Send us Fan Mail

Welcome to the Mercy of Pods, a podcast that is normally about The Captive's War by James S.A. Corey, but today we are covering The Churn, a novella in the Expanse series, also by James S.A. Corey. This episode is spoilers for the entire Expansiverse!   

In this episode:

• We cover the origin story of everyone's favorite babygirl sociopath, Timothy Amos Burton
• Brigid details her affection for Timmy and his amiable smile.
• Clint waives his tiny Erich Rules flag and yammers on about criminal procedure rights. 
• Lydia's choice to stop Timmy from killing Erich is contrasted with her, uh... other activities. 
• We talk about sex, baby. 
• We talk about you and me. 
• We talk about all the good things and the bad things that may be. 
• Also we engage in wild speculation about counterfactuals.
