    Ep 120: It’s Just the Tunnel

    Loyalties and alliances are constantly tested and renegotiated as the last remaining humans try to ensure their survival in a mostly-dead world. We discuss the treatment of addiction as a moral failing, who decides what's an acceptable loss, and Monty's commitment to hydrofarming.   Music: Reloaded by Savfkwww.youtube.com/savfkmusic www.facebook.com/savfkmusicCreative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License (CC BY 4.0)https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Hosted on Acast.

    Ep 119: Extenuating Circumstances

    After a nice, long, unannounced and somewhat unintended break, Jenna and Megan are back at it, analyzing and agonizing over our favorite morally fraught television program. We talk about Diyoza, the new villain and ultimate pragmatist; the fanatic gladiator cult that Octavia built and is desperately trying to maintain now that they're out of the bunker; and how the relationships that Clarke and Bellamy have formed over the intervening six years shape their current motivations.   Music: Reloaded by Savfkwww.youtube.com/savfkmusic www.facebook.com/savfkmusicCreative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License (CC BY 4.0)https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Hosted on Acast.

    Ep 118: Good Guys

    It's been six years since the world ended AGAIN, and our favorite characters are back at it, trying to save their friends and keep the human race alive. We discuss Clarke's mythologizing of her own life, the reversal of roles when a new threat from space appears, Octavia's violent judicial system, and most importantly, Bellamy's new facial hair.   Music: Reloaded by Savfkwww.youtube.com/savfkmusic www.facebook.com/savfkmusicCreative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License (CC BY 4.0)https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Hosted on Acast.

    Ep 117: The Head and the Heart

    As Season Four - and the surface of the earth - comes to a fiery end, characters are scrambling to figure out how they'll survive the next 5+ years of nuclear fallout. Octavia experiences the burden of leadership for the first time. Jaha's ego and entitlement cause problems, AGAIN. A ragtag team of young adults decide to escape to space for a bit, but someone has to make a sacrifice for them to succeed. Content warning for suicide attempt, 42:03 - 43:24.   Music: Reloaded by Savfkwww.youtube.com/savfkmusicwww.facebook.com/savfkmusicCreative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License (CC BY 4.0)https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Hosted on Acast.

    Ep 116: It's Unity Day

    It's Octavia's time to shine as she enters the conclave to fight for Skaikru. Through her cooperation with other warriors, her memory of Lincoln's beliefs, and her witnessing how far Luna has fallen, she comes to a radical decision about how humanity will survive this new apocalypse. And then she's immediately betrayed by her own people, which feels about right for this show. We discuss the Hunger Games vibes, the convenience of the number 100, a tense standoff between the Clarke and Bellamy, and the unfortunately predictable loss of a major character.  Content warning for suicide/suicide pact from 50:10 - 58:45   Music: Reloaded by Savfkwww.youtube.com/savfkmusic www.facebook.com/savfkmusicCreative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License (CC BY 4.0)https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Hosted on Acast.

    Ep 115: Who We Want To Be

    In the last days before the arrival of a deadly radiation wave, our characters are faced with fewer and fewer options for survival. We discuss Jaha's conspiracy theories, Monty's admirable commitment to his friends, Octavia's extremely brief attempt to give up fighting, and how Clarke just keeps trying to become Commander to solve problems. We are also joined by Josette of Brody Quest, mostly so she could defend Murphy. Content warning for a suicide attempt at 29:00 -  29:40, and mentions of a suicide pact throughout.   Music: Reloaded by Savfkwww.youtube.com/savfkmusicwww.facebook.com/savfkmusicCreative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License (CC BY 4.0)https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Hosted on Acast.

    Ep 114: The Same Old Excuse

    In these episodes, a series of increasingly unfortunate events cause the characters to become more and more desperate for a plan to survive the encroaching nuclear radiation. Jasper provides levity through pranks and Dr. Seuss quotes. Luna insists on continuing to be an obstacle. Kane and Abby act as parental figures to these traumatized young people. Raven gets a case of Limitless Brain, but it has its consequences. And, of course, Clarke cuts Bellamy off during an emotional conversation, because this show wants us to suffer, too.   Music: Reloaded by Savfkwww.youtube.com/savfkmusic www.facebook.com/savfkmusicCreative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License (CC BY 4.0)https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Hosted on Acast.

    Ep 113: Just Different Variations of the Trolley Problem

    Our friends from the 100 may have just solved one apocalypse, but as Season 4 begins they're faced with another one, as well as several smaller yet more immediate crises. These kids just can't catch a break, huh? Skaikru tries to maintain good relations with the grounders, while racing to create safe shelter against a nuclear fallout, and managing who knows key information about the impending threat. Also, there's the most romantic scene ever created in fiction, which mostly involves characters writing each other's names down. Content warning: we discuss a suicide attempt from 20:23 - 22:04, and make brief mention of sexual coercion from 59:58 - 1:00:28.   Music: Reloaded by Savfk www.youtube.com/savfkmusic www.facebook.com/savfkmusic Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License (CC BY 4.0)https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Hosted on Acast.
