The Cottage: We’re Still Here

Hyperfixation Hotline Yap: Frenchnbookish

On this week’s Hyperfixation Hotline yap we had the absolute pleasure of talking to Naomi AKA frenchnbookish: the Heated Rivalry social media Wallpaper Queen™️ and PA to your favourite romantasy authors. We chat about everything from our mutual obsession with the show, meeting Rachel Reid, her rising star career and the now infamous Ilya breast pump wallpaper. What an actual legend. Saddle up.

The HudCon Gala

Welcome to what we fear may be our most chaotic episode yet, and join our debrief after the collective crashout that occurred on the first Monday in May. Is there any sort of structure to this episode? Barely. Did we debate whether it was wise to even release this episode? Absolutely. The delirium was high, please forgive us. Saddle up. PS: we left an addendum at the end of the episode to discuss the smoking video. It was important to us.

Hyperfixation Hotline Yap: Ruby Barrett

Drumroll please: This week’s Hyperfixation Hotline Yap is with none other than Ruby Barrett, romance author and one half of the infamous Loon Call podcast. She’s coming in hot with the best craic. Clearly three neurodivergent people should not record a podcast with no time limit as the yap is EXTENSIVE. We chat about everything from our unshakeable Heated Rivalry obsession, her journey as an author, latest controversies in the fandom and distinguishing the difference between being chased by a lion and interviewing Jacob Tierney. Saddle up and mind the gap (will become clear when the episode is digested).

The Cottage: We’re Still Here

And just like that we’re at The Cottage. We actually felt a bit emotional finishing up our review of this show that has permanently altered our brain chemistry. This wk we discuss head canon Shane and Ilya glambots and the importance of accountability, kindness and acceptance. Did we try wrap it all up into a nice short episode? Yes. Did we succeed? No. Thanking you in advance for your patience to withstand listening to us yap for two hours. Okei, love you bye.

We Believe in EVERYTHING

Episode 6: We Believe in Everything, is finally here! Do we yap for almost 2 hours? Yes. Are we in a constant state of mania due to reviewing our beloved episode 5 of Heated Rivalry? Also yes. We discuss the insanity of the last few weeks and the support from the gorgeous loons. We answer some burning listener questions and the Hyperfixation Hotline Husband makes a disruptive appearance. All the while we are hardly keeping it together to discuss this masterpiece of TV. Saddle up.
