Hysterical investigates a mysterious illness that spreads among a group of high school girls in upstate New York. What is causing their sudden, often violent symptoms? Is there something in the water or inside the school? Or is it “all in their head?” The series examines the outbreak in LeRoy, NY, believed by some to be the most severe case of mass hysteria since the Salem Witch Trials. In his search for answers, Dan Taberski (9/12, Missing Richard Simmons, Running from Cops) explores other seemingly inexplicable events of the last few years – CIA officers being crippled with nausea and vertigo; cops OD'ing from exposure to fentanyl – and discovers they’re far more connected than we realize.

From Wondery and Pineapple Street Studios, this 7-part series forces us to grapple with the mysteries of our own minds, and reckon with a contagion that we thought was long dead, but may be the defining disorder of our time.

V8! V8! V8! This week, we come face to face with the Conductor of the Choir of Death himself. It's George Miller's FURY ROAD. The one. The only. The best blockbuster of the past 20 years? Or...ever? Listen as we contend with what very well may be the most "Eye of the Duck" movie of all time.

And ride back to the Wasteland one last time with us next week as we finally collide with the 2024 prequel epic, FURIOSA: A MAD MAX SAGA. Join the conversation on Eye of the Discord at https://discord.com/invite/RssDc3brsx

To the bat-tank! It's another bonus this week. Rachel Talalay's TANK GIRL may not exactly take place in George Miller's dystopian world...but it's close enough. This one has been a long time coming and we couldn't be more excited to talk kangaroo guys, Naomi Watts, and the manic pixie killing machine performance by Lori Petty.

Next week, we peel out of the Wasteland to announce the results of Miniseries MAYhem!! Join the conversation on Eye of the Discord at https://discord.com/invite/RssDc3brsx

Camelot is a state of mind. And a bonus (!) episode for our Mad Max series! This week it's George A. Romero's criminally unappreciated KNIGHTRIDERS, a film about guys who joust on motorcycles. It sounds like madness, but it's actually a moving testament to artistic purity from one of cinema's most uncompromising visionaries. We love it! And we hope you will too.

Next week, we hit another bonus before returning to the Wasteland: Rachel Talalay's TANK GIRL (1995). Join the conversation on Eye of the Discord at https://discord.com/invite/RssDc3brsx
