About this episode
This week, Da7e and Neil are fighting off visions of mutant babies as Welcome to Derry kicks off its first season on HBO. In The Calm [05:22] , they discuss the first episode and the double meaning of calling it "The Pilot." They attempt to figure out what the air force is really doing in Derry and tally up the fears of the new cast of Losers. Then in The Storm [01:04:18] , your faithful hosts dig into the "Weeks Ahead" trailer and consider how Dick Halloran, his special gift, and America's position in the Cold War will factor into the rest of the season's plot. Next week, Welcome to Derry drops its second episode a few days early on Halloween (Friday, 10/31), which means Storm of Spoilers may be back in your feeds a little early, as well. Also next week! If you're in Denver, you can join Da7e and his Fighting in the War Room co-hosts Katey Rich and Matt Patches for a live podcast recording with the organizers of the Denver Film Festival on Tuesday, November 4th!
