New episode out now! We cover a comic book for the first time on the podcast for our 69th episode! (Nice.) The four of us read Volume 1 of Wicked Things by John Allison and Max Sarin.
We discuss the character of Charlotte Grote, the teen detective, and how her methods compare to other crime-solvers we’ve encountered.
We love the visual art style and how it feels animated, get slightly confused by some of the plotlines, and wonder about the specific alternate reality of this world where everyone knows famous teen detectives.
We also talk about the medium of comic books and how the storytelling is different, the uncertain nature of issue runs, and how we’re talking about a very visual medium on a very auditory podcast.
Katy cares about our social media, Carrie gets jealous of a blazer, Maddy gasped while reading, and Mack had to Google British slang.
We also discuss the impermanence of our consumerism-driven world, confirm we don’t feel bad when corporations are stolen from, debate what exactly constitutes an 18-bird roast, and learn what not to do when waking up in a hospital.
Listen to hear about grocery store crushes, getting trapped in a skate bowl, childhood comic drawings, and a great Halloween witch impression. Plus one of us gets a Happy Meal delivery in the middle of recording! Poop poop!
