In the fractured world of Konatsu, the seasons didn’t change—they shattered.

This week, we are stepping into our cozy corner of the fantasy world to chat with author, traveller, and world-builder Nick Suppa!

Nick joins the show to take us behind the scenes of his coming-of-age epic, The Legend of Rangard: The Winds of Spring.

Blending high fantasy, sci-fi mysticism, and magical realism, Nick’s work builds beautiful, symbolic universes that hold up a mirror to our own. We dive into the tragic trauma that broke Konatsu into four eternal seasonal realms, discuss the heavy burdens of memory and destiny, and find out how Nick’s real-world passion fuelled his creative process.

Grab your favourite warm drink, settle in, and join the adventure.

What happens when you swap a career in healthcare for a world of ancient gods and high-stakes magic?

In this episode, we sit down with urban fantasy author Emily Hawthorne to unpack her mesmerizing debut, Of Mountains and Seas, and its sequel, From the Depths. Emily opens up about her transition out of medicine, how she gives traditional mythological figures like the Azure Dragon a modern makeover, and why the California Central Coast is the perfect backdrop for her story.

We also dive into the mechanics of her writing process—from mapping complex, converging timelines to exploring how real-world power dynamics inspired her high-stakes magic system. Plus, Emily shares what it means to see Chinese-American identity centred in urban fantasy, and offers powerful advice for anyone stuck in a career with a story burning inside them.

Stick around for our Rapid Fire round to hear her dream mythical pet, character anthems, and the hidden BookTok gem you need on your TBR list right now!

What happens when an author decides that traditional heroes are too boring? Today, we’re joined by Andy Peloquin, the prolific mastermind behind an interconnected universe of over 40 novels.

We discuss why the darkest corners of fiction often reveal the brightest truths. Andy shares how his unique lens on the world shapes his protagonists and why he’s traded shining knights for complex outcasts. It’s a deep dive into the craft, the community, and the allure of the anti-hero.

There is truly nothing like award season! The build-up to the 97th Academy Awards is the most exciting of all. The question of who will take home Best Picture, the buzz around who may be taking home another award or who will be taking home their FIRST Oscar...and naturally, all the drama - which is inevitable.

But this year? Oh, it's an interesting one for sure, a lot of things have gone down regarding most of the top nominees so it is going to be a very interesting ceremony come March 2nd.

Now, during this episode we will be discussing most of the nominees, breaking down who we want to win and who we predict to win. The categories not mentioned can be seen on my Instagram where you can find a full breakdown of our predictions for the ceremony.

Don't forget to let us know what your predictions are!

Many of us have been there, we sit and think about what we would LOVE to see in the MCU next. Whether it be introducing new characters into live action, a focus on a villain, or certain comic stories come to life - we all have something we would love for them to do.

In this episode, Dimithri and Justin both share their 'pitches' to me, "Kevin Feige" ;) on what they would like to bring forward to Marvel fans moving forward. In the end, I "crown" and bestow the hypothetical privilege of bringing their pitch to life!

This was SO much fun and I hope you all enjoy hearing them out. Be sure to let us know which pitch you would choose!

Enjoy!

2025 is a wild year for releases! We've got highly anticipated Marvel releases, Superman, new seasons of beloved shows, 28 Years Later (entirely shot on iPhone!), live-action adaptions of animated classics, and some Frankenstein productions. Let's just say...some of the edits this year are going to go crazy!

In anticipation of Deadpool & Wolverine coming out and Cassandra appearing in live-action for the first time, I thought it would be great to get a breakdown of this character! So, of course, I had to have an expert come on the show!

Payton joins me to break down her origins, motivations, and the significant impact she has on the Marvel universe. We then dive into an exciting discussion about how a story involving Deadpool, Wolverine, and Cassandra Nova could unfold, blending their unique personalities and histories.

ALSO, we have a 'Comic Talk' segment, where we take a moment to chat about some of the comics we love!
