SILY 702- System Failure

Today I’m sharing something I’ve never talked about publicly. It’s a story I almost waited to tell, because honestly, we’re still in the middle of it. But I’ve come to believe that sometimes the most valuable lessons aren’t the ones you share from the other side of the mountain. They’re the ones you share from the climb.

TSTP 93- The Party

Two terrifying creatures just crashed Dustin’s solo run to the Food Mart, Eleven goes out on a limb to save him, and the gang goes underground to celebrate Nikki’s birthday.

S5E8 Five-Twenty-Ten

We are joined by Ynza for this episode of the podcast as we discuss this awesome episode of Fringe! We enthusiastically share excitement about Blair Brown being back in full force in this episode as well as how great Josh Jackson’s performance is playing a new version of Peter.

SILY 701- Hands of a Father

I want to tell you about a pair of hands. Hands that could lay a straight line of carpet across a living room floor, split a cord of firewood without breaking a sweat, or coax a stubborn CV joint back into place with nothing but basic tools and a whole lot of patience. Those were my dad’s hands.

TSTP 92- Enter the Storm

A blizzard has swallowed Hawkins whole, and the gang is more fractured and in more danger than ever before. In “Enter the Storm” (Chapter Seven), Darrell and Addi break down one of the season’s most intense and emotionally charged episodes yet.

SILY 700- Mountains of Meatloaf

Have you ever looked back at a season of your life that felt like a total waste? The season left you with feelings of frustration and regret? I’ve been thinking about that a lot lately, so you know I had to write a SILY about it.

SILY 655- Lessons in the Waiting

SILY 655- Lessons in the Waiting

Jean-Jacques Rousseau famously said, “Patience is bitter, but its fruit is sweet.” He’s right. Patience is bitter. As I look back on those times now, I see so much growth that happened in the waiting. Jean-Jacques Rousseau IS right. Not only is patience bitter but its fruit is truly sweet. Those years between buyer and director shaped me and prepared me for my future. The skills I acquired, the relationships I fostered, and the person I became during that time ended up making me uniquely qualified and prepared for the next phase of my career. 

S4E9 Enemy of My Enemy

S4E9 Enemy of My Enemy

We are joined by a friend (or are they an enemy of our enemy?) this episode, Keilly, as we discuss this great episode of Fringe! We discuss the callbacks to previous seasons and episodes that we love; tip our hats to great performances from cast members such as Jared Harris, John Noble, and Orla Brady; and so much more!

SILY 654- No Apology Needed

SILY 654- No Apology Needed

Unlike the annoying barn swallows occupying my porch, my son has flown from the nest never to return. He’s spread his wings, experienced the freedom and independence that comes with that stage of life, and he is perfectly content to navigate those waters on his own. He knows full well that we were just a phone call away and less than an hour away if we are needed, and that he can reach out to us for any need he has. I was not ready for this. It bummed me out and made me sad. One day it was hitting me especially hard. I was super proud of him and his independent spirit, but I was missing my boy. In that moment of reflection, I realized that I’d done the same thing when I was his age.

SILY 653- Loudest Person in the Room

SILY 653- Loudest Person in the Room

Today’s story is pulled from a television episode that aired 25 years ago. However, its claims about the Bible are ones that I still see being used often today, and the very scene has been making the rounds on social media this year, which is why I decided to address it on this podcast. It’s easy to see why the Old Testament laws can be confusing and hopefully it’s easy to see why I’ll be devoting an entire episode to this topic. What we see in this clip from the West Wing is not an example of putting someone in their place. No, what we see in this clip is what plagues our culture. That is, Biblical illiteracy. In fact, this clip demonstrates Biblical illiteracy from both President Bartlet and Dr. Jacobs. 

S4E8 Back to Where You’ve Never Been

S4E8 Back to Where You’ve Never Been

We are going back to where we’ve never been (or have we?) this week as Michael London of Fringe Connections joins us again to discuss this pivotal episode of season 4! We talk about how we have been feeling about this season vs. how we felt back in the day, discuss the references to The Wizard of Oz, Walternate’s shift in character, and much more!
