85. Important Lessons from Bridge to Terabithia (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Banzai! Run away to the woods with us as we revisit Katherine Paterson’s award-winning novel, Bridge to Terabithia. If you read this as a kid, you probably remember it was emotionally devastating, and we’re here to report…it still is! Jino reread this book at least a hundred times as a kid, perhaps in an effort to keep characters alive within the pages. Michael avoided reading it until now because he heard it was sad (it is), but realized the story was not exactly how it had been described to hi
84. Fairy Logic and Evil Bed Rotting in Sleeping Beauty (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Once upon a dream, you found yourself listening to a podcast about Sleeping Beauty! This classic 1959 Disney film’s stunning artwork and animation was foundational in Michael’s childhood. Victoria loved re-enacting scenes from this movie, particularly the most dramatic “death” reveal as both Maleficent and Aurora.

82. Yuri on Ice Deserves a Second Season - with special guest Michael Wilkins (opens the original)
Read excerpt
If you were on the Internet in 2016, then there’s a pretty high chance that you’ve heard of Yuri!!! on ICE. This sports anime focused on the relationship between Japanese figure skater Yuri Katsuki and Russian figure-skating champion Victor Nikiforov, and it took the world by storm due to, and in spite of, heavy visual censorship. Victoria watched this show as it was released and remembers all the fan theorizing fondly. Jino and Michael were surprised to find that the show did not match their pr
