Apple TV+'s latest sci-fi series is coming to a close, So we have our overview of the last eight episodes (we looked at the first two here: https://www.podcaphilia.com/eftv/ep196) for you to digest, and see if you think it holds up to the award winning novella series.

After a dark week, that felt forever, the UFC goes from the T-Mobile Arena to the Bridgestone Arena, Nashville, Tennessee for 'UFC on ESPN: Lewis vs. Teixeira'!
The Heavyweights get to shine on this card, with three bouts, one of which is the headliner! That's not it though, as we have fighters looking to save their jobs, move up in the rankings and make potential title contention noise!!!
So, @ChinCheckPod (ep 255) has you covered, as we've broken down the fights, so all you have to do is sit back and enjoy 'UFC on ESPN 70'!!!!
Holy camoly, even with one fight dropping off, 'UFC 317: Topuria vs Oliveira' was a night for the books!!!
Coming from Baku, where there were only two finishes, to Vegas, where we have six, AND the decisions were exciting too! So many fighters on the card made HUGE statements on their potential, what's next, or just the fact that they're still contenders. It was most definitely an event fitting of 'International Fight Week'!!!
Not only did we end the night with a 'And Still' and a 'And New', but we also went 7 - 4!!!! So now, we get to relive all the excitement of 'UFC 317' with @ChinCheckPod (ep 254), "What A Rush"!!!!
Highly anticipated is putting this 'UFC 317' card lightly!
The T-Mobile Arena will be filled to the rafters, as we have a stacked card, topped by TWO title fights, one of which is for the vacant Lightweight strap!!!
12 great match-ups, and @ChinCheckPod (ep 253) is breaking it all down for you. So you can just tune in and enjoy the heck out of 'UFC 317: Topuria vs. Oliveira'!!!!
It was another 8 - 4 week for the podcast, which is one of the bigger highlights from a bit of a flat event in Baku, Azerbaijan!
However, don't get it twisted, there were still some fighters that showed out, hard. With a Lightweight clash being the blazing beacon of heart, grit, and goddamn!!!
Everything gets looked over on @ChinCheckPod (ep 252) so enjoy the 'UFC on ABC: Hill vs. Rountree Jr' recap!!!!
There are no crystal balls to predict the future, BUT, when the UFC heads to Baku, Azerbaijan for the very first time, it's fair to say, there will be fireworks happening at the Baku Crystal Hall!
The action is airing on ABC, and in the 12 fights on the docket, we have debuts, impressive winning streaks, and fighters hungry to reach that next level!
And, @ChinCheckPod (ep 251) has got you covered, as we've broken down the fights, so all you have to do is sit back and enjoy 'UFC on ABC: Hill vs. Rountree Jr'!!!!
Every year, we like to drop something extra on the 9th. So you get a 'Special Edition' @EchoChamberFP https://www.instagram.com/echochamberfp/ episode to celebrate!!!
