ThunderQuack Podcast Network
Your hosts, Ryan and Chloë, go in cold to the final, very satisfying episode of the show we’ve been with for seven seasons.
The gang gets the ultimate choice in the penultimate episode of Riverdale: how much of all their lives and avatars do they want to remember?
The Russians are coming! Or, in fact, have arrived. Riverdale goes black and white to say two very different goodbyes to three long-standing Riverdale characters.
A vintage stag film sets the stage for a surprise return of a Cooper household character; plus, a half-expected, half-surprise pairing finally smooches.
Hello Riverdale Gang!
The strike continues; Riverdale does not.
This Podcast will return with watch-along critical commentary for all 5 final episodes as soon as we can, presumably with the end of the strike. We are so excited to talk to you again soon Gang. Until then!

Yet another strike special! We're standing in solidarity and reflecting on what brings us joy. Big love to everyone on the picket lines, and our Riverdale Gang listeners waiting patiently for us to return to our regularly scheduled programming.
This week on not talking about struck content, Ryan and Chloe talk about our first hand experiences in and around Vancouver filmmaking, and break down the unreasonable and exploitative job conditions that we've been indoctrinated to accept as normal.
Per SAG-AFTRA's podcasting guidelines, no watch-alongs until the strike is done! We indulge in a brief ramble about labour action and politics, and we'll see you next week.
This week is a two-parter! In light of the ongoing SAG-AFTRA strike, we interviewed local actor Annette Reilly, Diana Spellman of the Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, to give her perspective on being an actor in a union, and on how the strike is affecting film workers in Vancouver. In the second half, we talk about how it is impossible to do feminism outside of the broken container of patriarchy in Riverdale's knock-out beauty pageant episode.
McCarthyism meets a historical crusade against comic books (we Googled it) meets English nerd this week on Riverdale, with the return of our usual big bad and his Cuban cigars.
The Bulldogs go to bat - or hoop - for Reggie, while Mary Andrews is finally the parent Betty and Veronica need. But what's next for Riverdale?
Howloween dawns with a curfew, a potential threesome, and a burlesque to look forward to - but darkness descends during trick or treating.
Big acting and fast cars, we get hints of George Lucas's film, along with a murder solving romance and the Black Athena bookclub.
A Double Digest! Tying two very different moods together, with a dash of wise sad Jughead; Betty and Veronica star.
Reggie and Tabitha return to complete our cast this week. Everything is still suspiciously normal in the town of Riverdale, by which we mean conspicuously racist. Also, queer romance thrives.
Our gang are increasingly confused at what the adults are even mad about as the sexual repression party continues. Archie is an ally, Betty is here to burn it all down, Veronica is a business owner again, and Jughead acquires a mentor... briefly
Riverdale does a peep show, but make it consensual and charmingly adolescent. Plus, the return of Evelyn Evernever and creepy-edition Uncle Frank.
And now for an anthology of short stories, teaching vital moral lessons, like 'don't be horny, or a nerd, or a woman.'
Romance starts with Friendship this week, as the problems of the 50s feel dangerously contemporary.
Smooches all around! We enjoy Cheryl and Kevin leaking out of their closed closet doors, while Betty spreads the good word on Sex
Gee willikers, it sure is the 50s! Riverdale returns to it's tropes, stages our ensemble, and sets up a hard shift to Horror
Welcome back, Gang, One More Time! Riverdale dives right in to the 50s with the death of James Dean and acquittal of the murderers of Emmett Till. Also, the gang return to highschool!
A cinematic wrapup that makes the whole season shine brighter! Distracting us from all the beautiful emotions is the magnificent premise for Season 7 - speculate with us!
Percival explains it all, and Surprise! He's settler colonialism and catholic guilt in a trenchcoat. Jughead and Tabitha see things. Real stakes, higher than we've seen since Midge Klump? A penultimate tour de force that ties the whole season together.
Sabrina inserts herself and Nick into the Gang, Reggie surprises us, and Cheryl does something obvious.
