The Streaming Heap episodes:

December 08, 2022 26 - Andor, Season 1 Finale
Lin and Eric get all riled up by the spirit of rebellion as they discuss the Andor finale. They discuss political philosophy, remark on the idiocy of the jedi mentality, gush over how well Andor sticks the landing, consider what season two might have in store, and argue over whether Luthen is a jedi. They also talk about H.H. Holmes: the video game, Thunderbolt Harrison Ford, and the need for a certain director to just shut up.

November 26, 2022 25 - Andor, ep. 11
Eric and Lin discuss the penultimate episode of the best Star Wars television series to date and make a bunch of predictions for the finale that have already been proven wrong. They also give James Gunn and Peter Safran some unsolicited advice on what to do with DC Film Studios. Meanwhile, Lin talks about Tales of the Jedi and See How They Run, and we find out what exactly he wants to be doing with Andy Serkis.

November 21, 2022 24 - Andor, eps. 8-10
In the second part of their extended discussion of the middle episodes of Andor, Lin and Eric discuss Mon Mothma's political side and maybe the side she shows in the bedroom, the fledgling love between an incel lunatic and a sadistic torturer, how this whole show is like a superhero origin story, that glorious speech (you know the one), and why space prison is just the worst.

November 17, 2022 23 - Andor, eps. 4-7
Eric returns from infirmity so that he and Lin can continue their discussion of Andor. They started out talking about seven episodes, but when a conversation crosses the four hour mark, this exhausted editor needs to cut it in half. Also, Eric talks about Netflix's The Watcher, and Lin goes on for quite a bit about some Gundam nonsense, in between his love of recent Twitter drama.

With the enthusiasm of two guys who don't care what you think of The Last Jedi, Lin and Eric discuss the first three episodes of Andor, the latest (and possibly greatest) original Star Wars offering on Disney Plus. But first, they talk about a gay romantic comedy, namely the upcoming Deadpool 3 with Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman.

October 03, 2022 19 - The Umbrella Academy, Season 3
Lin and Eric catch up on a series they missed talking about when it first aired, but first Eric talks about what video game you should play on dates and Lin discusses how he won't call anything "Cyberpunk" unless it is anti-capitalist propaganda.
NOTE: Apologies for the occasional dropped word here and there. I have no idea what happened during the recording, but I'm going to assume it had to do with a poor Internet connection, one that I seem to have resolved since this episode.
