What is your legacy? In the wake of Matthew Perry's passing, Alex the Rebel and Andrew the Saint look to the 1990s (and 790s) for wisdom on forming a personal legacy. Plus, tune in for a fresh batch of hot takes, including which Austen film adaptations are best and what Jack Skellington can teach us about evangelism.

  • Notable Mention: Sense and Sensibility (1995), Armageddon, Corpse Bride, Emma (2020), The Nightmare Before Christmas, F•R•I•E•N•D•S, Baby J; Beowulf: A Translation and Commentary by J.R.R. Tolkien; Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing: A Memoir by Matthew Perry
  • Assigned Reading: Leaf by Niggle by J.R.R. Tolkien
  • Editor's Notes: Alan Rickman is also in Sense and Sensibility. Watch it. | The Old English word for fate/doom/etc. is "wyrd." | Yes, Andrew pronounced Cynewulf wrong. | Tolkien proposed that there were real historical roots to the characters featured in Beowulf, though they had taken on a larger-than-life status in myth. His retelling of the "original myth" in Sellic Spell is an entertaining version that ties the story even closer to fairytales. -Andrew
