Rereading the Revolution

By: Kellie and Daphne
  • Summary

  • Whether it was a reaction to the politics of the time or the rapidly approaching end date of the Mayan calendar, the pop-cultural landscape of the early 2010s can be best remembered for one thing: dystopian literature. Join plucky young heroines and podcast hosts Daphne and Kellie as they dive into all of your favorite young adult novels and series from this era as we reread the revolution. We lived through it once and are back to recap, review, and discuss all the best and worst that the world-shifting genre of YA fiction has to offer–the sci-fi, the fantasy, and the supernatural–at least until our society crumbles and we have to survive a brave new world.

  • "Ouroboros" | The Uglies Movie
    Sep 20 2024

    "Move a muscle, change a thought."


    Given the public's opinion on this movie, you're probably expecting us to rag on it for half an hour straight...but we like to keep you on your toes! We may be saying goodbye to this series for now, but the film proves that time is a flat circle, so who knows what's to come. Netflix, email us.

  • “A Very Special Episode” | Specials
    Sep 13 2024

    “Scott, you have one move!”


    Daphne-la and Kellie-wa are wrapping up Scott Westerfeld’s Uglies with the final book in the main trilogy, Specials (2006). To put it into Tally’s words, this book is extremely random, but we do our best to find meaning within it and not sound like total bubbleheads. We’ll be back next week to talk about the movie!

    Aug 30 2024

    “That seems to happen a lot in this genre.”


    Kellie, Daphne, and special guest Mara embark on a very exciting journey into the world of Kass Morgan’s The 100 (2013). We cover the book, CW series, fandom, controversies, and more in this episode in a manner befitting its high drama. Apologies (or you’re welcome, depending on who we ask) in advance for how often Lost comes up in this one…again.
