*Gulp* Spooky Action (Wynonna Earp S2 E2)
November 26, 2020 20:00 - 42 minutes - 38.9 MBA real quick-hitter here, folks. This episode was a narrative exercise in running in place, so we talk about Medea, police clearance rates, and don't even do a synchronized howl when we discuss the lesbian sex scene.

Kristen Bell but Better? (Wynonna Earp S2 E1)
November 19, 2020 20:00 - 1 hour - 59 MBWynonna Earp has rewarded our patience! The most beloeved episode yet. There's a wonderful IT nerd, we bash all the gorgeous CW doorknobs, and we discuss why Halsey inspires real pain. Music: All Hands - Protest The Hero

November 16, 2020 20:00 - 25 minutes - 22.9 MBWe just spent last episode ragging on Wynonna Earp's season 1 finale. Would we be fool enough to commit to watching more? What do you take us for, not-idiots? Music: Web in Front - Archers of Loaf

October 08, 2020 19:00 - 1 hour - 57 MBSo, we all hate Willa as a character and want to see her torn apart by wild horses tied to each of her limbs.

September 03, 2020 19:00 - 54 minutes - 50.2 MBEver wonder what we'd do if we ran into a really good episode of a TV show? Of course we'll still nitpick it, talk about Shakespeare's biceps, and provide facts about Alberta's meat processing industry. Music: "Potemkin City Limits" - Propagandhi

The Holy Champmunks (Wynonna Earp S1 E6)
August 24, 2020 19:00 - 1 hour - 61.9 MBThe monumental breakup of Champ and Waverly is here, but is it what we really wanted?

June 25, 2020 19:00 - 1 hour - 64.2 MBWe discuss Canada's robust policy of horse murder, Dane Cook, and also I guess we talk about the show we're watching. New format, no format. No gods, no masters.

June 18, 2020 19:00 - 1 hour - 71.1 MBHow does any of this work? We're entirely baffled by intricacies of Wynonna Earp and much more concerned with destructible throat anatomy and how to date bartenders without them knowing.

QuaranTeens (Riverdale S3 E9)

Thank U, Next (Riverdale S3 E6)
April 23, 2020 19:00 - 1 hour - 58.7 MBDisagreement in the ranks when Hunter enjoys this episode of Riverdale way more than Kevin and Sarah. Pros: there's a massive body count. Cons: it's Riverdale so it's completely stupid and illogical.
