TDB Podcast: Episode 41 The One With the Tan Hands (Dance With Somebody)
This week we discuss Dance With Somebody (3x17). We take a look at Kurt and Blaine's story arc in the episode, discuss why both parties are share the blame for the relationship troubles, where each of them are in their current headspace, and why this is one of the best Klaine stories within season three. We also look at the music, and discuss why the Whitney Houston tribute was one of the best tribute episodes they did.

Podcasts will be posted every Sunday (usually in the afternoon) and I’ll put a tab on the main page where you can find a list previous podcasts. You can also follow me on soundcloud, iTunes, or track the tag: tdb podcast.
Also, since I’m moving to iTunes, I have no way to tell how many of you are tuning in, so I really encourage you to reblog this post! Thank you!

Stiles/Derek (Teen Wolf)
Josh/Arnold (Please Like Me. I'm having a lot of feels about it, no one but Kat has watched it, we're doing it.)
Tagging kyelenia, tchrgleek, romanceallovertheplace, dievampiredie, jillypickle, gingerbeebee (Why can I tag some of you and not others? What is the pattern? WHAT IS THIS MADNESS?)
1. Do you remember the episode/scene/chapter that you first started shipping five? (Josh/Arnold)
Preeetty much the first time they ever showed up together. So when they were talking on Josh's kitchen floor during the party. (is that 2x01? It might be.)
2. Have you ever read fanfiction about two? (Ryder/Unique)
I'm pretty sure that I've read all the fanfic about them that exists but it is NOT EVEN CLOSE TO ENOUGH.
3. Has a picture of four ever been your screensaver/profile picture/tumblr ID? (Stiles/Derek)
No, because that's not the kind of thing I would do.
4. If three were to suddenly break up today, what would your reaction be? (Willow/Oz)
THEY GOT BACK TOGETHER? THIS IS VERY CONFUSING. BUT WHY WOULD THEY BREAK UP AGAIN?
5. Why is one so important? (Kurt/Sebastian)
Because they convinced me to start writing fanfic and to start writing at all, so I think my life would be entirely different if I hadn't started shipping them.
6. Is four a funny ship or a serious ship? (Stiles/Derek)
I have no idea what this means. So I'm going to go with funny. Because I am always laughing at them.
7. Out of all your ships listed, which ship has the most chemistry?
The fact that I've chosen three ships that aren't even canon totally makes this harder. Willow and Oz. Nerd love chemistry.
8. Of all the ships, which ship has the strongest bond?
Also Willow and Oz. They've saved each others lives and actually dated. Can't beat it.
9. How many times have you read/watched two’s fandom? (Ryder/Unique)
I'm a super sporadic rewatcher so once for sure and maybe twice.
10. Which ship lasted the longest?
I feel like this thing meant for me to choose canon OTPs? Willow and Oz.
11. How many times, if ever, has five broken up? (Josh/Arnold)
Technically they're broken up now? In a way, at least. But that's only the once.
12. If the world was suddenly thrust into a zombie apocalypse, which ship would make it out alive, one or three? (Willow/Oz vs. Kurt/Sebastian)
Loooool. I'm sorry, Kurt and Sebastian. I love you. But the witch and the werewolf vs. the actor and the preppy lacrosse player/show choir boy? I mean, Sebastian and Kurt will cut a bitch or several, but I don't think this is even a close contest. Will/Oz by a mile.
13. Did four ever have to hide their relationship for any reason? (Stiles/Derek)
In fic, they hide it all the time. In canon, it would be VERY WELL HIDDEN if it were going on. Although I guess they hid that they were working together from the Sheriff.
14. Is five still together? (Josh/Arnold)
Not really. But they also aren't over.
15. Is one canon? (Kurt/Sebastian)
Not in a million years, and I don't have any particular need for them to be.
16. If all five ships were put into a couple’s Hunger Games, which couple would win?
It would be between Willow/Oz and Stiles/Derek. On the one hand, teen wolf werewolves would be HELLA more useful in battle, but on the other hand, Willow is a witch. I'm going to go with Sterek due to Derek being hot as burning and Stiles manipulating the crowds.
17. Has anyone ever tried to sabotage five’s ship? (Josh/Arnold)
Not particularly, although Patrick was rather in the way. I think he was too out of it to actually be trying anything.
18. Which ship(s) would you defend to the death and beyond?
I love them all, but as far as insisting that they MUST BE CANON. OTP! END GAME! Totally Rynique.
19. If an evil witch descended from the sky and told you that you had to pick one of the five ships to break up forever, which ship would sink?
Are we just talking in canon? Because in that case, Kurtbastian. Since I have mentioned that I'd rather they not be canon. Also because I think we know that's never going to happen.
