  • Good ideas but DNF

    I had to turn off the podcast because they’re still in the “Rhys is perfect, Tamlin is evil” phase of the reading journey, and ALL of their speculation goes through that lens.

    Rhysand is going to go down as the sexiest, most powerful character in the history of literature because he can make grown women in the real world make every excuses for his actions, live on a podcast in front of the whole world. Even going as far as to allude that the waving red flags that Sarah has written in are mista... more

  • Amazing podcast!

    Long time lurker, doing my part to review amazing content & creators. Abby & Ronnie are great for deep dives & literary analysis in a sea of the superficial. I appreciate the hard work they put into crafting each episode, the unique takes, the sometimes weird and wacky precog corner, and most importantly— the receipts! Keep up the amazing work ladies, I truly look forward to Monday mornings because of you!

  • Yep— these ladies are coming for the truth in these pages.

    I love this pod, and I listen to lots on books and they don’t just dive in— they jumped the cruise ship and have started swimming in the deep ocean with little care of when they find land again. They really just go after the deets and brings receipts. Worth the listen.

  • The best cure to your fantasy book hangover

    I’ve been listening to this podcast since it first aired, and it is by far my FAVORITE! Abby and Ronnie have basically become my own Amari and Cthona, I clock in every Sunday night to get in the new dragon deets, and then spend the rest of the week when I’m driving, getting ready, taking a bath, falling asleep, etc registering to episodes. The theory exploration never gets old. It reminds me of when I reread a book and discover new things, but with them, I relisten to a podcast and always end up... more
