In a time of warring states (Paul) Question 1: Now that we have introduced the topic, we thought it good to start with a quick assessment with how you feel. How did you feel about your introduction to Aang and his world? (Lebert) Question 2: Now that we’ve set the stage, what did you think of the southern water tribe? Segment 2: Our First Introduction to Zuko (Paul) Question 1: One of the first things Avatar does is introduce us to our hot headed antagonist, Zuko. What did you think of him when you first met him? (Lebert) Question 2: Of course, we also can’t talk about Zuko without talking about uncle Iroh. What did you think of our tea drinking sort of antagonist? Segment 3: The Southern Water Tribe. (Paul) Question 1: Here, as is typical for segment 3, we wanted to discuss the ways in which we saw ourselves reflected in them. We typically do not see many brown characters, and this was a village full of them. How did seeing that make you feel? (Lebert) Question 2: We learned so little about the southern water tribe because of how quickly they left. What do you wish you had gotten to see or better know before team Avatar skated off to the next bit of their journey. (Paul) Lead by Example: Where we highlight those doing good work, or who did good work (Lebert) Listener question of the day idea: How did you feel after you watched your first episode of Avatar?
