We read chapters 19-23 of Cocky Surgeon, which led to so many new observations about Hopkins's writing. Instead of cats, we try to figure out if smirking penises are euphemisms for something, how doctor residencies actually work, and whether or not the author sticks with one theme throughout all 18 books. Chapter 19 - How old are you when you learn your last name? Chapter 20 - weird sex and workout routines Chapter 21 - in which we have an entire chapter dedicated to tetanus shots and stitches Chapter 22 - The...2018-09-2000 minHandbook PodcastCockygate Chapters 16-18Elle and Meg are back!

We were going to talk about the court case this episode, but too much ridiculousness happens in this book that we had to talk about these chapters. But you know what doesn't happen? Sex.

And when there isn't a lot of sex, they definitely find other things to talk about. And there are still plenty of things to wonder what the heck the author was talking about in these chapters. Discussed this episode: cold brew coffee, breakfast teas, new adult romance/erotica books, healthy relationships, is Janet the hero of this book? Is Dev? and who impregnated Sonic??

Meghan and James read the preview of Book 2 that comes with this book. We are immediately thrown into the end of Book 1 (why wasn't this just part of the ending? Who knows.) The preview comes with a side of transphobia or queer-phobia, which leads to a discussion of whether or not Aunt Aldyth is embracing his femininity for witchy reasons or other reasons. We discuss the concept of destiny as a plot device, and what we think will happen in book 2 (if it...2018-04-0900 min

It's more like a quick epilogue. We don't read the entire thing on the podcast, but you get genuine first reactions to this ending from James and trust me — they're enjoyably hilarious. Who gets married? Who catches the bouquet? What is the cringe-worthy last sentence and how do we react? We also discuss if we feel there should be sequels, James makes a LOT of faces, and we discuss what the heck we are going to do next. Join us April 9th for the previe...2018-04-0200 min

We discuss tarot (AGAIN for the love of god), a little about chaos magic, and a LOT about how the relationship between beliefs and magic and magical systems. We discuss a lot about Max's personality, the concept of consent (and how we the podcast hosts are pro-consent even with the book isn't), and how obnoxious this book is about telling things rather than showing, and how to say the word "athame" (which after a google search, has so many options!)

James shows off his Harry Potter and anime knowledge (SO PROUD!) We discuss our still long discomfort of how Mac is the most justifiable character despite being a totally terrible person, Meghan asks the legit question of why are we having this flashback? How old is Zade? (Hint, 25, twenty-something, or maybe in her 30s?) How old was Charles? How much do we want to hear about Zade's mom's boobs?

You are welcome to skip over this (to 40:36) as we did say we wouldn't discuss the scandal, and yet we did.* (I also promise it's not me just making groaning sounds for 40 minutes. I will also say that me assuming there are no comics that look like Spider-Man is me getting yell-y and blind sighted.)

Amanda was amazing enough to come on the show and talk to us about what the author addressed in the panel! While we discuss our thoughts and opinions on the author's stance on a few things, Amanda is incredibly objectable, we loved having her on the podcast!

James does some digging to see how many books have been purchased on Amazon, leading to a small discussion of how many books have been sold. James and Meghan are a chapter before the climax (?) of the story. We have a long conversation about how weird her boss/employee relationship is, and while spying on the girl you're dating is SUPER BAD, we can't help but be on his side in how weird they are acting. We...2018-02-0500 minHandbook PodcastChapter 13: The High PriestessThis chapter brings out some BDSM jokes, some discussion of why on earth a boss would get so involved in an employee's relationship — without her knowledge — what tense this book is in, how it's probably not a great idea to date a guy who insults your heritage and religion, and if your knee pops when you kiss a guy.... see a doctor.

Are you sick of seeing that on your podcast episodes? Well, TOO BAD IT'S OUR FIRST EPISODE BACK! Meghan and James came back from a break, groaning a bit as we picked this book back up. We had briefly forgotten how bad the writing of this book really is, as we have read other books in our break! This chapter brought along a discussion of racism, how every character acts like they're in middle school (and yet makes a self-realized comment about their juvenile ways), and whether or not the "bar fight" wa...2018-01-0800 minHandbook PodcastChapter 9: TemperanceMerry Christmas to those who celebrate!

Kind of like our author. There are some light spoilers for The Hate U Give from minute 18:00-19:34 (nothing major, just "this is what this book is about.")

This is the where we were finally convinced nobody every actually looked at this book before publishing it (or at least not this chapter), discuss again the differences between Young, New, and General Adult literature, and we finally just officially decide all the characters in this book are either 15 years old or aliens.
