Bonus: Fanon is Not Enough: Our Thoughts on 8x09 and 8x10 Feat. Justin Gross
Content warning: This episode includes some mild talk of suicide, including a reference in our opening bit. It's all related to the content of 8x09, but if you haven't seen said episode or don't want to relive it, be aware!Enjoy this already obsolete bonus discussion of 9-1-1 season 8 episodes 9 and 10. Fair warning, this is a bit of a cynical episode in which we air a lot of grievances with season 8 and the general direction of the show. If you were expecting a high-spirits buddiemaxxing episode, this might not be the one for you! We covered a lot of topics, so here are timestamps:00:00 Intro6:55 Is Buddie queerbait?/Ryan Guzman opinions28:11 Buddie in 8x09 and 8x1048:25 Season 8 in general, the show's declining quality1:05:06 The Maddie stuff/Why won't the show take risks?1:27:29 Advice to Tim Minear/Who we would kill off1:40:36 Miscellaneous joking around1:44:09 Maddie goaded a guy into killing himself1:50:36 Closing thoughtsTwitter: https://x.com/FirstRespodcastJane: https://x.com/jane_mulcahyRyan: https://x.com/dancommadirtyYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@FirstRespodcastJustin's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/justgrosss/Check out For the Love of DILFs: https://www.outtvgo.com/details/TV_SHOW/collection/6319503491112/for-the-love-of-dilfs

It's a Kevininomenon (S2 EP 12 "Chimney Begins")
In this week's episode, everything's coming up CHIMNEYYYYY!! Except back in his 2005-set backstory episode, he was still just Howie Han, ambitious but unsuccessful jack of all trades. Little did poor Howie know, if he had just pitched the Snuggie about 5 years later, he would've been rich! Unfortunately, he had to go seek his fortune at the most racist firehouse in southern California instead.Twitter: https://x.com/FirstRespodcastJane: https://x.com/jane_mulcahyRyan: https://x.com/dancommadirtyYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@FirstRespodcast

With Apologies to Writer Adam Glass (S2 EP 9 "Hen Begins")
We've hit our first 'Begins' episode! Let us take you through the backstory of one strong female firefighter Henrietta Wilson. This is kind of a slow burn episode where we gradually realize what we thought was a well-written episode may not have been so well-written after all. As this comes to us from the same writer as season 1, episode 9, TRAPPED, we have no choice to conclude that perhaps writer Aristotle Kousakis, and not S1E9 story credit Adam Glass, was in fact to blame.Twitter: https://x.com/FirstRespodcastJane: https://x.com/jane_mulcahyRyan: https://x.com/dancommadirtyYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@FirstRespodcast
