POC: A Supergirl Podcast - Episodes 608, 609, and 610 We’re back with Supergirl episodes 6x08, 6x09, and 6x10! There’s so much to discuss and so little time left in the series! /episode/index/show/podoffcourse/id/20541641

POC: A Supergirl Podcast - "Fear Knot" 07/31/2021

POC: A Supergirl Podcast - "Fear Knot" We did a live stream of a Q&A for Supergirl Season 6, episode 7, “Fear Knot” forever ago and I’m (Shelley) just now posting it as a podcast. We initially combined this with episodes of Batwoman as well, but for listenability I’ve edited it by show the best I could. You might hear us talk about Batwoman (a show you should be watching) or our other podcast, Red Hairing (a podcast you should be listening to), just think of it as subliminal suggestions and jump on those trains. /episode/index/show/podoffcourse/id/19990514

POC: A Supergirl Podcast - "Prom Again!" 05/15/2021

POC: A Supergirl Podcast - "Prom Again!" We discuss Supergirl 6x06. Brainy and Nia’s adventure in 2009 Midvale concludes with a playlist full of bangers and some very cute moments. Rules of time travel be damned, we’ll still accept this episode as a fun one. /episode/index/show/podoffcourse/id/19116101

POC: A Supergirl Podcast - "Prom NIght!" 04/30/2021

POC: A Supergirl Podcast - "Prom NIght!" We discuss Supergirl 6x05, a beautiful blast from the past complete with bat tricks, plot holes that we’ll forgive, Kree, twinkle lights, cute superpower reveals, and, of course, Dolly Parton. We stuck with the live format this time, so let us know what you think! /episode/index/show/podoffcourse/id/18922538

POC: A Supergirl Podcast - Episodes 3 and 4 04/30/2021

POC: A Supergirl Podcast - Episodes 3 and 4 In our first live recording, we discuss #Supergirl 6x03 and 6x04. We’re not sure how to feel about Nyxly, we need so much more Alex and Kelly, and Brainy and Lena are giving us life. Also … Alex (and Lena) needs help with her alcohol dependency like yesterday. /episode/index/show/podoffcourse/id/18918272

POC: A Supergirl Podcast - "A Few Good Women" 04/15/2021

POC: A Supergirl Podcast - "A Few Good Women" We discuss episode 6x02. Be warned: we’re pretty upset about Alex telling Kelly about Kara off screen and the Lex of it all, but there were still some positives! We ponder the possibilities of the Phantom Zone storyline and look forward to the rest of the Supergirl season. /episode/index/show/podoffcourse/id/18743885

POC: A Supergirl Podcast - "Rebirth" 04/05/2021

POC: A Supergirl Podcast - "Rebirth" For Supergirl’s sixth and final season premier, we go back to our roots and cover the episode chronologically. We discuss whether Alex’s new weapon is cool or a cop out, how gay Lena and Kara’s interactions were (very), and how painful that ending was. Also … can they please be more careful with the Fortress? And how did Kelly not know? We’re so excited about this season and can’t wait to see what’s to come! /episode/index/show/podoffcourse/id/18599993

POC: A Supergirl Podcast - "Fight or Flight" 10/25/2020

POC: A Supergirl Podcast - "Fight or Flight" In this episode, we discuss Supergirl Season 1, Episode 3, “Fight or Flight”. We also talk about the, recently announced, final season to our beloved TV show. Our hot take is that Cat has known Supergirl’s secret identity from the beginning and you should try watching it through that lens. We delve into the physical properties and melting point of lead with DIY info, because why not?!? /episode/index/show/podoffcourse/id/16538519

POC: A Supergirl Podcast - "Stronger Together" 09/21/2020

POC: A Supergirl Podcast - "Stronger Together" In this episode, we discuss Supergirl Season 1, Episode 2, “Stronger Together”. We also try to answer the important questions like - how do boats actually transport oil? How does women fashion work and are women’s pant usually very tight fitting? Are you afraid of snakes? I don’t think we actually answer any of them definitively, but we have a good time trying. There are some outtakes after the outro. /episode/index/show/podoffcourse/id/16087094

POC: A Supergirl Podcast - "Pilot" 09/10/2020

POC: A Supergirl Podcast - "Pilot" We decided we didn’t want to wait until 2021 to talk about Supergirl, so we are doing a Supergirl Season 1 rewatch! We weren’t podcasting when Season 1 originally aired, so we thought we would take advantage of the hiatus and talk about the episodes from our favorite season of the show! In this episode we discuss Supergirl Season 1, Episode 1, “Pilot”. /episode/index/show/podoffcourse/id/15954146

