And we’re back! Sort of. This special episode of Stark Raven Mad was recorded back in August of 2013 as part of the first ever Philly Podcast Festival. We had real microphones and real people listening to us for some reason. I thought I had already posted it, but apparently not. Consider this a “lost” episode. Maybe it should have stayed that way. We will officially be back this Spring with new episodes including a look ahead at season 4 soon as well as weekly recaps of the show starting April 6th. For now, enjoy this live episode of SRM!

Joining the podcast as a sponsor going into this next season will be the Philly Improv Theater! PHIT is a comedy theater in Philly where each of us performs. In January we opened up Philly’s first full-time theater for alternative comedy in downtown Philadelphia. If you’re looking for shows we have them 5 days a week, 52 weeks a year. If you’re looking to get involved in comedy we have classes in improv, sketch, standup and more! Our spring session starts the week of 3/16 and there is still some limited availability in improv and sketch 101 classes. Email classes@phillyimprovtheater.com for more information or visit PhillyImprovTheater.com. Support live comedy!

Prodigy S02E015-20

There are six episodes left of Star Trek: Prodigy’s second season, and tonight we’re gonna binge! The pace is so unrelenting, the twists so twisty, the events so eventful, that the Prime Subjective crew decided we had no choice but to discuss this back part of season two altogether!

Khazad-damn!: ROP S02E08

In this episode of the Beacons are Lit we’re discussing The Rings of Power S02E08. This is the season finale, which means after this episode, much like the Balrog of the Misty Mountains, the Rings of Power disappears for a long period only to come back when Amazon digs too deep. The Dwarves show up to save whoever is left at Eregion, Celebrimbor tells Sauron he’s going to the bad place, King Durin goes toe to head to horn with the Balrog, Adar gets a glow up shortly before getting Jon Snowed, Elendil has r-u-n-n-o-f-t as Numenor turns on the faithful, Isildur leaves his babe behind to go back home, Kemmen continues to grow his hater base, Cirdan is nowhere to be seen, and lots more for better or worse. We’re on another break, but will return soon with our awards episodes for The Two Towers and Return of the King. Lots more planned… but not scheduled.

User Illusion 3: ROP S02E07

In this episode of the Beacons are Lit we’re talking about The Rings of Power Season 2 episode 7. We’re deep into the siege of Eregion now. Celebrimbor is living his best imaginary life, Sauron is blaming everything on Celebrimbor, Elrond putting the moves on Galadriel, Gil Galad puts on his Sunday best for battle, Adar’s kids are starting to turn on him, the Dwarves got their own problems going on, and Harfoots & the Stranger are nowhere to be seen.
