Lunar Sea Spire podcast episode 7: The Message

PodcastTitleStevenBombDakota, GC13, and Ken continue to cover #StevenBomb, discussing The Message and the possible continuation of Greg’s music career.

Also, we bring you our hard-hitting report on the #TelevisionGate scandal currently sweeping the fandom. 😉

Tomorrow we will continue our daily #StevenBomb coverage with an episode on Political Power.

Ratings for Rose’s Scabbard

It looks like not being part of the premier block has a bad impact on a show’s ratings: only 1,216,000 people tuned in to watch Rose’s Scabbard yesterday.

Considering the sudden change of time slot and it not being normal for a premier to air on any day other than Thursday, don’t expect things to be much better for The Message or Political Power. The double feature of The Return and Jail Break, however, should do pretty well.

Aivi and Surasshu post: I’m Still Here

Well it looks like Aivi and Surasshu jumped a few episodes, but we’re not complaining: I’m Still Here (1:15) from Rose’s Scabbard is just beautiful, and we’re so happy to have it online!

 

Immediate reaction to The Message

themessageAfter we saw the preview for this one we were excited to get some news, and we weren’t disappointed. If this episode hadn’t been airing during #StevenBomb we would be dissecting the implications that the message has on what Gem society is like, but as it stands we’ll probably wait until the end of the week and see what else we learn in the rest of the episodes.

But yeah, this is a juicy one. Expect the message to be mentioned in an article later this week, even if we learn more about Gem society from some later episodes.

Lunar Sea Spire podcast episode 6: Rose’s Scabbard

PodcastTitleStevenBombKen, GC13, and Dakota kick off our daily #StevenBomb coverage with a discussion of Rose’s Scabbard.

How do immortal beings cope with the loss of a loved one? What was the deal with the pyramid temple in Serious Steven? Pearl: threat or menace?

Be sure to check back daily as we cover the previous day’s episode!

New episode: Open Book will air on March 19, 2015

Just because we’re getting a #StevenBomb doesn’t mean we’re going on a hiatus just yet; we’ve still got  a few more episodes to go yet, and Open Book will air on March 19, 2015 at 5:00 PM EDT. This is one of the three episodes that were shifted from season one into season two. Don’t miss it!

Open Book
Steven and Connie want a new ending to a beloved book series, so Steven takes them into Rose’s Room to re-enact it..

Immediate reaction to Rose’s Scabbard

stevenbomb2Well, they certainly started #StevenBomb off with a bang. We won’t be doing full writeups for each episode until after the week is done, but we’ll still be doing these short immediate reactions.

Rose’s Scabbard gave us some excellent history lessons (the kind of stuff we just eat up) and a very good look into Pearl’s character. What more could we ask for in an episode?

We know a bit more about the rebellion now, though the pyramid temple from Serious Steven is just as mysterious as ever.

Lunar Sea Spire podcast episode 5: Marble Madness

In thPodcastTitlee fifth episode of the podcast, GC13, Ken, and Hunter discuss Marble Madness and the impending #StevenBomb.

Peridot: cute bureaucrat or cutest bureaucrat? Will Pearl gain the secondary title of crab mom, or is she simply being dramatic? Why is the homeworld returning now? Is there a point in dancing around a (spoiler warning) new character’s name if you’re just going to say it later?

Be sure to tune in tomorrow: we’ll be recording and releasing podcasts daily for the duration of #StevenBomb, and we’ll be back at the regular time next week as well for an episode discussing the event as a whole.

Aivi and Surasshu post: Defective

What better way to start off #StevenBomb than with a track posted from Aivi and Surasshu? Today we get Defective (1:28) from On the Run.

Song of the week: Peridot

Our little show stealer has done it again: she’s swooped in at the end of another episode and given a great performance. Well of course her theme, simply named Peridot, is this week’s song of the week, as #StevenBomb begins and Peridot’s influence is felt further as we wait to see what happens after she reports the Crystal Gems.
