Twilight Phase

FAM. MORE BREAKING NEWS. (Who woulda thought we'd have a THIRD breaking news episode of this podcast when we started a year ago?? Def not me.)  If you follow us on social, you know we just broke some WILD news: There are claims that SMeyer announced at her Booksamillion launch party that there will be MORE Twilight books. (Whhhhatttttttttttt) Cue: Twilight Phase detectives.  We found the...

Hey team!!! Here we are, picking up where we left off with last week's episode. This week we ask, could someone PLEASE help Jacob be his best self because he is getting on our last nerve. Why does Bella always gaslight HERSELF? Will Edward give in to his DRAMATIC TENDENCIES? and finally... what's that I smell? THAT'S PLOT BABY! TIME TO GO TO ITALY!!!!!! And after this, we take a break at the heigh...

ALERT ALERT!!! MIDNIGHT SUN IS NEARLY UPON US!!! In the meantime, Alice is BACK and she is harsher than expected!! Listen to us discuss why Alice is so mean to Bella, why Jake is so mean to Alice...and why Bella is so mean to HERSELF! Listeners, we were on a roll with this episode and it turned out to be ten times longer than took Bella to decide she didn't care Edward was a vampire (i.e. two hour...

Bella jumps off the cliff and Maya almost forgets to mention that the cliffhanger (get it) is that the Cullens have returned...but that's for next time! First we learn more from Jacob, and Bella almost drowns (or maybe does drown), which she's...fine with. Have you noticed Bella knows a lot about cars for someone who doesn't like them, that this is a book club, or that we're GREAT editors??? The r...

We're here to talk FANFICTION!! Woo boy do we have plenty to say. Tune in to hear an actual excerpt from Melissa's vampire deer fanfiction from back in the day!! We go in search of which ships are most popular now, and can't wait to tell you what we were reading during our Twilight phases. Write in to tell us your OTP, recommend a fic, or complain about how long we answer listener emails at twilig...

HEY, FAM. This week we discuss Chapter 14: Family. Bella meets ~the gang~ and sees her very first anger-induced werewolf transformation. Wowee! She also meets Emily, and boy do we have a lot of thoughts about her (or, shall we say, her description?). Jake ALSO continues to use the endearment "Honey," and we continue to hate it.  Will we ever not have strong opinions? Tune in to find out! Help...

HOWDY FAM in this episode we dig into werewolf mythology big time. Would you decide to turn into a werewolf if you could? And if you turned into a werewolf for the first time would you even know what's happening? Why does Jacob think he can call Bella "honey" all of a sudden??? Like, where does this guy get off???? ALL THIS AND MORE <3 <3 <3 Help us improve the pod! Check out Patreon.com/...

We may have had some technical difficulties, but we're still bringing you CONTENT. Don't worry, Melissa worked it out. ANYWAY Bella figures out the WEREWOLF THING but insists on some all-or-nothing thinking, and seems ready to accept Jacob as a murderer since she ~~loves~~ him...she really needs to see Melissa's therapist. Tune in for Bella and Jake's Who's on First conversation and Maya not being...

We don't believe in much (are narwhals even real?), but we DO believe Jacob is suddenly icky with his bitter eyes and refusal to answer questions. Seems like he believes in vampires, but Bella won't even make him talk about it!!! Even though apparently her most deep down desire was to be a vampire all along... Check out our ~revamped theme song~ this episode and compliment it at twilightphasepodca...

Bella finds DUN DUN DUN...the meadow!! Suddenly she's in way more danger than the motorcycle brought. Laurent! Victoria! Giant wolves! And worst of all, Jacob won't call her back.

Look team, we run the gamut of topics on this episode. From Bella being an "easy bleeder" whatever that means to Bella gaining EMPATHY. Also, why is The Monster assumed to be a giant bear and not bigfoot??? MAKE IT MAKE SENSE. Also Jacob begins to go downhill. RIP. Also, correction to the credits, this is the first episode edited by our very own Melissa! YAY SCHIRM! HIT US UP!! twilightphasepodcas...

Welcome back!!! These are the forgotten chapters of New Moon, like what even happens through here? Well, Bella meets Jacob's friends, lowkey stalks the Cullen house, and gets weirdly aggressive about Lauren cutting her hair. Oh yeah, and there's a creepy group of hall monitors gone rogue giving Jacob a weird amount of attention... We have some all star letters from listeners in this one AND Meliss...

A Midnight Sun MINISODE!! We're here to finally truly freak out about how Midnight Sun is coming out this year. (!!!) Plus we've got listener messages and hot takes. What are you most excited to read in MS? Don't forget: our Midnight Sun giveaway drawing is May 31, 2020. There's still time to enter! Check our socials for deets, or contact us at: twilightphasepodcast@gmail.com @twilight_phase (on T...

