December 25th, 2024  |  1 hr 24 mins

Action-packed episode brings disagreements apparently! Though we both had a great time watching the episode itself, it turned out, we have watched a sligtly different thing. Lina focused on new information, while Vero reveled in trying to read old scenes through new eyes.

Episode 152: TAOT Dirk Gently S1 E06

December 11th, 2024  |  1 hr 45 mins

This is a junky one because for the first time this season, we are actually disagreeing on things! And if you listened to our older stuff, you know what that means - lengthy debates...
But also there is a lot happening in this episode, many questions are raised, Vero draws some curious conclusions that Lina tries very hard to not comment too obviously on, and a lot of direct lines are quoted because awesomeness.

With the first half of the season done, Vero is finally able to answer Elijah Wood's question from MagicCon but still juggles so many other questions. Lina laments the absense of Bart but instead focuses her appreciation on Amanda and the Rowdy 3.

Join us as we ponder the possibilities of Gordon Rimmer's intentions, debate the destinies of our main four and ramble about the ramifications of acts commited in this episode.

October 16th, 2024  |  1 hr 36 mins

Everything's connected, but how exactly remains still unclear for us. Join us for detailed analysis, freeze frame frenzies and some pretty wild theories in this second episode of Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency.

Episode 147: TAOT Dirk Gently S1 E01

October 2nd, 2024  |  2 hrs 14 mins

WE ARE BACK! After some much needed rest, we are back with vengance AND a new show. We are diving into Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency, produced by Netflix in 2016!

Episode 146: TAOT The Sandman Summoning 1

July 24th, 2024  |  2 hrs 19 mins

At the end of the season, we go a bit chaotic (okay, more chaotic than usual) and wrap up everything in our very own way. Welcome to the first Summoning episode for The Sandman. Enjoy the madness :D

Episode 145: TAOT The Sandman S1E11 - Part Two

July 10th, 2024  |  1 hr 9 mins

It is time to finish the extra episode for this season, with "Calliope" and oh myyy we enjoyed this.
Join us with a bit of all the emotions, as we agree on many things, except the thirst moment obviously, or certain ways to read a scene, but all in all this was a joy to record.
What an amazing end to this season.

Episode 144: TAOT The Sandman S1E11 - Part One

June 26th, 2024  |  58 mins 17 secs

Be aware: This is only the first part of the bonus episode of season 1, Calliope will be released in two weeks. This will probably also feel quite a bit different than the previous 10 episodes.
We started this episode with very different thoughts and feelings but while talking about it, we came to see more and more parallels and metaphors in this and if we had taken them out, the actual coverage would feel incredibly disjointed.
So join us for this hour and see how we manage to bring voice blindness, cat and dog people, musicals and audioplays, communism and StarTrek into this episode.

Episode 143: TAOT The Sandman S1E10

June 12th, 2024  |  1 hr 40 mins

IT'S FINALE TIME! Strap in, it's a long one! In this episode, we mostly actually agree on things, which was a welcomed surprised, but it also comes to show how well the season ended up working. We debate Dream's development in length, Lina cries over the Corinthian and Vero blows Lina's mind on several occasions.

Episode 142: TAOT The Sandman S1E09

May 29th, 2024  |  1 hr 32 mins

Once again we did not know how to talk less. Not only because we were seeing very different motivations in various characters, but also because there simply is a lot to talk about in this episode.
So join us for some more Corinthian thirst, some Stephen Fry appreciation and some very odd agreements and disagreements between the two of us.

Episode 141: TAOT The Sandman S1E08

May 15th, 2024  |  1 hr 38 mins

In this episode, we learn much new information about Rose, Vero finally stops suspecting Lyta of treason, and Lina brings some extra covert insight, because she had accidentally watched the wrong episode in preparation.

Episode 140: TAOT The Sandman S1E07

May 1st, 2024  |  1 hr 38 mins

This is a long one, so get some tea (or something stronger) and settle in. There is A LOT of thirsting in this episode, curtesy of more Corinthian screentime, there are quite a few disagreements about various character motivations, there are some funny misunderstandings, there is the usual amount of debating incredibly important sidenotes and after a long time we finally have some language lessons again!

Episode 139: TAOT The Sandman S1E06

April 17th, 2024  |  1 hr 34 mins

The duality of this episode worked really well for us, with essentially two separate stories and two new characters introduced, we had few reasons to complain. That being said, we still found some.
