Another Bite of Twilight

Peter Facinelli, Elizabeth Reaser, Nikki Reed, Ashley Greene, Kellan Lutz, and Jackson Rathbone—what would Twilight be without them? We discuss the stories behind the actors and debate what worked and what didn’t in each role. Is Nikki the right Rosalie? Does Peter do Carlisle justice? Plus, we share listeners’ input and which Twilight actor commented on our Instagram!

This is a mini-mini-mini episode to apologize and say that because we were on a trip to L.A., we were unable to finish recording for this week's podcast. But we'll be back next week and in the meantime, here is a preview. Plus: The title of this "episode" is a quote from Robert Pattinson back in the day after a reporter asked, "Rob, where's your girlfriend?"

This week, we discuss the woman, the myth, the legend: Stephenie Meyer. After all, we wouldn’t be here without her. We dig into Meyer’s past and uncover the answers to our most pressing questions: What’s up with Midnight Sun? What has she said about Renesmee and Jacob books? What was she like before fame? And what does HGTV have to do with Twilight?

Bon Iver, Death Cab For Cutie, The Killers, and of course, Muse—they’re all here! Listen to snippets from the folksy New Moon soundtrack as we analyze and review each song. Plus, hilarious listener mail & our very own meme!

After re-rewatching New Moon, we've somehow become even more obsessed with the series (and Edward). Join us with a glass of wine and share our commentary scene by scene. Is there chemistry between Carlisle and Bella? What do we think of that papercut? Did Bella overreact to the breakup? Is director Chris Weitz hot?? We discuss it all and more!

In this episode, we focus on the hairstyles of Twilight—and it turns out there’s A LOT to discuss. Like, what’s with all the unconvincing wigs? Why would they change the vampires’ hair throughout the series? And of course, how did Edward’s iconic ‘do influence an entire generation? Now enjoy a visual component on YouTube!

We've brought on two guests who are familiar with Twilight but were never huge fans. What’s their deal?? We grill them on why they didn’t read (or finish) the books, and they ask us some questions too. Episode features: light bickering, Harry Potter/Hunger Games comparisons, and more embarrassing Twilight-related stories.

Picking up after the iconic meadow scene, Mel and Kel continue to reread Twilight for the first time in years. How does it compare to the movie or to the first time we read it 2008? You’ll just have to listen and find out!

We've re-read Twilight and it has transported us back to 2008, swooning over every single thing Edward Cullen does (like knocking on the door!). There's so much to say about these 498 pages, so let us be your CliffNotes and reading companion as we reevaluate the book that started it all.

Kel and Mel put on their music critic hats this week to revisit the Twilight soundtrack (plus one extra song that didn't make it!). In the episode, we analyze each song while contemplating which Paramore tune is better, swoon over Robert Pattinson’s voice, and try to figure out what the heck “American mouth” means. And as always, enjoy our loving re-enactments with sound clips.
