Binary System Podcast #429 Return of the Sit-Rep, Take Two!

We didn’t actually plan to do a second sit-rep episode so soon. Unfortunately another gigantic event hit the US in the last week, causing a lot of uproar and basically making everyone’s lives harder.

That’s right, Netflix cancelled KAOS after only one season. It’s an unacceptable state of affairs and we demand to speak with the manager!

All kidding aside, Florida was hit by the second hurricane in the space of two weeks, which is exactly two hurricanes too many. Our parents and younger sister Hannah fared pretty well with no major damages – our parents lost power but it just got turned back on yesterday – but not everyone got so lucky, so we’re leaving up all of the charity links from the last sit-rep episode.

In addition to ranting about KAOS, this is also an episode about finales, because Kathryn finished season 1 of Star Trek: Lower Decks and the final episode ever of The Crown. And also the second-to-last episode of Mayor of Kingstown, hopefully of season 3 and not the second-to-last episode ever. You hear us, Paramount? You’re on thin ice with all the commercials you run on your paid streaming service, so we better get a season 4 or we’re gonna pen a strongly-worded letter to your supervisor.
