In this episode, we break down *Outlander*: a sexy, action-packed historical romance classic. We'll discuss romance as a genre, pronounce Scottish names very badly, and take a long detour to talk about country music.

Talking Points: the inversion of romance tropes, Brexit, violence on screen, villainy, the Female Gaze, our complicated relationships with country music, and the excellent, grounded writing of Diana Gabaldon.
