Following The Leftovers - 201 – Axis Mundi

We’ve got our bags backed and we’ve boarded the green park service buses en route to Jarden, Texas, to take in the sights of the season two premiere of “The Leftoves”, “Axis Mundi”. Pre-historic births, John C. Riley camping on a column, the slaughter of goats, bird resurrection, firemen burning down houses, shocking “Perfect Stranger” and “Family Matters” tie ins… this episode met and exceeded our weirdness expectations and left us wanting more. And it wouldn’t be a “The Leftovers” podcast with out some bark at the moon crazy theories and speculation, some from us, some from you the fellow fan. Please, enjoy!

Fear The Watching Dead - 106 – The Good Man

Jim and A.Ron have a lot of thoughts about the final episode and first season of “Fear the Walking Dead” as a whole. Is episode 106, “The Good Man”, in fact, “A Good Episode?” Not really. We delve into the numerous problems of Handsome Soldier, Liza’s choice, hell even Tuxedo Man’s sheer coolness can’t spare him from our savage take on the series. It’s like we unleash 2000 walkers onto the writer’s room of Fear the Walking Dead. The air evac squad comes mid-way through podcast to bail them out, but then sees the mailbag, and nopes out of there. Abandon all hope, ye who listen.

Bald Move Pulp - Daredevil (2015)

Special thanks to Robert Packnett who commissioned us to take on Netflix’s 2015 series, “Daredevil”, with a particular emphasis on the episodes “Cut Man” and “Shadows in the Glass”. This was a particularly shrewd selection, as they both deal with the duality of the main hero and villain of the series, and their histories, similarities, strengths, and weaknesses. “Daredevil” is a series that is so much better than it has any right to be, and it’s a magical combination of the writing, direction, and incredible charisma of the main cast that holds it all together and keeps it on track, making it even greater than the sum of it’s parts.

Bald Move Pulp - The Martian (2015)

Jim and A.Ron saw Ridley Scott’s “The Martian” last night, starring Matt Damon, and have a lot to say about it. Note, the first part of the podcast is spoiler free, but then when we say we’re about to spoil things, that’s your cue to get out while the getting is good. Along the way, we talk about the trailers we saw for The Revenant, The Big Short, Joy, and Concussion.
