  • Episode 104: TAOT Between the Pod: Part 2 - SHUT UP ABOUT THAT SHOW (CEG)

    October 19th, 2022  |  1 hr 36 mins

    As the last episode for a little bit, Vero watched first three episodes of Crazy Ex-Girlfriend. And oh boy, you are certainly in for a ride. Vero wasn't thrilled by the show, which meant Lina wasn't thrilled by Vero.
    We debated scenes, characters, possible spoilers, Vero made wild predictions, some of them might be even correct (you'll have to listen yourselves to find out).

  • Episode 103: TAOT Between the Pod: Part 1 - SHUT UP ABOUT THAT SHOW (Bones)

    October 5th, 2022  |  1 hr 14 mins

    If you listened to our Lucifer episodes, you are more than aware that we both have shows that we will not shut up about. And before we start our new project (which by now should be out of the bag), we wanted to get at least ONE show (each) into our brains and hearts.
    So this week Lina finally watched the first three episodes of Bones. If you want this episode to make sense, so should you ;)

    • IMPORTANT: At 1:05:00 Vero gets into spoilers because Lina asked for them, so if you do not want a few superficial spoilers, you need to stop the ep before that (only the outro happens afterwards) So join in for Lina's first watch of a show from 2005 for which Vero has all the nostalgia and Lina had none. (Oh and don't believe anything Lina says, at the point of this release, she has watched beyond season 5 ;) ) PS: Please forgive us for Vero's audio quality in this one, she used the wrong mic and we only realised 2 min before we were done...
  • Episode 102: TAOT Lucifer Bonus 3 - Fanfiction read by Vero

    September 21st, 2022  |  2 hrs 43 mins

    "Lucifer cannot accept the fact that Dan is in Hell, not when he now has the power to do something about it. But when he walks into Dan's cell, he sees something he's not expecting. Bringing him back is going to be more complicated than he thought."

  • Episode 101: TAOT Lucifer Bonus 2 - Fanfiction read by Lina

    September 7th, 2022  |  1 hr 26 mins

    Now that we are finished with the show, we decided to dive into the fandom a bit more and what better part of the fandom is there, than.... fanfiction?
    We found two great fics (well, more than two, but we did settle on two) and decided to try our hand at podfics! This week you get Lina's try with "Ella Enlightened" by Liannabob.
    It is an Ella PoV fanfiction - Summary taken from AO3: "An exploration of the Ella & Lucifer friendship, in which Ella uses forensics to figure out that he's maybe not a method actor after all. Set after the season 3 finale and after "Boo Normal"."
    The AO3 rating is for General Audiences and there are no additional tags or warnings for this fanfiction.
    We hope you enjoy this reading and a huge Thank You to Liannabob for writing this and giving Lina permission to record this.

  • Episode 100: TAOT Lucifer Bonus 1 - Switcheroo Mayhem

    August 24th, 2022  |  1 hr 5 mins

    Who is Rodney? What is English? Why is Linda there? Is Linda there? What scene are we in? Who is naked? Want to know answers to these questions? So do we!
    Join us on a journey to remember episode 7 from season two, while only having the chance to read notes written by the other person OVER TWO YEARS AGO. It doesn't go well. Or maybe it does, depends what you expect from us!

  • Episode 99: TAOT Lucifer Summoning E6

    August 10th, 2022  |  2 hrs 53 mins

    We nearly broke the 3 hour mark on this - because it should come as no little surprise that we have a lot to say about not just the final season of Lucifer, but also about finishing the show for the podcast and what this has meant to us in the past years.
    As usual we got mighty drunk during the Summoning, and once again combined two recording sessions, so you get sober Us inbetween proceedingly drunk Us.
    For one last time, we covered our usual bases with most/least character development, favourite relationship, top3 for episodes and songs, music stats, general thoughts on the season, the questionaire, going through the stuff we monitor and of course talking at length about the feedback and questions we received and sprung on each other.

  • Episode 98: TAOT Lucifer S6E10

    July 27th, 2022  |  1 hr 43 mins

    This is it. The finale. Yes, we will release more Lucifer episodes, but this is the last regular Lucifer episode ever. So of course we couldn't leave you short, and give you the longest one yet!
    Get ready for disagreements, sulking, voiceless Vero (she may have done a little bit of screaming at a concert a few nights before recording) and chatty Lina, because if you thought Lina had opinions before, you haven't heard this episode.
    But most importantly, get ready for gushing, reminiscing and still debating and discovering issues, that we haven't seen before. Hope you enjoy!