This penultimate penultimate sees our stakes shoot through the roof with seven plagues upon this wicked little town.
It’s the musical episode? Sorta not really, but it is a fine bit of plot that bring Betty, Cheryl, and Unions to the spotlight
The puppeteering continues with Reggie the dummy and Kevin the stooge, and a slew of mentors continue training the gang for magic war.
Ominous mentors and building tension as our heroes level up. And what the hell is a Ghost Train?
The heroics continue, and Veronica has entered the game. Ryan and guest host Channing dig in.
Riverdale is d e l i v e r i ng. We take a left turn into sorcery and dig into the characters’ trauma, with a dark, bookish twist.
Say what you like about Riverdale, but this show really knows how to move between genres. In this episode of two-handers, the show delivers on several emotional sweet spots. Ryan and Chloe discuss.
A tour of Riverdale’s history, complete with exploding angels, Tabitha’s secret power, and the beginning of season 6’s endgame.
All right – super strength, aggression aura, mind-reading, and now firecasting? The Riverdale roller coaster continues to unfold, with a great sneak-attack plot re-focus on Tabitha!
Witchy rituals bump up against superpower mysteries in this rich genre mash-up. We’re here for the ride!
Well, Riverdale Gang, we think that the superhero genre is working for Riverdale. What bets have we got on the origins of Percival Pickens?
Superhero is the new genre in Riverdale! A solid episode with great beats and fun surprises. Big thanks to our listener Jonathan Powell who let us know that we are indeed getting a 22-episode season!
… is this a superhero story now? Ryan and Chloe are not sure, but we ARE sure that we’re glad to be back, Riverdale Gang!
The payoff is huge, buds. This is one damn fun episode of television. Watch it. No, seriously – watch it.
We love this witchy, thoughtful, cohesive episode! Posting a little late due to some technical difficulties. Thanks for bearing with us!
Well, one thing you can say about Riverdale, is that they always deliver the unexpected. (Except when they don’t, good point). La Llorona, the spectre of an abusive driving teacher, and a linger unhappy couple come to call. Ryan and Chloe discuss.
Going where no Riverdale has gone before – except, they kinda did already? Chloe drops in for a brief chat while Ryan discusses with guest-host and Thunderquack favourite, Amanda Konkin.
Here we are, pals! Riverdale sends us off with a slam-bang finish, complete with witch burnings, exile, and a heady mix of gangland and municipal politics. See you next season and thanks so much for sticking with us through another season of this wonderful dark sugar trash milkshake of a show.
Next to normal is not how we’d ever describe Riverdale – but they get there this week. Just a little grief, a little romance, and some lovingly belted show tunes.
Friends, this was one solid episode of Riverdale. Mothmen become Blossoms, and the four elements and a ghost army save some miners. You know, the usual.
A solid episode of Riverdale with Chloe flying the Riverdale Gang ship solo this week. Cults, war memories, and plagiarism collide as we catch up with our five main characters. Here’s a link to Dr. Janja Lalich’s website. She is an internationally renowned expert on cults and coercion. http://cultresearch.org/
We loved this episode. So much. Josie and the Pussycats return to Riverdale. Enough said.
A gorgeous Riverdale episode from Madchen Amick makes for just a nice, thoughtful episode of Riverdale Gang. A late episode, but better late than never!
This episode was like flipping through channels! We aren’t sure, gang, feels like set-up for next week. Join us!
Riverdale made a bold choice this week! Diving into flavours of The Godfather while keeping that shiny Riverdale veneer, we slow down with languid dialogue and amber lighting. Ryan and Chloe discuss.
And we’re off, with a blood opal, a cult revival, and our first post-hiatus musical number! It’s getting, if possible, weirder in Riverdale. Ryan and Chloe discuss queer-baiting and Chloe fully has to put a coin in the swear jar (sorry, gang).
Season 5 Part 2 is back August 11th! Ryan and Chloe debrief the new trailer, including aliens, smooches, mystery men, and the return Josie! Starting August 12th, we’ll see you on Thursday afternoons or evenings for the deconstruction of our favourite weird dark sugar trash confection.

