First off, we’d like to thank you for shooting Republic City Dispatch into the #2 spot on iTunes Film & TV podcast chart after less than a week of being there. We’re coming, Pop Culture Happy Hour!

Subscribe to and review us on iTunes HERE.

Second:

LET US ALL BE FRIENDS!

We’ve been loving your responses/comments/questions and have been receiving a bit more than we were expecting (we can HANDLE it, we just weren’t expecting it).

You can submit questions to us via Tumblr or e-mail.

As you all reveal your inner genius, I promise we will read everything, we will publish theories, comments, questions, freakouts, art, links and suggestions on the blog if we think they contribute to the greater discussion of Korra and the world of Avatar.

What we won’t respond to are anonymous comments like this:

I don’t exactly have any questions. But I do have some things I’d like to say. I love listening to the podcast, but I feel like I HAVE to correct some things that you said. Amon’s name is pronounced like a Jamaican guy saying “A man” (A mon) and not like “A moan”. Also, I bunch of people died in Airbender. Commander Zhao, Princess Yue, Combustion-man, and we also saw Roku and Katara’s mom die in flashbacks). And lastly, I don’t know which one of you called Aang, “Ong,” but that is unforgivable.

Your corrections and Getting-Mads-At will be read, and be assured that we all have great shame when we’re listening to the episode and hear someone pronounce something wrong or represent something wrong. Also, if you’re right and we’re in the position to correct it (like yesterday’s brief fiasco when Da7e got Iroh’s son’s name wrong with the best intentions), we will.

We’re getting it: a woman podcaster, exclusives, correct pronunciations. We really, really, really want to be part of your cool kids club, and are taking it very seriously.

We just can’t respond to criticism left anonymously and still get anything done. 

Everyone who has submitted thus far has done it completely right, our inbox is brimming with great theories from the wild (“Tenzin is Amon!” to the likely “I want Korra and Aang to meet in The Avatar State”) and interacting has been so much fun.
