Bonus Episode: Who Do You Think You Are by Tucker Shaw
<p>The third and final Patreon-exclusive episode, originally published Nov 30, 2023.</p> <p>Backlist: It's National Novel Writing Month! Hope everyone has had a satisfying and productive NaNo! Since we're hopefully balls deep in some deeply angsty writing project, we decided to take a break from our Melissa Marr season to do something a little silly and light. And by silly and light we of course mean spending almost two hours LOOKING DEEP WITHIN OUR SOULS FOR UNDERSTANDING with the help of Alloy Entertainment and their Real Human Author Tucker Shaw. This month we're reading WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE (published 2001), a book of extremely '00s personality quizzes designed to help teen readers understand their True Selves.</p> <p>So naturally we had to try them out - for ourselves, and some of our favorite fictional teens.</p> <p>Chill: Nothing fancy this week, just kicking back with some Great Lakes Brewing Co. Edmund Fitzgerald Porter (Ollie) and pineapple wine (Cyna).</p> <p>Intro theme - "Let It In" by <a href='https://www.joshwoodward.com/'>Josh Woodward</a>.</p> <p>(1h 47m. Content Warning: Profanity, alcohol consumption, sexually explicit and generally extremely filthy language.)</p>

Bonus Episode: Phantom of the Opera by Gaston Leroux
<p>The second of our three Patreon-exclusive episodes is here! Originally published Sep 27, 2023.</p> <p>Backlist: This episode has been a long time coming. Our good friend Raeven stops by to chat about Gaston Leroux's Phantom of the Opera, an extremely formative and influential story for us, the podcast, and YA at large. Which is why it's extremely funny and extremely weird that the novel is largely some sort of Abbot and Costello sketch with the plot of the musical going on in the background. This is gonna be a wild one.</p> <p>Chill: We are all drinking variations of Raeven's Backlist fan drink "Ambigously Brown". Ollie's got the closest to the original recipe: a hot cocoa with oatmilk, Abuelita drinking chocolate, Rumchata, and cinnamon, topped with mocha Whipshot. Cyna went iced: coffee with almond milk, chocolate syrup, Abuelita drinking chocolate, and Rumchata. Raeven's is on the go: this morning's coffee mixed with Abuelita drinking chocolate, Rumchata, and spiced vanilla rum, all dumped into a McCafe iced coffee, Pics! <a href='https://x.com/backlistpodcast/status/1706861705320358170?s=20'>Cyna</a> / <a href='https://x.com/raevenlywrites/status/1706859941523263893?s=20'>Raeven</a> / <a href='https://x.com/backlistpodcast/status/1706864128667557917?s=20'>Ollie</a></p> <p>As Mentioned: You can find Raeven on <a href='https://raevenlywrites.tumblr.com/'>Tumblr</a>, <a href='https://twitter.com/raevenlywrites'>Twitter</a>, and <a href='https://archiveofourown.org/users/raevenly/pseuds/raevenly'>A03</a> for some extremely Backlist-relevant fanfic.</p> <p>Intro theme - "Let It In" by <a href='https://www.joshwoodward.com/'>Josh Woodward</a>.</p> <p>(2h 05m. Content Warning: Profanity, alcohol consumption, sexually explicit and generally extremely filthy language, discussion of stalking, sexual harassment, suicide, and self-harm.)</p>

Bonus Episode: Play YA - One Was Lost
<p>Hey folks! Before this feed vanishes from the internet entirely, we wanted to share with you our Patreon exclusive episodes, as a last hurrah, and a thank you for listening these last five years. This is the first of three, an episode of a short-lived feature from our last podcast called Play YA, in which we played through YA novels as RPGs. Originally published to the Patreon feed Sep 29, 2022, and recorded much, much earlier than that.</p> <p>A group of teens are being hunted through the woods by an unknown threat after a school camping trip goes horribly awry in our rendition of One Was Lost by Natalie D. Richards. This game is powered by a rules-lite version of D&D 5e, and features our good friends <a href='http://twitch.tv/maverynthia'>Maverynthia</a>, Dave, and another who has stepped back from podcasting and asked not to be credited.</p> <p>This was recorded several years ago, so pronouns and audio setups have changed, but we thought it held up pretty well overall! We hope that you'll enjoy this very silly bonus episode.</p> <p>(3h 14m. Content Warning: Profanity, sexually explicit and generally extremely filthy language, discussion of vomiting and vomit...uh, consumption, urophagia, gory injuries, i.e. dismemberment, testicular trauma, compound fractures, flaying (no detailed descriptions), and of course, racism.)</p>
