SPIN-OFF: Mid Season Edition

S2E01 - Allison Argent

Draw, aim, fire! Sandile and Fadzai begin the Teen Wolf season by discussing the huntress herself, the Allison Argent. The deuteragonist of the series (at least during her time on the show), Allison arrives in Beacon Hills to begin her junior year, and quickly becomes a love interest for the lead, Scott McCall. Over time, though, she learns the truth about werewolves and the supernatural goings-on in town, as well as secrets about her family - the Argents - and their position as hunters of the supernatural. Her physical prowess, common sense intelligence, and her capacity for empathy, make her a key and memorable part of the show, even beyond her untimely death.

S2 - Teen Wolf (Intro)

Sandile and Fadzai prepare to return to Beacon Hills as they discuss the subject of the second season of the podcast - Teen Wolf. A bit of a chaotic entry for supernatural drama of its era, the show ran on MTV from 2011-2017, and developed a niche but strong following that remains well after its conclusion. Join your hosts for this brief introduction before jumping into the first official episode, and the first of many characters that made the show so iconic. Questions, queries, or just to say hi!
