Episode Summary:
As punishment for his recent "cows incident," Agent Pot Roast is exiled to the desolate outpost of Chora Beach—a place that sounds serene but hides a nightmare beneath the sand. Instead of soft waves and sunsets, Pot Roast finds an ocean of corrosive acid water and dunes crawling with unseen threats.
The once-bustling observation station is now abandoned and failing, its automated systems left in the unreliable hands of Axiom, a glitching virtual assistant with questionable motives and eroding sanity.
Worse still, Pot Roast discovers he's not alone. Deep within the compound, two additional prisoners await—isolated for so long that they have no assigned expiration date and no clear memory of their original mission.
What exactly is Chora Beach meant to contain... or protect? And how long can a mind survive in a place designed to erase it?
Dive into this tense, surreal chapter of Magnetar—where punishment blurs into existential horror, and freedom may be the deadliest illusion of all.

- Eric Carlino as Agent Pot Roast

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
