The Avatar Recycle #1 - Misogyny Saves The World (The Boy in the Iceberg)

An important note: we had recorded this episode in late May, simply because we were very excited to do so, before the death of George Floyd and the start of the nationwide protests. We will be making a full statement in The Avatar Recycle #2, but the most important thing I can ask of you is to get educated, donate (or make use of resources that allow you to generate ad revenue for free), and activate yourself as a resource in any way you can for Black lives and Black safety. Here is just one of many, MANY resources that gathers the many ways you can do so in one place: https://blacklivesmatters.carrd.co/   In addition, all of our Patreon proceeds for the month of June will be donated to the Community Bail Fund.  Thank you all so much for the ways in which you make us, as creators, proud to have you as a community, and for all the help you've given so far.  === You asked for it, you got it: episode one of The Avatar Recycle is live! In this episode, you get a quick history lesson, Homestuck references, jokes about old people, and a glimpse into our personal lives that only makes sense to longtime listeners. Eventually, we do talk about Avatar. Get your Na'vi face paint ready, nerds. === 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!
