Bonus Episode: Introducing Wax Episodic

Hi, Jason here. This is a special bonus episode reposted from my new podcast, Wax Episodic, where I cover top-tier, story-rich TV shows one season at a time with different co-hosts.

We’re kicking things off with Alien: Earth, and I wanted to share the first episode here so you can check it out. If you like it, please consider subscribing to Wax Episodic — it’s my new podcast home, and you can find it at ⁠waxepisodic.com⁠.

• Or just search “Wax Episodic” wherever you get your podcasts.

PS If you were drawn to the twisted power dynamics and manipulation in Squid Game, you’ll find a similar undercurrent in Alien: Earth — where shadowy forces exploit people under the guise of control and order.

Alien: Earth S1E1&2: “Neverland” & “Mr. October”

The wait is over — Alien: Earth has landed, and Noah Hawley’s first two episodes deliver everything we hoped for: suspense, grotesque alien terrors, strange new lifeforms, and a sharp look at how unchecked corporate ambition could shape our future — in a series that (at least so far) feels both classic and brand new. Join Jason, Randy, and Kara as we dig into “Neverland” and “Mr. October.”
