Pete Peppers is here to discuss Foundation Season 2 with Jim and A.Ron! With the latest season all wrapped up, the three discuss the highs, lows, and twists of the story so far. They’ll combine their personal observations and opinions along with intel from David Goyer himself. Join in as Pete, Jim, and A.Ron put a bow on Season 2 of Foundation.
Is Jojen a good interpreter of dreams? And what’s the deal with medieval werewolves? Phil Haberkern is back to talk about all this and more. Then Pádraig MacCarron considers whether fighting with a net is chivalrous.
Much to the surprise of Jim and A.Ron, Grand Admiral Thrawn appears! A Star Wars show isn’t making us wait multiple seasons to see the character they’ve been teasing??!? This episode dives deeper into Filoni-created Star Wars lore (Wookiepedia has been a helpful source). What is Baylan’s ultimate goal? How do the Witches fit into the future? With only two episodes left, does Filoni have a satisfying conclusion for us?
Not much plot, just vibes. Richard Linklater gives us a look at the teenage years with doses of refreshing honesty, but keep in mind, this movie is still plenty problematic. But maybe that’s the point? Matthew McConaughey, Parker Posey, and Ben Affleck star in this time capsule of the teenage years. Jim and A.Ron reflect on the cultural shifts between now and the setting of Dazed and Confused.
It’s a return to form for a Walking Dead show, meaning it got worse. We’re back to the non-sequiturs and nonsense of TWD. You’ll get to see Daryl release a necessary mule and run from a handful of zombies. When Daryl isn’t acting out of character, we get to see more backstory for Isabelle and Laurent.
Dr. Iain MacInnis considers historical analogues to Jon Snow.
Season 2 is in the books and David S. Goyer is back to talk about it. As fans of the show, A.Ron and Jim have some burning questions that need answering. When did the Spacers make a deal with Hober? What was up with those lens effects? Is the Mule a Thespin? Though the future of Hollywood seems uncertain, Goyer is confident in the future plot developments of Season 3.

It’s the season finale, baby! Is the finale tricksy and false, or is it a well woven tapestry that brings together the threads of season 2?

Dr. Jana Matthews suggests a historical analogue for Brienne of Tarth.
