In this episode, Natasha makes Jessica watch Ruby Gloom, a Canadian cartoon about a group of young monsters living in a haunted house. We discuss why Ruby doesn't have a nose, Natasha's fanfiction, our two-headed monster boy, and much, much more. Our Canadian kick has nearly lasted the whole year, and we're determined to make it to 2027 with Canada on our watchlist. Will Jessica watch Ruby Gloom? Or will she just buy a t-shirt? You'll have to listen to find out. Email us at [email protected] and follow us on Insta @epiphaniespod Intro and outro music is Feelin Good by Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)

This episode, Jessica has Natasha watch Schitt's Creek, yet another Canadian classic. Step into this sitcom which broke out of Canadian media to become quite popular. We talk about David & Patrick (our fave tumblr gays), Alexis' journey, Johnny's humour in this show, Centaurworld and Hot Frosty. (Why those last two? Unknown.) Will Natasha fall for this loveable bunch of weirdos? Or will they be happy they were kicked out of the mansion? You'll have to listen to find out.

In this episode, Natasha makes Jessica watch Stoked, a Canadian cartoon set in a surf hotel on the West Coast. We discuss hot surfer lesbians (as a concept, there are none in this show), surf slang (which we know nothing about), and the kickass shark hotel (it is wrong to hate the shark hotel. Shark hotel rules). Will Jessica ride high on these waves? Or will she crash out? You'll have to listen to find out.

In this episode, Jessica makes Natasha watch Saving Hope, a Canadian medical drama where all the doctors are very bad at their jobs. We discuss Maggie's terrible bedside manner, Joel's insane surgery decision, and how we would never, ever, in a million years want to be doctors. Join us for yet another Canadian show and celebrate a hospital show without anyone mentioning insurance or bill payments once. Will Natasha be intrigued by the medical crimes of this show? Or will they say no to malpractice? You'll have to listen to find out.

This week on Episode Epiphanies, Natasha makes Jessica watch 6Teen, a Canadian cartoon about six teenagers who work at the mall. Jessica watched this show as a kid, so take a trip with us back to late-2000s nostalgia, a time when recording TV was not an option, we watched every episode out of order, and our biggest problem was the queer panic over a likely-bisexual Nicki. We discuss our vague memories of the show, our affection for the characters, and the series finale that still looms large in our minds. The answer to this one is kind of a giveaway but will Jessica buckle to the power of nostalgia? Or will she say goodbye to her old friends? You'll have to listen to find out.

This week on Episode Epiphanies, Jessica makes Natasha watch The Other Two, an offbeat sitcom about two older siblings whose younger brother becomes wildly famous overnight. We talk satire, the dark underbelly of the music industry, and what it means to be "straight" to the people in this show. We also discuss when this show came out and how wild it is that it's such a direct reference to Justin Bieber even though it's 2019. Will Natasha be drawn in by the lure of fame? Or will they want to go home to Ohio? You'll have to listen to find out. (P.S. When I was editing this episode, a friend of mine, unprompted, told me they started watching this show. The Other Two is out there in the universe, y'all.) Email us at [email protected], and follow us on Insta @epiphaniespod Intro and outro music is Feelin Good by Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)

This week on Episode Epiphanies, Natasha makes Jessica watch the anime Wind Breaker which is about the very real sport of street fighting. (They have street fighting in the Olympics, right?) Listen to us discuss this sports anime that is, arguably, not about a sport, their surprisingly wholesome handling of queer identities, and the boys in this show that desperately need therapy. Then tune in to discover the real mystery of this anime - what happened to all of the teachers?? Was it aliens? Did the street fighting kids kill them? Did they get raptured? Yeah, that's it. Must have been the rapture. Will Jessica be endeared to these fighting boys or will she be pulled away from the show by the grace of God? (That's what the rapture is, right? The rapture is a good thing? I've never been to church.) You'll have to listen to find out. (About whether or not I'll watch more of it. Not about the rapture. This is, arguably, anti-rapture education. Like the worst rapture education you could find.)

