We've brought back Dating is Dead, and we already wish we didn't. We found the ne…

It's episode 99, which we have decided is the arbitrary penultimate episode of the season. What does that mean? Not much, it turns out. Ian really needed to explain how Love is Blind works though.

Our…

We've got some more publishing industry drama on deck this week, where we dare to ask the question: what the hell happened at the Hugo Awards? TL;DR: stop asking questions it's all fine, and if it wa…

New year, new reasons to realize the internet was a mistake.

Here with a solo pod, because I have some stuff I want to talk about.

Like the new Ari Aster movie, Beau is Afraid, and how it’s a 3 hour long nightmare for the paranoid among us. Specifically me.

We’ve got a packed show for you this week. In Mountains of Madness we talk about Twitter clones and where we’re all supposed to go now that our 20s are over. We can’t keep making accounts forever.
