Episodes 2.18 & 2.19: “You Can’t Be a Shark If You’re Toothless”
Today we cover episodes 2.18, “A Kiss Before Lying”, and 2.19, “The Naked Truth”. We talked about lying (surprise!), Noel Kahn’s thesis on gender, Hollis College trying to colonize New Orleans, and the Jason reveal we’ve been waiting for. We once again get very sad and mad about Maya’s storyline. In this house, we believe that bees are not animals, glaciers melt faster now, and MMA is gay.
Content notes: discussion of Lolita from 40:30 to 57:35, which includes discussions of rape of a child by adults, victim-blaming, and a brief mention of sadomasochism
Theme song by Ashok R. Chandran. You can also read the episode transcript.
Chickpeas Oh My Gosh: The Easiest Curry by celebrity guest Hannah!
Fashion Analysis: Our worst and best outfits, plus some others we talked about!
Cameron Gets Academic On Us
- What we know as “revenge porn” should actually be called non-consenual distribution of intimate images
- The You’re Wrong About episode debunking myths about teens sexting
Deepa’s Literary Analysis
- Vladimir Nabokov’s Lolita has a lot of relevance for PLL, and Vivian Darkbloom is not only an anagram but a very minor character in the book who is... the writing partner of an abuser
- Everyone in Agatha Christie books has an office gun
- We didn’t discuss this in the episode, but A Kiss Before Dying is in fact a crime thriller novel about a man who scams and murders women
Things We Referenced Completely Unrelated to PLL
- The episode of New Girl called “Girl Fight” (lol)
- We hate John Mulaney and his bit about teenagers bullying him or whatever
- Floodlines is a really good eight-episode investigative podcast about Hurricane Katrina and anti-Black racism
- “Glaciers, gender, and science: A feminist glaciology framework for global environmental change” (Carey et al. 2016) is probably the only climate change thing Deepa will discuss on this pod
