"Bitter Work"

?Pride is not the opposite of shame, but its source.? It?s an episode full of Uncle Iroh wisdom! Janet and Dante delve into ATLA?s ?Bitter Work? this week, following the progress (or lack thereof) of a certain Avatar and his certain Earthbending Master, as well as training of a different sort between Iroh and Zuko. Along the way, we discover a connection between water and lightning, fire and rage, and Sokka and a very cute sabertooth moose lion cub. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
