Apologies for the delay (and the audio feedback in our fun segment), but we are REALLY getting into some juicy moments from Six of Crows as we discuss chapters 7-9.
- Look forward to our first LIVE EPISODE recording at LeakyCon Chicago later this summer!
- Matthias is fueled by revenge, a misplaced sense of justice, and repression
- What’s so hard to understand about this: Kaz has a good reason for EVERYTHING he does
- There’s a good reason the chapters focus on one character but from another character’s perspective (cough… Jesper and Wylan… cough)
- It takes more than just big muscles to whoops someone’s ass
- Fun Segment: Set the Scene, “Bluey” edition!
- Question of the week: If you were part of the Ice Court job, which of the Crows do you think is the most valuable?
Next time: Chapters 10-11!

This week we have a guest spot we did with the amazing Book and Bottle Podcast:
Callisa and Holly are joined by Julianna and Geoff in this review episode of Ninth House and Hell Bent by Leigh Bardugo. They discuss the heavy triggers within the book, the descent into Hell, and of course glowstick dick energy. Ninth House and Hell Bent follow the main character, Alex Stern, as she gets a new chance at life when she's invited to a secret magical society at Yale because she can see ghosts. However, murders, chaos, and corruption soon follow.
WARNING: SPOILERS AND EXPLICIT CONTENT. Also, be sure to check the specific triggers of each book.

- We are no longer censoring our curse words! You have been warned ;-)
- All the different types of men (well, at least 3)
- Harshaw & Kaz would be best buds, not that Kaz would admit it.
- Turns out the third amplifier was with them all along, but they still had to hunt the bird to find it.
- If your chapter ends on a cliffhanger, cancel your plans.
- Fun Segment: Set the Scene: Birdcage edition!
Question of the week: Would you rather hunt the Firebird with team 1 or team 2?
Next time: chapters 15 and 16!

Geoff and Julianna have been off on their own amazing adventures in the past few weeks, much like the Darkling in Leigh Bardugo’s latest release. So, we’re taking some time to talk about each of them:
- NYCC, Kitt Young’s new Netflix movie, and Leigh Bardugo gives life to a fellow author’s iconic character
- Demon in the Wood (singular) is a must have!
- Are there any actual heroes or villains in this story? We aren’t 100% sure
- Julianna runs the Chicago marathon (and it took quite an interesting turn)
- Geoff performed at Denver LeakyCon
- We’ve been so busy on our adventures, we forgot the question we asked our listeners a few weeks ago
Next time: chapters 8, 9 and 10!

This week Geoff and Julianna are jet-setting so we have a special episode from the other Juliana for you! Enjoy!
Summary:
“Be yourself because everyone else is already taken” is a quote from Oscar Wilde that Geoff lives by. Geoff is on the podcast today to talk all things on the importance of saying yes to new opportunities that might scare you, why it’s important to be yourself and to not care what others think of you. This episode is a feel-good episode and an inspiration to be the best version of you you can be!
Geoff is a 33 year-old, non-binary, pansexual, vegetarian warehouse worker from Louisville, Kentucky. They are a podcaster, a runner, a wizard rock star, and an anime convention staff member. They have a wife and four cats and are a happy family.

There are a lot of highs and lows (no really, they literally go up super high after being underground) in chapters 6 and 7:
- It’s not a question of “are we going to get Hell Bent?” It’s a question of “which version do we pre-order?”
- THE TEASER FOR SHADOW & BONE: SEASON 2 IS OUT!
- The return of characters both great and horrible! Baghra and Nikolai are here, but so is the King of Ravka
- Genya finally confronts her abuser and lives her truth (CW: this episode contains discussion of rape and sexual assault).
- Mal is trying, Alina is trying, but there’s really only so much they can do about their relationship at this point
- Fun segment: MAD LIBS! Nikolai returns in this episode, so we had to!
Question of the week: Give us a funny insult we can use especially for the Apparat (example: we call Mal “douche canoe”).
Next time: chapters 8, 9 and 10!

We are SO CLOSE to the end of Shadow and Bone, we can smell it! Even though we had some technical issues with this one, we had a great conversation about chapters 19 and 20.
- Most of our listeners seem to agree they should have let Morozova’s stag go, and one of them might just be Julianna’s new best friend
- We noticed a slight issue with the pacing in these two chapters
- Mal and Alina are making up, but is it enough?
- There might have been a more humane alternative when it comes to amplifiers
- Julianna LOVES how petty the Darkling is being right now
- People we feel bad for: Ivan, David, Genya, but especially Baghra
- Nobody knows Alina has been gone this whole time. Where did they think she was?
- Disciples of the Darkling: who makes the cut, and who is thinking of switching sides?
- Fun segment: Return of the Mad Lib!
Question of the week: If you were in Genya’s shoes, what would you do?

We’re getting close to the end of Shadow and Bone! This week, it’s chapters 15 and 16.

- Last week, fabrikators were opening a craft store. This week, they’re bartenders!

- We need to talk about the Volcra, even though it’s sad
- If Baghra is the one who is worried about you, then you know something is wrong
- Praying for you is one thing, but praying TO you while you’re still alive? Wild stuff!

- Julianna has an issue with the level of technology. Can’t they think of a faster vehicle than a horse and cart?
- Enjoy the lack of communication between Alina and Mal because it’s going to last a while (but maybe that’s just good writing)

Question of the week: When Mal returns from getting supplies from Petrozoi, what is he wearing?

We discuss chapters 11 and 12 of Shadow and Bone this week with all the usual nonsense!
- Shoutouts to two grishaverse podcasts we just became aware of: “Grishaverse” and “Crow’s Corner”
- If you read the Apparat in Gilbert Gottfried’s voice, he’s more likeable (according to Geoff)
- Enter Zoya Nazyalensky: big mean girl energy that gets shut down surprisingly fast
- The Apparat is incapable of just walking into a room and having a conversation
- Alina’s path to sainthood and getting over Mal: how’s it going so far?
- We can’t help but wonder if amplifiers are just not a good idea
- The Darkling and Baghra have something going on, and we want to know what it is
- Achievement unlocked: Alina FINALLY gets some answers and unleashes her power!
- “Geoff and Julianna’s Friendship Corner” - because Julianna made Geoff watch “Camp Rock” and now everyone is going to hear about it

- Meet Botkin! He has an interesting approach not unlike Baghra’s
- Good golly, grisha love to gossip! Maybe there’s a reason for it…
- The Darkling just keeps messing with Alina’s head, and he might be doing the same with Mal
- Alina is a-lonely, but how much of that is really her fault?
- The Apparat: not someone you would want to stand in line behind at Starbucks
- The Lives of Saints is a real book, y’all! Like, for real!

In chapters 3 and 4 of Shadow and Bone, there are A LOT of people trying to figure out what happened in the Shadow Fold, but none of them are that bothered about explaining it to Alina!
You can go THROUGH the Fold, but can you go over/around it?
There are a lot of applicants to be Mal’s hat
The First and Second Armies need couple’s counseling
We want the number for the Darkling’s interior decorator
Ivan is an excellent soldier (and a total jerk)
Alina could use some healing, both physically and emotionally
Fedyor and Ivan play “Good Cop/Bad Cop”
If you’re going to amplify people, informed consent is required!
The Fjerdans make a bad first impression
The Darkling proves he’s more than just a pretty face
To kill or to cure? That is the question.
Kiss, Marry, Kill
Mal, Alexi, and Fedyor
Head cartographer, grisha captain, the volcra that killed Alexi
Question of the week: How old does the Darkling tell Alina he is?
Next time: Shadow and Bone - Chapters 5 and 6
