Howdy Lovely Listeners! Terence is back and we unpack all of the shocking events in Episode 6 of The Vampire Lestat, "Montreal." Louis and Lestat's "fog of love" had them out here in these Montreal streets acting like two dumb b*tches looking at each other and saying exaaacccccctly. 

Episode Highlights:

• Of course we revisit our poster color theory after the Akasha red poster dropped. 
• We love that Louis and Lestat both went out and got their hair done in preparation for the worst . . . date night . . . EVER!
• Inspired by Daniel's snarky "Taylor and Travis" comment, Terence and I talk about a few gold star celebrity spouses.
• Loustat! Loustat! Loustat! Yearning is back!
• We learn that having HBO at his hotels is apparently important to Lestat, so we make a few recs for his viewing pleasure.  
• Move over Fraudia, the real Claudia is back and she does not mince words when it comes to her dads/uncle/brother.
• And of course we get into that shocking ending. Daniel and Armand . . . you will CRUMBLE!

Friendly reminder: we drink, we know things, we use adult language, and we have a great time.

As always, I am delighted to have Terence Johnson back with me to unpack the latest messy vampire shenanigans in Episode 5 of The Vampire Lestat, "New York." On behalf of Terence and I, I would like to notify Rolin Jones that we will be sending our therapy bills to him and we may just file a class action lawsuit on behalf to the entire fandom.  This episode wore us out in all the best ways!

Main topics include:

• At long last, we get into poster color theory and what implications Team Pink vs. Team Lime Green may have for our faves. 
• We embrace our chaos gremlin energy for a lively discussion about which historical figures we'd like to see Louis in a situationship with in a limited series in which he basically Forrest Gumps his way through Black history.  AMC, green light this show! 
• We unpack why Lestat chose to fake his death.
• I convince Terence to move Louis up the therapy priority list after all of the deeply concerning developments with him and Regina. 
• Lots of Loustat, particularly how we continue to see Lestat's love for Louis despite all they have been through. 
• Although we're still wrapping our minds around it, we're intrigued by the developments in the Daniel/Gremlin dynamic.  
• A new vampire has entered the chat, welcome Marius. 
• Akasha!

Happy Wine Wednesday! 

Special guest Terence Johnson is back with me to unpack episode four of The Vampire Lestat.  "The Devil's Road" was a rollercoaster of power plays, dark secrets, and chilling moments. In this episode:

• More tour bus bathroom revelations.  Give folks some privacy!
• Daniel Malloy’s solitary hobbies: Cry for help or just a vampire’s routine?
• Armand works the steps and we are highly amused by it. We also talk about the interesting dynamics between Armand and his first fledgling.  The bowling alley confrontation felt like a salty son confronting his deadbeat dad.  That second discussion . . . the vibes were interesting. 
• Why on earth did Armand go to that concert?!
• Nothing feels safe about Louis and Regina. 
• I ask Terence which of these vampires is in most urgent need of therapy.  We had different POVs on whose first in line.  This was so much fun!

Friendly reminder: we drink, we know things, we use adult language, and we have a great time.

Terence and I are back to discuss "Toronto", the third episode in Season 1 of The Vampire Lestat.  Due to some tech issues on my end, this episode is a two parter.

We continue our exploration of unreliable narration (I'm obsessed!), speculate on character motivations, and applaud the show's bold visual choices. 

In Part 1, we discussed:

• Louis' choice of contact card for his allegedly casual relationship with Lemuel
• Loud, terrible bathroom sex
• Who tampered with Daniel's footage - Lestat, Gabriella, or the two in partnership with each other?
• The Magnus of it all
• The sad story of Nicky, Lestat (and the Gremlin Armand)
• More vampire abilities revealed

In this episode (Part 2), we cover:

• Prayer circle for Regina
• Lestat crashes out, but also seems to have a breakthrough
• The Gremlin Armand continues to both thrill us and creep us out

Thank you so much for listening!
