Binary System Podcast #450 – Beastars and Star Trek: Lower Decks

Episode 450! That’s…kind of a milestone, right? To celebrate, let’s do the same thing we’ve been doing for a few weeks now! First up, Beastars Season 3, episode 10. This episode merits a trigger warning, since we finally get to see what led to Legoshi’s mother’s death, and it’s pretty heartbreaking. There’s also a brief

Binary System Podcast #448 – Beastars and Star Trek: Lower Decks

The episode of Beastars that we recapped this week isn’t quite as unsettling as last week’s episode. That civet cat is still off-putting and weird, but my goodness do the animators do an excellent job with Yaya’s animation. The team that animated that zebra in the noodle shop, however, can go sit in a corner

Binary System Podcast #447 – WTNV #263 “Hysteria Land”, Beastars, and the Oscar Nominated Animated Shorts

On tonight’s recap of Welcome to Night Vale we learn that Night Vale’s newest attraction, Hysteria Land, is not an amusement park, it’s a theme park. And the theme is “amusement.” We’d argue that the theme is also “existential dread” and “impossibly frightening.” Arms inside the ride, kids, watch out for the dead animals. After

Binary System Podcast #446 – WTNV #262 “The Man Who Is Not Tall”

“That’s a good question.” “Thank you!” “It’s best to not ask questions. Especially good ones.” If the title to the Welcome to Night Vale episode sounds familiar, we’re seeing the return of a harrowing duo from Night Vale’s past: The Man Who Is Not Tall, and The Man Who Is Not Short. And unfortunately The

Binary System Podcast #444 – WTNV #261 “Brought To You By Flakey O’s,” Beastars, and Lower Decks

Welcome to Night Vale is back from hiatus this week so we’ve gotta talk about the Flakey-O’s employees as they celebrate their return from a Season of Unstoppable Churning Death. (Otherwise known as corporate takeover.) Totally understandable that they’d want to cut loose for a bit, and what’s a little grave robbing among friends? After

Binary System Podcast #439 – WTNV #260 “The December Monologues”

Happy New Year everyone! Hope everyone’s 2025 is already shaping up to be calm and stress-free and completely absent of any kind of drama. This week’s recap is actually way late, but we’ve got to get through a whole month of Welcome To Night Vale being on hiatus, so why not wait until January to

Binary System Podcast #434 – WTNV #258 “Swap Meet,” Arcane, and Ren Faires

Night Vale’s holding its first-ever Swap Meet this week, and the Sanitation Department wants to make sure you follow all the rules: there’s no money of any kind allowed, tangible and intangible swaps are encouraged, and Faustian Deals that cost you your immortal soul? Those are perfectly acceptable, go talk to the demons in the
