Banterly

Get cozy with a cup of pumpkin spice latte and join our hosts as they dive into their favorite fall shows. As the leaves change, Suha and Aidan chat about how the season shifts their lives, wardrobes, and viewing habits.

Suha revisits Gilmore Girls, soaking up the small-town charm of Stars Hollow and its quirky characters that make you feel right at home. Meanwhile, Aidan embraces the spooky, surreal vibes of Twin Peaks, with its layered characters, murder mystery, and autumnal eeriness.

They wrap things up with a fun discussion about making something you love your personality and how sharing a show with someone can leave a lasting impact. Sit back, relax, and enjoy!

Hey listeners! This week on Banterly, we're switching things up. Aidan and Suha take a break from pop culture to share their candid thoughts following the 2024 U.S. election. They open up about their reactions, conversations, and what they were doing in the hours after learning that Trump won.

They explore everything from political polarization to echo chambers and the pressure to be politically active online. It's an honest and open exchange between two Gen Z New Yorkers who agree on one thing: life goes on, and no one really knows what comes next.
