This episode of the Gettin’ Close with Me podcast features Philly’s Aubrie Williams! Aubrie has been involved in Philly comedy for several years now. Two of her most recent projects have shows coming up. The first is Goat Rodeo whose Disnyy Froozen will be ending its run at PHIT with a show on Thursday and Friday of this week at 9:00 p.m. The other project is none other than ManiPedi (seen above in a photo by Erin Pitts Photography). A group that’s been a stop for many great female sketch comedians in Philly. They recently won the Philly Comedy Awards for Best Live Sketch and Best Sketch Group. Their next show is coming up on Thursday, Februrary 12th with Gaper Delay opening and Friday, February 13th with (friend of the podcast) Brendan Kennedy’s Big Time Hollywood Sketch Show opening. It was a fun chat with Aubie. Enjoy it.

Speaking of the Philly Comedy Awards, I didn’t walk away empty handed! Stark Raven Mad: A Game of Thrones Podcast actually took home the gold. Next on the podcast will be hosts of the show, Aaron Nevins and Kate Banford. We’ll talk about the ins and outs and highs and lows of the show as well as the upcoming Five Dollar Comedy Week.

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.
