The time is now... the time we've (and we mean only Sydney) has been waiting for; the holly, the jolly, the holiday season is here baby!! Sydney loves everything about the holiday season - giving gifts, baking cookies, the music, and of course, snuggling up to a seasonal movie. Her absolute, 100%, all time favorites are Hallmark Christmas movies. Yes, she knows they're a bit problematic. Yes, she knows that they are pretty white, and straight, and thin, but we're all allowed to like problematic things something (I mean, come on, Maya likes Gojo Satoru of all people). But, since this is her podcast, she can do anything and everything her little Christmas heart desires; and that means giving you all the gay Hallmark Christmas movie you deserve with everyone's favorite sapphic super couple. SantaCorp, here we come. As always, send us your fic recommendations, or reach out if you are a fic author who would like to be interviewed in the future, at [email protected]

Fanfiction author Chel, a.k.a destinies (Tactical Surrender, Out of Time, and Queen in Exile), joins Sydney and Maya to talk about how the announcement of the Wicked movie perfectly correlates with her fanfiction anniversary, the dichotomy of The Darkling and Kylo Ren (as well as Darklina and Reylo), the pros and cons of having one of the biggest fics in your fandom, and how great it was to see the love and spike of content Shadow and Bone received from new fans after the Netflix Original show aired. Plus, Sydney and Chel talk about how surprisingly hard it is to write politics for a made-up fantasy world.

Fic Recommendations: Murder Ballad by LinearA and go i know not whither and fetch i know not what by voicedimplosives

Alright besties, this one is a lot, and to prove how much this one will hurt... it's currently Maya's favorite fic of the year. So here we go! This fic has everything that will hurt in the best (or worst, in Sydney's case) way. A loveless arranged marriage, a cheating husband, twists and turns, up and downs like you wouldn't expect. There are plenty of trigger warnings for this one, so please be mindful of those before you listen to this episode. With those out of the way, please buckle your seatbelts and get ready to listen to the best (or worst) fanfiction Canonically Incorrect has brought you thus far. P.S. since she's given us back-to-back hurty fics, Sydney has made her promise to bring a very fluffy and not-at-all painful fanfiction next month for the holiday season.

Sydney and Maya started this podcast for one reason, and one reason only. And that is for them to have a 'notice me, senpai' moment with their favorite fanfiction authors. You will not find a more desperate and flustered plea for her favorite fic author to look her way than Sydney's episode today. Not only is this fic something she has been following for the past year, but also happens to feature one of her top three ships. So come along as she recaps the fic that has changed her life; featuring baseball, the volatility of teenage love, and only a little bit of religious trauma. If you take away anything from this podcast, please have it be to read this fic and keep it close to your heart.

Happy Halloween ghouls, gremlins and non-binary goblins! It's that time of year and an extra week in October, and Sydney and Maya have brought something extra spooky just for you. In celebration (and in mourning) of the final season of Buzzfeed Unsolved, Sydney has found and brought forth a series of fanfictions that are mere recreations of the episodes we all know and love. With Sydney as Ryan Bergara and Maya as Shane Madej, they try their best to fill the roles of a lifetime while they bring you the story of the Brothers Winchester.

They're here, they're queer, and they're ready to talk about She-ra! Moonlit_Catra and sherassword join Sydney and Maya to talk about the extremely gay way they started watching She-Ra and the Princesses of Power, their fears for the live-action She-Ra show presented by Amazon, how they use roleplaying to co-write the dialogue of a fic, and the delicacy of writing pregnancy in a fic (even when pregnancy is not the most celebrated trope). Plus, Sydney and Maya rethink their friendship to see if they too would role play a smut scene for the betterment of their fanfiction.

I hope you're prepared for the fright of your life because the party is not stopping on our end as Maya arrives fashionably late with a fic that will not only scare you, but will traumatize you. One of her all time favorite games, Undertale is making a comeback and that means Maya, too, has to rise up from the grave to scream awake all the fandom skeletons. And all jokes aside, this fic has a strong content warning for physical, mental and emotional trauma. If you have any trigger AT ALL near these warnings, listen with discretion and please stop listening at any point.

This town ain't big enough for two pro-fanfiction podcasts... just kidding! Evin from Fanfiction is Good Actually joins Sydney and Maya to talk about the journey of starting a podcast to fight against the anti-fanfiction podcasts, how he started reading fanfiction after being horny for one Dorian Pavus, the convergence of fanfiction and tabletop gaming, and the new phenomenon of fanfiction author putting their fanfics behind a paywall.

It's week two of an extremely indulgent, very self-serving birthday month for Sydney and Maya! It's Maya's turn this week, and she's serving up a deal just for you. That's right, a BOGO deal for you during her birthday month. Two fanfictions, two fandoms, two stories all for the price of sitting through one episode (and don't say she's not generous). Though while there's two stories, there's one lesson at the very end. Can you decide what that is before the end?
