About this episode

The episode covers various TV shows including Chief of War, Survivor Australia, and Peacemaker season 2, along with discussions on their merits and entertainment value.

We’re back with a stacked lineup of TV talk from around the world (and a couple alternate dimensions). First up, Jason Momoa storms onto Apple TV+ with Chief of War, a sweeping historical epic that has us wondering if “Game of Thrones with boats” is actually a lot better than we gave it credit for. Then it’s over to Survivor Australia, where the gameplay is bigger, messier, and somehow more intense than the U.S. version. We make a detour to Traitors Ireland, the latest international spin on the reality deception format, and then check back in on The Paper, the Office sequel we were braced to hate but might… actually kind of like? James Gunn returns with Peacemaker season 2, bringing back John Cena’s violent manchild for another round of heartfelt chaos, and we finally take a look at Netflix’s Wednesday season 2 and see if everyone’s favourite goth icon holds up to scrutiny. All this plus tangents, rants, and a lot of chat about Muppets!