This episode, Jessica makes Natasha watch the one, the only, BBC's Sherlock. We talk about SuperWhoLock (of course), the video editing of this show, and the things about this show that are pulled from the original novels. But mostly we focus on this show's absolutely insane commitment to making every single person John & Sherlock meet ask if they are a couple. Is it queerbaiting if the show itself acknowledges the queerbaiting? (Idk, ask Riverdale.) Will Natasha fall for this floppy-haired Sherlock or will they let the case go unsolved? You'll have to listen to find out.

In this episode, Natasha makes Jessica watch Voltron, a Netflix cartoon that is no longer on Netflix. We spend a lot of time talking about the ephemeral nature of electronic media, the shipping wars in this fandom, and Pidge being non-binary. We changed our show format in the hopes of creating shorter episodes... I think we've only made longer ones. Will Jessica continue on in this space opera? Or will the lions of Voltron take her down? You'll have to listen to find out.

In this very special bonus episode, we read out all of the review promises that were written out for Lenni. So if you're Lenni, this one's for you.

In this episode, we review all of Daybreak as Natasha watched this whole show! If you're keeping score... I am not, so please tell me who is winning. We discuss Turbo & Wesley (a very real ship), Eli (a very real character in this show that exists), and just generally being a cannibal as an excuse to torture children (you know, normal things). Join us for the wild ride that is Daybreak. P.S. I said I would read Lenni's response after this episode, but it was SO long that it will be a separate bonus episode Follow Natasha at twitter.com/natashadamours Follow Jessica at twitter.com/jessicairowe Email us at [email protected], tweet at us @epiphaniespod, and follow us on Insta @epiphaniespod Intro and outro music is Feelin Good by Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)

In this episode, Jessica makes Natasha watch Daybreak, a Netflix apocalypse show that is scary-similar to The Last Kids on Earth. (We're talking the same zombie-survival town map, the same gathering our friends vibe, and the same monsters and zombies in one apocalypse theme.) Listen as we discuss Sam Dean the Supernatural-themed John Green protagonist, our flashback king Josh, and Angelica the bomb girl. Natasha comes up with some wild fanfic that I personally vote we force them to write, as it would be a very fun apocalypse story to read. And then I try to come up with any answers at all for our usual questions given that I remember extremely little about this show. Will Natasha survive the apocalypse? Or will she lose jock idol and be thrown to the zombies? You'll have to listen to find out.

In this episode, Natasha makes Jessica watch The Last Kids on Earth, a Netflix cartoon about... well, the last kids on Earth. We discuss the peculiarities of this apocalypse -- like why are there both monsters AND zombies running around -- and the manic pixie dream girl apocalypse trope that has been aged down for this audience. It wouldn't be an episode of epiphanies if we didn't have at least one queer ship that never happens to gush over and boy do we. Will Jessica be endeared by the last kids on Earth and want to see them saved? Or will she callously leave them to their fate? You'll have to listen to find out.

(Have we used this title before? It feels like we've used this title before. It's a good title. We watch a lot of things for the lesbians.) In this episode, Jessica makes Natasha watch the iconic Netflix drama Orange is the New Black. We discuss the legacy of this show, how it was presented when it first came out, the many famous characters who do not appear in this episode, and more. Delve into our discussion of lesbians in the early 2000s and the dark mundanity of the American prison system. We're launching a new format in this episode with no full recap of the episode. So if you haven't seen the pilot of OITNB, watch it now! Will Natasha get caught up in the prison system? Or will they break free of this show's clutches? You'll have to listen to find out.

In this episode, Natasha makes Jessica watch Danny Phantom, a cartoon about a boy who is a ghost superhero because obviously that is what you do when you become a ghost. Listen to us talk about the brilliant way this show does exposition, our little jock boy who is also a teacher's pet, and the unhinged parenting Danny and Jazz are subjected to. Then hear us ponder how the heck this show thinks cloning works if the answer isn't either Danny or Dani is trans. Like. Fundamentally, what does the word cloning mean to them? Will Jessica go ghost mode and watch this show? Or will she disappear through the ghost door forever? You'll have to listen to find out.
