In this week's episode, we're diving head-first into our latest hyper-fixations. River explores the magic systems in anime gems like "Mushoku Tensei" and "I Reincarnated as the Seventh Son," while Ama reminisces about McDonald's retro dips and her latest Bravo obsession, "Southern Charm."

But for the majority of this episode, we discuss and analyze the latest season of "The Bear" with a hypercritical lens, analyzing its take on toxic restaurant culture, character arcs, and narrative strengths. We also chat about how we'd like to see the show wrap up.
