Julianna and Keerstan discuss Avatar: The Last Airbender Book 1, Chapters 19 and 20: The Siege of the North Parts 1 and 2. In the season finale of the show as well as the podcast, we yet have a lot of strong emotions about a certain overprotective and underappreciated Water Tribe genius and a certain pre-redemption Fire Prince, even with them yet being so at odds up until this point. And as always, a certain tea-loving Uncle gives us all the feels right with them. Long live the moon spirit. Rot in hell, Admiral Cocksucker. __________ Credits: Modern Mythos Network intro and outro written and performed by Sean McNeilly The Ember Island Players theme Music Credit: “Secret Tunnel” by augustodiniz Album Art Credits: Photography: Nick Kizina Hair, Make Up, and Costuming: Julianna Hawke and Keerstan McGinley Editing: Julianna Hawke Hosts: Julianna Hawke and Keerstan McGinley Producer: Nick Kizina
