A weekly recap of articles, videos, podcasts, and more.
PokéPark Kanto Was Everything I Wanted
You know that feeling you get when you’ve imagined something for so long and once it’s in front of you, you don’t know how to act? Do you run? DO you scream? Do you cry tears of insane happiness? All those can be true, and are exactly what Tom did at PokéPark Kanto. Ok, maybe I’m being dramatic with the emotional reveals, but reading about his experience at this theme park reminded me of the first time I stepped into Hogsmeade at Universal Orlando. The world was simpler then. Tom stepped foot into his favorite pastime and loved every minute of it. From finding each Pokémon to stressing about missing a time slot, join him in his glee and let us know if you’re heading to Japan!
S3 Ep 3: Fake Daeron?! | Decoding Dragons | Watching Now Podcast
Just look at that image. Every single female relates. The memes alone from episode 3 of House of the Dragon are chef’s kiss. Why? Because when Rhaenyra finally dresses on her first day as rightful ruler and prepares to meet the smallfolk… she gets her period. She is now not only grieving (we know stress can bring it on!), dealing with the trauma of living in her father’s ghostly shadow, and taking on everyone’s issues, but she’s also everyone’s problem because her hormones are on fire. Join Lily and Me as we break down the emotional weight of this episode and the similarities in going mad between her and Daenerys… Is the switch flipping for her to burn them all? Let’s dive in.
TIP - Oh Hey! Us again. Another friendly reminder.

3 Books to Read with Screen Adaptations Coming Soon
By Jasmyn Spann
We know video game adaptations don’t always work, but what about book adaptations? You have the successes of The Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, and Jurassic Park, but then you have The Girl on the Train, A Wrinkle in Time, and Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief. The 3 latter books were adaptations that disappointed readers and movie-goers alike. This week, Jasmyn brings us up to date on the upcoming adaptations and why we need to pay attention! Ready for a new book? Make it one of these so you’re prepped for the big screen!
5 Burning Questions We Have After the Widow’s Bay Finale
Widow’s Bay has taken the interwebs by storm, similar to the wave of love ‘From’ received a few years back. Its inaugural season gave us 10 solid episodes with a WTF finale. Iain gives us the 5 burning questions the show left for us for the remainder of the story. Will there be a remainder of the story? There are spoilers for the season so if you’re like me and haven’t finished yet, pin this article to return. For those who are actually up to date on pop culture, take a deep dive into the questions. Do you think you know the answers? Let us know!
