Subscriber-only episode A purity test gone awry has the whole school in a tizzy bigger than the recent poor girl ordering Chinese food incident. We meet like 9000 new characters but don't even see some of the main ones. Not sure who we should be more afraid of: Able Koontz, or Daddy Mars at 6:00am. And man, was Photoshop was loud in 2004! Warning, …

Subscriber-only episode Well, well, well, yet another new white boy of the week gets into a bit of a pickle involving a Piñata and an angry gym rat. The level of quality that printers are able to achieve varies greatly throughout the episode. The counters in the Mars kitchen were clearly made by the same people who made the Stars Hollow snowmen. An…

Subscriber-only episode The writers of this show certainly have an interesting perspective on daddy/daughter relationships and how close adolescent siblings are. Is that video tribute to the dead girl scene weird, or are we just old? We predict a future romance we think was obvs from the begins. And Bryan doesn't seem to know the difference between…

Subscriber-only episode There are quite a few stories going on simultaneously this week, but Weevil and that teacher, who's in the credits for some reason, got the week off.

Subscriber-only episode White boys are poppin' up like prairie dogs, and nearly start a race war. There seems to be less sexual tension between Veronica and her dad this week, but she's still got pretty questionable taste in men. We've learned a few names! Well... not the new guy.

Firefly Episode 2 "The Train Job"/Bunheads Episode 2 "For Fanny" Lots of similarities this week including one very obvious one.

Remember Full House? Remember how wholesome and family-friendly it was? Remember Aunt Becky? She was married to Uncle Jesse.

We pitch some ideas fo…

Well friends, we've reached the end of the Buffy Season 8 comics. They started off a little weird, then got so much weirder and more pornographic than we ever could have imagined. Buffy's straight-up a super hero now, though we're still not sure we understand why. You'll be happy to know, Giles' horses are still in the picture, though who has them …

We did it! We finished all of Gilmore Girls and recorded our longest episode ever! Probably our longest intro ever too, due to some neighbor drama and lingering thoughts about bidets. For as many issues as the revival series has, we really enjoyed this episode with its barrage of old characters and tear-jerking scenes. We do our best to figure out …

Originally given as a lecture at the Anti-Japanese Military and Political College in Yenan, and later developed into an essay, On Practice was published in 1937 in order to expose the subjectivist errors of dogmatism and empiricism within the Chinese Communist Party. Considered a classic, must-read text in Marxist circles today, it is unfortunate t…

Welp, things certainly haven't gotten less weird in the Buffy comics since we last chatted. We get appearances by plenty of old friends from the TV show and get introduced to vampy cats! You know, vampy cats... adorable, little, women-hating terror creatures. Harmony gets her own reality show, which somehow alters the status quo of the entire world…

The 1990's were filled with high profile criminal trials for some of the most famous entertainers in the world. Michael Jackson and OJ Simpson headlined a list of extremely public trials, mostly centered in California. One case which seems to be getting lost amidst this glut of criminal prosecutions is the murder charge brought against a young up-a…

We're taking a break from our regularly-scheduled content to tell you about our travels! First, we share our experience hosting the Gilmore Girls cast panel, including which cast member has an alter ego. Then we move on to Italy, where we found bidets quite overwhelming. Florence had both the best and worst food, including sandwiches made by sloths…

Oh Summer... you were definitely weird and bad at times, but we still had fun. Lorelai volunteers to watch the first draft of Taylor's musical, for which she definitely had some notes, and so do we! Rory volunteers for a job that most definitely should pay. However, money rules tend to defy logic in Rory's orbit. Emily slept iiin!? She's also datin…

Nearly every day we see a new headline about a labor union in the news. From the recent Writers Guild agreement to the ongoing United Auto Workers strike and the numerous health care walk outs; labor unions are once again changing the game in the workplace. Why the influx in strikes in the labor movement? What does this mean for the future of labor…

Okay, so things definitely got a bit weirder in this chunk of comics. We've got tree people; we've got a fish man; we've got a real sexy snake lady, and boy, does Dawn get up to some stuff. Our heroes travel the globe, and reunite with a very famous vampire from Season 5. Buffy travels through time to future New York City, where she's meets someone…

Earlier this year, the United States Supreme Court handed down a landmark decision in the voting rights case of Allen v Milligan. To the surprise of voting rights advocates across the country, the Court decided that the Alabama’s redistricting plan violates Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act. Just today, the Supreme Court reaffirmed the decision, h…

It's Wookie week! Rory still can't figure out her life, and Lorelai's is maybe starting to crumble a bit as well. We get to see a lot of old familiar faces in this episode, as well as one we've never seen. We take a trip back to Chilton where we get a whole lotta Headmaster, and liiiittle bit of the side of fake Tristan's face. It's hard to tell wh…

Hello again friends and family, Bucking a recent trend of recent cases, today we head back roughly 140 years to Chicago in the 1880s. This is another case where a person or group's personal ideology was put on trial instead of the men and their individual actions themselves. It's a cautionary tale on what our justice system could become if we aren'…

This is my final Podcast, and the shortest one — just my last thoughts after decades of study. The Hiss-Chambers Case will live on because it is important post-WWII American history, and also a great yarn, a feast for trial lawyers, and an example of the endless fight between totalitarianism and freedom, between shiny lies and messy reality. I hope…

Multipolarity has been a popular term on the US Left in the past few years. What is it? Why is it becoming popular, particularly within the US Left? This episode breaks down the actual meaning of Multipolarity and its revisionist definition, and we show how multipolarity is actually not anti-imperialism. This was a collaborative production with the…

Whittaker Chambers This Podcast, the second to last, is the longest one. The Hiss-Chambers Case did not die. Many new facts were discovered, the majority of them harmful to Hiss, starting in the 1970s. The Freedom of Information Act led the US government (after a lawsuit) to produce about 40,000 pages of paper, mostly from the FBI. Hiss made the fi…

We've got some notes, per ushe, but we're really digging the comics so far! ...despite the super creepy, possibly problematic, underground slime monster. Buffy's back with a full slayer army, a big ole slayer budget, and big ole lil sis. The big bad seems to be a Marvel villain with a hairy chest and a secret identity... fer NOW! We get a lot of fu…

As Chambers wrote to his friend Bill Buckley, most of us think the story of Oedipus ends when he learns he married his own mother and puts his eyes out. In fact, however, Oedipus lived for years afterwards. After the trials, Chambers lived for 10 years and Hiss for 45. Neither escaped The Case, nor did their wives and children. (Add this, by the wa…

As you may have heard, we're going to be doing some traveling coming up. We're heading to Maine for the Gilmore Girls Fan Festival. One of use has a work trip, and we've finally booked our trip to Italy!

Several people have told me that, of my 38 episodes, this is their favorite. See if you agree. It is all about the question Hiss could never answer: how, if Hiss is innocent, did the 64 Typed Spy Documents get typed on his home typewriter. You may recall that Hiss first told The Grand Jury that Chambers broke into his house in 1938 and typed them o…
