Alyssa and Jena trace back to their Twilight roots, digging up early TwiHard experiences as young tweens and explaining what made them fall out of love with the sexy yet mostly sexless vampire franchise. But the real question is--what keeps them coming back sixteen years later?

Ep. 1: How Did We Get Here?

This podcast bites. It sucks too. Sixteen years after the release of the ground-breaking YA romance novel, Twilight, two former TwiHards, Jena and Alyssa, consider what made us go rabid over a sparkly-skinned Victorian boy named Edward. We consider not only the impact of Twilight on our culture at large, but its influence on our tween upbringings and whether or not Edward and Bella might have set us up to seek out toxic relationships.
