Snowpiercer Ep 106 photo by: Justina Mintz Copyright 2020 TNT All aboard! But are you sure you really want to get on? I mean, this train can only run for about 7 years straight before it starts falling apart. Good thing the train's designer also heads up the Hospitality department. As we learned in Snowpiercer Episode 106, she's a champion multi-tasker. For an episode featuring the series' most cinematic action sequences so far, we also received a fair amount of world-building and...

Snowpiercer S1E5 photo by Justina Mintz Copyright 2020 TNT. The passengers and staff of Snowpiercer were all shocked to learn that train detective Andre Layton (Daveed Diggs) had identified a suspect in the murder of Sean Wise. Although ruthless Eric the bodyguard may have performed the slicing and dicing, Andre, shortly before his unceremonious drawer-ing, believed Lila Folgers Jr. (or LJ if you're nasty), to be the brains behind the madness. In this episode, Cat and Paul discuss what...

Daveed Diggs. Photograph by TNT How do you catch a killer on Snowpiercer? You hire a Train Detective, of course. What do you do when you actually find the killer? That's when you pull out your ice axe (I looked up what ice climbers use) and take him out! Train justice for all and order prevails, right? Prepare to Brace! Rough track ahead! Not quite justice for all. Do you think if Melanie had laid out the "vacation" in the drawers between assignments, he would have cooperated? Or solved...

Snowpiercer Ep 103 ph: Justina Mintz Image copyright TNT 2020. Last episode we witnessed the night car's various delights for up-train passengers. In this one, we saw Fight Night, an example of the depraved side of what passes for entertainment on Snowpiercer. I can't wait to see what happens next week! Maybe a car dedicated to Cirque du Soleil, except the performers are never allowed to be out of character and always have to speak French (but no one else on the train speaks French). Plus,...

Snowpiercer 102. Image copyright 2020 TNT. This episode, "Prepare to Brace," inspired the title of our humble podcast. This episode's big event, the avalanche which blew out the cow car, has made me reconsider the wisdom of train-based arks though. Ok, shoot me. When I heard that Mr. Wilford wanted a "significant arm" as retribution for the Tailies' failed rebellion, my mind went straight to Strong Boy. After all, the best-fed Tailie had some pretty fearsome guns in Episode 1. Also,...

Snowpiercer- Ep 101 photo by: Justina Mintz. Copyright 2020. When the passengers of Wilford Industries' Ark train, the magnificent Snowpiercer, hear, "Prepare to Brace", they know to expect a bumpy ride. Podcast fans and high-concept sci-fi fans, now hear this - if you join Cat and Paul on this podcast series, we'll do our best to smooth out those bumps for you. Based on a graphic novel that became a cult-classic Bong Joon Ho directed film in 2013, TNT's Snowpiercer tells its own...
