Rivertales: A Riverdale Podcast
Temporada 3
por Samuel Karie
It’s all ships on this episode despite there being a lingering comet of doom, plus we discuss Betty’s aura powers, hot Titanic takes, Big Anthony, NASA’s involvement in the end of the world, not a peep about Jason, learning about melting comets through the power of books, putting souls in a jar, apocali, and a game of Mad Libs!
It’s the big battle (questionable), and we’re all here to talk about the Holy Grail full of black goo, time bubbles, Ponytail Playtime Doll Playset, Ghost Train flop, severed heads on ice, Bingo coming in clutch, mannequin Reggie, a love story between Dr. Curdle Jr and adult Baby Anthony, the Ghoulies being a Pokemon villain team, and we ask the big question of "what's a cuck?"
In this episode we talk about the Blossoms’ body swapping saga that doesn’t make sense, the Dark Julia Roberts vehicle, Eat. Spellcast. Hate. Jughead having portal powers from reading a single book, cosmic reasons, hell mounds (?), Big Ethel Energy, pee-colored auras, and remember to never stop giving up.
In this episode Keyona finally has her breaking point, we ship Reggie’s marionette with the Julien doll, looking up foley sound effects for hidden reasons, Percival’s magic stick, Sabrina being too busy for the first two days, the four simple steps for becoming a Witchy Girlboss, how this whole series could be a prequel to the Gilmore Girls, angry DJ motions, Betty not getting into Heaven because she’s harlotting about, and a lazy phoenix metaphor.
In this episode we discuss Nana Rose having a clever solve for her own death, Veronica being in her annoying era, this episode basically ripping-off Veggie Tales, the Pop’s burger being a temptation fruit, the morality of killing Percival, an embarrassing rendition of Ladies Who Lunch, and a game where we recount all of the CW shows cancelled after one season.
We’re starting out calm before things get chaotic with some Riverdale ASMR, and then jump into the important subplot of Tabitha eating popcorn, Cheryl’s creepy painting, Keyona’s original labor anthem, including a Pirate’s Cove at the convention, Betty’s powers not coming in handy at all, Kevin having good knife-ography, Veronica’s good advice being a sign her next episode will be a complete disaster, playing the harp at car shows, how TBK won American Idol, and Sam remembers the existence of American Psycho 2 starring Mila Kunis.
In this episode we drink blue Gatorade, discuss Jughead’s hat being canonically queer, Keyona being a writer on the show, Baby Anthony (aka Baby Tooth) being the heart and soul and spirit of Riverdale, Dialysis Girl and the Boring Twins, Dr. Drank, the logic of Veronica’s trauma powers, prisoner gogo dancing, and a game of how we would spend our Veronica Dollars.
In this episode we talk about how Juniper and Dagwood should not be shipped together, more evidence the Riverdale team listens to our podcast, how hair touching can be sexual, witchcraft being an allegory for lesbianism, Coop being denied an appearance on the show, the GHOST. TRAIN… how Percival is Dark Tom Hanks in the Polar Express, Betty’s power becoming shooting good vibes, and play a game of Jughead or Emo Band.
In this episode we talk about Cheryl randomly using a Magic 8 Ball, how nothing is ever played for laughs, Penelope vanishing yet again, Archie’s irresistible butthole, Betty not using her powers, genius product placement editing, KJ Apa letting loose, Veronica girlbossing her way through her business meeting, and how if Jason knew how to crimp better Polly wouldn’t have gotten pregnant.
In this episode we talk about how logic wins, Bingo not fulfilling Archie’s happiness, looking up Percival/Kevin content, plot holes involving library books, Percival’s time traveling powers, the return of Crispy Jason, Betty using essential oils to clean her bathroom, and Glee having the best classical music.
