Listen "The Avatar and the Fire Lord"
Episode Synopsis
We tackle some history in this episode with Book Three chapters 5: The Beach and 6: The Avatar and the Fire Lord. Nobody can agree on how many Wiggles there are. Troy says “Zuko is finally out of the closet”(?) Katie isn’t happy with “The Beach” because characters were objectified, body-shamed and featured aging women as sight gags. Jordan feels like Lo and Li were stripped of their character in favor of spouting proverbs. Jordan and Katie are bothered that Zuko and Mai have one of the shows only romances and it drips of toxicity in this episode. Erik von Detten makes out with Azula. Zuko’s assassin is revealed to be modeled as the “Anti-Aang”. Katie questions how Roku and Sozin were friends and theorizes the whole 100-Year War could have been avoided has Sozin explored outside the borders of the Fire Nation. Katie wonders if Sozin thought he was going to be the Avatar. Troy discusses the altered relationship between Aang and Zuko after the royal lineage is revealed. Jordan waxes poetic about portraits of previous Fire Lords not named Sozin, especially one who has mustache for days.
