This week on Season 1.5 of The Flash Podcast, Andy is joined by two new guests to the podcast: Alan Kistler and ReBecca Theodore as they join him for the next character review of season one of The Flash. This week it’s all about one of the most iconic female characters of the DC Universe and the love of Barry Allen: Iris West! In the discussion, they analyze Iris’s season 1 arc of The Flash, favorite moments, her beautiful relationship with Barry/The Flash and speculates about her journey in season two of The Flash with her becoming the new leader of Team Flash as well as what her relationship with Wally West is going to be like. In addition, they talk about some of the big recent casting news that The Flash has announced with Jesse Quick and Zoom. That and more on the summer edition of The Flash Podcast!

I love you, Andy. You’re such a sweetheart. Thank you for supporting Iris and Candice, and for always having fun things to say about The Flash as a whole. I’m very interested in Jesse Quick – I just hope she gets to be fully realized and we get more of her backstory.
I wish Flash could pass the Bechdel test. Hopefully now that Linda is back and Jesse is coming, we might actually get real conversations between women.
I love what Alan said about Candice’s ability to shift moods. She’s very subtle in her acting, but it works perfectly for Iris and feels very natural.
Also, not informing the people you love (always the woman, of coursr) is dumb because SHE IS ALREADY IN DANGER. Iris was in danger from the very beginning, seeing as Wells knew who she was the whole time.
Okay, if I leave a comment about the whole thing it’ll be an essay. Suffice it to say I love you, I love Iris, I love Westallen. Great episode, and I’m happy we got to hear different takes on Iris and some of her best moments. Thanks!
Excellent interview!
Great episode! Lots of insight into the Iris character and the family dynamic of Joe, Iris, and Barry that I hadn’t thought of.
