This week on NAFC, Gibbs and Zea recount being the most confused guests at a party. Zea’s also on a mission to get into the cookout, comparing cookout culture across backgrounds and trying to earn her honorary plate.

K-Pop Demon Hunters rears its sparkly head again—this time via Zea and their daughter Ladybug, who’s firmly team sparkle-sword. The gang also checks in on the start of the new anime season: Takopi’s Original Sin is soul-crushing, Clevatess has potential, and City: The Animation is pure chaotic brilliance.

Izzy has a harrowing encounter with a dangling spider mid-thought, but powers through as the gang dives six feet deep into this week’s movie review: Buried (2010). Claustrophobia, dread, and way too much sand.
