    Ms. Puzon: The Gang's Human Nemesis

    No fangs, no claws, no haunted anything — just a teacher with a heavy bag and forty minutes that terrified four kids more than any aswang. Tonight the clubhouse takes on Ms. Puzon: the margin-noted case log that broke Gino's heart, the eleven-second timetable demolition of Kiko, and the dismissed class and desk-side silence that undid Jo. Then the debate the fandom never settled — villain, foil, or the only adult telling the truth? Verdict at the end. Next time: Case File Six, the haunted cave-cemetery. Chapters: 00:00 Cold Open 01:23 Back In The Clubhouse 02:31 Who Is Ms. Puzon 05:14 Gino Versus Puzon 08:01 Kiko Versus Puzon 10:42 Jo Versus Puzon 13:30 Villain, Foil, or Truth-Teller 17:11 Closing B1 Gang Podcast — four friends, thirteen books, every monster and every teacher.

    The Tikbalang at the Crossroads

    The horse-demon that leads night travelers astray gets the full creature treatment. Nora, Dev, Marcus, and Theo walk the night road together — from the oldest provincial folklore about the tikbalang, through the gang's most disorienting chase (inside-out shirts, spoken permission, and the loop that decays on purpose), into a Theory Hour that asks whether the creature hunts the gang or herds them somewhere. Plus a hot-takes lightning round, a mailbag with two gloriously unhinged letters, and a look down a very crowded shelf. Next time: Ms. Puzon — the human nemesis. No fangs, no folklore. Just one adult with total authority. Chapters: 00:00 Cold Open 01:46 Back In The Clubhouse 02:34 What The Old Stories Say 05:52 The Crossroads Chase 09:28 Theory Hour: Hunt Or Herd? 11:44 Hot Takes Lightning Round 12:40 Mailbag 15:30 Down The Road 16:35 Next Time: Ms. Puzon 17:47 Outro B1 Gang Podcast Season Three — four new hosts, chaptered deep dives, Theory Hour, and hot takes on the gang's world.

    Why the B1 Gang Still Works

    📚 Why are we still talking about these books? Two friends, one fandom, thirty Mondays. Season 2 opens with Lexi and Jace making the case for the B1 Gang in 2026 — accessibility, characters, monsters, chapter pacing, and the friendship that holds thirteen books together. They argue about who they'd want in their corner (Lexi picks Kiko and Boging, Jace picks Jo, Gino gets the reluctant-leader speech he deserves). Plus the first fan-fiction cold open of the season: the gang in their clubhouse on a Tuesday night, before any case file, just being the four of them. This is a fandom show for people who already love these books, and for people who have never heard of them and want to know what the hype is about. Every Monday. Thirty episodes. Spoiler-light intro, then the books in order. CHAPTERS: 00:00 — Cold open: pitch the books in 2026 04:00 — What makes the series still work 10:00 — Why the monsters actually land 14:00 — The friendship that holds thirteen books together 18:00 — Who would you want in your corner? 24:00 — Fan fiction: Tuesday night in the clubhouse 28:00 — What's coming next week (and all season) The first podcast season two episode of B1 Gang, an original fan-driven conversation about the 1990s Filipino youth-adventure book series.
