Bonus Episode: Introducing Wax Episodic

Hi, Jason here. This is a special bonus episode reposted from my new podcast, Wax Episodic, where I cover top-tier, story-rich TV shows one season at a time with different co-hosts.

We’re kicking things off with Alien: Earth, and I wanted to share the first episode here so you can check it out. If you like it, please consider subscribing to Wax Episodic — it’s my new podcast home, and you can find it at ⁠waxepisodic.com⁠. 

PS If you appreciate how Yellowjackets doesn’t pull any punches — intense, unsettling, and sometimes darkly funny — you might vibe with Alien: Earth, which brings that same no-holds-barred energy to the sci-fi horror space.

Alien: Earth S1E1&2: “Neverland” & “Mr. October”

The wait is over — Alien: Earth has landed, and Noah Hawley’s first two episodes deliver everything we hoped for: suspense, grotesque alien terrors, strange new lifeforms, and a sharp look at how unchecked corporate ambition could shape our future — in a series that (at least so far) feels both classic and brand new. Join Jason, Randy, and Kara as we dig into “Neverland” and “Mr. October.”

Hey we thought we’d drop in and do an episode since it’s been awhile. We’re finally getting around to covering the 2023 survival drama Society of the Snow about the Uruguayan rugby team that crashed in the Andes back in 1972 (and we’re thrilled to have Kasi and Maria joining us to talk about it). We’ll just say, it’s an incredible movie, and we think any YJ fan is going to love it - so if you haven’t seen it, we recommend you watch it now (it’s on Netflix) and then come back and check out the podcast. Buzz buzz buzz!

We’ll be back with another episode at some point. In the mean time, if you’d like to write in and connect:

Wow, that was unexpected. I don’t want to give too much away because sometimes people read the show notes before watching the episode and then get mad at us for spoiling things, but I can’t believe Travis was the Antler Queen!!!!