POC: A Supergirl Podcast - Episodes 517 and 518 We’re changing things up this episode! Life demanded our attention and got us behind in recording and editing. So to get new episodes out as soon as possible, we doubled up and during this show we will be talking about Supergirl, season 5, episodes 17 and 18. We will be reading listener feedback and sharing our reactions to the episodes right along with words of our listeners. Thank you for your patience and for sticking with us! /episode/index/show/podoffcourse/id/14541236

POC: A Supergirl Podcast - "Alex in Wonderland" 03/31/2020

POC: A Supergirl Podcast - "Alex in Wonderland" In this episode we discuss Supergirl Season 5, Episode 16 “Alex in Wonderland”. They finally came back to the Jeremiah story and *SPOILER ALERT* he’s dead. Alex’s coping mechanisms aren’t great so she retreats into the nightmarish hell scape she visited last episode, virtual reality. While in VR she lives out her dream of being Supergirl and rocks the best wig Supergirl has ever used. We get to see one of Margot’s hobbies, collecting comatose people stuck in VR, but it makes her smile, so we’l /episode/index/show/podoffcourse/id/13789685

POC: A Supergirl Podcast - "The Bodyguard" In this episode we discuss Supergirl Season 5, Episode 14 “The Bodyguard”. Supergirl is tasked with being Andrea’s bodyguard from an unknown entity that is trying to kill Andrea. The only thing that suffers in the attacks is the integrity of the structure of the Catco building. Seriously, do they have extra insurance on their elevators? Kara makes a questionable decision that we think is based on a trope that has been used ad nauseam. We also briefly discuss the power wielded by fishnet stockings. /episode/index/show/podoffcourse/id/13615286

POC: A Supergirl Podcast - "It's a Super Life" 03/03/2020

POC: A Supergirl Podcast - "It's a Super Life" In this episode we discuss Supergirl Season 5, Episode 13 “It’s a Super Life”. Supergirl's 100th episode blew us away! It was funny, intriguing, devastating, and inspirational in all of the ways we know Supergirl can be. We see characters from seasons passed that we have missed and some that we haven’t missed, but they turned out to be not so bad in this episode. Erin cleverly gives each reality a name. The names are all Lena centric, because why wouldn’t they be? /episode/index/show/podoffcourse/id/13395401

We also talk seriously about the discourse in the Supergirl fandom over the last week. /episode/index/show/podoffcourse/id/13050947

POC: A Supergirl Podcast - "The Bottle Episode" 01/28/2020

POC: A Supergirl Podcast - "The Bottle Episode" In this episode we discuss Supergirl Season 5, Episode 10 “The Bottle Episode”. So many Brainys! Yet somehow, not enough. We LOVE Brenda Strong and hope she is here for the rest of the season. Kara decides the truth is the best road - it only took her 4 years. We try to wrap our heads around alternate time lines. Wtf is Lex really up to? Whatever it is, we think Lena is a step or two ahead of him. /episode/index/show/podoffcourse/id/12916844

We also briefly discuss Rama Kahn and his attempt to destroy National City. /episode/index/show/podoffcourse/id/12709322

Lena FINALLY airs all of her secret ex-best friend business to Kara and we will never be the same. Other things happened and other characters were in the episode, but let’s get real, you know what everyone was talking about! /episode/index/show/podoffcourse/id/12198272

POC: A Supergirl Podcast - "Confidence Women" 11/19/2019

POC: A Supergirl Podcast - "Confidence Women" In this episode we discuss Supergirl Season 5, Episode 6 “Confidence Women”. We get a lot of Andrea’s background this episode. We are into Lena and Andrea’s history even if SO MUCH of it doesn’t make sense. There is a lot of platonic jumping that occurs in their “relationship”. Did anyone else recognize Lena’s mother? /episode/index/show/podoffcourse/id/12098234

POC: A Supergirl Podcast - "Dangerous Liaisons" In this episode we discuss Supergirl Season 5, Episode 5 “Dangerous Liaisons”. We question the outfit cost and choice of almost everyone on the show.

POC: A Supergirl Podcast - "Blurred Lines" 11/03/2019

POC: A Supergirl Podcast - "Blurred Lines" In this episode we discuss Supergirl Season 5, Episode 3 “Blurred Lines”. Kara makes really bad decisions in her efforts to support Lena. As a friend. Because that’s who you break into a military base and steal for. Friends. We see J’onn not learn from his past, when he finds out he wiped his brother from he and his father’s minds, by asking Nia to forget what she saw. Kelly is too kind and open to others and it almost gets her killed. /episode/index/show/podoffcourse/id/11885861