The gang dons their gowns, crosses the stage, and moves into the next stage of their lives. Ryan and Chloë love this episode.
This episode generated some great discussions! Lots of things to unpack, things to get excited about, and then also – Jellybean knows all just like her big brother Charles? Wow.
Or anti-climax? It’s kinda like Riverdale just picked up where it left off, which we’re here for. Prom comes and the inevitable first break up.

Reflections on fame, Covid, art, and this sharp new episode from Riverdale from Ryan and Chloë, as we wind down into our unexpected season finale.
Lift up your hands to this strange and wonderful new musical episode from our favourite dark sugar trash show.
All is revealed. Well, except what exactly is Charles’s deal and why is no one talking about it?
Betty slays, but not in the way you might think. Ryan and Chloë swoon over this episode.

We get the How-to-Get-Away-with-Murder shocker we deserve in this last episode before our holiday break
These are your Riverdale Gang hosts telling you that we got EXACTLY what we wanted out of this episode.
Giving thanks in Riverdale involves making your relatives think they’ve committed cannibalism. Yep. Really.
Secret brother: gay. Fake secret brother: also gay. It’s starting to be a very interesting ride, Riverdale.
Plot for days over here in Riverdale! Ryan and Chloë speculate about where the season in going.
Riverdale gets about as horror as the CW will let them get, and we get to see some big plot points revealed.
We say goodbye to lots of old plots and go headlong into the new in episode three of this new season

Ryan and Chloë take a break from summer fun to have Riverdale fun in an interview with Nikolai Witschl, a local Vancouver actor who plays the coroner Dr. Curdle Jr. on Riverdale, as well as Howard (although we thought it was Harold in the interview!), Harvey Kinkle’s high-strung artist residency room mate on Chilling Adventures […]
The Penultimate episode of Season 3! Ryan and Chloe compare to the climactic arcs of the first two seasons.
Chloë flies solo in Philadelphia while Ryan is in geeky tech, for evil prom night complete with a headless corpse.
A long-distance phone call between Chloe and Ryan yields some interesting results, but we enjoyed the episode. Betty rules.
We’re breaking our jaws on the episode, but there is hope in that we are revving up for endgame, and where Riverdale truly shines.
We’re feeling the post-Heathers comedown but heck are there some beautifully lit shots in this episode. Ryan and Chloe discuss.
Riverdale does the musical Heathers. Ryan and Chloë sing the praises (get it?) of this killer episode
In this episode, the plot gets as thick as an over-sweetened bellini from La Bonne Nuit. We liked it.
A tender episode in which we have fun, enjoy the show, and pay a short tribute to Riverdale’s most beloved dad. Note: our grief talk is at the end, so any listeners who don’t want to take part can be given space.
Just another day in Riverdale, referencing Heart of Darkness and Apocalypse Now. Meanwhile, Archie is not Million Dollar Baby, just a 5G one. Ryan and Chloe discuss. Note: Ryan rather badly mispronounces the name of the Kwakwa̱ka̱ʼwakw Nation this episode – you can find examples of proper Kwak’wala language pronunciation and more at The […]
Riverdale goes full noir in this episode, where each of our main four get an adult that holds them in a moral bind.
Ryan is joined by Andrew Lynch this week to bring a little levity to our sugar trash, just in time to see Mr. Lodge’s fine china broken!
Ryan and Chloe are back with a surprising mid-season premiere of Riverdale that indicates that every kind of cult is afoot in Riverdale.
Welcome to 2019! We hang out with “Chilling Adventures of Sabrina”’s own Diana Spellman, Annette Reilly, and talk about working with RAS, her time on set, and a special show-vs-show baseball game!
Mid-season finale! Riverdale returns to its roots with cheerleaders and parents being parents before setting off on what promises to be a truly wild ride in 2019.

