The gang is enjoying their time together in Paris, it's Tara's birthday, and Nick comes out to a room full of people! Also, as we were recording this, we got the news about Echo. I have cut it from the main e...

HI! So sorry this took so long. Please enjoy Andi, Zach, and myself jumping right back in where we left off last episode! Also thank you so much for going on this journey with me. I know coverage was quite a different vibe to the Heartstopper content you are used to from this pod. I appreciate all of you who continued to listen. And I am so happy that we met some new listeners along the way, as we...

WE'RE COMING TO THE COTTAGE! Andi and Zach join me for a lot of melting and jumping off emotional cliffs as we work our way through a little over half the season one finale! Of course, it had to be split in two recordings because we simply had too much to say. I hope you all enjoyyy! Shout out to Eli for the insight on the song from the car ride to the cottage! Here is the link to the youtube...

Helloooo everyone! I am joined by my friends KT, Lizzie, and Joe this week and we are back to talk all about the supportive female besties, The Tampa All Star Game Adventure, the iconic cottage invitation, THE monologue, and of course, the kiss that changed everything! I can’t believe we are already talking episode five! Stay tuned for a special bonus episode coming out soon where I got to chat wi...

Who is ready to have their heart stomped out?! I have my friends and Youtubers, Zachary Patton Garcia and Alastair Patton Garcia, with me to head to Boston for some steamy sex, tune melts, getting a little too vulnerable, and then leaving as quickly as possible. And then we head down to the club to break some hearts even further but hey, at least there's bisexual lighting! Also, we get our int...

Hi! I am back with Adam and Andi (Triple A status this time) to take a trip to the Big Apple and have some very gross looking smoothies! What a gem this episode is. We get to add Maria and Elena to the Girls Protecting the Gays Committee. We get a nice break from the horrible communication we have seen previously, as these two are just open and honest from jump. Also, shout out to Kip's dad fo...

I am back with a brand new set of cohosts!! This episode I have Jeremy, Susan, and Aliza joining me to dive into flirty text montages, a sex scene far too tender to be casual, the emotional terror that is the Sochi Olympics, panic attacks in award show bathrooms, and crying in Vegas... again. So sorry for my elderly dog barking like mad from around minute 13 to around minute 40. You can only hear...

Oh, hello there. Welcome to our Heated Rivalry Discussions! This episode I have Ian Carlos Crawford and Chelsea King visiting Canada with me to meet our soulmate, head to the draft, form a rivalry, and then (naturally) start fucking. [[Update: My tv is very old and I watched this episode on a friend's very nice new tv and was like omg, that is for sure NOT suite that Hayden is wearing. There's lik...

Hi! I am back with a new friend, Gloria, to chat about the Mental Health representation we get in the show and how important it is. CW: This means we are going to be touching on a lot of tough topics that could be triggering. I don't know what I was knocking around so much during this recording but I am sorry for the bumps and thumps! If you or someone you know is struggling, here are some res...

Hi! Here’s a really old recording I did with Alyssa continuing the comics! It was SO LOVELY to hear her voice again on the pod.🥹 (Note: this was recorded so long ago that we use the wrong pronouns for Darcy. They hadn’t canonically changed their pronouns yet. I am sorry about that!!) There’s a lot of background noise in this one and I am sorry for that, as well. It was clearly summer. There’s mow...

OH HI!! I have missed you so and I am so glad to be back! I have Sabrina with me to wrap up season three with our overall thoughts, favorite scenes, and reading out your emails! Adam was unable to join us but he sent in his thoughts so you will get to hear him in this episode, as well! There is a weird clipping every now and then thanks to my internet connection the day we recorded this over zoom....

HI. After scheduling conflicts and a week long sickness, I present to you OUR FINAL episode on Heartstopper the show?! I sobbed writing a little message for the top of this episode and had to just read it word for word to keep from sobbing on mic. lololol We are diving into Uni trips, buying sex supplies, the summer fete, and boyfriend sleepovers. This might be one of the longest eps we have relea...

Our hearts swell watching Tao, Naomi, and Felix help to put Elle back...

Hi! We are back to catch up with Adam and hear all of his thoughts for Winter and Body before we dive back into the last two episodes together. We also read out some comments and emails and discuss the lovely insight you all shared with us. Note: The outro says we will be back in 2 weeks with "Together" BUT I actually have so much going on this upcoming week that I am thinking I am going to have t...

Hi! We are back (with the correct audio this time) on the Spring couch picking back up right where we left off. Charlie is sliding deeper and deeper into the darkness until Jane and Julio finally offer him a lifeline. He packs up and heads into a treatment facility. Susan and Geoff are there to help him through it and he comes out the other side feeling better. We get to see the Tao's full vid...

Who's ready to cry?! This episode has so much packed in that we decided to split it between two discussions with Nick's half first and Charlie's half next time! So join us today, as Nick learns the benefits of journaling. Charlie heads off to the Daffodil Clinic. The friendship group comes together to support not only Charlie, but also Nick. Sahar has a massive halloween party and also...

Hi! (This is another super long one. I had some major   technical difficulties in the editing process and it took me literal ages. I am now three hundred and forty-seven years old as I type this out for you. Please excuse the animals you can hear in the background sometimes and the entire last 40 minutes or so is only very roughly edited because it just kept freezing so I had to save my sanity and...

Who's ready to go be really sad in Menorca?! 🫠 (Heads up, I was sick when we recorded this. You can hear it in my voice but also there is some real heavy breathing sometimes because I simply could not breathe through my nose. Apologies! -Ash) Darcy moves in with their Gran who is a LEGEND. Nick heads off on holiday with his Aunt Diane who is ALSO a legend. Tao and Elle are absolutely insufferable...

Hiiii!!!!! (First, I just want to note that we use the wrong pronouns for Darcy several times in this recording. We do much better moving forward in the season. Apologies for the mistakes!! Also, you can hear my dog barking a couple of times. He is old and does what he wants.) Season three begins!! "Charlie wants to say I love you." Tao is planning the most romantic summer he can possibly pull off...

Hi! I am THRILLED to give you the kick off episode for our season three coverage! I am so ready to get into this season. I have been watching it on repeat and crying nonstop. This is just an intro ep where Adam and I talk a bit about the season as a whole and what we loved about it, a little of what we would have changed, how certain things translated over from the comics to the show, the music, a...
