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.

Intentionally Disturbing
Join me on this podcast as I navigate the murky waters of human behavior, current events, and personal anecdotes through in-depth interviews with incredible people—all served with a generous helping of sarcasm and satire. After years as a forensic and clinical psychologist, I offer a unique interview style and a low tolerance for bullshit, quickly steering conversations toward depth and darkness. I honor the seriousness while also appreciating wit. I’m your guide through the twisted labyrinth of the human psyche, armed with dark humor and biting wit.
