The Twilight Saga: New Moon (2009) Movie Commentary Track for Quarantine and Beyond
Welcome back to Forks, and to our immortal tale of Bella Swan, Edward Cullen, and Jacob Black. To follow up Twilight One: Whoosh, may I now present you with Twilight Two: Sigh. It’s been a while, but Stephenie Meyer’s Midnight Sun is now out, and your host needs to get back on the horse. Included are such monologues as: rollercoasters—safer than cars? Either one seems safer than jumping off a cliff into a stormy ocean with your shoes on! If you can’t handle MOUTH SOUNDS such as sniffing and gulping, please do not listen, because Meg still has the plague. Stay well, Star-crossed Lovers, and we’ll meet you for Eclipse!

Emergency Episode in Response to SPD, the Murder of George Floyd, and Genocide of Black Americans
As most of you know, there is a genocide of Black Americans occurring in the United States today. I ask that you visit https://www.aclu.org for more resources to donate and get involved. Last episode, you learned I am an introvert. But we have to step outside of our preferences in order to speak for what’s right. It isn’t perfect—our allotted time was cut from two minutes to one—but here is my public testimony at the Seattle City Council and Lisa Herbold’s Public Safety Commission’s Emergency Meeting. You will hear my testimony be cut off at the end by the Council. Seattle and many other American cities have become dictatorial war zones where civilians are being brutalized and murdered for peaceably exercising their rights. I’ve worked inside and outside of politics, and I know that in our system there is only concern for job security and advancement of power, not for equality and progress. If you feel moved by what I share, please engage with the Black Lives Matter movement, and you can email me at meghansolopodcast@gmail.com and I will do my best to outfit you with resources for action in your area. Please elect Black womxn leaders, please protect your Black and Brown neighbors, please organize behind Black leadership. Remember Charleena Lyles, remember George Floyd, and let’s keep at the bastards in charge until they are forced to change. The perfomative phony rich white liberal Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan has, since this recording, ALREADY rejected proposals to even cut funding to our taxpayer-funded genocide squads. Remain strong #InDefenseofBlackLives and #DefundPolice, NOW.

Twilight (2008) Movie Commentary Track for Quarantine and Beyond
Hello, star-crossed lovers! Ready for the upcoming release of Midnight Sun?? Please enjoy this, Meghan Solo’s first EVER recording of nearly anything: the commentary track for the Kristen Stewart/Robert Pattinson vehicle based on Stephenie Meyer’s smash, Twilight. In this episode, Meg battles flu symptoms and microphone battery packs to bring you some personal anecdotes about these stories. Keywords and phrases to listen for include “sweet” and “deeply flawed.” **** For more Twilight content at this time of need, please check out two amazing influences on this podcast, “The Nibbler” and “Twilight in Quarantine” podcasts. **** There were many errors in this episode, including the year this film actually came out! That was Vudu’s fault. Honest. Also, this picture was filmed largely in Oregon, not British Columbia. Who knew??? **** Feedback from this episode has been that it is more funny if you DO line it up with the film. So if you’re writing in to tell me I’m not funny, please let me know whether I was not funny with the film, or not funny without the film. For science. Thank you!
