We’re taking a trip back to Forks to discuss New Moon, the second book in the Twilight saga. Let’s talk about death, youth, religion, and racism—and why Edward being a creep is less troubling than Bella wanting to be young forever.

Back when we recorded this, it was peak spooky season, so enjoy some Halloween recommendations in, uh, mid-November. Also, Dune.

WWBUT 64 – Put That on My Tombstone
This is a what we’ve been up to episode, but it’s also an impromptu analysis of Promising Young Woman, complete with some minor spoilers. Consider yourselves warned!
It’s officially the 90s, and it’s time to talk about metrosexuality, Michelle Yeoh, and torture scenes as we dive into Pierce Brosnan’s take on James Bond.
Some weeks there’s a surprisingly unified theme to what we’ve been up to, and then there’s this week. We’ve got horror movies, mushrooms, and, uh, spicy book content once again.

Episode 163 – James Bond – Randos
James Bond is a seriously weird franchise. In this episode, we’re tackling the short-lived, non-canon Bond stories: Casino Royale (1967), On Her Majesty’s Secret Service, Never Say Never Again, and both Timothy Dalton films.
Taking a week off sure left us with a lot to talk about, and we even cut a few things out! (We’ll miss you, Goethe’s Faust.) Join us as we catch you up on what’s been going on in our spare time.
