In this episode, we talk about Avatar: The Last Airbender. Toph-Sarah Calls everyone “twinkle toes” and invents metal bending, costing her one perfectly good (now mangled) microphone. Katara-Sam delivers a sisterly sermon making us all want to be better people (or else!). Sokka-Dean initiates an epic haiku battle, only to have victory snatched away by a single syllable. And Zuko-Daniel gives the whole group and warm hug of redemption.

Cast

Hosted by Dean Karpowicz, with Daniel Morbach, Sam Alberth, and Sarah Willis.
