A Firefly Podcast
In the final episode of Mighty Fine Shindig, the crew look back on Firefly in a special live Q&A!
Topics of conversation: OTPs, BroTPs and NoTPs; changing our minds about River; all our favorite things and some of our least favorite; what we’d do with Firefly given half a chance; and a special Firefly trivia game!
This week, we refuse to lay down as we discuss the 2005 Firefly movie, Serenity!
Topics of conversation: the Operative is the best villain EVER, we’re surprised at all the famous lines which didn’t show up in the movie, Serenity is the tenth member of our crew, Lenore the Love-Bot and Other Stories would be an awesome children’s book, how to fight a war you’ve already lost, secret bases are all designed like Zelda dungeons, and what Mr. Universe keeps on all those hard drives.
This week, it’s the final episode of Firefly, “Objects in Space!”
Topics of conversation: Jubal Early is proto-Ultron, perceiving the substance of the thing, foot fetishes, the Shindig System, waistcoats drain your cool factor, ship-wide flirt o’clock, Simon’s nudity is directly proportional to his cool factor and he is a shirtless badass.
This week, it’s the thirteenth episode of Firefly: “Heart of Gold!” Topics of conversation: John Thomas, tinfoil buildings, the yellow-eyed demon from Supernatural, the patriarchy doesn’t know how babies work, dammit Shari, Mal and Inara should not be together, and Liz is wicked in love with Nandi.
This week, we get our hearts broken by “The Message.” Topics of conversation: boy-band sweaters, big sugary balls, Kaylee has a crush on every boy, Vinton knows how to talk to girls, space-time, all Kaylee needs is five minutes, and Jerry Lewis in space.
It’s time to take out the garbage in this eleventh episode of Firefly, “Trash!” Topics of conversation: no one was weird this week, small-to-large mittens, tattoo your ship on your hip, predicting Funko Pop figures, 1980s horror movies, Yosaffbridge, and a brief history of Belleraphon.
Guess who’s back? Back again? Niska’s back! And also Alastair Stephens. This week, we’re covering episode 10 of Firefly: “War Stories.” Topics of conversation: weirdly long chats about navels, great gifs, nobody is a person to Jayne, the Whedon desert, OddWonk Community Theatre, Wash’s purse gun, and weirdly deadly preachers.
We’re heading to the core and doing a heist! This week it’s “Ariel,” episode 9 of Firefly. Topics of conversation: heists, Ocean’s Battalion, WTF River Moments (TM), Mal is the best dad, Brian Adams, bastard mercenaries, and those creepy AF blue-handed gentlemen.
We cover episode eight of Firefly, “Out of Gas!” Discussion topics: Mal is captaining the shit out of this ship, Wash’s mustache though, Bester is a floppy-headed douchebag, Kaylee is not a whore, never let Jayne take over, and our hosts have a lot of trouble keeping up with three separate time-frames. Is it the present-present? We don’t even know.

We’re covering episode 7 of Firefly: “Jaynestown!” Topics of conversation: the Tick, Inara never has bad sex, man of faith versus man of reason, Canton is a bad smelly dirty place, hamsters is nice, and the symbol is the thing.
This week, we’re all just a little twitterpated with “Our Mrs. Reynolds!” Talking points: Christina Hendricks, Jayne’s rain stick, Christina Hendricks, faster-than-light travel and the theory of relativity, Christina Hendricks, and Zoe is acting super weird this episode, right? Oh, and also, Christina Hendricks.
