Lanterns - S01E04 - The Weenie 09.09.2026 2t 38minDavid and Jean hit the midseason mark of HBO's Lanterns with an episode that keeps flipping the buddy cop dynamic between Hal and John Stewart Jr. on its head. The conversation covers a standout car scene between the two leads, the show's clever use of J-cuts to keep viewers locked onto the screen, and the deepening mystery around the Manhunter and the compound of extremists at the center of the season.

Dolly Parton and Tim Curry - Into the West 04.09.2026 1t 8minDavid, Lisa, and Bryan light a candle for two icons lost just 48 hours apart. The first half celebrates Dolly Parton, from her childhood in Appalachian poverty through her breakout on the Porter Wagoner Show and into a career that stretched far beyond country music. The hosts trace her film roles in 9 to 5, The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas, and Steel Magnolias, her production company's surprising connection to Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and a philanthropic legacy that includes the Imagination Library, COVID vaccine research funding, and wraparound services that cut her hometown's school dropout rate in half. After the break, the trio turns to Tim Curry, whose fearless portrayal of Dr. Frank-N-Furter in The Rocky Horror Picture Show became a cultural landmark for self-expression and nonconformity. The hosts explore his eclectic range from Legend and IT to Clue, Muppet Treasure Island, and three Tony-nominated Broadway roles, and reflect on how Rocky Horror created space for generations of nonconformists to gather, play, and express themselves freely. Community voices from the Lorehounds Discord share their own memories throughout, including the inevitable question: which Tim Curry role was your awakening?Contact Us Questions or comments?

Lanterns - S01E02 - Trust Fall 26.08.2026 2t 43minDavid and Jean continue their episode-to-episode coverage of HBO's Lanterns with the season's second installment. The conversation opens with fresh takes on Hal and John's evolving buddy cop dynamic, the mystery surrounding Antaan and the Manhunter-related genocide referenced in the episode, and the show's understated approach to establishing John Stewart Jr. as something more than an average human despite lacking a metagene. They also dig into the episode's DC universe Easter eggs, from Gotham and Coast City references to Mogo, before moving into a full scene by scene breakdown.Contact UsQuestions or comments?

The conversation opens spoiler free, walking through the show's premise, Jean's primer on Green Lantern Corps lore, and their first impressions of Kyle Chandler's Hal Jordan and Aaron Pierre's John Stewart Jr. before diving into a full scene by scene breakdown of the murder mystery kicking off the season.

House of the Dragon - S03E08 - The Treasons at Tumbleton 13.08.2026 2t 13minDavid and Jean cover the season three finale, an episode that delivers on its promises while leaving plenty of open threads heading into season four. The battle sequence gets its due, with particular attention to how differently the various players choose to wield the power at their disposal. Rhaenyra's big moments in the episode earn some of the strongest reactions of the season, with both hosts reflecting on what this finale finally reveals about how she understands the weight of the crown and what wielding it actually costs the people around her. David closes with a closer listen to the episode's score and what the shift between its warmer and more discordant variations is doing underneath the season's final scenes.Contact UsQuestions or comments?

Sam Neill - In memoriam - Into the West 10.08.2026 31minDavid, Lisa, and Bryan light a candle for Sam Neill, who passed away shortly after announcing he was cancer free following treatment for the blood cancer he was diagnosed with in 2022. In this shorter tribute episode, the trio traces Neill's journey from his Northern Irish birth through a childhood in New Zealand, where a stutter taught him to listen, to a 50-year career spanning 74 credits across film and television. From early breakthroughs in Sleeping Dogs and My Brilliant Career through iconic roles in The Hunt for Red October, Dead Calm, The Piano, and of course Jurassic Park, the hosts celebrate an actor who moved seamlessly from leading man to beloved character actor without ever disappearing. The episode also features reflections from the Lorehounds community, sharing their favorite Neill performances and memories of an actor universally remembered as warm, generous, and endlessly watchable.Contact UsQuestions or comments?

House of the Dragon - S03E07 - A Dragon in Winter - Feedback 07.08.2026 1t 36minDavid and Jean dig into listener feedback on "A Dragon in Winter," with a community that had plenty to say. The conversation opens with a lively debate on where Cole's death ranks among the great villain exits in the Westeros universe, with Jean making the case that his particular brand of self-deluding villainy makes it more satisfying than either Joffrey or Ramsay. Ormond gets a thorough going over as listeners weigh in on his manipulation of Ulf and his willingness to set aside his stated principles the moment a dragon becomes available to him. The Harrenhal dream sequences spark a broader discussion about whether the castle itself is selective about who it reaches and whether Targaryens are uniquely susceptible to whatever is in the air there. Military Corner returns with a deep dive into the just war doctrine and the historical precedents for how rules of warfare get invoked, ignored, and exploited.Contact UsQuestions or comments?

