June 01, 2018 04:38 - 39 minutes - 23.9 MB

Once again the questionable tactics of lying to one’s friends, or lying to protect one’s friends, is discussed, along with (gasp) an actual good reason for James to want to be Guardian. And there’s a weird cult with funky rocks that create Worldkillers. Because that makes sense. Host Trish Matson with Brianna Taeuber.

May 26, 2018 01:45 - 38 minutes

Much discussion this week about how deception is maybe, just maybe, the wrong policy most of the time, especially when talking to the daughter of a supervillain.

May 19, 2018 16:53 - 1 hour - 37.9 MB

It’s all Super Science and Meanwhiles this week on the podcast as an eclipse for some reason affects Supergirl more than night does. Lena is suddenly mistrusted again because she used (gasp!)

May 11, 2018 05:54 - 48 minutes - 32 MB

February 28, 2018 05:21 - 45 minutes - 28 MB

Team Supergirl goes after Purity with all the subtlety of Johnny Weir’s hair!

February 17, 2018 01:50 - 42 minutes - 26.3 MB

February 05, 2018 05:04 - 45 minutes - 28.7 MB

In the course of discussing this episode, our panel inaugurates a new segment called “Super Science!”, in which eye-roll inducing scientific whoppers are properly called out.

December 08, 2017 04:22 - 1 hour - 48.6 MB

November 16, 2017 01:21 - 47 minutes - 28.2 MB

November 08, 2017 01:00 - 12 minutes - 28.6 MB
