    This week's episode on the Bloodwood Society may be an all-time favorite. We have declared this the next Hunger Games-esque type book. It was absolutely thrilling! If you want to hear Lauren make 100 disney references, or hear Haylie discuss how she knows about ornithology, this is the episode for you 😜

    Come along with us as we talk about this dystopian, futuristic, and sci-fi action packed book!

  • Poetry Edition - Our Favorite Sapphic Poems

    Poetry Edition - Our Favorite Sapphic Poems
    Jul 9 2024

    Send us a Text Message.

    Hi Everyone! We have a slightly different episode for you this week! Haylie is on vacation but also got a little sick so this is a bit of a mini episode where we read a few of our favorite sapphic poems and give our thoughts! Please let us know what you think!

    Poems:

    Poem #1: For the Goddess Too Well Known
    Poem #2: A Poem for Haruko
    Poem #3: Twenty-One Love Poems [Poem III]
    Poem #4: The Only

    As I crawled back into bed, into you, not ready
    to leave, I realized how well our bodies
    matched and melted into each other.

    We fit like puzzle pieces--my keys falling into
    your locks--how your legs know to open so
    mine can move between, how your arms
    lay perfectly on my waist.

    How can I leave where my body belongs?

    But if by chance, or expectation, or heartbreak,
    our pieces end up being a mismatch...
    please let us be in the same row,
    close enough so our fingertips can reach out and touch.

    But if the same row is too close and it hurts
    too much to feel your fingers woven into mine,
    then maybe we could be in the same column?

    I'll be just slightly below you so I can look
    upon your jawline, so maybe, sometimes,
    my fingers can trace it's edges while I watch
    a slow smile form across your lips.

    But if by circumstance, i cannot be close enough to see your jaw,
    please just let me be in the same box as you,
    to be painted from the same picture as you,
    to be near to you even from afar.
    Becasue in a box of what seems is made up of infinite peices,
    you are the only one I want.

    You're the only one i want next to me.
    You're the only piece that fits into me.

    Poem #5: Petals

    Had we been in grade school together,
    Had wed been at the same 4 square court, or vou at the basketball court, while I played hand games with my girl friends,
    I would have seen vou.
    I would have noticed you.
    Your deep brown eyes.
    The way you looked at the basketball like a math problem.
    I would have seen you.
    And on my walks home,
    Id pick the daisies and Id count the petals. before the rhyme,
    to hide from myself that I wanted you, wanted to insure Id always land on "she loves me.
    What else could I wish for, hope for, but your love?
    And that flower,
    she held my my happiness in the number of her petals that day.

    Last Night at the Telegraph Club - Part 2

    Part 2 of our episodes on Last Night at the Telegraph Club, written by Malinda Lo. Lily and Kath get to delight in their newfound love and Lauren and Haylie delight right along with them. This book was a stunning look at the themes of queerness, intersectionality of identities, and what expectations put on us by others can really feel like.

    Last Night At The Telegraph Club - Part 1

    This book floored both of us, so listen in to hear us dig in to the layers of historical context behind Last Night at the Telegraph Club, set during the Red and Lavender Scares in the United States. Lily and Kath have our hearts, but we unexpectedly find a lot of tenderness for some other characters as well. If you're looking for a game - count how many times Haylie says "for historical context" and how often Lauren brings up or quotes a pop star. Rejoin us next week for Part 2.

    If you are visiting the show notes from the episode looking for a link to the "Olivia" eye-kissing picture... well a lady never breaks a promise.

    Back at it with another L Word episode recap and rewatch! Lauren is still gushing over Bette and Haylie is explaining whether her first car was a Subaru or a red pickup truck. Oh, and Bette and Tina may be having a baby, and Alice needs to grow a bit more of a backbone! We also got our first fan mail by using the link above and we will be reading those at the end of the podcast!
