About this listen

It was a time of cowboys.

It was a time… of Space.

For the first and only time in human history, someone realized that there were some fun parallels between the American frontier of the 1800’s and the near-future frontier of planetary colonization.

The result was a tall-walkin’, funny-talkin’ stranger of a show that tore through the sleepy town of Network Sci-Fi and vanished just as quick as it arrived, leaving behind DVD box sets, a legion of dedicated fans, and more than a few nay-sayers.

At the line between law and order, where the criminal and the hero can be one in the same, the intergalactic tumbleweeds whisper a single question:

Is Firefly SHINY… or is it HEINIE?

No, not Joseph Herbert Walker Antonio Gustavo Whedon! Jayne! Jayne Cobb! Why oh why would you mix those two up? The lawslingers grapple mightily with the text -- and even mightlier with that damn song. Is Firefly SHINY or is it HEINIE? Join the GRAND JURY: www.patreon.com/shadeaux

    Wouldst thou like to live deliciously? This episode is that very witch. Surely only the influence of the one called Morningstar could have produced such a strange, rambunctious tale! Shiny? Heinie? WITCH. Is Firefly SHINY or is it HEINIE? Join the GRAND JURY: www.patreon.com/shadeaux
