- IT: Welcome to Derry S1E1 "The Pilot"
It’s time for IT. To us this first episode felt more like a classic ‘80s-style horror movie as a TV series than anything we’ve seen before, which is really fun! Join Shawn and Jason to talk it out.

1 hr 16 min - Fallout S1E4 "The Ghouls"
Between Steph’s seduction of Chet after dressing him in her dead husband’s clothes, and feral ghouls that are basically rage virus zombies, and JELL-O pie, we were smiling ear-to-ear at this week’s episode. Join Kasi, Kara, and Jason as we talk it out, with some bonus Greek myth comparisons from Kara to boot.

1 hr 46 min - Fallout S1E2 "The Target"
This episode was stuffed to the gills with cool s#%t — gory action, irradiated mutant animals, the most adorable dog ever, and freakin' Michael “Ben Linus” Emerson — as Lucy explored the surface world and Maximus realized his dream of playing knight. Join Jason and Kasi as we talk it out!

1 hr 32 min - Fallout S1E1 "The End"
Here we go: Fallout! This retro-futuristic post-apocalyptic extravaganza is a collision of humor and terror, charm and gore, propriety and depravity, mystery and adventure, and so much more. It’s smartly written, extravagantly produced, and we think the casting is perfect, with Ella Purnell as our uber-plucky hero, and Walton Goggins as our sassy, ghoulish foil.
I’m joined by Kasi and Wendy to talk out this first episode, which manages to be entertaining while dropping a ton of detail about this world. Join us as we talk it out!

1 hr 18 min - Alien: Earth S1E8 "The Real Monsters"
It wasn’t as conclusive a season finale as we maybe wanted, but it was chock full of Alien: Earth greatness, and Jason, Randy, and Kara had a blast getting into all the details.
Thank you to all you guys who watched and listened along with us. It was a great time!

2 hr 19 min - Alien: Earth S1E4 "Observation"
A quieter episode, but filled with fascinating angles to think about and explore, entertaining character dynamics, and most of all, rising tension on all fronts. This thing is clearly headed towards a major clusterf&@ck... Kara and Jason are happy to be joined this ep by Alien aficionado Archmaester Renny!
