We weren’t big fans of Children of Anguish and Anarchy, but we gave it a fair shot. In this episode, we break down the final installment’s tangled plot, heavy-handed themes, and emotional whiplash. Zélie’s journey is epic, but the pacing and payoff left us more puzzled than pumped. Still, there’s plenty to unpack—from magical politics to messy alliances. Tune in for a light critique with love for the world, if not the ending.

We’re cracking open Children of Virtue and Vengeance and stepping straight into the storm of Orïsha’s fractured magic and fractured morals. This episode pulls no punches as we confront the chaos, grief, and power struggles that define Zélie and Amari’s return. Expect heated debates over Amari’s leadership choices, Zélie’s unraveling, and a roster of side characters who test every ounce of our patience. We’re not here to coddle anyone. If your fav made a mess, we’re calling it out. From vengeance-fueled decisions to emotionally charged betrayals, this sequel gives us plenty to argue about. Buckle up, because the shade is flying and the receipts are ready.

In this episode, we ride magical giant cats, dodge evil monarchs, and scream “Bring back the magic!” like it’s our job. Zélie’s got powers, trauma, and a whole lot of attitude—and we’re here for every dramatic hair flip and dagger stare. We unpack the plot, the heartbreak, and the tension. Also: Yoruba mythology, floating boats, and one very intense sibling dynamic. Tune in for chaos, commentary, and a magical breakdown of Tomi Adeyemi’s epic fantasy debut that may or may not involve yelling about fictional teenagers.
