We are so excited to finally be talking about this phenomenal episode of Fringe – the highly anticipated episode in which we finally get the story of how and why Peter was abducted from the Redverse. When last we left our heroes, Olivia’s “glimmer” ability kicked in just before she and Peter went on their very first date, leading her to realize that Peter is originally from the Redverse. Walter pleads with Olivia to not tell him, and in this episode (which features a fun, synthy ‘80s rendition of the theme music), we are taken back to 1985 as Walter sits down with Olivia to tell her the story.

The Disney parks are arguably the most popular and successful theme parks in the world, but the question is, why? What makes these parks stand out among the others to make them so popular? In this episode, both Blake and JJ are discussing their reasoning for why they believe Disney parks stand out amongst other theme parks similar to them. They discuss cleanliness, Disney’s properties, their technology, and some more specific reasons.

Do you love fan theories as much as we do? If so, this episode is for YOU! The internet is full of fan theories about Disney films, so we decided to choose a few of them and share whether or not we think they could be true. Is Boo from Monsters, Inc. the witch from Brave? Do all the Pixar movies take place within the same universe? Did Nemo and Moana actually die near the beginning of their respective movies? Does Magara become Mother Gothel? Is Jaffar the true hero of Aladdin? We tackle these theories and MORE in this week’s episode!

Before They Were Famous Part 4
Podcast: Play in new window | Download (Duration: 1:46:39 — 61.3MB) | Embed
Many Hollywood legends spent time in The Twilight Zone, and this month we look at two of the largest legends in Hollywood history with Robert Redford and Dennis Hopper. Redford’s season 3 appearance with Gladys Cooper has him portraying the role of the death angel escorting her character to the afterlife. Meanwhile, Hopper’s season 4 role is one of an angry young man under the influence of Hitler, who is raising up his own all-too-familiar brand of hate. It’s easy to see in these performances what will make these men legendary, and each of these stories gives us a lot of meat to chew on for discussion.

S2E14 Jacksonville

We have finally arrived where Fringe is arguably at its absolute best, a block of episodes that even the showrunners referred to as a “rollercoaster.” Olivia’s Cortexiphan ability comes back into play in this episode when she travels to the titular Jacksonville, Florida where the Cortexiphan trials took place. She must confront fear on so many levels, ultimately temporarily saving the day but making a horrifying discovery.
