Avatar: The Last Podcasters
This podcast is dedicated to reviewing one of the best TV shows of all time, Avatar: The Last Airbender, episode-by-episode, as well as its successors, spin-offs and related media. We start every episode with some "news" from the nerdy goings-on in our lives, followed by a detailed run-through of one or two episodes from the show (in numerical order).
