Read/Unread

Another week, Another Carol for Another Christmas! In this edition of Jackie and Nicole Analyze So Many Christmas Carol Adaptations, They Might Explode,  it's Rod Serling's very 1964 'adaptation' which 'stars' Peter Sellers. In the most political installment of this podcast yet, our hosts discuss such seasonal topics as isolationism, the UN, the early days of the Vietnam War, and The West Wing. 

Next week: Apple TV+'s Spirited!

It's a very hot Christmas with one of us coming in as a Scrooge and one of us coming in as a Tiny Tim for NBC's TV movie musical from 2004 starring Kelsey Grammer. Will hearts and minds be changed?

We're cool, we're hip, we do looser adaptations. Jackie and Nicole are back with another Christmas Carol installment and, honestly, they're a little Scroogier than they expected to be.

We're back with a holiday run of episodes! Pour yourself some wassail and steam up a pudding because we've got a Christmas goose's worth of adaptations for you, ya Scrooge.

Surprise! We're *still* in Westeros! The Good Queen threw our asses in the black cell for talking smack about her daddy but that can't stop these intrepid podcasters. Jackie and Nicole are talking all things HOTD on this fresh episode of Read/Unread. It's Matt Smith, female friendships and time jumps galore as Jackie ruins Nicole's day by telling her what GRRM actually wrote. Join us, won't you!

We're back in Westeros, baby! Jackie read the books, Nicole did not but both have OPINIONS (especially on Matt Smith). Is HOTD worthy of the GoT theme? Are Alicent and Rhaenyra the female friends we've always wanted? HOW OLD IS VISERYS!?! None of these questions answered and more in this week's Read/Unread.

Join for a too-thorough analysis of the first five episodes of House of the Dragon. Fire & Blood as well as HOTD spoilers abound!

Netflix released a bonus episode so we did too! 

CONTENT WARNING: Just like the episode itself, this podcast contains discussion of assault.

Forgive some of our sound issues as we approach the end of Season One. Do we think the king of Dreams stuck the landing? How excited are we for the future? Will our final season ratings be what you expect?
