It's so rare for me to keep a schedule line this for so long.

We mention girth in a few different contexts this episode so please enjoy. As usual, please Like, Comment, and Subscribe as it's very motivating for us.

This is our Christmas-episode-before-we-thought-about-when-it-would-be-published episode in which we discuss everything but Christmas.

S1 E2 - Ripping young adult fiction a new one

The Shitcast ·

2024/12/10

Mel and I are back with more asides: this time covering television, movies, and books. I didn't accidentally make it look like Mel was excited about anal due to my editing this episode. There is one part where we were talking about how shit the Divergent series is and it's not immediately clear that I've switched back to talking about Twilight, but I swear this was just me and not the result of editing. I think I actually looked at the agenda twice during this one so that must mean we're
