Things in Bix Banderson Vs. The Universe that make me emotional, because I love this radio show that nobody's heard of and you can't stop me from talking about it. (Spoiler alert if you plan on listening to the show (you should. it's free))

the fact that if you think about it slorth and mokso were the ones inadvertently responsible for the revolution.

Bix taking one look at the way that Slorth and Mokso we're treating Echo and immediately just deciding. Yep this robot is my brother now. And also the fact that he had no problems with throwing those two out onto an underdeveloped planet to die.

Bix being 100% willing to torture himself with the mental reprogrammer so that he can learn how to save the universe

Echo teaching Bix how to use the mental reprogrammer and then taking care of him when he knocks himself out with it

Echo slow resignation that Bix is going to call him his brother and there's nothing he can do about it

Thirteens entire character arc, as he overcomes his brainwashing and shifts from being an accidental prisoner to being a member of the team. Excuse me while I cry.

Freebird being a 100% underrated character, trying to overcome her past as she gains her freedom and autonomy. There's a lot there.

Thera being both a princess and a general, and being the only character on the ship to keep her original name, as she's the only one who is already happy with who she is.

Honestly I could probably do a whole nother post about the significance of all of the names to the characters storys and relationships to one another. There is so much there.

Everyone go listen to Bix Banderson vs. The Universe on decoder ring theater! It is a great show about an 11 year old and a robot from space trying to save the earth from the conquering force of The Universe. This show deserves a bigger fan base and if I have to build it myself I will.

If you think about it, Slorth and Moxo actually responsible for the downfall of the universe, because they were so abusive to Echo that he decided to help Bix start the rebellion

You know, Bix did name Echo, Freebird and Thirteen, but Echo also technically named Bix. Also, only one person aboard the Freebird has the same name they started with.

Oh my God this week's Bix banderson episode was good! I can't pick a favorite character anymore.