After their spoiler-free (more positive than not) fresh takes (00:32:38), they talk through the on-screen action and the lore behind it (00:53:52).But, before that, they begin by checking in on recent Marvel news (00:02:15) – from a new T’Challa and Ghost Rider to the the Wonder Man heartbreak – plus the DC trailers (00:23:06) for the swiftly approaching Western scifi Noir take on Lanterns and October's body-horror appears-to-be-a-banger Clayface.Contact UsQuestions or comments?

House of the Dragon - S03E07 - A Dragon in Winter 05.08.2026 2t 21minDavid and Jean cover the penultimate episode, packed with small scenes and big questions about power. The dragon fight gets its due, from the direction and CGI to what the outcome means for every rider involved. Helena's dream sequences get a close reading, with the pale horse, the eclipse, and the snow pointing toward Game of Thrones' final chapter in ways the community is already debating. Daemon's plea for his daughter's life marks a genuine moment of growth, while the Rhaena's storyline draws pointed criticism from both hosts, who feel the show has sidelined her agency in service of someone else's character arc.Contact UsQuestions or comments?

House of the Dragon - S03E06 - Faceless Men - Feedback 31.07.2026 1t 28minDavid and Jean dig into community feedback on "Faceless Men," covering listener reactions to the episode's many moving pieces and open questions. The discussion takes in Marilyn's deep dive into the history of male squeamishness around menstruation, Jacob G.'s sharp parallel between Hugh's disastrous trip home and the Gold Cloak resignations, and the community's ongoing debate about Alys Rivers and whether the show has yet given her a moment that earns her the witch credibility the story keeps implying she deserves. Military Corner returns with a breakdown of Cole's flail and a primer on the rules of warfare, specifically the line between an allowed ruse de guerre and an act of perfidy, applied to what we just watched on screen.Contact UsQuestions or comments?

House of the Dragon - S03E06 - Faceless Men 28.07.2026 2t 5minDavid and Jean cover episode six, unpacking the episode's title across its multiple meanings and what they signal about where the season is heading. The discussion covers Criston Cole's end, Daemon's increasingly poor judgment, the Gold Cloak crisis, and what the shadowy assassin network operating inside King's Landing means for Rhaenyra's grip on power. David also brings some real world political history to bear on the question of what happens when rulers neglect their security forces.Contact UsQuestions or comments?

House of the Dragon - S03E05 - Unbowed and Unbent - Feedback 25.07.2026 1t 20minDavid and Jean dig into listener feedback on "Unbowed and Unbent," and the episode's most contested scene dominates the conversation. The community pushes back hard on the Harrenhal rescue sequence, with listeners arguing that Alys Rivers is far too capable and calculating to have genuinely needed saving, and that what looked like a damsel in distress moment may actually be Alys tightening her psychological hold over Aemond. The discussion also takes in Criston Cole's arc and the community's feelings about his inevitable end, a tinfoil hat theory from the Dungeons 'n' Durags crew about how Ormund's assassins are getting so close to the Gold Cloaks, and some deep lore on Harrenhal's history courtesy of community members and Nancy Hand the Pod. The book corner closes things out with Jean weighing in on how the show's divergences from the source material are landing for readers and non-readers alike.Contact UsQuestions or comments?

House of the Dragon - S03E05 - Unbowed and Unbent 21.07.2026 1t 52minDavid and Jean take a scene by scene approach to "Unbowed and Unbent," an episode that shifts gears from the psychological intensity of the earlier run into something more mechanical, moving pieces into position for the back half of the season. Criston Cole gets the lion's share of attention, with Jean making the case that Cole's entire identity is the product of a man who never got over rejection, and David walking through the real world history and tactical use of caltrops as Cole's guerrilla campaign hits its limits. The Harrenhal storyline draws pointed criticism for leaning on the tired damsel in distress trope in a show that has set a far higher bar for itself, while Alicent's deeply uncomfortable confrontation with Helena over moon tea opens up one of the episode's most genuinely complex conversations about bodily autonomy, survival, and the cost of power on the women who wield it.Contact UsQuestions or comments?
