Another strong episode. All our characters are thinking about their legacies. What impact do short term decisions have on long term outcomes? 
Plus: Everyone needs to check out the hilarious and expertly constructed murder of the week series on Peacock, Poker Face with Natasha Lyonne.

The episode has been reposted with additional commentary and a spoiler-free review of Sick on Peacock. (33:00)
Another bleak and disturbing episode of this series although with impeccable production. But first, I discuss the loss of a series I was about to recommend and use that as a jumping off point to discuss what is happening with these streaming services. 
In recommendations, The Legend of Vox Machina. A Guardians of the Galaxy-like spoof of fantasy shows that has humor and heart in equal measure (also reminiscent of GotG) available on Amazon Prime and just back for its second season.

The tempo of the show is different so far this season which allows for a pretty effective reflection on how different people deal with their grief and loss.
