Sensational She-Geek, Live from Yancy Street‪!‬ Sensational She-Geek

This is the one, the Ahsoka episode! Adam joins me for a (lit, tbh) long hour-plus discussion of the show so far, at the end of this episode! Let's do it. 
Podcast notes for this episode: http://sensationalshegeek.weebly.com/full-archive/ep104-ahsoka-hour-the-star-card-knight-terrors-wrap-up-gotham-war-explained-fall-of-x-catch-up-more-comicsmangaanime 
Kicking it off with TAROT 00:05:46 and our Card of the Week, #17: the Star! After the history and symbolism, I cover the card's Interpretation/Meaning 14:55, and finally the always fun Pop Culture references 18:00 and summary. 
MANGA segment 25:19 includes the little bits of manga news, followed by catching up on what I've been reading in the world of manga lately. 
COMIC BOOKS 32:47 starting with October release news. Recent Reads/Events 39:07 including Kelly Thompson's The Cull #1, the finale of Dark Knights of Steel, plus Marvel Unleashed #1 and a ton more, all leading into catching up with the ending of Knight Terrors, which itself leads into the Batman/Catwoman Gotham War. On Marvel's side, the extensive Fall of X books have been read and summarized as well as I think is reasonable. 
TV/Movies/Anime segments 1:24:59 start with everything new and noteworthy, including new English anime dubs, shows I've caught up on or started fresh, and some recent movies and one-off's that I've also enjoyed. Really quickly, there's also relevant News/Announcements 1:32:39.
Finally, (with Adam joining the discussion here) after some actually pretty solid discussion of the Harley Quinn show's finale of season 4 (and what we'd like to see in a season 5), we get to Ahsoka! The show, that is. Be warned, we saved recording this until we'd already cracked a few beers, so what you're hearing is raw, mostly unfiltered drunk nerds get excited about the Clone Wars and Rebels series' long-game outcome. Hail Filoni, tbh. It's so good to see....you get it. It's all in there, I hope the discussion isn't too wild.
I'll be back with another episode uhhhh hopefully by the end of the month! Lots going on in life atm, so scheduling my recordings have been kinda difficult. But I shall return, and Adam too! There's at  least, what, 2 more Ahsoka episodes to cover? And always, always, more comics, manga, and anime. The Fall 2023 anime season will be announced soon, too! Peace out, girl scouts.

Recent Comic Reads and Events 00:33:07 covers fun indie titles like Swan Songs (that Wijngaard art!), The Madness, and Vampirella/Dracula: Rage #1, plus the current Big Two events, Knight Terrors at DC and Fall of X at Marvel.
TV/Movies/Anime has minor news at the front 00:44:13 with Adam joining us again to talk the new Destiny 2 Zavala casting! Don't miss Ahsoka on the 23rd, we'll discuss it on the subsequent podcast!

We end with the 5th episode of Harley Quinn season 4, where both character arcs of the leading ladies ties us back to the message of tarot's the Tower card. Whabam! 
Join us again next week for more Harley Quinn, prep for he Ahsoka episode, a TON more comics and manga chat, and tarot's The Star! Stay Hydrated and Sweaty, nerds.

Hello and welcome back to the Yancy St Podcast! We're happy to have you. 
Podcast notes: http://sensationalshegeek.weebly.com/full-archive/ep102-the-devil-and-baphomet-explained-animeanimation-and-unionization-forced-musical-episodes-and-more 
I got a little excited about the TAROT Card of the Week this week, which is #15: The Devil 00:02:59. It actually takes up most of the episode, so I'll give each section it's own timestamp: Description/Symbolism @ 00:15:56. Interpretation/Meaning @ 00:25:50. Pop Culture @ 00:28:36. Summary @ 00:37:00. I know it seems like a lot but we've got a ton in here: historical explanation for Baphomet, Marvel, Anime, DC and Justice League character correspondences, Devil designs through history and the historical evolution of how we got there, and more. Here's the link to my Satana podcast special: https://sensationalshegeek.weebly.com/full-archive/satana-hellstrom-the-devils-daughter-satanic-panic-seduction-of-the-innocent-the-comics-code-full-character-history 
The weekly COMIC BOOKS Lo-Down on Recent Reads/Events 00:39:39  includes DC's Knight Terrors and Marvel's Fall of X, plus The Sacrificers #1, Amazing Spider-Man Annual, and more. 
Adam joins the chat for the TV/Movies/Anime segment 00:49:41, where we talk animation and unionization--while we see most of Hollywood put on pause for the SAG-AFTRA strikes, when will voice actors and animators get their own justice?
We finish with the shows, currently Harley Quinn S04E04 56;28 (The First Person to Come Back From a Business Conference Without Chlamydia), and Star Trek: Strange New Worlds S02E09 (Subspace Rhapsody). And boy, that musical episode was certainly....certainly something.

