We are joined by the GSM Podcasts legend Geoff (xforce11) this week as we discuss this myth-alone episode midway through season 4 – “Making Angels”! We love the interactions between the two Astrids as well as between Foelivia and Walter but also touch upon some minor issues with the writing.

We are looking at this episode of Fringe from a forced perspective, but it’s kind of nice that it’s just the two of us for once! Even though this episode is mostly a standalone episode, it’s still a really beautiful episode with a great wraparound.

We are joined by Erin for this episode as we discuss the episode “And Those We’ve Left Behind,” or, as Darrell calls it, “The Stephen Root Episode.” We talk about why this episode remains so memorable to Fringe fans and how the magic of Stephen Root and Rosy Rosemont being a couple in real life adds to the authenticity of their performances in this episode!

It’s just us this episode as we take on “Novation,” Peter’s first full episode this season. We reflect on some of the theories that we had back in the day about who was behind the Shapeshifters 2.0 (one of which was surprisingly quite… valid) and how we felt vs. now feel about Peter’s (sort of) return to this timeline.
