We’re covering Golden Son chapters 36–42, where Darrow and the Howlers get fired at Mars in living space spitballs, there’s a near-drowning at the bottom of a river that gave Melissa hives, Ragnar gets his razor, and the Roque situation keeps getting worse. Then Chapter 42 hits with a reveal that sent Melissa out of her chair and sent us texting each other at 1 a.m. (watch the video for that part). Only one Golden Son episode is left!

Ellie’s back, Melissa’s busy packing for a move, and Ellie’s husband Grant is filling in for a speed recap of the whole ACOTAR series before books 6 and 7 come out. We go through all five books in about 45 minutes, catch up on the House of Flame and Shadow crossover, then get into the book 6 teasers and the wildest fan theories out there: can mates be unmade, is Azriel a Prince of Hel, does Cassian die, and a Night Court civil war. Also: Tamlin as Thanos, a Costco rotisserie chicken shirt, and nobody ascending. Spoilers for every ACOTAR book and Crescent City.

In Golden Son Ch. 29–35 the Howlers rise from the sea, Tactus gets the most beautiful redemption arc ever written… and then Lorn ***** him. Mustang takes Pliny’s eye, Sevro wants it for his collection, and Darrow tells RAGNAR he’s a Red before anyone else. Plus a 6-year-old roasting Melissa’s skin, Frankenstein teeth, Tyra Banks lore, a Hairspray deep dive, and a growing fear that Roque is about to turn. The Reaper sails to Mars. Next up is Ch. 36–42.

Subscribe to our Patreon for instant access to the rest of Golden Son episodes → https://www.patreon.com/c/lamebcpod Chapters 22–28 of Golden Sun deliver the moment we have been waiting for — Sevro FINALLY admits he knows who Darrow is, and we are knocked completely off our chests (that's a phrase). We break down why this reveal hit different, what it means for Roque (spoiler: we're devastated and also not surprised), and whether Mustang eating bacon every day to feel close to Darrow is sweet or deeply unhinged. Plus: Pliny gets assigned his permanent villain casting, we go down a rabbit hole about the canonical existence of a Jelly Belly factory in this universe, and Ellie learns the hard way what a hippogriff actually is.

In Golden Son chapters 15–21, Darrow plays a game of truth or death with Octavia and her creepy scorpion oracles, the Howlers show up after a very dramatic "take cover" cube, and Sevro turns up with something mysterious in a bag (spoiler: it's Lysander). Then the Jackal performs brain surgery on a moving ship like he's McDreamy, Tactus breaks our hearts, and Darrow ends up backed into a corner for what feels like the fourth time this week. Plus Korean skincare that makes you smell like bulgogi, Feyd-Rautha Boggle usernames, and the discovery that Darrow really has a way with large men. Grab your star shell and come hang with us!

We're a week out from the Threshing Day novella (dropping 9/29/26), so we couldn't wait — this is a surprise bonus theory sesh before the release. We recap what Threshing Day actually is, debate whether Brennan's backstory matters for book four, dig into when Jack Barlow really turned venin, and cast our bets on who's going mad next (Dain? Ridoc? Aaric?). Plus: our "board of directors for dragons" theory, why Cath might be lying about his name, and all the reveals we're hoping book four finally gives us. Spoilers for books 1–3 ahead — you've been warned.

Subscribe to our Patreon for instant access to the rest of Red Rising episodes → https://www.patreon.com/c/lamebcpod Darrow's plan to survive the gala goes sideways fast — a duel with Cassius turns into an arm getting cut clean off, Octavia oversteps her own law and immediately regrets it, and the whole Bellona family jumps in for round two. Throw in Antonia apparently not being dead after all and Fitchner casually tasing the Jackal, and chapters 8–14 of Golden Son might be the most chaotic stretch yet. We break it all down — the theories, the questionable decisions, and the moment we both had to stop and reread a paragraph twice.

Subscribe to our Patreon for instant access to the rest of Red Rising episodes → https://www.patreon.com/c/lamebcpod Melissa and Ellie kick off Golden Son, and things get messy fast. Darrow's final Academy test turns into a full-blown space trap, "Big Bologna" makes his appearance, and by chapter three our boy is bankrupt, homeless, and down a reputation. Enter Pliny, the smuggest, silkiest villain this series has given us yet, plus a very unwelcome reunion with the Jackal. We cover chapters 1–7, debate whether Darrow should still be pining for Mustang, and ask the important questions — like how many cousins it takes to pee on one guy. Spoiler-free through chapter 7, tissues optional.

Subscribe to our Patreon for instant access to the rest of Red Rising episodes → https://www.patreon.com/c/lamebcpod It's here — our last episode of Red Rising, and it's a big one. Darrow closes out the Institute by taking down the Jackal (yes, that reveal), losing Pax in the process, and discovering that Mustang's connection to the Jackal is closer than anyone guessed (except for Melissa — she guessed it). We break down every twist chapter by chapter, react in real time to the ending we did not see coming, and cap it off with our thoughts on where Darrow goes from here.

Ahoy, howlers! We're back in the Institute and things are about to get bloody. This week we cover chapters 29 through 35 of Red Rising — Titus's execution, the Howlers officially forming, the siege on House Minerva, and the gut-punch reveal that finally catches up to Darrow when Cassius learns the truth about his brother. We scream, we theorize, we debate whether Fitchner is secretly Mad-Eye Mooney, and we watch Darrow build an army out of the one group nobody else wanted. Heads up — this episode was originally recorded for our Patreon, so the format's a little different than usual, but don't worry, it's still 100% spoiler-free for where we are in the book.

House Mars is falling apart from the inside, and we are here for every second of it. In this episode of the L.A.M.E. Book Club Podcast, we continue their Red Rising read-through with Darrow and Cassius navigating a brutal civil war for control of House Mars — complete with a horse-stealing heist, a very ill-fated flirtation with Mustang, one seriously cursed nickname for Cassius, and a Titus twist neither of us saw coming. Spoiler-free (we don't read ahead!), casual, and chapter-by-chapter, so you can follow along whether or not you've cracked the book yourself.

Sarah dropped the titles, blurbs, AND cover art for ACOTAR 6 and 7 today and Melissa is (solo, sorry our mics did not survive the emergency pod attempt) breaking down everything we just learned about Splintered Harmony and Forgotten Melody — aka the Valkyrie Cycle Movements. From an initial Ragnarok theory to a full pivot into "is Gwyn secretly a Lightsinger," plus what the blurbs might mean for the Lucien/Elain/Azriel love triangle, the Dusk Court, and those Crescent City connections we've been tracking since House of Flame and Shadow — these are all our predictions for book 6.

Melissa and Ellie are back and diving into Red Rising chapters 15 through 21, where Darrow gets drafted tenth out of a thousand (basically the NFL combine but with more murder), and finds himself trapped in a Silver Elite–coded nightmare with a golden ring and a body count of one. Also covered this week: whether a hot dog is a sandwich (it is not, fight us), the ongoing "prestigious vs. prestigious" pronunciation war, our sudden and deeply unqualified discovery that Pierce Brown is, in fact, hot, and the horrifying realization that Cassius has no idea what Darrow just did to his twin brother. Bonus points if you can explain the house system to us before we lose our minds over it.

Darrow's world just cracked wide open — chapters 8 through 14 take him from the mines straight into a secret plot to turn him into a Gold, complete with surgery, new eyes, dance lessons, and a card test that broke both our brains.
