  • One Hundred Twenty-fourth Episode

    Episode Number: 124

    Pendant just had another birthday! Can you believe it? It actually happens every year, yet somehow we always forget. Typical. Congratulations to the entire cast and crew of "Mage and Machine" on completing a stellar first season! We've got another new assistant director, a very special offer for Pendant fans with Serial Box, and your exclusive first preview of "Genesis Avalon: Patriot!" And Jordan and Kathryn Pryde discuss fun teenagers, growth, and being the Cher of Pendant. Join the virtual party!

    Big changes! Well, one big change. For one of us, but not so much for you. We talk assistant directors, hiatuses, and our release calendar through the end of 2021! We've got previews for The Pendant Shakespeare's "Troilus and Cresssida" act V part 2, "Mage and Machine" episode 1x08, and "Seminar" episode 94, and Jordan and Emaline Tuck discuss cliffhangers, avoiding work, and Nathan Fillion! Our mic might be a little too hot for us to fix society, but that won't stop us from trying.

    The Pendant Shakespeare's 100th episode is only a few weeks away! How cool is that? (very) We're playing a bit of Director Shuffle, and there's a good amount of dereliction of duty 'round these parts. We've got exclusive preview clips of The Pendant Shakespeare's "Troilus and Cressida" act V part 1 and "Mage and Machine" episode 7, and Jordan and Dan Foster discuss Marilyn Manson, being V. O. Curious, and closets full of emotions!
