favorite moment

So it’s Thursday, and we are somehow already over halfway through the month of July. Damn. But, on the bright side, today, I get to briefly discuss my favorite prophetic moment from Battlestar Galactica! I say briefly because I have to be at work in, like, two hours, and I haven’t taken a shower yet.

Taako has so many memorable moments, courtesy of Justin McElroy, that it’s difficult to pick just one. From his “abraca-fuck you!” to his previously mentioned reunion with Kravitz, it really does seem like it’s a nonstop barrage of hilarity and/or poignancy. I mean, mostly hilarity because he can’t stay serious for more than a few

Out of the boys, Merle is my favorite. Sure, I adore Taako and Magnus, and it does seem like Merle isn’t the most consistent or prominent of the three. He doesn’t have the same type of tie-in story as the others do, with Taako and his sister, Lup, and Magnus and his path to discovering

Magnus Burnsides, the protection fighter, was definitely my least favorite of the Tres Horny Boys at the beginning. Maybe it was the bravado or maybe it was Travis McElroy’s delivery, I can’t really be sure. He played him well, understanding the initial core of his character – “Magnus rushes in” – but it just seemed

Today is a special one because not one, but two birthdays are going on: my loving father and my surprisingly zippy, eleven-year-old bulldog, Zola! And because today is what it is, I am going to be quick about today’s challenge. After all, how am I supposed to celebrate the births of two of the greatest creatures on

Prequels are a bitch to do. It’s tricky balancing out pre-established canon and adding suspense to a story where you know the characters survive. But then Griffin upped the ante and changed from D&D rules, using a whole new game that was based off Powered by the Apocalypse, which honestly? I loved. It had its

“The Suffering Game” was … rough to listen to. Griffin even apologized at one point for how much shit he was putting Magnus, Taako, and Merle through, and even though I didn’t read the Reddit, I’m fairly certain it was rife with complaints and frustrations. As a listener, I was, for lack of a better

I tend to pick fairly humorous or lighthearted bits for my favorite moments. I mean, this is a comedy podcast, so they really do try to keep things amusing for the most part, especially in the beginning. But as the series progressed, some of the best moments were heartfelt, even incredibly deep moments that just

I really do like so much of the “Crystal Kingdom” arc, but I constantly forget it exists, kind of like when I try to list the names of the states but can’t remember Delaware, for some reason (also South Dakota … somehow – I remember North Dakota, though?). It’s such a good story with a
