Threshing Day FULL BREAKDOWN: Our reactions, theories, and favourite moments
SPOILER ALERT FOR FOURTH WING SERIES AND THRESHING DAY
Today we are diving into Threshing Day, the newest novella in the Fourth Wing series by Rebecca Yarros. And you better hold on to your dragon, because there is SO MUCH to unpack today.
How Rebecca Yarros managed to fit so much in under 200 pages is insane, but don’t let the length fool you… this book was impactful and informative and sets up the remaining books of the Fourth Wing series beautifully. Rebecca Yarros truly is a genius, and we cannot wait to share all of our unfiltered thoughts with you.
Have our thoughts on Xaden Riorson changed? What did we learn about Violet’s family and the rest of the Sorrengail’s? Are the dragons lying to everyone? Are the SCRIBES lying to everyone?! We have SO many questions, and not all of them have answers…
Join us as we talk about this anticipated release in detail, and we hope you enjoy today’s episode! Don’t forget to subscribe, and like this video to see more content like this!

Thirty, flirty and thriving? Re-watching 13 Going on 30 while in our 30’s!
13 Going on 30 is a beloved romcom by so many, and is often a theme for 30th birthday parties (just ask us, we would know…), but does it stand the test of time? That is the question we are asking on today’s episode of Banquette Breakdown.
Jac turned thirty last month, and because of that, we wanted to share our thoughts on this classic movie in today’s episode. One major thing we noticed though? This movie is slightly concerning when you watch it as an adult. Don’t get us wrong, we LOVE this classic romcom… but thinking about it with a fully developed brain? We have some CONCERNS. But at the same time, you simply cannot beat the nostalgia of growing up watching this movie. Jennifer Garner and Mark Ruffalo? Say less.
Join us as we break down a potentially problematic plot, while also reminiscing on what it was like to watch this growing up, and how much fun it seemed to be thirty, flirty and thriving.

Welcome back for another episode of Banquette Breakdown!
Today we are discussing our TOP CINDERELLA retellings. Do the classic stories hold up against more modern takes? And what is our absolute favourite movie version of the Cinderella story?
There are so many versions out there - Bridgerton season 4 had a Cinderella vibe, There’s the classic Disney Cinderella, and so many modern takes on the story that it can actually be a little bit overwhelming. We are breaking down our favourites, and why there is ONE version of the story that seems to rise above the rest of them… can you guess what that might be?
