In this episode of The Strain podcast: we talk about the adventures of Gus and Felix, how awful Eph's wife is, and how Abraham needs a partner.

We discuss the events in The Strain S1E5 including Regina King running in those heels, whether or not we can trust Jim, and Bolivar's delivery service.

This one was a tough one, ProFans. Halfway through recording we found out about the passing of Robin Williams. The Leftovers isn't what you'd call a feel good show as it is, and the death of someone who brought so much joy and entertainment  to so many didn't really inspire us to be our usual silly selves. But still, we finished and we hope you enjoy listening to us talk about what was, honestly, a good hour of television.

Kevin gets a visit from Lori; Tommy takes Christine to the hospital after a strange encounter; someone steals the baby Jesus from Mapleton's nativity scene. 

In the best episode of the final season thus far, Pam and Eric team up with Sookie, Bill, and the others to pull off a rescue attempt at Fangtasia. 

Something deadly has landed at JFK Airport and it's up to a CDC field team and a holocaust survivor to try and stop it from taking over the whole city.

On this week's Game of Thrones podcast we discuss eunuch love, Sansa's transformation, and the heartbreaking trial by combat. We also reference Good Times... a lot.

We're finally publishing the rest of our House of Cards S2 coverage, recorded in February. Here we discuss the events of episodes 9 thru 11.

Friends and enemies work together to stop a threat against the president. Huck finally tells Quinn what he wants. And Eli brings the work of B613 to Pope and Associates.

There were so many things wrong with this episode: Mandy's belief that she was wanted by Lily, Claire's decision to leave her son to return to the drama, Ryan going all rogue (again), and the fact that Carrie still exists. 

Daenerys approaches Meereen, Arya gets revenge (and a pony!), Joffrey taunts Jaime and Cersei denies him, and Oberyn Martell arrives in Kings Landing for the royal wedding.

In this episode, Caleb continues to be creepy and doesn't offer up any answer (or questions), Marty gets the Langston family tomb opened, people in the community shun Jacob, and Maggie confronts her mother's lover, who is hiding a secret of his own. 

In this episode, we are reminded by the show is called Scandal. No one is clean. There are no innocents. Jake steps into the role of Command by doing what it takes to protect the Republic. Also, Sally's exorcism doesn't quite take. 

In this episode, Ryan gets special permission to go all covert ops on dat ass. Mike continues to give zero fucks. And Joe shows Micah how true manipulation works, and Micah doesn't even know it. P.S. Nina hated this episode. Meghan and John did not. Lots of cussing ensued.
