THE FANDOM ZONE 282: "Science/Fiction" Is Up!

 
"So, you're traveling to a place that doesn't exist anymore. It's equally impossible, and therefore it's something you might be able to do."
"Sure, excellent. Yeah. Makes total sense. Doesn't sound like science."
"No, but it does sound like fiction."
-- A.D. Doug and Loki Laufeyson, Loki -- "Science/Fiction"

Hello again, everyone! We're back for another new episode of The Fandom Zone Podcast!  This time, DJ Nik and I discuss "Science/Fiction", the fifth episode of Loki Season 2, featuring Tom Hiddleston as Loki Laufeyson, Owen Wilson as Mobius M. Mobius/Don, Sophia Di Martino as Sylvie, and Ke Huy Quan as Ouroboros/Dr. A.D. Doug!

In this episode, DJ Nik and I talk about things like Nik rocking his Inter Milan jersey, some comics background on Verity Willis, some real-life background on Frank Morris and the June 1962 Alcatraz escape attempt, Loki's worst nightmare, Loki needing a sense of belonging, Sylvie narrowing Loki down on his main issue, Mobius being a loser jet-ski salesman named Don in his real life outside the TVA, why Mobius is reluctant to return to his real life, Casey's surprising revelation that he was an escaped convict from Alcatraz in real life, Ouroboros being a failed science fiction writer in real life, my sympathy for A.D. Doug trying to sell his science fiction books, A.D. Doug becoming obsessed with creating a prototype TemPad, my offer to ghost write the real-life versions of A.D. Doug's books, why Sylvie remembered Loki when none of the TVA staff did, Sylvie helping Loki achieve his big psychological breakthrough, the great sequence of Sylvie listening to "Oh! Sweet Nuthin" by the Velvet Underground, Loki returning to the moment just before Victor Timely becomes spaghettified, my theory that Loki will become the next He Who Remains, Loki potentially having a new way to relate to Thor, our favorite quotes of the episode, Nik joining me on Next Stop Everywhere to discuss the upcoming Doctor Who 60th Anniversary specials, hoping the Loki Season 2 finale sticks the landing, and more!
