We're reviewing Brandon's Ireland vacation.

Podford ReviewJoe (Cohost)Hey. Joe here. Brandon and Vin decided to record an episode the night I had to miss our regularly-scheduled recording on account of having to take my son to the doctor. He came home with an ear infection and is doing great as of the release of this episode. I just wanted to say to you, the reading listener, that I'm a great dad, friend, and cohost and anything that the other two guys say about me on this episode is wrong unless they're being nice, in which case then they're telling the truth.

Podford ReviewThe Sun - Featuring Vin's Spilt Elote, Brandon's Hell's Itch, Jimmy BuffettWhen it comes to celestial bodies, the sun is undoubtedly one of them. But not only that, it's probably the hottest one. When you see the sun there's no arguing that it's bright and it's also most likely daytime. Is the sun too hot though? Is it too big and yellow and bright? There's a lot going on with the sun and it's about time people like us got to the bottom of what makes that big, fat, orange ball of hot tick.

Welcome to Podford Review where today we'll take a trip to Pandora to discuss our feelings on the recently released trailer for Avatar 2: The Way of Water. Editor's note: it doesn't appear there is actually a '2' in the title of the film, but I'm going to leave it because I don't want to step on Brandon's toes. It's very exciting because this time around not only are the Na'vi tall, but now it seems that they are very wet. Does being wet change how they love? Does it change how think?

We tried to reach out to Chester Cheetah for an interview, but he declined. We did not have a backup interview lined up and so our interview segment was more or less ruined, and therefore cancelled.

Podford UniversityWhen Vin Fell Down A Well"In an effort to minimize his contribution to the show this week, due to a nasty bout with the novel coronavirus, we relegated Vin to being stuck in a well, several feet away from Brandon and Joe. This created a divide just large enough that Vin's reduced role was seen as deliberate. This is the kind of thing they don't teach you in podcast school. You either have it or you don't." - The Director
