Pluribus - S01E09 - Season Finale Reactions

David and Nichole discuss their reactions to the season finale, grappling with the episode's theological weight and the revealed nature of the plurbs. The conversation centers on the devastating cold open and they explore how Zosia's manipulation of Carol through mimicking Helen exposed the plurbs' ultimate goal: not communion but assimilation without consent. The episode crystallizes the show's deep engagement with questions of individuality versus collective, examining how the plurbs function as both Thanos-like philosophical antagonists and virus-like assimilation threats, while Carol emerges from her temptation in the wilderness ready to face reality with a nuclear failsafe. Note on Coverage This is our quick vibe check reaction episode recorded after the holidays. We'll return with John for a full analytical season wrap-up where we'll dive deeper into Episode 9 and discuss the season as a whole. Contact Us Questions or comments?

Pluribus - S01E08 - Charm Offensive

David and Nichole examine an episode bookended by Manusos's journey from Panama to the border, while Carol navigates the blurring lines of manipulation with Zosia and the joined community. The conversation explores the show's masterful use of pacing—allowing scenes to breathe and characters to simply exist together—including a shot-for-shot homage to David Lynch's Mulholland Drive in the diner scene. They dive deep into mirror neurons and empathy science, discussing how our brains require the physical presence of other people to activate crucial neural pathways, and how this connects to both Carol's 40-day isolation and the plurbs' electromagnetic communication. Rich feedback explores AI parallels, with the community drawing connections between different ways people interact with technology and how characters respond to the joined consciousness. Special Note: Episode 9 Coverage The season finale (Episode 9) airs early on Tuesday, December 23rd at 9 PM ET—two days ahead of the normal schedule. We'll record a reaction episode during the holidays, then return after the New Year with our full analytical season wrap-up. Contact Us Questions or comments?

Wicked: For Good (2025) – w/ musical & book differences

The witches are back! Meaning, of course, Marilyn, Nichole, and Elysia – the trio returns, one year later, to talk about the second and final (?) Wicked musical adaptation: How does it compare to the first? To the second act of the musical? And the books it's based on? And, most importantly, what does it mean to be changed for the better...for good? They begin with a quick spoiler-free comparison with the first movie before their full spoiler breakdown. Stick around after the outro music for an even more spoiler-filled comparison with the Gregory Maguire book.
