good laughs, and a lot of reflection on the past year and a half of doing this show for all you lovely listeners out there. Thank you all so much for accompanying us on this journey, and we hope to see you all in the future in our next project, Radio Free Hydaelyn (@HydaelynRadio)!

 

Special thanks for our very special intro for this very special episode, "After the War", composed and performed by Reinaeiry (@Reinaeiry)!

It's time.

 

Live in studio together for the first time, we have gathered our powers and abilities for this, S5E12 & 13, 'Heart Part 1 & 2', the ultimate episodes of the show that put us on this journey in the first place. Etheria is in dire straits, all hope seems lost, and even this episode itself seemed as if it may never surface... but the intro to the show holds true. We all really did win in the end, and our titular characters finally get to share their ultimate moment. (Bonus game for the viewers at home: see if you can catch all the moments where I had to choke back tears!)

I hope you like ominous flaming hallways of destiny because those dang wizards are at it again. We're in the penultimate episode of the show, S5E11 'Failsafe', in which shadow Weaver is back in peak form, Glimmer gets to formally re-meet her dad, Catra makes a very serious decision, and Adora fully accepts her destiny. The question remains, though: should she?
