Listen in as Yani, Kailee, Rachael, Zach, Roxy, and Alie discuss, question, and debate all things Toph.
From headcanons about her as a possible avatar or her first earth rumble match, to debate around her behavior in The Desert and her legacy in The Legend of Korra, I hope you come away with something new to consider.
The Ember Island Critics is a casual podcast with a rotating cast of college students coming together to discuss one of the most beloved works of our childhood and what we've grown to question over the years. Sit tight for theories, headcanons, and hot takes galore!
