S8, E7: A Touch of Magic | Women in Literature and a Semi-related Tangent on King Arthur
For our final episode of the season, we had planned to have a discussion on women in literature (a favorite topic of ours, if you haven't surmised that already). However, in typical us fashion, the conversation derails into a discussion about our favorite King Arthur-inspired media pieces. A particular favorite is the TV series Trollhunters... it's very likely that we'll put out a deep-dive episode on that show in the future, so stay tuned!

Welcome to part one of two of The Grishaverse & Other Things, a delightfully chaotic conversation of the Grishaverse that slowly, but steadily, morphs into a multitude of other topics. We jump from our favorite Grishaverse characters to our hot takes on YA contemporary romance to the obsessive, tension-filled relationships between everyone in The Atlas Six (how did we get here, again?).

S8, E3: Nostalgia & Novels | Revisiting Wattpad Classics
We were lucky to experience the Golden Age of Wattpad during our middle and high school years, and we're here today to talk all about it! Whether you're a Wattpad veteran or only just hearing of it, you'll enjoy this chaotic episode of us wandering down memory lane. We frantically try to piece together the plots of barely-remembered Wattpad plots, attempt to explain the Wattpad culture c. 2015-2021, and briefly touch on fanfiction (more in part 2!).
