  • Tis' the season of the witch
    2022/10/31

    As it’s Halloween we’re getting into everything witchy; exploring famous witches, covens and all-female communities in fiction. We discuss how witches are making a comeback and their role within modern day feminism, as well as talking about how we bring magic into own own lives (including a deep dive into our star signs - sorry not sorry).


    We discuss Hocus Pocus, TV show Yellowjackets, Willow in Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Sabrina the Teenage Witch, Hermione in Harry Potter, Naomi Alderman’s novel The Power, Mariana Enriquez short story collection The Dangers of Smoking in Bed, Women Who Run with the Wolves by Clarissa Pinkola Estés and Robert Egger’s film The Witch. Plus our latest cultural recommendations!

  • Mother may I? Mothers and motherhood in fiction
    2022/10/14

    In our tenth episode we get into mothers and motherhood! We explore our own feelings about having children with a very big disclaimer that as two non-mothers who aren’t planning on having children any time soon, our perspectives are of course, limited.


    We look at how mothers and motherhood is represented in books including The Argonauts by Maggie Nelson, A Life's Work by Rachel Cusk, Blue Ticket by Sophie Mackintosh, An Excellent Choice by Emma Brockes and The Mothers by Brit Bennett.


    We delve into the charmed mother daughter relationships in Netflix’s The Duchess and our fave show Gilmore Girls, as well as NOW TV’s dark new show The Baby, which looks at women forced into motherhood.


    Plus as always, we answer listener questions and give our latest recommendations. If you liked the podcast don't forget to share, rate and review - it helps the podcast reach more people!

  • Twilight: A special deep dive episode
    2022/09/27

    In our first ever deep dive episode, we get into the epic saga that is the Twilight series. Love it or hate it, the impact of the Twilight books and films were huge; selling over 100 million copies and making over 400 million dollars at the box office.


    We get into why the story of ordinary gal Bella caught in a love triangle with a vampire and a werewolf gripped a generation of teenagers (we were two of them), discussing if we’re Team Edward or Team Jacob, exploring the story’s increasingly bizarre plot line, debating whether or not it’s feminist and looking at the series’ deeply concerning racist undertones.


    There will be spoilers, but we doubt you’re here if you weren’t - at some point - a Twihard. Enjoy 🧛🏻‍♀️🩸🐺
