Avsnitt

  • This week, we conclude our Dungeon Meshi coverage perfectly timed with their season finale (which needless to say, we haven't seen at the time of recording). Join us as we talk about where we've been over the past month and talk about the three fics from Dungeon Meshi we read in that break.

    Grace takes us to a modern magic AU, where monsters are real and so is the thriving monster themed sex toy industry, in 'Accurate Models'. Nick answers a question that has plagued penis-owners for generations ("at what point does it stop being 'just a shake'?") in 'Sword Fighting'. And James once again set out for yuri but found political intrigue in 'Feathers and Fur'. We don't know how this keeps happening to him, but he's very pleased

    Fics and Timestamps*

    Accurate Models by Kurikuri (23:45)

    Sword fighting by Randyrobot (47:10)

    Feathers and Fur by IzutsumiSupremacy (TerminalMiraculosis) (59:00) Chapter four came out the same day we were set to record, so apologies this isn't a full look but I love what I've seen so far!

    *some podcast players don't like hyperlinks, but you can find these on our tumblr too.

  • This week, Grace and James take some time to discuss Real Person Fics. James does know that it is RPF and not RFP, but somehow he manages to get it wrong every single time it comes up in this episode.

    Join us as we learn about the hottest poet of the 17th century, Emperor Nero's thirst traps, debate who to ship David Mitchell with, and many many more.

  • This week, the forecasters get into Dungeon Meshi/Delicious in Dungeon. We came for the fantastic autistic representation and Marcille/Fallin, and while we found that, we also found a surprising amount of thirst for all three foot seven of Chilchuk Tims.

    If that sounds fun, settle in and have a listen.

  • Please sing the title to "Bad Romance", thanks.

    This week, against all odds, we have assembled a Part Two episode for What We Do In The Shadows. Join us at we talk about our favourite fics: James unlocks a secret OTP he didn't know he could want or like in 'I Love You, Colin Robinson'. Nick goes back in time to read Arthur Conan Doyle's very own WWDITS Fanfic, in 'what we do in the shadows (victorian edition)'. And Grace shows us how a Nandor/Guillermo confession would realistically go down, in 'Be Kind, Rewind'.

    Fics and Timestamps*

    I Love You, Colin Robinson by darkshrimemotions (8:30) Part Four is now up, but when we recorded there were only three parts!

  • Hey everyone,

    If you listened to our last episode, you'll know Grace's Internet cut out halfway through recording and Nick and I had no idea when she would be back. So we did the only thing we could: immediately derail the episode to talk about the one topic Grace won't let us cove; beloved and frankly top tier Sci-fi series Farscape.

    If you'd like to here us* simp for Aeryn Sun for about 15 minutes before Grace comes back enjoy this interlude. And if you haven't already, go watch Farscape its really good.

    By the way, we're all ill right now and behind on recording, next proper episode may well be late, but it is coming.

    *James

  • This week, the Forecasters venture into the dark corners of the world where only dark horrors lurk. A place so evil that few speak its name. Staten Island.

Join us as we look at fics written about the exciting new Wonka lore, find our Car-sonas, and learn just how deep the Magnus Carlsen rabbit hole really goes...

  • Happy Romance Day

    Today, after four years of making fun of Grace for her kinks, Nick and James (mostly James) spent an hour revealing they know more than is healthy about the website Pornhub.com and its prominent figures.

    We talk about the delightful stats presented by https://www.pornhub.com/insights/ mostly focusing on the 2023 wrap up.

    Back to the fics next Sunday!

  • Captains Log, Stardate -360700.94.

    We have returned to AO3 to stock up on spicy non-human romance stories. Grace, having been freshly introduced to Star Trek has jumped right into the deep end of Garashir. Nick ever fond of the classics, has brought us some Spirk love, and gives us some Vulcan Rizz along the way. James got his wish from the last episode and found a fic about Gul Dukat, but also stops for a little bit of Boimler/Spock (Spoimler?), but not in a way where anyone has fun.

  • Its time.

    I don't know who let him do this, or how Grace's arm was twisted into it, but James has been allowed to talk about Star Trek. If you thought Nick wasn't normal about trains, you've clearly not asked James which is his favourite Enterprise (its the NX-01, but Sisko is my favourite captain).

    Join us as Grace, Nick and Mostly James talk about Star Trek, the fandom that brought us men in heat and the term 'slashfic' in general. Grace faces the Tuvix Dilemma, Nick discusses his alternative financial plans, and James simps for Best Villain Gul Dukat.

  • This week, we continue to cope with the Good Omens finale by reviewing fics we can substitute for the ending until season three comes by.

    We also answer some pretty heavy questions, like "Would you kick David Tennant out of bed if he was wearing crocs?", "Can an Angel and a Demon make love without exploding?" and of course "Is God Benevolent?"
