Whatcha Watchin'?: Paradise

If you are as hungry for more Paradise content as the sibs are, you'll want to hear this conversation! Perpetua & Lovingkindness waste no time sharing their thoughts on the second season of Paradise and the show as a whole. While they felt Season One told a tight, thrilling story, Season Two leaves the sibs with more frustrating questions than answers. Chief among them: Why are we still confused about A.L.E.X.?!

Whatcha Watchin'?: Wonder Man

In this special edition Watcha Watchin'? episode, the sibs talk about Marvel's latest TV show, Wonder Man. For Perpetua & Lovingkindness, this isn't just any TV show—it's Haitian (!!), it's powerful, and it's surprisingly authentic. We unpack the emotional themes of the show—family dynamics, friendship, loyalty, and betrayal. We give flowers to the series leads, and zoom out to muse about what Wonder Man suggests about Marvel's next chapter. Stream Wonder Man on Disney+!
