Site news:

When you click into the show notes of an episode, you’ll find that the subject is fully “wiki-ized.” This means if you click on the title of a movie or show on an episode’s show notes page, it should take you to another page with the trailer, synopsis, and cast information for the subject of that episode, along with further links. If a show and movie is part of an extended cinematic universe, such as the MCU, DCAU, and so on, there will also be a link to a “universe” page. Give it a look!
