episodes
- episode 1: pilot
- do you enjoy podcasts where good friends discuss bad tv?
- are you someone who has watched gotham (tv) and has a love-hate relationship with it, or someone who has not watched gotham (tv) and would like to learn some deranged facts?
- are you intrigued by the idea of a show that can’t decide if it’s a grim police procedural or a campy supervillain romp? a show that combines characters i want to put in the microwave with ideas that make me throw my hands in the air and say HOW DID YOU EVEN THINK OF THAT??
- have you heard that kirby and i are beautiful geniuses?
- you may enjoy Jim Gordon Must Die: episode 1
- this podcast contains discussion of portrayals of police violence, gun violence, and domestic violence, and how they are handled (badly). on a lighter note, it also contains the backstory of how i live-texted kirby all of season 1 of gotham, a show she had not watched, in the immediate lead-up to having a mental breakdown and going on leave from undergrad.

- We discuss S1E2 of Gotham, 'Selina Kyle'. Also we get substantially sidetracked by a DC comics wiki page.
- episode 3: cryptocurrency hater jim gordon

Content warnings: brief discussion of death by fire and eye trauma.
