    My gorgeous pal Indigo is one of the pod team, when I found out about the pod I gave it a listen but I hadn’t seen Heartstopper and so most of it went over my head. HOWEVER, I have since binged Heartstopper from start finish and then was bereft that I have to wait for 2026 for the film to get more Heatstopper joy! Then I remembered this pod!! I can now keep living in the Heartstopper world listening to people who are as obsessed with the show as me! Have gone back and have been listening from th... more

  • Wildly entertaining podcast

    What a delightful group of people! Honestly I’d listen to them cover any show, but their heartstopper coverage is the joyous, funny, loving and smartly critical review I was looking for. Love that they’re covering the books too! I dance whenever the theme for this pod starts, and it perfectly encapsulates the fun you’re about to have listening. Wishing the best for everyone on this and for more fans to listen!

  • Love this podcast! Especially, Episode 2 Part 2 and how candid the hosts are with their struggles with mental health. It's so relatable. I struggle with my mental health as well and was nodding along to everything they said. It so should be talked about more. Thank you for this! ❤️
