December 13, 2021 12:00 - 21 minutes - 27.8 MBDavid and Michel gush over what may be Torchwood's crowning achievement (with some big reservations), go on a brief Among Us tangent, and somehow find a way to bring The X-Files up in conversation again.

Torchwood S1E4 – Cyberwoman
November 01, 2021 11:00 - 31 minutes - 36.3 MBDavid and Michel disagree over the quality of the episode Cyberwoman, while agreeing that some elements don't work.

October 25, 2021 11:00 - 24 minutes - 30.1 MBCONTENT WARNING: Mentions of sexual assault and suicide. David and Michel work their way through what is arguably Torchwood's best, but also darkest, episode so far, as they talk about where this episode succeeds and fails, introduce a new running segment, and witness a failed attempt at reverse psychology.

October 18, 2021 11:00 - 28 minutes - 33.4 MBCONTENT WARNING: Mentions of sexual assault.
