I particularly enjoyed hearing you cover "The Wedding of Magi and Sandra", the final chapter of Jimmy and Lucy's romance in their guises of Magi, the magician and Sandra, the English actress. Part of me wishes that this time, they'd have realized, once and for all, that their relationship was pretty dysfunctional and that they'd really be better off breaking off permanently and looking for more suitable matches. I know that, later on, in the Bronze Age, they did break things off, but I think it should have happened much sooner. They never really seemed to be a good match, and their relationship seemed pretty immature on both sides.
