Do you hear squealing? That's Cait catapulting into the stratosphere with joy over James Purefoy's portrayal of Philippe. In this episode, we're talking about fathers and sons, the differences between Book Diana and Show Diana, the power of Matthew's grief, and how to built a strong relationship on the foundation of ONE VERY LARGE LIE.

We hope that you're well, safe, and secure this morning -- it's frigid at C&C HQ-East and not likely to warm up for a few more weeks. We're eagerly awaiting the equinox and the first of the snowdrops and crocus, just like everyone else.

In today's episode, we're diving in to Episode 2x04 of A Discovery of Witches TV -- we're talking about dating, plot structure, new adaptive material, character development, and whether Phoebe is just a little bit too chill about the blood fridge in Marcus's kitchen. A special shout-out to Jen's TV boyfriend, Domenico, and Gerbert being a creepy old coot.

If you're reading this on release day, you're in luck! Tonight, we're live tweeting Episode 2x07 of ADOWTV at 6pm EST/3pm PST using the HT #ccalchemy.

Happiest Sunday, Clovers!

We hope you're well and safe and enjoying the waning days of January 2021. Today, we're thrilled to discuss Season 2, Episode 2 of A Discovery of Witches TV -- the gorgeous sets and costumes, the smart plot and character choices, the power of strong adaptation, and the delicious appearance of Matthew Roydon's earring.

If you're catching this on release day, be sure to tune in for AMC's A Discovery of Witches Season 1 marathon TODAY at 1pm EST/10am PST.

As you might have noticed, our release schedule for the pod is running slightly behind the release of episodes and our live tweets -- we made the conscious choice to go slowly this season in order to prolong the magic for as long as possible.

With great celebration and joy and fanfare, the day we've waited for is finally (FINALLY) here! In this episode, we're discussing the breathtakingly beautiful, dramatic, moody premiere of A Discovery of Witches TV on Sky, Shudder, AMC Plus, and Sundance Now.

Today is the day when we can finally gush--in extraordinary detail--about costumes and sets and lighting and adaptive choices and casting and the work of art that is the second season of this remarkable series. In addition, we get to talk about HATS and Matthew being a clever little sausage. Lucky us. So, without further ado, please pull up a chair and let's get this Elizabethan Vacation off to a grand and glorious start.

As a side note, we 100% goofed and forgot how to podcast and this episode has a little bitty spoiler section between 1:06h-1:14h. In the future, we will relegate those naughty little buggers to the Spoiler Corner.

We'll be live-tweeting every episode of A Discovery of Witches TV Season 2 as the series is released on streaming platforms, so please join us every Sunday evening at 7pm EST, 4 pm PST using the hashtag #ccalchemy.

Because the universe (and La Harkness) are generous indeed, Deb will be doing a #Witchalong every Sunday at 11AM PST, 2PM EST on her Instagram and Facebook. Peep her details here.

In the meantime, please follow us on Twitter or join our Facebook group, the Chamomile & Clove Clovers, to connect with us and other fans squealing with joy about this remarkable premiere. We can't wait to connect with you and celebrate the triumphant return of Matthew and Diana and all of our favorites.
