Ep. 5 | Find Your Fix-It (or Don't and Wallow, for This is Also a ✨Thing✨)

Ep. 8 | BL Review 04: Roses and Champagne, by ZIG and Ttung Gae

Many forms of love exist. We support this. Many sorts of holes also exist. And that, goes without saying. All's fair in love and war. Travel with us to the cold, Napoleon-proof land of Western Russia where we dissect a dysfunctional couple and someone also almost literally gets dissected. It's like decently okay in the end though, kind of. This is Russia, you know. TW: toxic manipulation, graphic violence, drugging, non-consent. Please do not listen if you're not 18+.

Ep. 7 | The Deal with Danmei

And so the chair creaks, and the sirens sing their song. Sorry. We don't know how to edit audio. Also, Shrek? Shrooms? No. Just danmei. 🤷‍♀️ Join your hosts Mimi and Kiki for a deep dive and many tangents into the thriving world of Chinese BL media. The hype is growing, but why? How's it different from the rest? What's the big deal? Find several of your answers here at most. Trigger warnings as usual for sensitive, NSFW content, some of which involves problematic relationship dynamics. Please watch your step.

Ep. 6 | BL Review 03: The Black Mirror, by Muhwa and Sugeun

How many times does Kiki mention inappropriate cigarette disposal practices in this episode? Certainly not enough to indicate any subliminal interests... Welcome to our third BL review, where we explore one of the genre's most iconic horror comics. From gaslighting galore to twisted notions of self-motivation, everyone in this story is a terrible human being and we are here for it. TW: toxic manipulation, dubious consent at best, graphic scenes, and lots and lots of death. Please do not listen if you're not 18+.

Ep. 5 | Find Your Fix-It (or Don't and Wallow, for This is Also a ✨Thing✨)

What do cartels, the laws of thermodynamics, and BL have in common? You guessed it: fanfiction. Join Kiki and Mimi, neither of whom has yet confirmed who is who but it's anyone's guess at this point, for a 2-hour deep dive into the good old tropes and familiar icks pervading the literature we all call home. Our three years MIA do not count. (It's called method acting.) Note: Our mics broke and we're literally having tea in this episode, so please excuse the crap audio quality and random blips this time around. Listen on headphones if you can. Regular TWs for explicit content apply.

Ep. 4 | BL Review 02: King's Maker, by Haga and Kang Ji-young

Why is pasta made of chickpeas nowadays? We're not ranking SEO, that's for sure. Join us in our chaotic deep dive of Haga's and Kang Ji-young's popular BL manhwa King's Maker. Make sure to check out King's Maker on TappyToon. TW for pedophilia, insinuated incest, sexual content, and coercion.
