Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardugo

Episode 80

Release Date: March 8, 2023

Netflix reminded your hosts that Shadow and Bone exists, so they decided that they’d read the first novel in Leigh Bardugo’s trilogy. They are DEFINITELY not the target audience for these books. They discuss fantasy settings, chosen one tropes, and whether or not the Darkling is actually hot enough to warrant all of the conflict in this book. This episode also features a “Words are Weird” debating when, exactly, next Saturday is.

Thanks to the following musicians for the use of their songs:

- Amarià for the use of “Sérénade à Notre Dame de Paris”

- Josh Woodward for the use of “Electric Sunrise”
