Elysia and Luke return with weekly coverage of a sure-to-be-epic season 3 of the dystopic scifi thriller Silo, releasing on Apple TV starting July 3. The show that put our podcast on the map (and after which it is named) returns for a third season exploring the origins of the Silo system, adapting Shift, the second book in the trilogy – and we'll be giving you both the book-reader comparisons (without spoiling ahead) and non-book-reader tinfoil hat theories about what's really going on.
*
In between episodes and seasons of Silo, join us for an in-depth dive into Frank Herbert's novel Duneand all of the adaptations of that story.
Using the most famous science-fiction book ever written as our base, we're looking at the choices made in different times by different creators: How does one adapt a story that's been deemed unadaptable – what worked, and what didn't? And how does each attempt leave a deeper understanding of this rich galaxy of politics, philosophy, and lore?
*
Also, browse our feed for our in-depth coverage of Apple TV’s dystopic scifi thriller Silo's first two seasons, from two different perspectives: book reader Elysia, and show-only Luke, with spoilers only up to the episode discussed and equivalent parts of the book.
Plus past holiday specials like the endless variations of A Christmas Carolas well as It's a Wonderful Life / Knife,The Craftfilms, and Edgar Allan Poe and The Fall of the House of Usher coverage – not to mention our coverage of both seasons of Beacon 23– Hugh Howey's other TV adaptation.

After an opening discussion of the significance and nuance of the overall story with David from the Lorehounds, where they lay the foundations for key vocabulary and themes (00:26:11), including the complexities of Paul Atreides, the balance of powers in the universe, and how the timeline of Dunerelates to our own, Elysia and Luke break down the first 10 chapters of the novel (00:48:20), the first half of Book 1 (of 3): "Dune" – just through the hunter-seeker incident.
Warning: We do spoil key plot points in this book, and certain plot points of the follow-up books. Frank Herbert front-loaded those spoilers into this opening section himself, so we're pointing them out and talking about how it all connects.

Elysia and Luke's A Christmas Caroldiscussion takes a darker turn in this lore-down between the Guy Pearce-starring, BBC co-produced 2019 version – which adds some grimer touches to Scrooge's tale – and the 1964 Twilight Zone-like variation created to advertise the importance of the UN at a time when the US and world in general were on the brink of one war and fully entering another. They'll give you all the history, psychology, and sociology you need to get more out of these two tales of existential dread.
Note: Apologies for the mic issues in this episode, but we hope you enjoy the history and psychology deep dives!

As they dissect the philosophy and filmmaking behind these movies, they also set the stage for that period of mad-scientist filmmaking, and give an overview of how the adaptations of this story have gone from there – up to a preview of the new Guillermo del Toro movie Frankenstein(2025) and Maggie Gyllenhaal's upcoming The Bride!(2026).

Elysia and Luke gather around the mics once more to continue their winter tale with this briefer interlude looking at one specific film – about Charles Dickens' life and writing A Christmas Carol.
We use that as a jumping-off point to discuss the real man: How much of the film's story is true? What else should you know about him? And, perhaps most importantly for this series... Did he actually invent Christmas? And if not, who did?
Watch out for the final episode in our 2024 A Christmas Carolhaunt, where Luke and Elysia watch some of the silliest and most beloved twists on the tale, and find out which ones we think are worth your time.
The Man Who Invented Christmas(2017) is available in most countries on Disney+ or Hulu.

How ugly could this Atreides-Harkonnen blood feud get? What was Javicco Corrino (Mark Strong's character) like in his younger years? What dangers await in the jungles of Rossak, where the school of the Sisterhood can be found? Answers, or at least teases, await.

Elysia and Luke look back on the two seasons of Beacon 23 as a whole as we take our last beacon-based deep dive (for now, hopefully) into the final two episodes of season 2: episodes 7 ("Free") and 8 ("Disintegration").
What exactly happened with Harmony; what did we learn about these characters and this world; who would we Join, Jail, or Jettison; and who is the most murderous AI of them all – we attempt to answer everything!

In this quickie intro episode to The Star Wars Canon Timeline Podcast, you’ll learn not only what all those words mean (in the context of Star Wars), but also how this podcast works – how this experiment in creating a chronological timeline amidst a chaotic release order will unfold, and what to expect from the journey.
I break down the 9 eras of Star Wars history we’re covering – starting thousands of years in the past, through weekly releases of the upcoming series The Acolyte – as well as what kinds of guests to expect, essential Star Wars timeline lingo, and how this podcast is designed for both old fans and fresh faces who are Star Wars-curious.
This Is the Way.