In the latest episode of Twilight Phase, we continue our journey into New Moon. While some may consider chapters 4&5 to be the start of a loooonnnggg, ~boring~ section, we take away some new things we didn’t notice the first read around: Bella is badass?? There is no difference between zombies and vampires?? Bella is still a terrible friend?? TUNE IN and validate our opinions.  Also don’t...

We didn't want to read it but you can't skip it: The Breakup. Bella sits in her anxiety and we discuss *just* how manipulative this break up is...plus Moby Dick (just roll with it) and Stephenie's iconic passing months. Don't miss our giveaway of Midnight Sun copies! Check out details on our social pages. Contact us at: twilightphasepodcast@gmail.com @twilight_phase (on Twitter and Instagram) twil...

TRIPLE RED ALERT LISTENERS!!! Confirmed here in the year of our Lord 2020, Stephenie Meyer is releasing Midnight Sun on August 4th!! You heard it here first (or maybe you didn't!) but this glorious addition to the Twilight Saga is officially happening. Twilight from Edward's point of view...we're blessed. Listen to this breaking news episode to hear all about how the countdown went...down, our ext...

We dive into the start of New Moon! Right from the start we get (too much?) Romeo and Juliet, Bella dreading getting old (sexist ageism?), and Edward's blase take on what he'd do if Bella died...fun!! But don't worry, there's lots of good stuff in here too, as you know well... We hear Stephenie doesn't love that wilting flower cover; do you? Contact us at: twilightphasepodcast@gmail.com @twil...

RED ALERT LISTENERS!!! Stephenie Meyer has a mysterious countdown on her website! Has she predicted the rapture? Or is the Host getting a sequel? Or is MIDNIGHT SUN FINALLY BEING PUBLISHED??? Listen now to learn why it's almost certainly Midnight Sun, and keep your ears to the ground for the big announcement on Monday! What do you hope the announcement is? Contact us at: twilightphasepodcast@gmail...

This is it! Our FINAL episode about LIFE AND DEATH before we dig into NEW MOON. The ending of this one is an EXTREME departure from TWILIGHT. Spoiler: Beau becomes a vampire and then things get weird. Let's get to it!  Have you read Life and Death? Reach out and tell us what you think! Think our takes are hot or not? Tell us that too! Contact us at: twilightphasepodcast@gmail.com @twilight_ph...

Welcome to part two of our reading of LIFE AND DEATH. This part is delightful popcorn before we dig into the ending in part three. Get ready for the truly wild changes made to the Port Angeles scene, Beau's weak vasovagal system, and seeing lots of women facing off against each other which EXCUSE ME but could have happened in Twilight all along.  Thanks for sticking with us and we'd love to h...

WOW OKAY so we read Life and Death , the gender-swapped Twilight , so that you don't have to. Listeners, it was a journey. Listen along to be swept up in the thrilling (?), heart-expanding (??), swoony (???) romance between Beau and Edythe ( ?????? ). Stephenie Meyer made some choices and we could not stop laughing.  Have you read Life and Death? Reach out and tell us what you think! Think ou...

This is it, y’all. The day we’ve been waiting for. We discuss the FINAL TWO chapters of Twilight. Moment of silence, please. Honestly shocked and awed we made it. And this ain’t even IT. We’re COMIN BACK for New Moon, and we’re honestly pumped. But until then, tune in and listen to our gross opinions as we conclude the first book in THE TWILIGHT SAGA. brb crying Contact us at: twilightphasepodcast...

Our good friend Shelly Romero joins us for a minisode about vampire media! What else did we read and watch, and what did Twilight bring to the vampire genre? What's next for vampires in YA lit today? Also, just take a guess at how many of us wrote Twilight fanfic . . . Contact us at: twilightphasepodcast@gmail.com @twilight_phase (on Twitter and Instagram) twilightphasepodcast.tumblr.com

In this ep, we continue to take a deep dive into the whole Bella-Values-Literally-Everything-Else-More-Than-Her-Own-Life thing (it’s her #brand), and how her plans are Smart and everyone else’s are STOOPID. Also James is high-key average? Sucks to suck, I guess. (AYYYYY) Contact us at: twilightphasepodcast@gmail.com @twilight_phase (on Twitter and Instagram) twilightphasepodcast.tumblr.com

As Bella breaks Charlie's heart and returns to Phoenix, we dive into why Charlie is the best (guess whose OTP was Charlie/Esme . . .) and how our opinions of Rosalie have changed since our first reads (duh). And when Alice's super-vampire hearing fails us, Bella herself won't. Girl is noble, but she's smart. Contact us at twilightphasepodcast@gmail.com @twilight_phase on Twitter and Instagram twil...
