In this episode of Avatar State Radio, Kev and Mike continue their journey through Avatar: The Last Airbender. Kev struggles with the names but sees redemption in Sokka. They discuss the Water Tribe’s defense being left to teenagers and how Zuko and Sokka share overconfidence—perhaps just teenage boy traits.The duo reflects on Aang’s childlike desire to ride animals while being the world’s savior. Mike breaks down Aang’s fight with Zuko, while Kev questions if bending was more common before the war. They explore what determines who can bend and what element they control, with Mike teasing that answers are coming soon.Mike’s trivia reveals that earth bending wasn’t originally part of the show’s concept, and the Fire Nation, Air Nomads, and Water Tribe were all inspired by real-world cultures. Kev checks in on how he’s enjoying the show so far.Find MikeTellest.com | Twitter @tellest | Facebook @tellestbooks | Twitch @ThatTellestGuy | Etsy | PatreonFind KevThatNerdyKev.com | Starbird Media, LLC | Everything is Awesome | @ThatNerdyKev on TikTok, Twitter, Instagram, Threads, TwitchFind Avatar State RadioAvatarStateRadio.com | Apple Podcasts | YouTube | AmazonOur intro music is The Voyage by Audionautix, licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license.https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/Artist: http://audionautix.com/
In this first episode of Avatar State Radio, Kev and Mike dive into Avatar: The Last Airbender (Season 1, Episode 1: The Boy in the Iceberg). As Kev experiences the show for the first time, he shares his impressions of Sokka’s rough edges, Katara’s strength, and Aang’s shocking discovery that 100 years have passed. Mike explains bending and debates whether it’s a skill for the few or the many while they question Uncle Iroh’s true nature and Zuko’s impulsive decisions.Kev quickly falls for Appa, Aang’s love of penguins, and the quirky animal mashups. Mike drops trivia about Zuko and Iroh being late additions, Katara’s original name, and Dave Filoni’s involvement—though Kev might have spoiled that fun fact! Together, they embark on this rewatch, with Kev loving the show already.Find MikeTellest.com | Twitter @tellest | Facebook @tellestbooks | Twitch @ThatTellestGuy | Etsy | PatreonFind KevThatNerdyKev.com | Starbird Media, LLC | Everything is Awesome | @ThatNerdyKev on TikTok, Twitter, Instagram, Threads, TwitchFind Avatar State RadioAvatarStateRadio.com | Apple Podcasts | YouTube | AmazonOur intro music is The Voyage by Audionautix, licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license.https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/Artist: http://audionautix.com/
