BONUS: Looking into the Trees of One Dark Window
from A Pod of Sass and Sarcasm · host A Pod of Sass and Sarcasm
What an exciting way to celebrate the 1 year anniversary of the pod! We finally looked up information about the trees that the families of Blunder in One Dark Window by Rachel Gillig are named after, and we think we have found a lot of insight into who the characters are and why they behave in certain ways. This was really neat to do, and we were so glad for the opportunity! Maybe there will be another bonus episode in the future that looks into the trees, flowers, and plants we missed in this one. Like the pines... and laburnum... and the ivies and thistle... We'll get right on that! But in the meantime, enjoy this session of two science nerds spitting facts about trees and relating that to the characters in the book.Also, we have a new drinking game that's not limited to this season of the pod: Any time Sara says the word "interesting" or any of its synonyms, TAKE A DRINK (of whatever beverage you choose), because she says it a lot, and now that we've heard it, we can't unhear it, so you might as well play along.Find us on Facebook at A Pod of Sass and SarcasmFollow us on Instagram @a_pod_of_sassCheck out our Story Graph @aposasDonate to our Patreon at patreon.com/apodofsassandsarcasmSend us an email at [email protected] our website at aposas.comListen to new episodes (most) Saturdays, wherever you find podcasts.
