Avsnitt

  • All that it takes to make this podcast end is to really want it to. Welcome to the final episode of season one! Yes, Clio and Mireille are incredibly old, and probably body-swapped, and almost certainly living in a dream world, but at least they can't read each other's minds. So nothing can stop them from discussing the pairing of Faith and Buffy from Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

    The fan fiction discussed is End Racism in the OTW | Just A Counterfeit James Dean by impertinence.

  • Mireille and Clio might turn evil if they ever experience a moment of perfect happiness. Thankfully the pairing of Buffy and Angel from Buffy the Vampire Slayer just makes them angry. (Despite their special guest, Meredith's, best attempts to win them over).

  • In this episode on Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, Clio and Mireille take on the pairing of Shuri and Namor of Talokan. All Clio wants is eventual smut, preferably involving the ghost of Killmonger, and all Mireille wants is to understand the reproductive capabilities of immortal beings. It's a normal Thursday.

  • In this episode on the Marvel movie Black Panther, Clio quotes Virgil and Bourdieu. Mireille only stops talking about incest long enough to explain the Omegaverse. I think we can all agree that at least one of them deserves to be thrown off a waterfall. But WHICH ONE? And can they set aside their enmity long enough to record a podcast episode? In this iteration of the time loop, for one brief shining moment, the answer is yes.

    The fan fictions discussed are All the Stars (Are Closer) by joidianne4eva and The Definition of Insanity by MildSpinning.

  • In a brutal fight to the death between Clio and Mireille about the pairing of Ji-yeong and Sae-byeok in Netflix's Squid Game, only one can triumph - although both could fail. Mireille is armed only with allegations that Clio will someday hallucinate a squid demon. Clio is buffered by an irrational hatred of time loops. There are no real winners in this cruel game, but in the end (if it ever comes) you may be comforted by the thought that this podcast, like all children, is a demon of love.

    The fan fictions discussed are The Monster You Created by uisceB, five times sae-byeok watched ji-yeong die (and the one time she didn't) by Aleethebee, and Winners, Losers, Beggars, Choosers by rmwfbl.

  • In the second episode on the television show Succession, Clio blames the quality of her fan fiction on two separate buses and capitalism. Mireille questions the extent to which Clio is influenced by The Notebook. Brunch menus are analyzed, the purpose of art is determined to be to elicit horror and despair, and the pairing of Tom and Roman is repeatedly suggested. Clio says she's not into it, but her Freudian slips say otherwise. Listen and weep - if all else fails, you can always wipe your tears on your cat.

  • In the first of two episodes about the television show Succession, Clio and Mireille browbeat each other about the pairing of Greg Hirsch and Tom Wambsgans. Mireille reveals at least one, if not two, embarrassing crushes. Clio tries to remember the themes of The Great Gatsby. They do all of this almost, but not quite, without talking about incest. We always knew this would end in tears...

    This is maybe not so much of a trigger warning as an obvious fact about this pairing, but the discussion touches on workplace sexual harassment.

    The fan fictions discussed are Blue Light by jupitersprings and There Are Vibes by Scrunyuns.

  • Clio and Mireille spit in the face of romance by discussing three gen fics (fictions that do not center around a romantic pairing), arguing with ChatGPT about the origins of their podcast, and mispronouncing "Batman." We live in a vale of tears, romance is dead, and ChatGPT is extremely rude, but don't blame Clio and Mireille; they are just the messengers.

    CW: this episode contains some discussion of incest.

  • Clio and Mireille return to the classic romantic pairing of Elizabeth Bennet and Fitzwilliam Darcy from Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice. The fan fictions they discuss this week place these characters in the modern day, a setting that leads to some important questions and a little soul-searching. Corporate lawyers, half-British people, the academic job market as marriage plot, and the value of the Humanities: come for the romance, stay for the existential dread.

    The fan fictions discussed are Franchise by irislim and some say it makes the world go round, some say that's absurd by loversinfiniteness.
