    Binary System Podcast #492 - WTNV #281 "Witnesses"

    This episode originally broadcast on February 5, 2026. The original podcast post is here: https://pixelatedgeek.com/2026/02/binary-system-podcast-492-wtnv-281-witnesses/ This week in Night Vale, Dana Cardinal's investigation into the murder of Marcus Vanston is finally making progress: a witness has come forward! Actually four witnesses. And not one of them has any useful information. We don't know yet if people are being made to forget what they've seen, or are being prevented from saying what they know. What we do know is that you really shouldn't announce confidential information over the radio. Cecil. For crying out loud, that's dangerous. Well, relatively dangerous. This is after all a town with student films that cause grievous bodily harm, fundraisers that involve kidnapping and ransom demands, and a political party that's defunding cancer research. Oh wait, that last one's happening in the real world too. Did we get too political there? NOT SORRY. Of course we also have to talk about the latest developments in the Neil Gaiman trashfire, but we balanced that out with some good news about DesignerCon and RiffTrax/MST3K. Two of those things will probably get our money. One of them won't. We're not buying your new book, Gaiman, GO AWAY. This episode's outro is a clip from Simple Future by TeknoAXE. It can be really easy to slip into doom and despair at the state of the world right now, but there are things you can do to help. Check out Stand With Minnesota for links to fundraisers and other ways you can show your support. If we haven't made it abundantly clear where we stand on this, FUCK ICE.

    Binary System Podcast #491 - Strange New Worlds/Lower Decks crossover

    This episode originally broadcast on January 29, 2026. The original podcast post is here: https://pixelatedgeek.com/2026/01/binary-system-podcast-491-strange-new-worlds-lower-decks-crossover/ It's a good thing Kathryn watched the Star Trek Strange New Worlds/Lower Decks crossover this week, mostly because now we can talk about how awesome it is that the actors who voiced the animated characters got to play the live-action versions in an episode that was equal parts heartwarming and freaking hilarious. But it's also good because it's literally the only new thing either of us watched all week. Sure, we could be catching up on all the Oscar noms but nooooo, we're rewatching Hannibal (third time through) and Midsommar (fourth time through...maybe fifth?) and the Pear Cider and Cigarettes commentary (oh we've lost count), because we need serious comfort watching on account of ice storms and I don't know THE WORLD? This week's outro is a clip from Circles by Roy Colwin. Looking for a present for that hard-to-shop-for person? Want to buy them (or yourself) a square foot of a castle in Scotland? Look no further!

    Binary System Podcast #490 - Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery

    This episode originally broadcast on January 22, 2026. The original podcast post is here: https://pixelatedgeek.com/2026/01/binary-system-podcast-490-wake-up-dead-man-a-knives-out-mystery/ "Hee. Moriarty throwing a paper airplane at a very angsty Hawkeye. I'll be in my bunk." Yay, we actually watched something we planned to watch! What...no, not Weapons. And not Nosferatu either. This week we finally sat down and watched the latest Knives Out movie, and we loved it. This movie has everything: amazing actors doing fantastic acting, beautiful sets and cinematography, hilarious digs at what passes for political discourse these days, and some examples of the worst and best that religion has to offer. (Seriously, Josh O'Connor won our hearts with his portrayal of the kind of person you want to see as a priest.) Needless to say, all the spoilers as we discuss a thrilling, gloriously convoluted murder mystery that kept surprising us with what we thought was going on. Also, even though we didn't watch any of the horror movies we planned to, Kathryn did finally watch Maxxxine. It was fine. This week's outro is a clip from Sunshine at the Metro by TeknoAXE. You can listen to our discussion of the movie Heretic here. And you really need to take a look at Isabella Watling's portraits that Rian Johnson commissioned for the credits of Wake Up Dead Man.

    Binary System Podcast #489 - Star Trek: Lower Decks, the final two episodes

    This episode originally broadcast on January 15, 2026. The original podcast post is here: https://pixelatedgeek.com/2026/01/binary-system-podcast-489-star-trek-lower-decks-the-final-two-episodes/ The last two episodes of the final season of Star Trek: Lower Decks had everything: fantastic stunt casting, a squad of Harry Kims, mountains of technobabble, a version of Mariner who knows very little about jailbreaks, and Jack Quaid doing his best freaked-out screams. We LOVED it. Listen in as we spoil everything, miss most of the easter eggs, and get all the names wrong. This week's outro is a clip from Upheaval by Grumplefunk.

