This episode we talk about: Lydia and Wickham set out - and we aren't unhappy that we won't see them for a long while. Bingley comes back - WITH A FRIEND! Darcy and Elizabeth are awkward turtles - and we are here for it. Bingley and Jane being their own awkward soup. We are super happy for Jane! YAY JANE! Theresa is preparing to burn their book and hate Jane Austen if there isn't an epilogue that tells us about everyone's life after the HEA.

In this episode Theresa is asking "Where is Darcy?" We discuss how Wickham is evil and give our musings on some of his abusive behaviour and predatory traits. We struggle with Jane as she focuses on intent over impact, but we also see her as the rock that has kept the family operating during this trying time. We are frustrated with the Bennet parents, and deeply wish the Gardiners could have been the parents instead. We wish Wickham was dead and we feel for Lydia. We discuss how horrible Collins is and how Austen uses him to critique a particular worldview (if you have these views you should challenge them – because you have the same views as Mr Collins). And we are here for the sibling love - both our's and Jane and Lizzy's.

Hey! We made it back for another episode. In here we discuss the Darcy sibling's social anxiety and what happened to these poor awkward puppies. We talk about Darcy and Elizabeth being obviously in love but pretending not to be - everybody else totally noticing. We discuss victim-blaming around Lydia's circumstances and how scared she must be. And Darcy is leaving. We are grieved indeed! grieved--shocked! But is it certain--absolutely certain? Hopefully you'll come back and join us next time to find out.

After an unplanned but much needed hiatus, we are back! We discuss leaving Hunstford, lunch with Kitty and Lydia, and Lizzy watching her family dynamics unravel. We both agree that if we were 15 we wouldn't want to be Lydia's friend. And we are happy to be leaving Collins behind, but CHAAAAAARLOOOOTTTE! :(

We discuss Darcy's letter and Elizabeth's reaction. Does Darcy feel guilty or is he trying to be right? Did the senior Wickham relationship make Darcy suspicious of people marrying for wealth? Wickham is evil - no debate there. Was Elizabeth the asshole?
