In today's episode, Megan tells Hilary about the history of cosplay and her place in it, and they reminisce about their time in convention fandom in the mid 2000s. Topics discussed include gatekeeping and why it sucks, owning your plastic surgery because there's nothing wrong with it, and why it's absolutely okay to just enjoy the things you like unabashedly. Recorded in 2020. Happy new year, everyone! :)

In today's episode, Hilary gives Megan the lowdown on the rise and fall and rise again of iconic American rock band My Chemical Romance. Topics discussed include not knowing the ages of rock dudes, the ins and outs of a high concept creative process, and why Gerard Way is so obsessed with the Kennedys (like the rest of us). Special shoutout in the beginning to My Chemical Fancast!

In today's episode, Megan and Hilary explore the characters and situations of Bojack Horseman and the other varied, multifaceted residents of Hollywoo and beyond. Topics discussed include owning your character deficits, diametric opposites serving as foils, good role models in flawed characters, and, somehow, J. Jonah Jameson.

In this (hopefully eagerly awaited) return episode, Megan and Hilary continue our discussion of toxic masculinity with everyone's favorite women written and directed film on the subject, American Psycho. Topics discussed include why Tom Cruise is vital to Patrick Bateman's persona, a hyper wealthy masculine world we will never have access to, the pervasive nature of American pop culture, and why white women will never hold men accountable for their actions. Special brief cameos from Megan's husband and brand new child.

In today's episode, Megan and Hilary dive headfirst into the misogynistic waters of the Fight Club fandom, for both book and film. Topics discussed include leading the examined life, why men need to stop blaming women for everything, how Marla is probably the best character in the work, and the weird love triangle between a man with DID and Jared Leto.

In today's episode, which is part two of a two parter tackling Harry Potter, Megan and Hilary delve more into the fandom side of things and also why Jo Rowling sucks.

In part one of a two part episode, Megan and Hilary talk about Hilary's longstanding history with Harry Potter. We talk a lot about Jo being a TERF in this one, y'all, so buckle up. We also talk a lot about Jo being a TERF in the next one, so double buckle up. Other topics include the fandom in general and fanfiction culture.

On today's episode, Megan and Hilary (mostly Megan, with Hilary kind of following along) talk about all adaptations of Death Note - anime, manga, and unfortunate Netflix movie. Topics discussed include Megan insisting that it's a Japanese exclusive tale, Hilary contemplating how an American adaptation could have been handled better, Shonen Jump's reigning days, and how Shinigami can't do the do. (Can you tell Hilary wrote this summary? Anyway, make a Cuban Miami adaptation happen.)

In today's episode, Megan and Hilary delve into their past (and present!) fandom antics, from AMVs (well, VGMVs) to self-insert fanfiction. Topics discussed include Megan setting a KH AMV to Shiksa Goddess, Hilary's Mary Sue fic in the Holes fandom when she was 11, and how fanworks have evolved over the last decade plus that we've been fans. (Hilary is writing fic right now. No, you cannot have a link.)

In today's episode, Megan and Hilary air out their grievances about the backlash re: Hamilton, a musical that has been out for five years and whose soundtrack has been on Spotify and iTunes for the last four years, for the love of God. Your outrage is LATE. This is a spicy one, y'all. Topics discussed include how to enjoy things critically, suspension of disbelief, and why white people really love to make things about themselves while failing to take actual responsibility.
