1×10: TEDxSteiner

Back in the '90s, I was in an obscure Sense8 reeeeeeecap podcast! That's right, it's time for Crappy Medium to recap the most Bojack Horseman-like episode of Sense 8 yet: Death Doesn't Let You Say Goodbye. Along with a whole lot of mopey Lito missing his lost love Princess Caroline *ahem* I mean Hernando, we ask some important questions including whether elves need tampons and why Bratz Dolls don't have feet. We also do a bit of research to find out whether Jamie Clayton has a tattoo and only end up finding out what zodiac sign Nathan Lane is. Enjoy!

1×09: El Caido-Jack Horseman

It's time to start crying at the Wawa while you listen to our intrepid hosts recap Sense8 episode 8: And We Will All Be Judged Something Something Long Title Why Wachowskis Why. We get some new names for the sensates (among them Glistening William and Catfish Van Damme) and finally learn what El Caido means. Plus, Julie pours one out for her homies!

1×08: Kenyan up with the Kabakas

Riding leathers, prison panties, and a whole lot of unnaturally scripted villain monologues litter this recap of Sense8 Episode 7: WWNDD. You'll learn what word can best replace "trunk" in your daily life and just who is allowed to claim ownership of other people's genitalia (spoiler alert: no one). All that with a side of unnecessary profanity!

1×07: Orange is the New Bak

In a fresh and sexy recap of Sense8 episode 6: Demons, Julie & Julian go deep into the extended Netflix universe, creating fan theories galore about what other shows might be concurrent with Sense8 and which of the Cluster most closely resembles Jerry Gergich (hint: sweats a lot). They also discuss whose genitalia might be secretly psychic and try their darndest to ruin avocados for everyone.

1×06: Sweaty Will VI: The Sweatening

In the most digression-heavy episode to date, Julie & Julian discuss Sense8 episode 5: Art is Like Religion. We get some good honest talk about Nantucket elephant weddings, Hamilton remixes, and how to pronounce "yarn skein" (we still aren't fully sure.) We also give a fair amount of incidental women's health advice, so stay tuned for that if you've always had questions but you're too afraid to ask! 

1×05: Are You There God? It’s Me, Lito

What does a human vape look like? Is Moby feelin' the Bern? Why didn't the film Tusk feature Zooey Deschanel? These and other pressing questions are answered as we cover Sense8 episode 4: What's Going On. We also learn about important  things such as Julian's classic style of broom humor and the meaning of the word "puths" (we dare you to guess).

1×04: You Can’t Scissor-Kick Lung Cancer

It's episode 3 of Crappy Medium in which we cover (surprise surprise) episode 3 of Sense8: Smart Money is on the Skinny Bitch. Our intrepid hosts analyze such diverse topics as the all-zebra paleo diet and Korean owl spirits that might just be Ken Jeong, all while braving the depths of Will Poreski's veritable ocean of constant sweat. Plus we get to hear impressions including Julian's awful Trump and passable Bernie along with Julie's shockingly accurate Morgan Freeman.

1×03: Kickin’ Ass and Eatin’ Zebras

The second installment of Crappy Medium, in which our intrepid heroes discuss Sense8 Episode 2: I Am Also A We. We delve into the illustrious worlds of spontaneous Bollywood dances, Will's gangsta days, and the fact that even the most evil of mad-scientist-doctors knows how to use people's preferred gender pronouns (@Nomi's mom). More importantly than all of that, we discuss the first appearance of everyone's favorite bespectacled bearded love interest HERNANDOOOOOO.

1×02: Hernandooooooo!!!

We kick off the Crappy Medium Podcast with a recap of Sense8 Episode 1: Limbic Resonance.
