THIRST AID KIT | S3E06 | OUR FAVORITE GENRE IS THIRST
HELLO, THIRST-BUCKETS!
We went to New York Comic Con again this year, didn’t we?!
That’s right — our lovely, hilarious and nerdy friends Cher and Preeti AKA the supremely generous cohosts of the SyFy Fangrrls Strong Female Characters podcast invited us to Comic Con with them! Look at us up in that photo with our close personal Thirst Object friends, Henley shirt-wearing Keanu Reeves and altogether topless Michael B. Jordan!
There was a whole live show (you should listen to the WHOLE THING HERE), and we basically discussed all things fandom and thirst. That was the whole remit. it was great, and shoutout to everybody who came out to listen and watch and yell out their many thirsts – we appreciated it!
That means the format of this week’s show is a little different. Listen well: there’s a short clip from the live show in today’s episode. Thirst Objects were all over the fandom map. There’s a moment where Nichole goes to town describing her one of the thirstiest scenes in True Blood, and we only wish you were there to see her enact it IRL. She got off her stool and e v e r y t h i n g. 🐺💉 Alcide Herveaux, tho!
And Bim? Well, she got a little... enthusiastic when it came to discussion of one man from literature: The Lord of the Rings’ Aragon, son of Arathorn. Bitch! 🚬
This was also a great episode if you’re into The Walking Dead’s Richonne AKA the greatest ship of Bim’s life. We got two Richonne experts to join us from outside the TWD panel at NYCC: Kia, the cohost of the superb podcast, Two Dead Chicks, and Ash aka Tumblr’s own @cake-by-thepound, Richonne fic extraordinaire. We spoke a lot about the secret of Rick’s walk 🤠, his kindness, and also his MOUF, which seems ideal for its true purpose on this earth: kissing Michonne. 👀💦
Finally, we went into the inbox and retrieved some truly blessed listener correspondence that made us tear up and blow kisses. We appreciate you all so, so much. 💜 You can listen to the whole wondrous episode, RIGHT HERE (more links to listen are down below).

TOWL 1.01 | Years
Hello friends. It is a pure miracle we've gotten this far, in both the #Richonne fandom and also us, Melissa and Kia, remembering how any of this stuff works after a Rick Grimes length hiatus away from it all. But just like Andy, Danai and Gimple, we keep our promises and when we said we'd be back when Rick was, WE'RE BACK NOW THAT RICK IS!!!!! And what a reunion it was. From the opening scene with our man's eyes full of tears we were immediately ready to take this journey with Michonne and Rick because a) we only support winners and b) they are the ones who live.
And what a journey it was: a secret city, a secret army, a secret plan, a secret mission, secret desires. Secrets on secrets on secrets! Let's discuss them all!

Bonus | Season 9 Wrap Up
In a shocking turn of events, we actually showed back up to do this recap of season 9 of The Walking Dead, five months late.
We talk about that light that dimmed in our hearts once our main man was taken away, what it would take to pull us back into being a diehard fan and a look back at this little zombie show that changed our worlds.

We knew this day was coming, friends? Or did we? We wouldn't blame you if you thought we forgot about you since this is coming at ya six months late. But good things take time. We hope.
Even though it's so hard to say goodbye to yesterday, we must. But really, it's a celebration, benches (any fans of The Good Place out there?). We compiled all of your truly lovely messages for us, along with many of our favorite moments from the past three years and put together our farewell tribute to us and, more importantly, to you. #TDCPod fam for life.

129 | S9E14 | Scars [with Tai Gooden]
OK. Where do we begin with this long-awaited episode of The Walking Dead? Our friend Tai Gooden helps us break this down.
What started as excitement to see our main woman, Michonne (Danai Gurira), step into the spotlight turned to horror over what we were watching. The kids? Eff them kids. Yes, they deserved to die and we hope they burn in hell! No, we were more than a little disgusted to see Michonne brutalized again. Tussling with the Governor's men? Check. Savage fight with the actual Governor? Check. Beat up by a MMA fighter disguised as a trash lady? Check. Knocked out by a demon child while pregnant? Check. Branded while pregnant? Check. Beaten with a wooden board while pregnant? Check. Had to kill a bunch of Children of the Corn to rescue her daughter who was abducted by a close friend from before the world ended? Check. Had her heavily pregnant belly slashed by a 6-year-old? Check. While he was at it, why didn't he just cut RJ out for good measure?
And we're still confused about the actual point of this. Was this supposed to explain why Maggie and Tara have an attitude with Michonne? Or why Michonne don't want no new friends? We get it. Sometimes, in the zombie apocalypse, you meet people and they try to eat you. No wait-- you meet people and they try to take half of your stuff and make you slaves. No, that's not it. Here we go: you meet people and they kill you and carve a "W" in your head. See where we're going? This ain't new. Not sure why we needed to see Michonne kill some kids?
By the way, thanks for all the help, Daryl. And Judith, go to your room!
On the plus side, Danai was phenomenal. As if there was any doubt. We saw RJ and he's the perfect kid. And Jocelyn, if nothing else, gave us the perfect tagline for these Richonne movies: Go Find Your Man.
Be sure to check out Tai's work at Hypable, SyFyWire and Bustle!
