Kingdom Hearts (As We Understand It)
Jon, Matt, and Bran are joined by Bran's brother Anthony to discuss the Kingdom Hearts series of video games. The crew does their best to navigate the insanity of a dozen games, pour through a hundred characters (each with their own nobodies), and explain the convoluted story that we love to be totally confused by, while completely understanding it at the same time.
In the end we chose either Xehenort, Riku, Donald, or Sora as the best character in all of Kingdom Hearts 1, 2, and 3...and Dream Drop Distance...and Birth by Sleep...and 358/2 Days...

Community: The Old Show about Old Shows
Matt, and Jon are without Bran, but they're joined by friends Jeff Mack and Lou (via call) to discuss one of the best written comedies ever, Community. Abed, Troy, Dean Pelton, and Ben Chang made the final cut, but who is the most essential, funniest, and overall best character in six seasons of Community?

I also tell you all what you've got to do to view the elusive Community movie.

Futurama

Game of Thrones (A Game of Too Many Characters)
With Matt out sick, Bran and Jon are joined by guests Erica and Michael (Curry) and forced to discuss Game of Thrones without being trolled once. Did they remember to introduce the guests? Not a chance. Did they explain that Curry sounds different because he is connecting from a different city? Unlikely. They did, however, wade through countless well done characters in both the Game of Thrones books and show to crown one the best character of them all.
Listen in as they mourn the quality of the show's final seasons, realize that dragons aren't actually real, and pick almost none of the fan favorites to be the "best" character.
