Ep. 64- They Often Have Him In A Barrel (The Poppy War)

Send us Fan MailLaura has once again watched the "Jackie Daytona" episode of What We Do in the Shadows. It's an amazing piece of television that she thinks everyone should see. Multiple times. She also read the second book of the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series and can't wait to watch Jason Mantzoukas in the upcoming Disney+ show. Hannah has been watching a fascinating show on Apple TV, but is confused why they didn't just let Adam Scott go by his real name in the show. Hannah also read some books that Laura recommended to her which made Laura nervous.  Then we get into a great discussion of the characters of The Poppy War and some overall thoughts on the book and series so far. CW: Self harm; racism; war; sexual assault; drug useMedia Mentions:The Poppy War by R.F.
