Welcome back, listeners! It's good to ben on this bender with you once again!

On Air Bender 17: Zuko Painbow
Max and Dale have a grand task in front of them this episode, that of discussing all the finer points of the season one finale of Avatar: The Last Airbender. So of course Max immediately derails into dirty Grinch memes.
Dale gets them back on track, though, so they go through every silly, scary, romantic and amazing twist and turn in this awesome piece of television. So press play for an epic tour of the two-part finale "The Siege of the North". It's a long one! (...Mr. Grinch...)

On Air Bender 16: Non-Bending Hands
Brrr, it's cold in here! There must be some Waterbenders in the atmosphere! This week, Max and Dale discuss the A:TLA episode "The Waterbending Master", full of romance, mystery, and outdated sexism. They riddle over the physics of a city made of ice and Max drops a big mea culpa about name pronunciation.
It's a chilly-yet-cozy episode, so grab a mug of cocoa and snuggle into some earbuds, dear listeners!

On Air Bender 15: Yak Gak Run!
Max and Dale are back to discuss the Avatar episode “The Northern Air Temple”, so this episode basically just consists of Max getting all hyped up about battle sequences. They do find some time to opine on the corporate influence of Nickelodeon, then Dale lists every animated movie he’s ever heard of. It’s a hoot *AND* a holler!

On Air Bender 14: Little Fire Benders Everywhere
This week, Max and Dale discuss the episode "The Deserter". They chat about best practices when panicking on stage and the ecosystems of the elements, and they are reminded that we owe the world our wisdom. It sounds a lot deeper than it is, listeners. Maybe nurse a beer with this one.

On Air Bender 13: Insult Me Further, Mistress
This week, Max and Dale dive into the Avatar: The Last Airbender episode "Bato of the Water Tribe". They talk about epic martial arts, sitcom tropes, and fathers leaving. They even invent a little Star Trek spinoff they'll be taking to CBS for pilot season! Wouldn't you love to be a fly on this wall?!

On Air Bender 12: The Invincible Hindentanic
Max and Dale try to fight the future this week, with the A:TLA episode "The Fortuneteller", which of course leads to some lamenting over the patriarchy, some theorizing about the education system of the Water Tribe, and even a Naruto reference. Then they nerd out over DuckTales and The Dragon Prince. I don't think anyone could predict this would be such a rich, full episode!
