Description

This week we are going to dive deep into Heartstopper Season 2. Two warnings:

  1. This is all spoilers. If you haven't seen the season and don't want to be spoiled, watch the season first and then come back and listen.
  2. This is a very long episode, almost 90 minutes. I try not to go over an hour if possible, but this one just had so much going on that I had to go longer.

In this episode, we will dive deep into season 2. We examine the couples and their dynamics (particularly Nick and Charlie). I also talk a lot about Ben, why he had to be in this season, and why he was so important to Charlie's story. I also spend time talking about Isaac and his asexuality storyline and why that is so important to see. We end with talking about minor characters and my hopes for future seasons.

I really hope you enjoy this episode, even if it is much longer than anything else I've done. Don't worry, it isn't setting a precedent for episode lengths or anything. I also wrote a review of the season the day after the season aired. It has a lot of the same points, but there are differences, so if you're interested, there it is.
