Apologies for the delay (and the audio feedback in our fun segment), but we are REALLY getting into some juicy moments from Six of Crows as we discuss chapters 7-9. Look forward to our first LIVE EPISODE recording at LeakyCon Chicago later this summer! Matthias is fueled by revenge, a misplaced sense of justice, and repression What’s so hard to understand about this: Kaz has a good reason for EVERYTHING he does  There’s a good reason the chapters focus on one character but from another character’s perspective (cough… Jesper and Wylan… cough) It takes more than just big muscles to whoops someone’s ass Fun Segment: Set the Scene, “Bluey” edition! Question of the week: If you were part of the Ice Court job, which of the Crows do you think is the most valuable? Next time: Chapters 10-11!

Happy Pride Month! This week, we are discussing chapters 5 and 6 of Six of Crows. We’re breaking into prison, so that we can break into prison later, so we can break into even more prison even later. Hope you like fan claps, because there’s a lot of them.  Kaz and Nina: the light side and the dark side of determination.  Is the Barrel SUPPOSED to be this tacky?  It’s okay to be a sex worker, but the Barrel doesn’t seem like the ideal place to do it.  Hellgate is suspiciously easy to get into and (we assume) out of.  How many times should we have stopped and read Shadow and Bone first? Fun Segment: Geoff and Julianna’s Friendship Corner: Pride Edition! Question of the week: How do you celebrate Pride Month? Show us, tell us, share with us! Email us or DM us your answer!

This week we have a guest spot we did with the amazing Book and Bottle Podcast: Callisa and Holly are joined by Julianna and Geoff in this review episode of Ninth House and Hell Bent by Leigh Bardugo. They discuss the heavy triggers within the book, the descent into Hell, and of course glowstick dick energy. Ninth House and Hell Bent follow the main character, Alex Stern, as she gets a new chance at life when she's invited to a secret magical society at Yale because she can see ghosts. However, murders, chaos, and corruption soon follow. WARNING: SPOILERS AND EXPLICIT CONTENT. Also, be sure to check the specific triggers of each book.

Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to listen to this episode where Kaz gets a mission! Geoff has a BIG surprise for Julianna Kaz vs. Jan Van Eck: who’s the real bad guy?