    Binary System Podcast #488 - Mayor of Kingstown Season 4 Finale

    This episode originally broadcast on January 8, 2026. The original podcast post is here: https://pixelatedgeek.com/2026/01/binary-system-podcast-488-mayor-of-kingstown-season-4-finale/ It's finally here! Four years of gang wars and prison riots, backroom deals and family ties, unbreakable loyalty and horrific betrayal, and it all brings us to the final episode of Mayor of Kingstown, where... ...hang on, what's that? So this isn't the final season? Well, we can't say we're all that surprised, because while this season has had its share of major characters buying the farm, there's still way too many people still standing for it to be the the end of the story. Episode 10 of season 4 wraps up with a ton of violence, a lot of surprising actions (some of them being surprisingly stupid, jeez, you guys, could you not?), and some deaths, but not as many as we were expecting. Tune in for all the spoilers, but unlike some organizations we're not going to put any spoilers in the headline. (Why would you do that?) This week's outro is a clip from Atomika Bass Revolt by TeknoAXE. Correction: when we're talking about the awful scene where the Colombian assassin is getting out of the handcuffs, we mentioned "Dolores Claiborne." We meant "Gerald's Game." Stupid parallel stories that had no valid reasons for BEING parallel. Looking for a present for that hard-to-shop-for person? Want to buy them (or yourself) a square foot of a castle in Scotland?

    Binary System Podcast #487 - 2022's Christmas musical "Spirited."

    This episode originally broadcast on January 1, 2026. The original podcast post is here: https://pixelatedgeek.com/2026/01/binary-system-podcast-487-2022s-christmas-musical-spirited/ Happy New Year everybody! Hope your holiday is fun and your 2026 better than you hoped! This week we're sitting down with special guest Hannah Wallace to discuss 2022's epic Christmas musical, Spirited, which we really should've watched before now because it's all kinds of fun. This week's outro is a clip from Auld Lang Syne by Lovebyte. Correction: it's not Robert De Niro in Stranger Than Fiction, it's Dustan Hoffman. Here's the link to the Ryan Reynolds Vasectomy gin commercial. Make sure to check out the Nick Cannon version too. And here's a link to Hugh's review of Avatar: Fire and Ash. (Hugh is one of our most forgiving reviewers, so when he gives something a D+ you should definitely pay attention.) Looking for a present for that hard-to-shop-for person?

    Binary System Podcast #486 – Mayor of Kingstown season 4 episode 9 “Teeth and Tissue”

    This episode originally broadcast on December 25, 2025. The original podcast post is here: https://pixelatedgeek.com/2025/12/binary-system-podcast-486-mayor-of-kingstown-season-4-episode-9-teeth-and-tissue/ Okay you guys, this is a really weird episode to drop on a holiday: the latest chapter of Mayor of Kingstown (possibly the second-to-last episode ever?) bombarded us for 47 solid minutes with death, torture, plot twists, betrayal, and excrement MERRY CHRISTMAS. Seriously, this was hands down our favorite episode of the season, but maybe don’t drink a cup of coffee before watching it, that’s gotta be bad for your heart. One day we will stop using spinningmerkaba’s Christmas On Mars as the outro at Christmas, but today is not…yeah, you know us better than that, we’re never gonna stop using this. Here's our conversation about episode 8 we mentioned, giant GIANT spoiler warnings for that one. Looking for a present for that hard-to-shop-for person?

    Binary System Podcast #485 - Mayor of Kingstown and Star Trek: Lower Decks

    This episode originally broadcast on December 11, 2025. The original podcast post is here: https://pixelatedgeek.com/2025/12/binary-system-podcast-485-mayor-of-kingstown-and-star-trek-lower-decks/ his week's episode of Mayor of Kingstown was slightly less stressful than last week's, but everyone is still in a hell of a lot of peril. There are some incredibly dangerous characters in this show, and it's a toss up who's going to be attacked by their worst enemy first. (It's gonna be Kevin, isn't it? Kevin is somehow on everybody's bad side.) Mike and Cindy-the-Guard are still adorable together, but it's hard to root for them when you know Mike has the worst luck in the world with relationships. (Anyone remember Iris? Does Mike even remember Iris? Sure thought that storyline would have come up before now...) In much lighter fare, Kathryn watched another episode of the last season of Star Trek: Lower Decks. This one mixes things up a little by devoting an entire episode to the secondary characters. Meaning the command crew. (Yes, we know this was an homage to the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode "Lower Decks." Well, we know that now.) And we've got the usual tangents to all the other things we're watching lately. (For anyone who wants to see a live performance of "The Waverly Gallery", no you don't.) This episode's outro is a clip from Robo Disco by TeknoAXE. Looking for a present for that hard-to-shop-for person? Want to buy them (or yourself) a square foot of a castle in Scotland?
