Hello, lovely listeners! This week, Mal and crew are up shit creek due to some mechanical failures (don’t blame Kaylee). In fiction we are trying to survive and doing an… OK job. In reality, this is one of them “flashback episodes” where we get vignettes about how Mal met his original crew.Thanks for listening!
Well, Actually… – Firefly S01E08 – Jaynestown
It’s episode 8 this week, folks! Sing it with me:
“He robbed from the rich and he gave to the poor. Stood up to the Man and he gave him what for. Our love for him now ain’t hard to explain. The Hero of Canton, the man they call Jayne!”
Thanks for listening!
Interchangeable Christinas – Firefly S01E07 – Our Mrs. Reynolds
This week, Captain Reynolds and Mrs. Captain Reynolds (Saffron) deal with a rocky first day of matrimony. Partly because the good captain doesn’t 100% remember getting married, partly because Saffron keeps kissing and/or kicking the crew. But, hey, every marriage takes a bit of work, ya know? Thanks for listening!
Straight Up Kablowed – Firefly S01E06 – Safe
Time to learn a bit more about the renegade siblings, Simon and River! The brother/sister genius duo find themselves kidnapped this week by a town of folk needin’ a doctor. Which is pretty chill, all things considered. Unfortunately, the chill doctorin’ turns into a witch trial quicker n’ you can slap a cow. Thanks for listening!
ASMR+PCRC – Firefly S01E05 – Shindig
Howdy listeners! I wish we could give you a vague overview of the main plot for this week’s episode. Unfortunately, though, none of us were there. Mal got cut by a sword and Kaylee got a sweet pink dress. Something about a duel? Anyway, the rest of us had a pretty uneventful time on the ship playing “cards” for chore coupons. Thanks for listening!
Not Today, Monday – Firefly S01E04 – Bushwhacked
Welcome aboard, listeners! This week we go on a spooky salvage mission. Turns out it wasn’t engine trouble after all. The alliance is snooping around us snooping around, and they have some pointed questions. Thank goodness Wash is there to clear things up. Thanks for listening!
Grab That Booty! – Firefly S01E03 – The Train Job
This week on Firefly Mal and the crew do one of those classic “train jobs” you hear so much about. I wish I could tell you some fun specifics, but we watch the show in kind of a weird way. All we know is that the moral grey of the job got a little too real and the crew is about to make some powerful enemies. More than we already have. Thanks for listening!
Ear Necklaces are Your Forte – Firefly S01E02 – Serenity Part 2
Hello and welcome to episode 2 of Firefly! Larry the Lawman is being a real jerk and gets tossed. Jane pushes the boundaries of him and Mal’s work/friend relationship, Book has a crisis of faith, and River wakes up in a strange metal box. Luckily, we have a great pilot who can fly this ship under duress, because we are definitely under duress. Thanks for listening!
Literally Dating Myself – Firefly S01E01 – Serenity Part 1
Hello and welcome to episode one of Firefly! This week the gang all slap cowboy hats on their heads and make for The Black as they explore this new universe. Well, the conscious ones do anyway. Adventure awaits anyone with a good crew, a reliable ship, and a job that pays. Thanks for listening.
