We may have mentioned this before, but the Binary System Podcast team loves a good time-travel story. We especially enjoy it when the writers use the side-effects of time travel to really mess with longtime fans who know that none of what’s happening is normal. (Sheriff Pamela Winchel? Michelle Nguyen is marrying Sara Sultan, the fist-sized river rock? Cecil likes Steve Carlsberg’s scones?)
After we recap the wibbly-wobbly, timey wimey story of poor doomed Frank Chen we move on to the weekly SitRep which is, well, the news of the world could honestly be a little better. (The sounds of sirens and the helicopter life-flights coming from the hospital near Elizabeth’s apartment were particularly active this week which seems PRETTY DARN APPROPRIATE.)
To distract ourselves from all of THAT, we discussed Lore Olympus for a little while, along with a bit of Penny Dreadful, a smidge of John Varley, and Kathryn’s “meh” review of the space horror movie “High Life”. The bulk of the episode was devoted to episodes 1-7 of Beastars Season 2, and if you’re not caught up then you probably better skip from minute 19:00 to 35:54 because we spoil ALL THE THINGS.

The outro music this week is a clip from Finally Free by Linn Friberg.
Corrections: According to the transcript for this week’s Night Vale episode, Frank Chen traveled to Constantinople in the year 600, not 1600. He also traveled to the year 2121, not 2021. Hi, we’re bad at time.
