Plus, if you listen to this episode, you can hear me spend way too long debating whether “charisma sink” is a compliment or an insult.

If you grew up with The Chronicles of Narnia like I did, I can't recommend this series from @gabydiazortiz.bsky.social enough. It's the kind of cultural, religious, and literary deep dive I love (and if you listen to my podcast, I'm sure you love it too!).
I Read Prince Caspian so you don't have to. Let's recap Narnia!

Working on my third season episodes and doing a quick word count. I've wrtten over 7000 words about the 1995 TV movie Ebbie, which is 600 more than the episode on the George C. Scott version (my favorite!) and 2000 more than my episode on the Alastair Sim one. Apparently I have some thoughts...
