Episode 5: Narratives Do Not Define Me: A Totally Normal Discussion of Black Sails

We have returned from the dead to discuss the Starz show Black Sails, including our personal thoughts and theories, as well as a discussion about the relationship between Black Sails and Treasure Island. And we're so normal about it, you guys. Honestly. The tumblr post referenced toward the end of the episode is by tumblr user spidermanifested. Our intro and outro music is All the Ugly Space Folk by HoliznaCC0.

Episode 4: Pop Culture Prophecies: The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel

We discuss our hopes and predictions for the upcoming final season of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel. Spoilers for seasons 1-4. Our intro and outro music is All the Ugly Space Folk by HoliznaCC0.

Episode 3: Unicorns Fix Everything

We return from an unplanned break to play a game of telephone with Brie Larson's 2017 movie Unicorn Store. Our intro and outro music is All the Ugly Space Folk by HoliznaCC0.

Episode 2: Fanworks: A Personal History

We take a brief trip through the history of fanworks and how they've been distributed, and discuss the most popular fanfiction in our top three fandoms. If you're looking for some recommendations Chris recommends "not exactly where i need to be (and yet it seems so close)" by varnes, "find other muses" by deadspy, and "a long winter" by dropdeaddream and whatarefears for the It, The Goldfinch, and Marvel fandoms. Crystal recommends "the whole estate of mortal man" by amiril, "breathless (a tale of eggsy unwin)" by xxjinchuurikixx, and "hi, you were my husband in another life, professor" by littlebirdtold for the Black Sails, Kingsman, and Star Trek fandoms. Crystal's actual favorite Kingsman fic was too explicit to list, so you will have to settle for second place. Our intro and outro music is All the Ugly Space Folk by HoliznaCC0.

Episode 1: Found Families

Join us for our inaugural episode, where we discuss the found family trope and its use in superhero franchises. Our intro and outro music is All the Ugly Space Folk by HoliznaCC0.
