New episode out now! We discuss the pilot episode of Dexter, as well as some later parts of the show so mild spoiler warning! We talk about the complicated feelings we have towards the main character and whether we\u2019re supposed to sympathize with him\u2014is he a vigilante? A corrupt serial killer? Is what he does justice? Or is he ultimately wrong in his actions? We also get into the trope of the Neurodiverse Super Detective, bring up issues with causal social relationships and the false faces we wear, and discuss the sociopathy/psychopathy of Dexter via his constant narration. We enjoy the specificity and strengths of the secondary characters, and appreciate the methodical nature of Dexter\u2019s setup and process (if not the action itself). Katy has questions about the yarn budget, Carrie utilizes her bachelor\u2019s degree, Maddy reveals she routinely zones out when Katy speaks, and Mack begins a new segment called Mack\u2019s Hat Corner. We also talk about the gross but accurate depiction of Miami sweat, wonder how civil servants afford beachfront apartments, come up with new ways to handle road rage, and marvel at the pre-pandemic scenes of communal crab feasting. Enjoy!
