Ep 39: Brain on Fire

Brain on Fire, a memoir about a young woman who suffered from a rare autoimmune disease that ravaged her brain for a month, can be summed up with the following quote from this episode: "We all have dumb brains, and that's...terrifying." We talk about investigating one's own past, the pitfalls of the movie adaptation's focus, and what a clock looks like.

Ep 38: The Host

In 2008, Stephenie Meyer took a break from sexy vampire stories and published an adult sci-fi novel. It had some potentially fascinating ethical quandaries, a fair amount of problematic ideas surrounding romance, and some concepts that were beat for beat identical to what occured in the Twilight Saga. We revisit a bit from last episode, pitch our bisexual rewrite of the story, and disparage some bad acting.
