We've finally made it to the end as Jon and Jeff discuss book 3, chapter 21:  "Sozin's Comet, Part 4: Avatar Aang."  Will Aang defeat Firelord Ozai?  Can Zuko and Katara take down Azula?  Will everything work out in the end?  Of course it will!  What do you think this is, Game of Thrones?  Tune in to enjoy our final finale discussion in all its glory.  It's been a wild ride, thanks again to everyone who joined us as guest hosts over the past three seasons.  Can't wait to see everyone again to talk about the Legend of Korra, but until then - YIP YIP, EVERYONE!

We're at the penultimate episode of the series! Jon and Jeff discuss Book 3, Chapter 20:  "Sozin's Comet, Part 3: Into the Inferno."  The final battles begin.  Sokka, Toph and Suki take on the Fire Nation Airship fleet, Katara and Zuko take on Azula, and Aang faces off against Firelord Ozai.  Need we say more?!  Didn't think so.  Yip yip, everyone!  

Jon and Jeff discuss part 2 of book 3's 4-part finale, "Sozin's Comet, Part 2: The Old Masters."  We've got advice from past Avatars all the way to Yangchen! We've got Lion Turtles! June is back with her shirshu!  And we get the Zuko Iroh reunion we've all been waiting for.  Yip yip, everyone!

We're in the first part of the epic 4-part finale as Jon and Jeff discuss Book 3, Chapter 18, "Sozin's Comet, Part 1: The Phoenix King."  We've got beach parties!  Adorable sand sculptures! The scariest supervillain of all, controlled by TOPH! Azula losing her mind!  And it's all capped off with an epically mysterious disappearing island.  Yip yip, everyone!

We've reached the pinnacle of fun, meta episodes as Jon and Jeff discuss Book 3, Chapter 17, "The Ember Island Players."  Imagine a huge fan of the show got their fan-fic summation of the series turned into an episode. This is that episode! Need we say more? Yip yip, everyone!

Get ready, Zutara fans!  This week, Jon and Jeff discuss Book 3, Chapter 16, "The Southern Raiders."  Katara and Zuko go on a trip together!  We learn a whole lot more about what happened to Sokka and Katara's mother!  Katara faces down the monster who killed her mom!  Oh, did we mention Katara and Zuko go on a trip together?!  Yip yip, everyone!

This week, Jon and Jeff discuss book 3, chapter 15, "The Boiling Rock, Part 2."  We've got Azula in tow!  Zuko having to deal with a girl he dumped via a note!  Suki just kicking butt all over the place.  Oh, and most importantly, the meat of friendship and fatherhood.  Yip yip, everyone!

This week, it's Sokka's turn to go on a Zuko field trip as Jon and Jeff discuss book 3, chapter 14:  "The Boiling Rock, Part 1."  We've got scheming!  Broing out!  Surprise appearances!  And the quote that turned into the most popular meme of the entire series.  Yip yip, everyone!

Jon and Jeff discuss book 3, chapter 12, "The Western Air Temple."  We've got an amazingly quotable episode (hey, Zuko here!) revolving around Zuko hoping to join Team Avatar (turns out he's really bad at being good). Zuko does impressions! Combustion man returns!  And how the hell did the air nomads build an upside down temple?! They had to have gotten help from earthbenders, right?  Your guess is as good as ours.  Yip yip, everyone!

Jon and Jeff discuss book 3's "The Day of Black Sun, Part 2: The Eclipse."  Aang and friends frustrate the hell out of everyone watching!  Zuko pleases the hell out of everyone watching!  Azula lies and gets away with it!  And plenty more, but you'll have to tune in to find out.  Yip yip, everyone!

We dive back into the serious and the serialized this week as Jon and Jeff discuss Book 3, Chapter 10, "The Day of Black Sun, Part 1: The Invasion."  It's the big day!  Who cares if the Dai Li were under Azula's control, or that the Earth King told Azula-plus-twola about the plan thinking they were the Kyoshi Warriors, or that they've only got 8 firebending-free minutes to get to the Capital, take out Ozai, and escape, or that Aang CAN'T GO INTO THE AVATAR STATE - Team Avatar and friends are doing this plan no matter how bad an idea it is! Yip yip, everyone…?  

