TAR #17 - The Mysterious Skywalkers (The Northern Air Temple)

Donald Trump slowly shrinks and transforms into a corn cob. Ben's mother humiliates him in front of the host of Nickelodeon's Slime Time Live. David crushes his own mother's dreams of being a showbiz mom. Mary roasts her dad's exceptionally dadly qualities. And on Avatar, some kid has to cope with the fact that his dad is in bed with the fantasy reich. That's right, it's an episode all about the trials and tribulations of family relationships. (And moreover, Donald Trump losing.)   ===   First, deep apologies for how late this episode is coming out. I (Mary) was moving this past week, and between packing and everything else time and energy to edit was tough to find. But I'm all moved now and ready to handle anything!   Second, there will be no new episode this coming Tuesday/Wednesday. This is because, at this same time, Ben is ALSO moving! And his move is cross-country, so he'll be out of commission for a bit. We'll be back on the 24th/25th with more Avatar Recyclin' glory!    Click here for the new mammal: https://static.ffx.io/images/$zoom_0.5264930890388942%2C$multiply_0.7554%2C$ratio_1.776846%2C$width_1059%2C$x_815%2C$y_492/t_crop_custom/q_86%2Cf_auto/t_smh_no_label_no_age_social_wm/5114876b9ee480c7a51f1e558846da6e39af8cbd    Click here for a reinvention of Homestuck: https://twitter.com/ahhcherontia/status/1325230604749860865?s=20   Click here for the context on the corncob bit: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EmQtP1tW8AALzTh?format=jpg&name=small   ===   Here are some of the best resources at hand right now to educate yourself, donate/generate ad revenue, and protect Black lives and Black safety:   https://blacklivesmatters.carrd.co/   Homeless Black Trans Women Fund -    https://www.gofundme.com/f/homeless-black-trans-women-fund?utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=p_cp+share-sheet   ===   Follow us on Twitter at @super_nuclear, or send us your feedback at supernucleargroup@gmail.com !

Remember the cartoons you loved as a kid? Do you, like us, remember mid-2000s Nickelodeon and Cartoon Network with a mix of fondness and terror – or, if you don’t, do you want to know what the fuss was about? Join Mary, David, and Ben as we revisit the cartoons that shaped us in an episode-by-episode deep dive, as well as the Internet fan culture as it was then and is now. How do these nostalgic shows hold up? What do we think of them now, as not kids but sad adults? How has the zeitgeist and Internet following evolved along with us? We set out to answer these questions and also to be incredibly hilarious and physically attractive. We started in 2017 with Return to the Past: A Code Lyoko Retrospective, which ran from 2017-2019 and makes up the first part of this feed. Second was The Ultimate Reprise, which ran from 2019-2020 and covers Oban: Star Racers. Now we’re on The Avatar Recycle, hot on the heels of Avatar: The Last Airbender’s Netflix debut! Join us wheresoever you like. Watching along is not necessary - but highly encouraged – and we try to keep spoiler free up to the current episode!
