Hello, welcome back to The Hex, and welcome back to House of R. I'm Joanna Robinson, joining me today.
If she weren't here, I'd simply have to create her. It's Mallory Rubin. Hey, Mal.

Oh, Joanna, what is podcasting?
If not love persevering. Wonderful to be here with you today, though not in the flesh. I'm home fighting off something, fighting a cold, coming down with something. Didn't want to expose you and the team, but I'm sad not to be with you today for this pod because we love this show so much.
Joanna Robinson (0:49)
Are you mostly sad not to be here today because I promised to make Tom King's ancestral family dip for this podcast and I didn't make it because you're not here and I wasn't going to eat it solo on mic. I could talk about book solo on mic, but I'm not going to eat dip that might kill me on mic by myself.
Mallory Rubin (1:07)
I still look forward to sampling the dip at some point, at some point in the near term, hopefully.

Perhaps next, this episode is brought to you by Quince. We've all got something in our closet that we go back to again and again. The trick is finding pieces like that. Luckily, Quince is all about creating elevated, everyday essentials you'll never want to take off.
Their pieces are high quality and made with materials like organic cotton and premium stretched denim without insane markups. Like, you can get 100% Mongolian cashmere sweater starting at $50.
I've been loving personally, Quince has a whole line of linen button-down shirts, and I'm in my linen button-down shirt era because summers in Los Angeles are oppressively hot. So this is something I've been really, really enjoying based off of what I got from Quince, and I was really shocked by how reasonably priced they were. So you can find the fall pieces you'll reach for most at Quince. Download the Quince app for app-exclusive offers or go to quince.com, get free shipping on your order and 365-day returns. Now available in Canada and the UK too. When Quince asks where you heard about them, let them know it was House of R. It's the best way to support the show.
SPEAKER_3 (2:10)
I'm pro football Hall of Fame, O'Brien Dawkins, and I lived for a long time with something I did not know the name of, major depressive disorder.
SPEAKER_4 (2:19)
I carry sadness and anger because I thought I could handle it alone, but I couldn't.
SPEAKER_3 (2:24)
Now I want to make sure others know that that support is out there. If you're experiencing similar symptoms, talk to a health care professional. Visit mddallies.com to watch my story.
SPEAKER_5 (2:36)
Paid partnership with Johnson & Johnson. O'Brien Dawkins has not prescribed Capillita Luma-Teperon.
SPEAKER_6 (2:41)
This little light of mine In the dark found a hopeful sign I needed more from my antidepressant, so my doctor added Capillita Luma-Teperon, proven to provide greater relief from depression symptoms than an antidepressant alone, building on my progress without starting over. Capillita is for adults with major depressive disorder when used with an antidepressant and is available by prescription only. Individual results may vary. In clinical trials, weight gain was not common.
SPEAKER_5 (3:08)
Elderly dementia patients have increased risk of death or stroke. Capillita is not approved for dementia-related psychosis. Call your doctor about new or sudden mood changes, behaviors or suicidal thoughts right away. Antidepressants may increase these risks. Report fever, confusion, stiff muscles, which may be life threatening, or uncontrolled muscle movements, which may be permanent. High cholesterol and weight gain may occur, as can high blood sugar, which may be fatal. Monitoring is recommended. Common side effects are sleepiness, dizziness, nausea, dry mouth, feeling tired and diarrhea. These aren't all the side effects.
SPEAKER_6 (3:35)
Ask your doctor about Capillita. Learn more at capillita.com or call 888-252-4824.

Next week. So listen, next week, programming reminders, next week, VisionQuest starts. New Marvel Disney Plus show, been a minute. Here we are with our guy, Paul Bettany, in the mental mind palace for VisionQuest. We're really excited to cover that starting next week. And so this is our WandaVision sort of rewatch primer to get us ready to watch VisionQuest. The only episode we're doing next week is VisionQuest, very exciting. And then after that, the week after that, is a week we've been talking about for a very long time because we looked at the calendar, and October 23rd, there are just so many House of R coded movies coming out, including Clayface, Wicker, Wildwood, Claire and the Sun, which we'll actually get a mention in my sort of Vision conversation today.
