The summer is winding down, which means yet another round of finales and premieres. Noel and Kate kick things off this episode with Our Week in TV, including the premieres of Patriot Act with Hasan Minjah and A Black Lady Sketch Show, the finales of grown-ish and Marvel’s Agents of SHIELD, a roundup of Netflix reality competition shows—Sugar Rush, Blown Away, and Awake: The Million Dollar Game—and Queen Sugar. Afterward, we make a long-overdue return to the DVD Shelf, with friend of the show Dais Johnston joining us to explore the influential ‘90s anime Neon Genesis Evangelion, newly available on Netflix.