It’s another hiatus week. Chloe and Ryan take stock of where our characters are at – Jughead the gamemaster? We love it! – while we also provide plenty of salty feedback on how to stop making this about straight people.
A Lot Happens is how we could summarize this whole season of Riverdale- this episode takes the cake! Featuring in-depth critique of why Shawshank homage might fall emotionally flat with guest cohost Fairlith.
Riverdale got weird. Like, really weird. Get ready. Ryan and Chloe also open the episode by discussing objectification, the midterm elections, and the perceived dangers of D&D.
The gospel is spreading in Riverdale, but which gospel is the question. Meanwhile, Archie gets bloodied up good. Host Chloe is joined by friend Keigh Pry, audiophile extraordinaire, while Ryan takes a night off to be a theatre producer.
Surprise! You thought Riverdale was weird dark sugar trash! It’s actually eight new genres! Ryan and Chloe discuss.
Season 3 opens, and not with a whimper, but a bang. The last three minutes were an unexpected twist that ensures us that Riverdale will keep us guessing. Ryan and Chloe are pleased to welcome the Riverdale Gang back to a third season of watch-along critical commentary.
How excited are we for Riverdale Season 3? Too excited, that’s how. It’s going to be a great season, not least because we’re also excited to maybe see some crossover with The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina.

This is a dark episode of Riverdale. Ryan and Chloë revel in it. Enough said. Today’s episode opens with a discussion of Genre as a concept with special guest Emily Tyler. For further reading, we suggest this article: Click to access chandler_genre_theory.pdf
We get a good sense of how much teenagers think they can solve everything and how thoroughly the police state invades to homes of the lower working class in this taught episode that includes a killer cover of Kids in America. Plus, what on earth is a polyamorist?
The burger hits the fan in this one, with Bughead playing out adolescent boundary pushing, Archie throwing a rager, and two of our queer characters pretending oh-so-hard to be straight.
We head straight for the sticky centre of Riverdale high society as the Blossom clan descends for the annual tree-tapping. Cheryl has an agenda that leaves Archie with a moral dilemma, while Veronica is facing a moral dilemma of her own. Ryan and Chloe have plenty to say about this sugary sweet maple fiesta.
What happens when you put the Coopers, the Blossoms, and the Lodges in a single apartment for a baby shower? Weird Dark Sugar Trash Magic, that’s what. Ryan and Chloe have lots to say about this episode.
Something is in the attic at the Coopers… or someone. While the Sharks and the Jets – whoops, the Blossoms and the Coopers – search for Polly, Cheryl and Betty form an unlikely alliance. Ryan and Chloe reflect on the ways in which this episode is really, really, really (that’s three reallys) sad.
The Pussycats are in fact killing it in this episode, with Archie trailing behind as a stage-fright inflicted puppy dog. Ryan notes the maturity with which some parents in the show communicate about their dating life, and Chloë celebrates the arrival of Bughead.
Cheryl Blossom takes sweet sweet well-dressed revenge on her uptight parents at Jason’s funeral, while Archie receives some of the silliest advice our two hosts have ever heard from a potential songwriting mentor. Nana Rose drops a plot bomb on Betty. Ryan and Chloe are having a blast with this season one re-watch-along.
Jughead waltzes into our hearts as he tries desperately to save the drive-in. Meanwhile, Betty finds herself a prop in Miss Grundy’s glove compartment that will lay low until season two. Your hosts Ryan and Chloë dig in hard.
The plot begins to thicken in the way we all have come to love about Riverdale, with Cheryl revealing to Sherriff Kellar that she helped Jason fake his death so that he could run away. Ryan and Chloe also take note that this is the first episode with social themes: slut shaming and sexual assault. […]
Archie’s life becomes a bit of a mess this week, with Betty and Veronica feeling off about a kiss, and Miss Grundy in high abuser mode. Ryan and Chloë have a blast poking back into SE01.