We return with a Grimm reunion as Jon and Jeff are joined by special guest host (and Jeff's fellow Grimm scribe) Sean Calder to discuss book 3, episode 9, "Nightmares and Daydreams."  From Zuko & Mai getting pampered to homicidal abacus nightmares to therapy with Wang Fire to the Appa vs Momo showdown no one knew they needed, this episode really does have it ALL.  Yip yip, everyone!  

Jon and Jeff are joined by special guest Max Marcus to discuss book 3's "The Puppetmaster."  We've got scary stories!  Scary people!  Scary mountains! Scary nails! And a new form of bending that's far too valuable to be overlooked on account of morals.  Get your nightlights ready, we've got one creepy episode to cover.  Yip yip, everyone! 

Jon and Jeff discuss book 3, episode 7, "The Runaway."  Things go from fun to frenzied when Toph goes a little far tricking some tricksters.  We've got wanted posters!  Messenger hawks!  Terrible plans!  Wooden jails!  Sweatbending! And a whole lot of nicknames!  Yip yip, everyone! 

We’ve got a big biggie this week, as Jon and Jeff discuss book 3, episode 6, "The Avatar and the Firelord."  What can you say about the most informative mythology episode of the entire series?  A whole lot, actually!  We've got wedding day cookies!  Secret hidden messages!  Crazy backstory reveals aplenty!  Friendships transcending lifetimes! And no, there are NO bathrooms in the spirit world. Yip yip, everyone!

Jon and Jeff have their coolers packed, and their sunblock and sunglasses on, ready for fun in the sand as they discuss book 3, episode 5, "The Beach." If you've been missing some familiar fire nation faces despite having been IN the fire nation the last few episodes, you're not alone. Zuko and Azula (plus two-la) are back, and this week it's pretty much all about them!  Zuko gets shirtless! Ty Lee gets thirsty! Mai gets negative!  And Azula gets...FLIRTY?!  Get your swimsuits ready!  That goes double for the feisty, elderly fire nation twins in the back! Yip yip, everyone!

Jon and Jeff are back this week to discuss book 3, episode 4, “Sokka’s Master.” That’s right, our favorite water tribe warrior is finally getting a master of his own. But can the gaang keep it together for a few days, or will his absence drown them in boredom?  How long was he actually even away? And can we please find out about Iroh's incredible workout regiment? Talk about results! All this and more as we grow ever closer to the Day of Black Sun. Yip yip, everyone!

Jon and Jeff are joined by special guest host Geo Perez to discuss book 3, episode 3, "The Painted Lady."  When Team Avatar makes their way to a Fire Nation village in the middle of a lake, they find its citizens struggling as a result of the pollution caused by a nearby military facility.  Katara steps up, shows that you don't need to be the Avatar to get down with your spiritual side (though traveling with the Avatar definitely helps).  We've got split personalities!  Purple tongues!  Our ideal hybrid animals!  And don't get us started on Sokka's schedule. Yip yip, everyone!

Another week, another episode! This week, Jon and Jeff discuss book 3, episode 2, "The Headband."  We're finally getting a glimpse at life for citizens of the Fire Nation, and it's just as horrifyingly authoritarian as you'd expect.  We've got propaganda-filled curriculum!  Wang and Sapphire Fire! Aang going all Footloose on everyone's asses!  And we finally ask the most important unanswered question of the whole series - are Toph and her parents the only characters on the show with last names?!  Yip yip, everyone! 

Welcome back!!  It's been a weird March, and boy did we miss our podcast (and you!).  Hope you feel the same!  Sadly, the season was recorded just before the announcement regarding Avatar Studios and all that entails, or else our excitement for that alone might've taken up half of each episode.  Regardless, Jon and Jeff are back for the season 3 premiere, discussing book 2, episode 1 - "The Awakening."  Aang wakes up disoriented, hurt, on a Fire Navy ship, and most surprising of all - with hair!  Oh yeah, there's a lot to catch up on.  Yip yip, everyone!
