  • EP. 166 - Shadow Scale: Ch. 6-7
    Mar 1 2024

    In this episode, chapters 6 and 7 of Shadow Scale make us more and more suspicious of Abdo, his powers, and who he is communicating with behind the scenes. We also discuss which of the novel's half-dragon characters we would want to hang out with the most, and which is the most grotesque.

  • EP. 165 - Shadow Scale: Ch. 4-5
    Feb 16 2024

    In chapters 4 and 5 of Rachel Hartman's Shadow Scale, Raven's and Jess's suspicions about Abdo deepen, we encounter one of Seraphina's grotesques, and we reflect on "iPad kids" and the impact of technology on childhood. We also compare Shadow Scale's travel chapters to A Feast for Crows, and what we discover leaves our jaws on the floor.

  • EP. 164 - Shadow Scale: Ch. 2-3
    Feb 2 2024

    In this episode, we spill the tea on chapters 1 and 2! Brace yourself for the mysterious absence of Seraphina's "soul-light," Abdo's villain arc, a morally indifferent dragon general, and Seraphina becoming the ultimate dragon whisperer. Plus, Seraphina and Kiggs decide whether to tell Glisselda the truth about their non-affair. (Also, St. Capiti totally steals the show and she's a badass and we are obsessed with her.)
