After a year and a half of laughs, hot takes, and more banter than we ever imagined, Banterly is coming to a close.
But don’t worry—in this final episode, co-hosts Aidan and Maya leave us with recommendations for what’s next, their current media obsessions, and their all-time favorites that make up the Banterly Hall of Fame (and yes—Aidan finally gets to talk about The Real Housewives).
Most of all, they reflect on how much the show has meant to them and how much they’ve loved sharing it with you.
It’s not goodbye forever, but it is goodbye for now.

The Trigger Word of This Episode Is Lena Dunham
In the penultimate episode of Banterly, Aidan and Maya dig into what it means to love something the internet loves to hate. From the timeless debate over separating art from the artist to their hot takes on Lena Dunham’s new Netflix series Too Much, they unpack complicated creators, unlikable protagonists, and the fine line between being “too much” and not enough.

Are We F1 Fans Now? (Unclear.)
In this episode of Banterly, hosts Aidan and Maya return with updates, hot takes, and a full-speed dive into the world of Formula 1—well, sort of. Maya vents about the chaos of apartment hunting in NYC, and the duo unpacks Coldplaygate.
They also swap stories about their most unhinged driving moments before diving into the Brad Pitt F1 movie, which left them with more questions than answers. From Lewis Hamilton to pit stops (which Aidan hilariously calls “quick changes”), they reflect on how little they actually know about the sport...but maybe that’s part of the fun. Plus, they share bittersweet news about the podcast’s upcoming final stretch.
