S2e9 "Deception" Alanna just watched "The Talented Mr. Ripley" and so is having complicated personal feelings about this episode. Also, we google The Terror in Minecraft. The podcast Alanna talks about ~58m is "The Retrievals."

S2e8 "The Mistake" In this one, we rented a podcast studio (location edited out for privacy) and attempted to sound professional for once! We also meander quite a lot through the Protestant Reformation.

S2e7 "Hunting" Yeah, we were both extremely sleep-deprived while recording this one. We keep it together long enough to get through some entirely unrelated discussions on Luigi, guns, vaccines, and politics.

S2e6 "Spin" BACK AND BETTER THAN EVER! We discuss what life agonies kept us from our beloved House MD for so long, transphobia in sports, and House of the Dragon, which at this point is just how we roll. And there's a special guest appearance from our kitty friend Vinnie. Note: the podcast Alanna references ~40:00 is "Bed of Lies."

S2e5 "Daddy's Boy" We're back, baby! As the title suggests, this is kind of a downer, unfortunately. We do our best to lighten the mood. Digressions: Ancient Roman military wives, Howard has died. Badly, Ford owners be like, my parents sold me to House MD.

S2ep4 "TB or Not TB" Fellas, is it gay to die of yellow fever? These questions and more answered only on Housebound. We mostly stay on topic, because the topic is "greedy pharma execs exploiting the third world" and it turns out there's a lot to say about that.

S2ep3 "Humpty Dumpty" We do spend the first ten minutes of this episode talking about HotD again, so once that starts feel free to fast forward if you don't want to Sea his Snake. Otherwise we mostly stay on topic! Except for malaria cropping up a few times. But honestly, that should be expected from us by now.

S2ep2 "Autopsy" And we are BACK, baby! Neither school nor work nor illness of the mind can keep us down forever. This episode features a special appearance from our newest friend of the show, Vinnie. Digressions: Daemon-Aemond-House beef, the Hatman, working a double at the hater factory, free my glans, and Jaehaerys your kids.

S2ep1 "Acceptance" Welcome one and all! We actually made it to season 2, edited many weeks late. Mostly we talk about prison abolition and legal justice in this episode, which isn't even off topic. Digressions: shambling corpses, there was a chicken man, problems disease, and Beesbury sweep.

Season 1 wrap-up! We lived, we laughed, we loved, we learned, we lusted. Long story short, we liked to see it. We answer your questions and discuss the season as a whole, where it left us with the characters and where we look forward to going in the future. Join us next time for season 2!

S1ep22 "Honeymoon" And we did it, y'all! We finished season one. This episode begins with about 10 minutes of discussing current political tragedies (school shootings, pro-lifers, and anti-trans bills) so feel free to skip that if you'd rather not hear more about it. The following 4 minutes are about being gay in Westeros in case you want to skip that too. But otherwise we stay mostly on track, other than a quick Morbius break in the middle, naturally. Thanks for all the laughs!

S1ep21 "Three Stories" Hospice is the third studio album by American indie rock band The Antlers, and their first concept album. It was initially self-distributed by the band in March 2009. Hospice tells the story of a relationship between a hospice worker and a female patient suffering from terminal bone cancer, their ensuing romance, and their slow downward spiral. Y'all already know what it is. Digressions: unironically cool Ben Garrison, Athena problematic, the Clodia/Lesbia debate, and COVID grifting.

S1ep20 "Love Hurts" Woof. This is a double feature for House and Bones, and we're sorry you have to listen to that, but not as sorry as we are that we had to watch it. Digressions: MILF Guy #2, abolish football, I will kill the rat of Scranton, ancient medical schools, Edward Said rolling in his grave like a Costco hotdog, and Coriolanus Gunch insta-kill.

S1ep19 "Kids" This episode is boring enough that we started talking about Bones first. It's also uncomfortable in a not-very-funny way. But hey, could be worse, right? It could be the next episode. To clarify on something we forgot while recording: the member of Fall Out Boy that was in House s8 is not the same member we called gross. Digressions: POV: you're the band MGMT, not now honey Mommy's recording, the two parts of a hospital, Homestuck lore/Undertale imagines, and Saturn devouring his Stuart Little.

S1ep18 "Babies & Bathwater" Our final Vogler episode, the plotline ends not with a bang but with a liberal copout. We'll find something else to be mad about, don't worry. Digressions: men who suck class solidarity, British cuisine, Q grifting, thank you eating him, magic Rasputin penis trick, and buying our silence.
