    On today's episode, we bring you myths. Lots and lots of myths. We've also got graphic novels, the wonder of storytelling, and a little sneak peak of our next episode, which we know will have everyone excited. It may have to do with the third installment of a certain series that rhymes with SnightSnark.

  • Episode 39 - Our Triumphant Return
    Sep 17 2024

    Did you miss us?! We know we've been... uhh.... missing in action. But we've come back in style, baby. Because Kristen brought a bad romance, and Laety brought something really weird but somehow meaningful. Typical. Other talking points include: the intimacy of girlhood friendships, the worst shapeshifter ever, and a return to AITA (hint: they both suck!)
