Aliya and Tanner are back to celebrate Jordan's birthday and take a walk down memory lane. We talk about iPod nanos and Aliya's favorite book series growing up, Wicked Lovely. (Tanner also suggested that they do a read through of the first chapter on Patreon, so be sure to check that out!) T

Content Warning: This episode deals with suicidal idealization from minute 18 to  25.50 minutes. 

In this episode the love triangle between Mercedes, Sean and Kristen heats up and Jordan talks Kristen out of hurting herself. But then, in true Aliya fashion, the chapter ends with Jordan and Kyle talking about birthdays and completely ignores the intensity of the pages prior. 

Tanner also informs Aliya on the three kinds of people in the world, and discuss how the next chapter will end on a cliffhanger. 

In this episode, Aliya and Tanner are joined by special guest: Stephanie Hofmann — Aliya's girlfriend. After Aliya recaps the last few episodes for Stephanie and makes fun of Tanner, we start a new section of Tanner's story where we met a princess who survived genocide and is a little to comfortable around strangers. 

 

In this episode, everyone's actions finally catch up with them as the crew is visited by two officers -- including the one that shot Kyle -- and make a choice to trust the police. Tanner and Aliya are skeptical in seeing how that's going to turn out. Also in this chapter, Natalie and Jordan have a conversation about how Natalie is handling her cannibas addiction. 

In this episode, the family has to deal with the shop's vandalization and find new ways to bring in money. Fortunately, Jordan, Kyle, William and Ashton are on the case! They work on stealing food, using any means necessary. Also, William goes on a date and talks about being gay to Jordan. This episode also ends with a cliff hanger that might destroy everything the crew has built.

Tanner and Aliya also discuss if it's someone complimenting you on an outfit you gave them a genuine compliment about the person in the clothes or the clothes themselves. Aliya also discusses Michael Scott's obvious closeted bisexuality.  

First episode of 2021! (Even though we recorded it in 2020.) In this one Aliya and Tanner meet the Lady of the Lake in Tanner's story, who is Aliya's type.  They also discuss how Tanner keeps killing off all his female characters and what that says about him. In this chapter, there's tons of death and fighting and water activities. 

Baby Aliya's chapters are getting longer! In this episode, a month after the tragic events that occurred in the chapter prior, Jordan blows off some steam by going to a night club double date with Kyle, Andrea and Ashton. Plus, Jordan makes an unlikely ally that is the fuel of baby gay Aliya's dreams. 

Tanner and Aliya also talk about having pie for breakfast, sharing clothes with significant others and Aliya throwing a party to honor Tanner's future death.  Happy holidays~

Tanner and Aliya are back with a three chapter episode! Drama unfolds in this one as we learn more about Vincent and William's past, and there's an unfortunate run-in with the boy gang in Junction City. Get your tissues out for this one!

Tanner and Aliya are back and this time Tanner is drunk! After trying to hit on the handyman that visited his apartment to no avail, he does what any gay would do: drink and tell his best friend a story. In this episode our prince starts to bond with the boy he rescued, but when the boy learns who the prince really is during a bloody battle, will the boy be willing to join the prince on his quest? Listen to find out!
