Episode 273: Safe, Doors & Cover

Aaron and David boldly go into season two of The Expanse covering the first two episodes “Safe” and “Doors & Corners”. Going forward we plan to cut down on the episode recap so we can get into more of a discussion earlier on. We also have a listener email in regards to our Far Beyond the Stars episode before we get into the episode discussion. Season two does not disappoint, we get introduced to a new badass Martian named Bobbie Draper. What’s her story? Is she gonna start a war between earth and mars? Will she be an unlikely ally? This season also introduces us to Christjen’s hired spy Cotyar Ghazi, and Fred Johnson’s awesome right hand woman Camina Drummer. Pour yourself a cold beverage and listen to more Expanse. Enjoy together responsibly!

Episode 271: Critical Mass and Leviathan Wakes

Episode 271: Critical Mass and Leviathan Wakes

We have arrived at the final two episodes of the first season of The Expanse, and what a journey it has been. Aaron, David, and Holly share our thoughts on Critical Mass and Leviathan Wakes, although Holly only joins the boys briefly this week. The Expanse keeps getting better and better, and we end up discussing what 10 episodes of the expanse did from a story standpoint vs. what Picard did over 10 episodes; honestly, the comparison is stark. Pour yourself a cold beverage and listen to more Expanse. Enjoy together responsibly!

Episode 265: The Expanse Dulcinea and The Big Empty

Today we expand our universe with a little Syfy/Amazon show called… The Expanse! …too on the nose? Anyway, We have a relatively short episode for you this week -which is odd because we discussed the happenings of Episode 1 and 2 of the first season, but we’re all looking forward to more! But first we discuss the news of the latest Star Trek announcement “Strange New Worlds” Captain Pike, Number One and Spock will be back on the small screen at some point. Pour yourself something hard as you embark on this new trek to The Expanse.

Episode 220: The Matrix Reloaded

Episode 220: The Matrix Reloaded

This week the Synthaholics get Loaded, and no one can seem to agree whether there is a Matrix within a Matrix, or if Neo simply has a unique connection to the A.I who enslaved all of humanity. While there are far less rabbit holes in this episode, this weeks’ episode is a bit on the longer side -much like a few of the sequences in The Matrix Reloaded! This film is packed with action and intrigue and we are all looking forward to see what is next for Neo and the team! So Jack-in, find yourself a Jack’n’Coke, and traverse The Wachowski’s imaginary world that influenced so much of pop culture and film. And please… if you’re gonna Jack Off, keep it to yourself and don’t do it on our exit!

Episode 219: The Matrix

Follow the white rabbit… Just not the A.D.D ones!  Hah.. the “Ones’”. David, Aaron, and Holly (or Detergent, Dishwasher, and Spork) find themselves outside of the Matrix this week, looking in on a world where Artificial Intelligence- or A.I, has enslaved the human race… but they’re most happy about it! …Oblivious would be the correct term. If you’ve not seen “The Matrix” you have most definitely either heard reference to it or been privy to experiencing interpretations of scenes from the film. A Classic Sci-Fi film that rocked the world with its concept and imagination. Do the other two films carry the weight of the first? We will Discuss this more as we traverse the Matrix, so stay Jacked In to find out.
