Episode 39 - The Sarah Connor Chronicles: “Ourselves Alone“
Welcome back to NO FATE! On this SEASON FINALE episode, Michael & Tanner round out our 4th podcasting season by covering the groundbreaking TSCC episode “Ourselves Alone,” a real game-changer for the series as it nears its close. Though we’ll be taking a break for a bit, never fear! We discuss everything from the episode—namely Cameron’s arc, the sharp tension, and everything with Riley—and so much more. For those waiting for Tanner’s commentary on the Super Bracket Bros “T-800 vs Punisher” episode, it’s finally time! All this and more as we wrap up this season… But don’t worry, we’ll be back!

Episode 38 - The Sarah Connor Chronicles: “Some Must Watch, While Some Must Sleep“
Welcome back to NO FATE! On this edition, Michael and Tanner continue their coverage of Season 2 of TERMINATOR: THE SARAH CONNOR CHRONICLES with the episode “Some Must Watch, While Some Must Sleep.” The guys are a bit all over the place here as they reminisce on the ALIEN and PREDATOR franchises for a bit, but never fear, they return to the TERMINATOR universe shortly. As they cover Sarah’s dual plotlines, her relationship with John, and some interesting John/Cameron moments, they mostly gripe about how this episode would’ve worked better if the roles had been reversed. Hot take: this might be the worst episode of TSCC to date.

SUPER BRACKET BROS: Epic 8: T-800 v Punisher
Michael and Tanner were invited to return to the Super Bracket Bros Podcast where they debated whether the T-800 from T2 or the Punisher from Marvel’s Netflix shows would win in an ultimate battle. Sadly, Tanner was unable to make it, so Michael flew solo as he joined hosts Jay Davis & Eliah Stokes to talk about all things Terminator, the previous T-800 vs Sarah Connor battle, and if the Punisher could actually take a cyborg. Don’t miss this one and be sure to tune into the Super Bracket Bros show for more wacky and exciting battles between your favorite fictional characters. There can only be one, and while we’ll always vote for the Terminator, that doesn’t mean there aren’t plenty of interesting competitors out there! Check out the Super Bracket Bros episode “Epic 8: T-800 v Punisher”!

Episode 35 - The Sarah Connor Chronicles: “Earthlings Are Welcome Here"
On our final edition of NO FATE before the New Year, Michael and Tanner continue their coverage of Season 2 of TERMINATOR: THE SARAH CONNOR CHRONICLES, this time covering the midseason finale episode “Earthlings Are Welcome Here.” But while there are some interesting discussions about why the guys hate Sarah’s “three dots” arc, James Ellison’s mentorship of John Henry, and the history between Jesse and Riley, the highlight of this episode might be the guy’s breakdown of their time on the Super Bracket Bros Podcast. All of this and so much more (including a discussion on James Cameron’s AVATAR, Henry Cavill’s tenure as Superman, and your fanmail) on this week’s episode!
