On the Pilots TV Podcast this week, we're fangs out with the cast of teen blood-sucking

melodrama Vampire Academy on Peacock, back on the beat in Nor-Nion, with James Nesby

that Royal Paddington skit on repeat since the news was announced.

Beth and I would formally like to distance ourselves from any remarks made by James or any
