It took two, maybe two-and-a-half months longer than everyone else, but the Binary System Podcast team finally watched the final episode (ever?) of Arcane: League of Legends. Ten out of ten. No notes. Of course it takes us an entire episode to go into detail about why we think this episode was the perfect way
T. Kingfisher’s latest book is a Regency(ish)-era fantasy in a world of stately mansions, butlers and ladies maids, hunting parties and society balls, best-selling books on how to have impeccable manners and, yes, magic.

Wow, we’ve got a real rhythm going with these posts! We’re back again this week to discuss the second-to-last episode (ever!) of Arcane. What can we say about this show that we haven’t said before? It’s beautiful, it’s terrifying, it’s powerful, it’s violent. We finally get the backstory on what’s been happening with Mel, but

Yes, yes, of course Decibel Jones and the Absolute Zeroes saved the world. But what have they done for us lately? It’s New Year’s Eve! Time for one more quick review of a 2024 book (gotta pad those review numbers y’know). And what a book. The first book in this series, Space Opera, was a
Happy Holidays from the Binary System Podcast team! Our present to everyone this year is an extra-long episode, because there is just so much content. The final season of Beastars dropped while we were looking the other way, so we have to talk about the first episode and how this season seems to be tackling
