We're back! And we're here once again to retell (or describe) a book we've all read. For this episode, we each discuss a book that is a retelling of the most beloved book of all time, "Pride and Prejudice" by Jane Austen and how it remains one of the most prevalent works of fiction to this day. Perfect way to celebrate Jane Austen's 250th birthday!

The gang talks fandom and franchises: our favorites, series we want more of, series we can do without and series we’d like to see made. Funny enough, we don’t argue about Star Wars, not once!

*Important Note*

As a note, while the mic picked up everyone, we also did not adjust the mic enough, so there are moments where the audio would be loud enough to blow out someone's speakers. We tried our best to edit and adjust it, but some of the audio still sounds distorted.
