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 695- Sweetness is Coming

SILY 695- Sweetness is Coming

When he was only 16 years old, C.S. Lewis had his first vision of what would become the land of Narnia. Just a mental image. A faun carrying an umbrella and parcels in a snowy wood. That’s it. That’s all he had. I recently had a dream about a mason jar full of honey. And when I woke up, I had to immediately write it down. We won’t be visiting anything like Narnia today. There are no fauns, no packages, no lions, no witches. But I do hope this leaves you inspired in its own way.

TSTP 86- Welcome to Hawkins, New Kid

TSTP 86- Welcome to Hawkins, New Kid

Hawkins, Indiana never stays quiet for long, and in the dead of winter 1985, it’s already getting weird again. Darrell and Addi are diving headfirst into Stranger Things: Tales From ’85, the brand-new animated spinoff from the Duffer Brothers and showrunner Eric Robles, set between the events of Seasons 2 and 3 of the original series.

SILY 694- The Third Mind

SILY 694- The Third Mind

In October of 1883, a boy was born in a one-room cabin in southwest Virginia. His mother died when he was just nine years old. By thirteen, he was writing for his father’s newspaper. At twenty-five, his business went bankrupt and his wife divorced him. He remarried in 1910, launched various ventures, and kept grinding through failure after failure. Then, in 1925, he wrote a book that coined a phrase and introduced a concept that would quietly change everything.

S5E4 The Recordist

S5E4 The Recordist

Although Chris didn’t join us this week (he had some behind-the-scenes undercover work to do with Anil), Darrell and repeat guest and frequent feedbacker ShelkyBean are here to share their thoughts on this episode of Fringe! Also sharing their thoughts on “The Recordist” are some phenomenal Fringe feedbackers like Rory, Anna (not Torv), Erin, and Geoff (xorce11)!

SILY 693- Make the Call

SILY 693- Make the Call

I’ve made it no secret on this podcast that I am a super fan of the TV show LOST. I love the mysteries, and the beautiful setting. I love the way the character stories interweave, I love the lore and history of the island. There are a lot of poignant moments and pieces of dialog that still echo in my mind today. But perhaps the most tragic line ever spoken in the series was, “Something tells me he never got around to making that call.”
