PodcastTitleGC13, Sophia, and Hunter start up the hype train for In Too Deep, four weeks of Steven (and not a bomb in sight). Choo choo!

Be warned: if you have managed to keep away from the Cartoon Network UK leaks (no spoilers in the link), this is an episode all about those spoilers, and what they could mean combined with the (spoiler-laden) commercial that Cartoon Network is running to promote this set of five episodes.

If you’re up to date on all of the spoilers though, then all aboard the hype train! Next stop, May 12th Station!

New episodes to begin on May 12, 2016

  • April 22, 2016

happymechperidotWell we finally have a date and a time for the end of this break in new episodes: Thursday, May 12, at 7 PM EDT.

Entertainment Weekly has the details: episodes will air weekly for four weeks, and we’ll get the party started with two episodes on May 12. There’s even a video of the commercial with some super-spoilerific teaser tidbits, so if you’ve been keeping yourself clear of the Cartoon Network UK leaks then don’t watch the video or even read too far into the article (which gives a brief overview of the video).

So we’ll definitely be there, and we are so glad that we’re getting weekly episodes instead of a bomb format. The hype has returned, and now it’s down to the last little bit of waiting.

PodcastTitleGC13 and Sophia discuss everyone’s favorite piece of Garnet fan fiction: Garnet’s Universe.

It’s fun, it’s anime, and it’s over 9000. The word “filler” might come up a lot, but it doesn’t have to be a dirty word (and remember, foreshadowing comes in many forms). Plus, it has an epic training song.

How do you remember who’s Hopper and who’s Hoppy? It might just be the great question of our time, but if you have trouble keeping who’s who straight then just remember that Garnet has trouble with their names too, and they’re her secret animal friends.

PodcastTitleGC13 and Hunter discuss Alexandrite’s debut episode: Fusion Cuisine.

It may not be the best episode ever, but it’s the one that gave us the term “mid-season pre-finale”, which has retroactively been applied to the Mirror Gem and Ocean Gem two-parter. Plus, Steven in a little bowtie. What’s not to love?

Well, Pearl did develop an incredibly strong aversion to eating, thirty-two episodes into the series. That was a little weird. Maybe someone should close the gate, lest anything happen to the pie.

Still, if this episode doesn’t get you hyped to go work on an apple farm, then what will?

Lunar Sea Spire podcast episode 81: Keep Beach City Weird

PodcastTitleGC13 does his best to discuss Keep Beach City Weird. (Hey, at least it’s a Ronaldo episode, right?)

There are some heavy things in this episode: the breaking of Ronaldo especially, but also Pearl’s observations on why humans form conspiracy theories. That doesn’t mean it’s all doom and gloom though: just because Ronaldo functions as a great stand-in for a lore fan doesn’t mean GC13 can’t wonder about what Ronaldo means for the lore.

Plus, let’s not ever forget how right Ronaldo was: it’s the Great Diamond Authority who rule the Gems. How will our diplomat save us?
