Fort Salem Witching Hour

S3E07 - Pink Cardigans of Justice

In this episode we find out who the traitor in the Council  of the Great River (hint: it's not one of the unnamed extras). Things go sideways pretty quickly as Millie attempts to grab power with the help of the Camarilla. Because things never go wrong for native people when they put their trust in the American government, amirite? Anacostia inexplicably thinks this would be an ideal time for her to peace out and go on her own side mission, so it's left to Abigail and Adil to defend the Marshalls and the other people in the Cession. Abigail kicks some ass, snaps some necks and is generally awesome as she rallies the witch army to subvert the Camarilla's plans. Meanwhile, the unlikely duo of Tally and Scylla get together to free Thelma Bearkiller and the other Council members. They get an assist from the local Dodger community along the way. Sarah Alder takes a trip to Spain where she runs into the former lore master of the Camarilla. They have a tense exchange but Alder gets the info she's looking for. You can tell the lore master wants to ask her a bunch of questions, but she just leaves him hanging. Literally. Finally, Raelle returns! So I guess that means it's Scylla's turn to be kidnapped, because god forbid we get our gals in the same place this season. Having said that, we do get two favorite pairings back together, as Talder reunite to do some kind of back to the future magic spell and Anacostia and Nicte decide to join forces. Sorry this episode took so long, but we're staying firm on our commitment to finish out the season, so we've still got 3 more to go. Hopefully we'll get them all out in 2023 ;) As always, we appreciate you leaving ratings or reviews on iTunes, Spotify and other platforms.

S3E06 - Book Club Bandits

After a hiatus of approximately eleventy billion years, your trusty co-hosts are finally back on the mic and ready to recap the rest of season 3 of Motherland Fort Salem. In this episode, the gang splits up to do a variety of side quests. Tally goes home to find her mother a little less peace-loving-hippie and a lot more let's-burn-this-mf'er-down. Abigail escorts Alder back to Fort Salem, where some people (Petra) are happy to see Abigail but other people (Feral Penelope) are a lot less pleased. Finally, Scylla and Edwin go on an epic road trip together, featuring lots of terrible dad jokes and some teary reunions with dead terrorist mushroom spouses. Luckily everyone gets their errands done just in the nick of time, because an invasion force is headed right for the Cession. Ruh roh.  As always, we appreciate you leaving ratings or reviews on iTunes, Spotify and other platforms. Hit us up on Twitter (or Instagram and Tumblr) and talk with us about the show!

S3E05 - Meet the Council

In this surprisingly short episode, the Unit finally gets their day in court, as they are called before the Great River Council to answer for their mischief in the Cession. We love the diverse range of characters representing the seven languages and people of the Cession. Of particular interest is the salty Thelma Bearkiller, who makes an instant impact. While the group awaits the verdict, Tally is busy trying to figure out if you can fight the future, or if fate is pre-determined and unchangeable. Alder shows off her mycellium vacation home to the other Stewards of the First Song, before she heads back to the surface to say hi to Tally and also to pulverize some Camarilla who dare to attack my precious Edwin Collar. Alban Hearst yet again escapes his fate, which is annoying, though we love the campy goodness the actor continues to bring to the role. Also: Anacostia and Sterling escape the Camarilla's clutches. But they have troubling intel to share, since the army that the Camarilla has assembled is pretty scary looking. Dun dun dun! We review how we felt about the first half of Season 3 and what we're most looking forward to in the back half. We also take your questions.  As always, we appreciate you leaving ratings or reviews on iTunes, Spotify and other platforms.

S3E04 - President Wade Gets Some

In this episode, we get a variety of interesting pairings: some spicy (Nicte/Scylla), some sweet (Adil sexy dancing for Abigail), some sexy (Wade/Marshall), and some just packed with raw, unclassifiable chemistry (Tally and all her scene partners).  Tally and M have a particularly nice moment where M discusses the difficulty navigating a witch world divided along gender lines as a non-binary person. Meanwhile, the pairing of Anacostia and Sterling attend a very un-fun party, where they're made to fight to the death against other witches. Things get very stabby.  The Camarilla make their next move, as newly sworn in President Silver appoints a civilian oversight committee to make the witches' lives that much more miserable. I can't wait for Wade to come back and crush this bug, y'all. Finally, Tally has visions of the future, and things like a little too explode-y for Raelle for my taste.

S3E03 - Roadhouse Reunion

In this episode, the Bellweather Unit gets even more fractured. Adil, Abigail and Tally seek out Khalida, but end up picking up Sarah Alder in the process. Talder fans had a good number of moments between Tally and Alder. Alder is definitely changed - no longer is she the stern general with the perfect hairdo. This Alder wants to nothing more than to drink tequila, eat nachos, and watch Tally Craven dance sexy for her. We here at the podcast approve of this new version. Alas, the fun can't go on forever, because Alder is on a quest to collect all the seeds of the First Song. Meanwhile, Nicte and Scylla spend some quality time together working on their hand-to-hand combat techniques. It doesn't matter, because the Marshalls easily capture them, along with the rest of the unit. Cession jail looks nicer than real world jail, as the gang is imprisoned in a fancy old manor, where I'm sure tensions will stay low and no sexy times will be had. Alban Hearst meets up with Kara Brandt and has a very confusingly sexually charged conversation with her. This inspires him to cut his vocal chords out, in favor of an upgrade. Finally, President Wade tries to move against VP Silver, but the Camarilla beat her to the punch and blow up the White House before she can make a public address condemning the VP. Oh no!
