Episode Four: Don't Kill Bill
Manage episode 302618294 series 2977122
Inger, Megan, Anitra and Narelle continue their episode by episode forensic examination of 'The Chair'. This time we're examining episode four: 'Don't Kill Bill'.
We're joined for this episode by Dr Bertha Chin, senior lecturer from the Swinburne University of Technology in Sarawak, Malaysia. Bertha ups our intellectual heft as a scholar of fan studies and Fandom - and huge David Duchovny fan (he even inspired her to do a PhD in the first place!).
We enjoy a lot of Bill and Ju Ju time in this episode, although we also find time to sympathise with Ji-Yoon struggling with leadership, Yaz struggling with The Establishment (in the form of Elliot) and Joan letting loose her rage at students who write crappy evaluations.
(some of the sound in this episode is a bit crappy too - apologies. We are all in locked down suburbs, even in Malaysia, and all the neighbours are in lockdown watching Netflix too...)