Hello and Happy August! We'll cover some new-month topics this week as well as our regular fun programming. 
Join us in the Yancy Street Discord! https://discord.gg/gU59jDUt Follow along with the podcast notes: http://sensationalshegeek.weebly.com/full-archive/ep101-temperance-comic-events-and-look-ahead-secret-invasion-finale-loki-s2-trailer-harley-quinn-s4-and-more EDIT: Found the comics I was looking for! Link to Elektra Daredevil action figure review: https://youtu.be/r-2iTXXNXI0 
Tarot Lessons Card of the Week 00:07:12 is #14 of the Major Arcana, Temperance! A card of balance, blending, and queer identity. Plus Marvel and Anime tarot references! 
The Manga segment 00:19:18 briefly covers My Dress Up Darling volume 9, as well as Superman VS Meshi @2.
The segment for COMIC BOOKS 00:21:35 starts with covering recent releases, including Ultimate Invasion, Hellcat and She-Hulk finales, Marvel's the Fall and DC's Knight Terrors. For coming this week, we have an even better list of fun releases that I'll be covering on the next episode! Finally, I go over some more of what to expect and look forward to for comic books in this month of August. 
TV, Movies, and Anime begins at 00:43:42, talking briefly some new things for the Summer Anime Season such as Mashle, Pokemon, and Saint Cecilia. Also gone over are The Little Mermaid, and on the wildly opposite end of the spectrum, A Knock at the Cabin. Then, Adam leads the short talk on the upcoming Castlevania spinoff show! 
We end as usual with Current Shows 00:46:45, starting with the latest Strange New Worlds (S02E08), and a somber ide of the franchise. 51:36 sees us go into the Secret Invasion finale, and then remember that the Loki Season 2 trailer came out, and so we get a lot into that one, too! It ends with Harley Quinn S04E01-3 1:05:03, a delightful kickoff to what is hopefully not the final arc of the show. 
Come back next week for more comics, more shows, more tarot, and whatever else we come up with by then! Joins the discord, follow us online, and more in the links below.

Good day to you, fellow nerds and enthusiasts. Please check out the Yancy street discord to find myself and Adam! https://discord.gg/3BpsvxER Podcast Notes for links or to follow along: http://sensationalshegeek.weebly.com/full-archive/ep100-knight-terrors-the-marvels-trailer-breakdowntheories-sdcc23-they-cloned-tyrone-strange-new-worlds-x-lower-decks 
Our Tarot studies this week coves the exciting Card of the Week, #13: Death! 00:04:44 Talking the Black Plague, modern takes, Truck-kun, and more!
The MANGA Segment  19.31is mostly a brief check-in about those DC Comics Manga being released in English, which are all enjoyable so far!
There's a lot for COMIC BOOKS 21.23, starting with news, which covers "Big Two" news for October-- Halloween specials, one-shots, series kick-offs, and more! Then we get into Recent Reads/Events 32.26, talking my surprising love for Tales f the Titans #1, the new Harley Quinn anthology, and more. Dc's Knight Terrors event is covered starting at 40.31, and I am completely caught up!
Going into TV/MOVIES/Anime 48.23, we stat with what's New and Noteworthy, including the Summer 2023 anime season, Minx, and a lot of love for They Cloned Tyrone. 
The News/Announcements/Rumors 54.20 is entirely what comes from SDCC 2023, including new action figure releases from Mezco and Hasbro. That also leads us into the trailer for THE MARVELS 1:03: 54, where I break the thing down, add in my own questions and theories, and go over the comic book arc that introduces Park Seo-joon, playing alien character Yan D' Aladna (NOT Carol's husband in any way). 
We finish with tar Trek: Strange New Worlds Season 2 1:14:09, covering episodes S01E06: Lost in Translation  and S02E07: Those Old Scientists, which is the crossover the Lower Decks! It was a beaut, released early for Comic Con. 
Come back next week for more sweaty nerd content! Stay cool.

Join The Yancy Street Discord! https://discord.gg/XTX2PZJ7 We've entered the hottest part of the year, just in time for Convention season! But the heat isn't the only major complication this year. More in the news segment!
Podcast notes for mentioned links/to follow along with this episode: http://sensationalshegeek.weebly.com/full-archive/ep99tarot-history-12-mcu-synergy-fatigue-dcs-knight-terrors-x-men-before-the-fall-mawsuperman-trekusawhouk-more
Continuing our Tarot Lessons, the Card of the Week 00:03:19 is Major Arcana #12: the Hanged Man. I found what I thought was some neat history, trailing down into the usual pop culture references and concluding with the modern take on the card. 
There's a bit of news for Comic Books 00:15:46, which contains spoilers for the recent Fallen Friend issue and the future of the character in question. The base of our MCU Fatigue discussions found in this episode starts here. 
The fairly extensive Recent Reads/Events 00:23:52 covers almost a month of comics catching up, including talk about both the current Marvel and DC comic events. For Marvel, I put together a somewhat brief summary of the Sins of Sinister event and how it leads into our current Before the Fall "precursor" event. Then for DC, I have a very basic rundown of the Knight Terrors event backstory, and a few of the stories that have happened so far. More for both next episode! Other comics discussed in slightly more-depth include Doctor Strange #5, Jon Kent's new series, the end of Hairball, the complicated feelings on Captain Marvel through Dark Tempest #1 (and her movie), and of course, more on Fallen Friend. 
Shows/Movies/Anime 00:51:50 begins with what we've been currently watching, starting with a longer discussion of Hijack (AppleTV+) and ending with one about My Adventures with Superman (MAX)! Both are very positive, just so ya know. 
Then News for this section 001:04:04, with some Anime Expo announcements, some Greta Gerwig mentions, and a good amount of discourse on the VARIOUS big strikes happening right now, and how that'll effect both con season and the immediate future of fandom.
Adam mostly covers the real talk on the latest Secret Invasion episodes 01:13:34, covering the BIGGEST reveals, who's lived and died so far, general MCU observations, and a fair amount of theories. 
Last is Star Trek: Strange New Worlds 01:21:34, covering episodes 3-5 of season 2. All of them have been delightful, IMO, true to the spirit of Trek. On that note, we also ended up talking Doctor Who, and my "theory" on how the two shows are basically the same thing. 
The end! I'll be back as soon as I can manage, so stay hydrated, but metaphorically sweaty.
