'Every Summer After' Episodes 6,7 & 8

'House of the Dragon' Rhaenyra Triumphant

Summary: Rhaenyra Targaryen is learning in real time how to win friends & influence people. Turns out, occupying the Iron Throne requires more than just serving face... it also means you have to serve your people. Rhaenyra is dealing with stabilizing her kingdom, fending off a bloodthirsty Daemon, trying (and failing) to appease Corlys, grieving her son, and everything else that is required of her. P.S she's now broke. On this episode of Femme & Furious, we're diving into the expectations placed on women in leadership, the idea of false prophets, and what happens when the realization of the crushing reality that you can't "have it all" sinks in.

'House of the Dragon' Queen's Landing Slay-by-Slay

Summary: If there's one thing HotD does well, it's center the women. Our two girlie pops, Alicent & Rhaenyra, are finally together again, and we need to make some space for the sexual tension and trauma that's about to enter the chat. This was a beautiful episode exploring grief and the consequences of war and power. It's an episode that explores 3 different women, all with the title Queen, who have varying degrees of power in a place literally called "King's Landing". As we sit with the heartbreaking aftermath of the Battle of the Gullet, the emotional fallout hits just as hard as the physical one. Meanwhile, Aemond and Daemon continue their testosterone-fueled race toward mutual destruction, and the Queens continue to prove they're the most compelling players on the board.

On the other hand, the integrity of the book is out the window and we need to just accept the rollercoaster ride we're on. Who needs Percy & Sam when we have Jordie and Chantal? There are some really rich feminist themes woven through these few episodes and also some questionable choices. Who are we to judge? We stan some messy drama CHAPTERS: 00:00 Hot Gril Hot Take: Episode Intro 00:49 Introducing 2 Femme, 2 Furious, a cultural salon 14:24 Obligatory Dance Break 15:51 Episode 3: Playing with Fire 48:53 Episode 4: Anatomy of a Romance 01:11:17 Episode 5: I choose you 01:28:26 Feminist Follow-Through 01:30:43 Burn Book: Episode Superlatives 01:32:34 Scheduling Changes Feminist Follow-Through: No matter how chaotic and unnecessary the passport drama was with Chantal, it would have been significantly worse IRL. Let's be real, this US Admin is not favorable to people crossing boarders, and with her expired passport, Chantal would have been in a pretty bad situation. So many immigrants in this country are facing a far worse situation, so let's protect our most vulnerable and call our reps and stop migrant abuse at ICE centers.

Bisexual Baddie Draft with Capri Campeau

Summary: The Fairy Bi Mother, AKA Capri Campeau, has visited Femme & Furious. Not only are we hanging out with queer royalty and a gem of a human, but Capri & Julia dive into all things bisexual baddie related. There are ten categories, ranging from characters to items, all celebrating what it is to be bi. Happy Pride Month to everyone listening. Feminist Follow-Through: For this episode, Capri has requested that all feminist efforts go towards supporting her bestie and co-host, Ashley Whitfield. Ashley is a Black Queer Creator with a passion for making the world better and safer for everyone, especially our Black & Trans community. Capri waxed poetic about her, so i'm attaching a direct link to her venmo, where you can choose to donate if it tickles you! https://linkly.link/2lKvL [https://linkly.link/2lKvL] Find & Follow Capri: * A Little Queer Podcast: https://linkly.link/2lKvO [https://linkly.link/2lKvO] * Find Capri on IG: https://linkly.link/2lKvR [https://linkly.link/2lKvR] * Join Capri on Patreon: https://linkly.link/2lKvS [https://linkly.link/2lKvS]
