[Percolation Nation] June, 2021

Why miss out? Subscribe to our blog via E-Mail!


Welcome to our 19th Percolation Nation! This blog highlights our ☕Ko-fi backers' generous contributions for the month of June, 2021! ICYMI, we detail the benefits of supporting us on Ko-fi in our first-ever Percolation Nation.

If you like what we're doing, want to join us during our recording sessions, and/or (at least) want to pick up Early Access to our Unedited Episode/Interview Recordings, head over to our Ko-fi page and just follow us (by creating a Ko-fi.com account). Watch our intro video, view our funding goal (currently: self-sufficiency), and scroll through the feed to see who's backed us. Ultimately, you are going to want to check out the posts section to view all the supporter-backed content you're entitled to when you join the nation! When you see something you want access to, just buy us a ☕coffee!

🏚House-Keeping:

  • Not much going on here, and there's a reason for that; Dave is in the midst of moving into his and his wife's new apartment. They are officially home owners! ...which means they are extremely house poor! In times like these, more than any other time, your support leaves a tangible impact on the comings-and-goings of this podcast. We are humbled in your faith in us and are emboldened by your participation.
  • Wondering where the Season Finale coverage is, for Fear The Walking Dead's 6th season? See the previous point: although we have all our talking points prepared, we haven't had the chance to even sit down and record! Dave has been maintaining the state of his mental health during the move-in/mostly packing process. A lot needs to be done before the Cameos can move into their new place, among them duct cleaning (completed), floor polishing/finishing, walls painted, both former and new dwellings cleaned, and belongings packed and moved into the new space.
  • Hold the phone: I haven't even gotten to the best part. With @BlazyGardener's help, we were able to score an interview with none other than JD herself, Jenna Elfman! Unfortunately and unlike previous interviews, we won't be having a supporter-backed audience during the recording due to both time and moderation constraints. We will be asking whether we can make the unedited interview recordings available to our supporters! Keep you posted on that!

This episode really exhibits both the distinctions and the dark mirror parallels many of our characters have with one another, which has sincerely allowed us to take their totality into account. Should our characters be simpler? Should our heroes be super and our villains lean in? Tell us what you think!
The unedited episode is a RIOT: between the spicy pre-show, the massive amounts of expounded upon facts that were edited out during the recording, as well as the short but sweet post show, why not download a copy while supporting the podcast you know and love? Click here:
David Cameo:
Rachael Burt:
  • Watch Dave React to this episode:

  • We resign ourselves to love the complicated nature of our characters: they keep us guessing.
  • Why we don't bother discussing obvious points/Easter Eggs and giving credit where credit is due.
  • Speaking of credit, how about Brian Castrillo being 1000% correct with his predictions about Riley and the other Naval Officers on the U.S.S. Pennsylvania joining the enders?

  • SSBN-735 (on Riley’s shirt) designation of USS Pennsylvania.

  • @blazygardener freaking out Michael Satrazemis with her LOST parallels (among other memes)
  • Why isn’t Morgan Jones covered in guts/blood after escaping the walkers? The undead sub-crew is surprisingly clean, too. 
  • Morgan is trying to spare Grace Mukherjee the blame of the missile launch.
  • Annoyed with Morgan's pity party: mimicking John Dorie Sr (parallels). 
  • Leaning into villainy: if Dakota can do it, so can you, Victor Strand.

  • Strand is doing it for everybody? Does it matter if (he thinks) that's true?
  • Strand's envy: People follow Morgan because they want to, not because he owes them anything.
  • Victor is a lot like Gamma/Mary (from TWD): an erstwhile villain found the right people, first, and found the potential to become a hero.
  • Characters we love (to hate) and why we want them to stick around: contrasting Victor's and Negan's sins.

  • Morgan is alone at the dam at the start of the episode: like June Dorie's last goodbye at John's Cabin, it feels like he'll never see it again.
  • Where are the rest of the dam residents (Nora and all the office building dwellers, etc)?
  • Morgan & Victor have the goods on one another.
  • Quotable Characters making Questionable Decisions: our next podcast idea.
  • Comparing/Contrasting Victor to Dwight: Even D has done some pretty horrible things.
  • That satisfying moment Dorie Sr finally has over the radio with Teddy Maddox.
  • Thinking about the bleached bones (skelehorse/skelerider) from TWD 10x19, One More that could be Victor on horseback (if you want to hear our discussion of that episode, head here, to [Episode 123])
  • Radioactive walker was a member of Teddy’s flock, but what was her purpose?
  • Radioactive material may have leaked out of the missiles, rendering them less potent. 
  • Walter (Sub-ewski, Emile's victim from the start of the season) obviously had a crisis of conscience, with respect to his shipmate/mutiny-mate, Riley, and The Enders' ultimate plan.
  • A lesson(?) in body decomposition inside an airtight(?) submarine.
  • Season 4 parallel: 150 crew members reminds us of the signs indicating the number of walkers posted by The Vultures.
  • Where will the nukes hit? Ginny’s franchises? Dakota most-likely revealed, to Teddy, the dam settlement's location.
  • This episode allowed us to understand Dakota a little more, by way of comparing her actions to the actions of others (like an M.C. Escher painting).

  • Sarah Rabinowitz & Daniel Salazar giving us humor (giving us life).
  • Letting Teddy & Riley go would tell our group where not to go or where Alicia Clark might be. Can’t really blame Riley and the Enders for Athena’s death.
  • Mutually assured destruction: Morgan and Strand.
  • Happy 15th Birthday Alexa Nisenson, we recorded on your birthday! And big ups to Maxine from the UK, who joined us for the recording!
