Charlie Jade recap: “Diamonds”
Surprise…Charlie Jade is not a force of nature. Neither is he a man with no name. He’s flesh and blood, and filled with contradictions. Like anyone, Charlie has a past that informs who and why he is and this week we get a peak into it.

Middleman Recap: “The Boy-Band Superfan Interrogation”

MythBusters: Shark Special
It’s that time of year again. The time when a young man’s fancy turns to sun, sand, and surf.

This year, Shark…

Middleman Recap: “The Manicoid Teleportation Conundrum”
It’s pop quiz day for Middle-trainee Wendy Watson, and it starts with an emergency call to meet at the Rendevous Point. Five minutes distracted by Lacey and 15 to travel and Dubby made it to the Rendevous Point Diner out by Lyon Estates. She didn’t even need a Delorean to do it.

Charlie Jade Recap: “And Not a Drop to Drink”
That wasn’t a slow one at all, was it? This is usually the point where those of us who are fans of this fantastic show can stop promising it’ll all be worth it if you just hang on a little longer. This is the point where the newbies become converts and start proselytizing right alongside…