  • Episode 97: TAOT Lucifer S6E09

    July 13th, 2022  |  1 hr 12 mins

    While the episode might say "Goodbye", we are nowhere near ready to say goodbye to any of this.
    Strap in for emotions during every single goodbye moment, behind the scenes tidbits Vero collected at various conventions, internet drama when this episode first came out and of course detailed discussions on pretty much everything.
    Initially this was over 2 hours long, so if you want to know what didn't make the cut, check out the bonus.
    By the time this comes out, you should have about a week left to send in your final feedback ever, so go on and send us those emails or DMs!

  • Episode 96: TAOT Lucifer S6E08

    June 29th, 2022  |  1 hr 11 mins

    Finally, the episode Ella gets included in all the shenanigans! Lucifer suffers a performence anxiety, but ultimately he gets shot and accepted by Rory. Linda shares her biggest career accomplishment just to burn it in the end Dan gets nudged to the right direction to find his true guilt.

    Lina is sceptical about Luci and Rory's relationship growth and Vero admits to shed a tear during the Deckerstar montage. All is well and ready for the last two episodes of the show.

  • Episode 95: TAOT Lucifer S6E07

    June 15th, 2022  |  1 hr 11 mins

    Wedding drama, huge reveals, painful pasts, this episode has it all. Plus of course us focusing on the weirdest possible stuff, like the atrociously bad subtitles of Amazon, debating what family means, internet comments, how one step to the side makes other people magically not hear what you say and so much more.
    Also our patience with Rory is finally starting to run out, we are ecstatic to see Trixie again and we get the third part of Ella's Whiteboard Freeze Frame Frenzy.

  • Episode 94: TAOT Lucifer S6E06

    June 1st, 2022  |  1 hr 24 mins

    This episode is touching on a lot of quite heavy topics, so please, read through the trigger warnings, and only listen if you feel comfortable to do so!

    TW: rasism, police brutality, climate change, sexism

    We went looooong. We tried to cut the episode to our regular length, but there was just so much to say, while also trying to give you some levity breaks, as did the episode itself.

  • Episode 93: TAOT Lucifer S6E05

    May 18th, 2022  |  1 hr 8 mins

    This one made us have way too many emotions, even when recording. Also it made us have very weird theories. Like: Can ghosts masturbate? Did Rory break the world? Does timetravel equate with fate? Is Chloe a praying mantis?
    You obviously get a freeze frame frenzy for the whiteboard scene, some chaos with both of us and some praise and critique of all our favourite characters.

  • Episode 92: TAOT Lucifer S6E04

    May 4th, 2022  |  1 hr 9 mins

    In this episode we share our teenage tv crushes that weren't teenage. Vero gets obsessed with Amenadiel's studying habits and Lina discovers the secret behind ghosts in Luciverse.
    We watch Lucifer answer the question of 'Who's your Daddy' over and over, until it's him, and THEN, we discover who's your Mommy as well.

  • Episode 91: TAOT Lucifer S6E03

    April 20th, 2022  |  1 hr 5 mins

    This week we have a throwback episode without having a throwback episode. Remembering the first case, we go visit Jimmy Barnes in his hell loop, parts of which Lina absolutely loaths. Philosophycal debates are had make-up is discussed, life or death questions are asked.

  • Episode 90: TAOT Lucifer S6E02

    April 6th, 2022  |  1 hr 2 mins

    Because of reasons we recorded this one in the morning and somehow it ended up quite a bit shorter than usual (since we entered the Netflix era).
    Join in as we debate Chloe's attachment to Amenadiel's rod, laugh at every impossible innuendo, start to ship Ella and Carol, miss Eve, enjoy Dan being a smart bean and of course keep wondering about the new always angry emo Angel.

  • Episode 89: TAOT Lucifer S6E01

    March 23rd, 2022  |  1 hr 14 mins

    And we are off with season 6! What an opener... Chloe is finding a way to be a detective, without being The Detective, Luci is struggling with his worthiness for a change, Linda pokes at Maeve until they get engaged and Ella is enjoying her new co-worker. In the end we figure out our own way to get Dan out of Hell, because Lucifer seems to be stuck.
