Episode 30 All About Our Lore
In this episode, Cass and Deb deep dive something totally new and yet extremely familiar: Themselves! They weave through their history with media, from the foundational movies that made them who they are (with direct lines they can draw from their favorite romance as a child to their favorite Bridgerton couple), to the teen shows and franchises that made them, and into their adulthood obsessions that are still with them to this day. Join these two for the surprises, tangents, and delightful digressions of this fun episode all about your hosts and what they love. A quick note from Cass and Deb: we discuss the Harry Potter franchise in this episode as we want to acknowledge our own history with the IP. We want to make completely clear that we support the trans community unequivocally and do not support any of the damaging rhetoric and actions that have been committed against them.
