Episode 1x13: "And No Running Away on Me. You Promise?" (Martha and Toni)

Oh, hey! We’re back with Episode 13! This is the second of our “duo” series, where we take a deeper look into each of the pairs outside of the context of the recaps. Next up is Martha Blackburn (Jenna Clause) and Toni Shalifoe (Erana James)!   



We’ll talk about Martha’s attempts to reinvent herself and how they relate to the ways she is coping with trauma, the elusive concept of home and the intersections of perfection/imperfection, trusting/distrusting, confrontational/non-confrontational. We’ll also discuss two different depictions of resilience and drive, the important distinctions around what is changing you, why Martha latches onto Shelby and the enduring connection to the land. Our special theme for these two is "Fight and Flight", and we will discuss the different ways they each practice avoidance in some situations, but are fully confrontational in others.



Also! We tell a lot of stories in this one, went way too deep into what character we would be on the island and Aly is unintentionally super Canadian saying 4x the acceptable amount of “right?” and “you know?”. So feel free to make fun of her.
