  • Case 07: Jaynestown
    Dec 17 2025
    Here we see the beloved tale of an absolute bastard coming to grips with the fact that his legacy of honor, heroism, and glory is a big pile of lies. 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

  • Case 05: Safe
    Dec 2 2025
    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

  • Case 04: Shindig
    Nov 22 2025
    Uh oh, it’s that one. The one with the dress! You know, Kaylee’s dress! The episode that launched a thousand (more) cosplays. Plus our man Mal reveals he’s a pretty shitty duelist (with swords) all things considered. How did we feel about this one? Is Firefly SHINY or is it HEINIE?

  • Case 03: Bushwhacked
    Nov 16 2025
    The plot thinnens as Firefly works its way through more western tropes. The court examines the Reavers, the unending charisma of the main cast, and whether or not Jonathan could hack it as an interior designer. Is Firefly SHINY or is it HEINIE? Join the GRAND JURY: www.patreon.com/shadeaux

  • Case 01: Serenity
    Nov 5 2025
    Once upon a time in the West of Space, there was a man. The deadliest crackshot this side of the Mesa Verde. Rooting. Tooting. Roping. Milking. Bricklaying. All of that cowboy shit. He was a legend. A legend of hard leather and gunslinger glory. Unfortunately, this podcast has nothing to do with that wandering stranger.

  • Case 00: Art v. Artist
    Oct 26 2025
    At last, the content faucet begins to turn and these are the first drippings. For FIREFLY we realized that the main topic we would constantly be circling was the age-old ‘can you separate the Art from the Artist’ debate. Here we try to tackle that topic first - and while SHOCKINGLY we don’t resolve that debate for all time -- this does give at least a solid summary of how we’ll attempt to approach the rest of this brief.
