Brenna and Joe circle back on Hayley Kiyoko's Girls Like Girls to check out the 2026 film.
We're disappointed. Great chemistry between the two leads and music video visual aesthetic don't make up for even less character development than the book!
Plus: Zach Braff; losing backstories; and pondering the changes in the queer female media landscape over the last ~10 years

Following our episode on The Song of the Lioness, we immediately heard from 'Tea, Books & Chocolate' as well as Emma who wrote in to reassure us about the subversive nature of the rest of the quartet, new love interests, and how the series intersects with queerness in unexpected ways.
Plus: an apology from Joe and a reassurance that we will continue with plans to read Book 3!

Brenna and Joe catch up on Prime's Legally Blonde prequel with season one of Elle.
Starring a perfectly cast Lexi Minetree, we have a lot of pros and cons with the series. The model is not binge-friendly and the relationships are inconsistent across episodes.
Plus: Tom Everett Scott as Elle's dad; needle drops; a final James Van Der Beek performance; and disagreement about the love triangle

Skins series three ends by sidelining most of its characters in order to focus on the Effy, Freddie, and Cook love triangle and WE DON'T CARE!
Plus: Cook's extremely predictable father; a granny race; the grimness of the finale; and we finally figure out what's missing from/wrong with this season.

Brenna and Joe return to discuss 1984's In the Hand of the Goddess, book two of Tamora Pierce's The Song of the Lioness.
This is an interesting one because the book is much more YA than MA (Alanna is having sex!) and also jumps around in time.
Plus: wrapping up Duke Roger; a plot detail stolen by Veronica Roth for Divergent; and our fears about where the quadrilogy may go
