Summary

For their interpretation and discussion of ATLA’s “The Fortuneteller,” Janet and Dante are joined by their pal, the talented and wonderful Evanna Lynch (“Luna Lovegood” from the Potterverse)! Discussing Aunt Wu’s approach to fortunetelling (Cloud-reading! Osteomancy!) leads to some personal anecdotes about seeing psychic advisors IRL; everyone celebrates the introduction of the brilliant Jessie Flower/Michaela Murphy to the Avatarverse (pre-dating her role as Toph, she plays Meng in this episode!), and Evanna proves herself to be just as compassionate, thoughtful, and delightful as you could ever hope she’d be.

0:00.0	Hello friends, benders and non-benders alike. Welcome to Braving the Elements Nickelodeon's
0:24.6	podcast about all things avatars. I'm Janet Varney. And I'm Dante Bosco. Today we're back to
0:30.4	book one of the last airbender talking about episode 14, The Fortune Teller. And we are so excited
0:37.3	to be covering this episode with some help from a friend. This is someone that both Dante and I met
0:43.5	separately at different conventions years ago. And it was I have to say a real case of everyone
0:48.6	fanning out over each other because we love her work and what she is doing out in the world.
0:53.5	And she happens to be a fan of Avatar and Cora. Ivana Lynch, Evie Lynch, what's going on?
1:00.1	No, I'm just the biggest avatar nerd. I just love you guys and I'm so excited for friends,
1:06.4	you know, it's that kind of thing. Janet, I remember meeting you at one of the conventions and
1:11.4	I find conventions quite stressful because it's a lot of people. It's a lot of energy. And then it
1:15.5	was my friend Robbie who's also an avatar fan. Of course we're talking about Robbie Jarvis
1:20.3	who plays Young James Potter Harry's dad in the Order of the Phoenix. He was like, that's the Avatar.
1:26.4	And then I was like, oh my god, I've been in my little shell not talking to people and I almost missed
1:31.6	talking to Avatar Cora. And that was just like a profound life lesson. Stop missing opportunities,
1:37.1	connect with people like you did Dante. You came up to me at a convention and like if I had been
1:42.9	my way of being in my little bubble, I would never have met. No, I was very nervous meeting Evie and
1:48.2	Robbie who are both in the Harry Potter world. And I actually was sending over my handler at a con
1:54.5	to get a picture for myself. And then they sent back that they were fans of Avatar. And so we
1:59.9	ended up having dinner that night and became really good friends with what the funny thing is
2:04.0	they show me this painting. Yes, of course. This is painting. And I think you painted it or
2:10.5	Robbie did that much. There's a picture. I painted it. There's a picture of Evie as a firebender.
2:16.6	And Robbie as an airbender. And I went, oh, you're that kind of fan. Wow. Super fun. No, I did
