Do ya feel lucky? Punk! This week, V and Emily are so, so, sososo delighted by a new-to-them fandom: Harry/Johnny, which is technically -- technically -- the Dirty Harry fandom, but is REALLY just an offshoot of Starsky & Hutch. Created wholecloth by two fannish friends based on a single look in the middle of a movie that is only the second out of five in a series that is Decidedly Not Slashy, Harry/Johnny was a hugely influential slash fandom of the 1980s and WE LOVE IT SO MUCH NOW. Come be totally delighted with us!

Rereading the Revolution - Whether it was a reaction to the politics of the time or the rapidly approaching end date of the Mayan calendar, the pop-cultural landscape of the early 2010s can be best remembered for one thing: dystopian literature. Join plucky young heroines Daphne and Kellie as they dive into all of your favorite young adult novels and series from this era as we reread the revolution. We lived through it once and are back to recap, review, and discuss all the best and worst that the world-shifting genre of YA fiction has to offerāthe sci-fi, the fantasy, and the supernaturalāat least until our society crumbles and we have to survive a brave new world.
The Pieces - Alright babes, Bimini is here with their very own podcast! Bimini is challenging the world around us and asking how the experiences weāve lived have made us the people we are today.
