Summary

The Expanse returns this week, much to Terri and Boyd's bemusement - but don't worry, James is on hand to Beltersplain everything as needed. We also dive into Amazon's new pseudo-Lost show, The Wilds, and embrace a little festive cheer (kind of) with the Euphoria Christmas special. All that and a rather unexpected discussion of late stage capitalism, some thoughts on additions to established ensemble casts, and Terri inadvertently trigger's the Pilot TV podcast's new security system, much to her chagrin.

connected to the great and powerful at every conceivable level.

1:04.4

It's Mr. Boyd Hilton. How you do, Boyd?

1:06.4

I'm doing fine, thanks. I mean, I actually have watched the expense and I still don't understand what that means. Excellent. And with us both is someone who I would most closely tie to Earth's
