We are firmly in Chris territory today, as it's a video game adaptation. Although we do learn Steve has played a Fallout game before, he's not sure which one, but he has! How does Fallout on Amazon Prime fare for a longtime (since 97) fan and for someone pretty much brand new to the franchise? Find out all this, some Phantom Menace talk and a whole lot more on a new Episode One Pod ..read more

This week Steve and Chris have a special guest, Cindy Moon (https://www.instagram.com/cindymoon007) She's here to talk about X-men 97 Netflix's The Three Body Problem. We spend a little time getting to Know Cindy, and then a brief digression into Moonfall (F* the Moon! F* the Moon!) Then we get into our two shows! First we dig into X-men 97 (10:30). Talk about our respective histories with the original Fox cartoon show and dig into the controversy behind the showrunner's dismissal. Then we jump over to Three Body Problem (48:30). Cindy gets deep into the depiction of the Cultural Revolution, a ..read more

Steve and Chris watch Avatar, no not that one, no not that one, no definitely not that year... Yeah the new one, the live action one on netflix. After one hit (One Piece) and one miss (Cowboy Bebop) how is Netflix's latest foray into the world of live action anime? Overall, not bad. Before all that, Chris talks a bit about Madame Web, and yeah, pretty much everything you've heard about it is right ..read more

The MCU is back... the seth MCfarlane cinematic Universe! Wait, oh yeah Echo is part of the other MCU. After a long layoff, Ted is back. And this time he's on the Goldbergs? Not exactly, but we talk about the similarities. Also, Steve never watched either Ted film. We also dive into Echo, which checks a lot of boxes for the podcast. Comic book adaptation, Native Heritage, overall inclusive theories. And violence? It's a great, if slightly tardy episode of the Episode One Podcast ..read more

Gen V, Frasier, how could you imagine a better 188th spectacular?   We spend about the first 45 minute son Gen V, how it relates to Pretty Little Liars, and whether it succeeds enough to get Steve to pay for Prime. Then we do a quick check-in on Frasier, where in we discuss Kelsey Grammar's career more than the show. Then we spend the last half talking about shows from the podcast's past and set ourselves up for the road to 199 ..read more

We've got a short (for us) episode tonight. The twice renewed Krapopolis has finally aired. Was it worth the wait (and the hype?) We probably ended up talking a bit more about the history and scheduling of the show than the show itself. But it was a unique show and a unique story. Let us know what you think, and follow us! linktr.ee/episodeonepod ..read more

Apologies for the poor audio quality. Chris didn't realize the worng microphone was selected. He sounds like he's on a boat with Luffy. We finally review one of the One shows, after a missed opportunity in 2020, we have a second chance at One Piece. We marvel at the history of the Manga and Anime, then dig into how they seemingly did everything right in this adaptation. Plus we dig deep into Skrull steve ..read more

Finally, Star Wars on the episode one podcast. Again. But this time, we feature a character directly tied to Star Wars Episode One. Ahsoka is technically Qui-Gon's Great Grand Padawan. (it makes sense if you're weird) Is the Star Wars universe reaching MCU's level of over saturation? Or is this the perfect thing to watch as we head towards the no-content age? All this plus Crossovers and 30 second pitches ..read more