If Riverdale is the quintessential American heaven, then there’s trouble in paradise. Jason Blossom has drowned in Sweetwater River to the town’s shock and surprise, while Miss Grundy gives Archie much more than music lessons, and there’s a new girl in town who is destined to be Betty’s best friend. Ryan and Chloe revisit the […]
The Season Two finale is entitled ‘Brave New World’ – and Riverdale isn’t kidding. Opening at Jughead’s graveside, the show stops in its tracks and changes direction, leaving us hungry for Season Three. Ryan and Chloe are so here for this.
Poor Chloe simply cannot even with this episode’s ending, while Ryan looks on providing intellectual feedback. We were also happy to welcome Dr. Simon Pratt to the show, who helps us break down what a rioting Riverdale actually means. Features Cheryl’s hunting cape and Alice Cooper’s sass.
Plot is coming at you fast in this week’s pre-penultimate Riverdale! We recruited special guest host Amanda Konkin from Quiver: The Green Arrow Podcast to step into our favorite sleepy midwestern town completely unspoiled without having see a SINGLE episode! If you’ve gotten behind or forgotten what’s happening, get caught up alongside Amanda in this […]
Wow, what an episode! This week, it’s plot plot plot – as in, all the plot we’ve been waiting for all season. Ryan and Chloë get into all the loose threads Riverdale suddenly seems bent on tying up, including what we think is the beginning of a very fine Black Hood reveal. Features River Vixen […]
Dearest Gang: we’re here. It’s the Carrie: The Musical episode long promised us by the Riverdale producers. Fairlith Harvey is back this week joining Ryan and Chloë on what is a truly bizarre ride, including a reappearance (maybe? we’re not sure) of the Black Hood.
Yet another hiatus week! This time around, Ryan and Chloe are back in the same city and are ready to dig into the strange humour of 1964 via the unused pilot of ‘Archie’, the pre-Riverdale Riverdale. Watch along with this week’s “Vintage Riverdale” here: https://youtu.be/AA9gesm2bBo
Riverdale goes dark so we got silly! Returning guests Fairlith and Andrew join Ryan to crack a few beers and laugh our way through one of the most intense episodes this season. Plot arcs get violent, and the conversion therapy plot (content warning!) is solidly resolved. Our falafel delivery arrives at an inconvenient time. All […]
What do you get when you combine twelve burgers, five girls brushing hair, and two intrafamilial murder plots? Just another day in Riverdale, that’s what! Ryan takes a hiatus while Chloe co-hosts with theatre creator Fairlith Harvey on another wild ride. Note: Technical issues lead to greater than usual background noise in the later half […]
The plot heats up with every one of our intrepid heroes floundering, confused, but determined to act in this week’s Riverdale. The looming spectre of the Lodge plot is finally revealed! Plus another amazing Blossom family public meltdown. Today’s episode included a discussion of the American for-profit prison industry and ethical issues within this system. […]
Happy end-of-hiatus! This week, Ryan and Chloe are joined by their pal Andrew Lynch, actor and geek extraordinaire, as Archie, Veronica, Jughead, and Betty head off to a cabin in the woods. Yes, that’s right, four teenagers in a cabin for a weekend – what could go wrong? Also, we get one of the plot […]
We’re on hiatus! Ryan and Chloë discuss where each character is and where their going, as well as some of the mighty fine technical aspects of this show – plus a little commentary on the garbage state of the world.
Jumping into a two-week hiatus, Riverdale delivers for us an escalating and intimate tension this week. Remember how all of our favourite sexy teens are actually still children, in deep with horrifying real-world problems, the depth and consequence of which they are just beginning to grasp? Yeah, so does this week’s episode.
A crime drama, and too many gangs! Archie gets himself in even deeper, Jughead faces consequences, Betty pulls her black wig out of storage, and Veronica copes with guilt as our plot moves steadily, strongly forward (and who expected THAT?!) Special guest Laura Fukumoto takes over for Chloe for this week’s fashion-forward episode of The […]
This week, Ryan and Chloe are joined by guest Erin-Brooke Kirsh, poet and activist, to discuss the usual Riverdale topics of colonialism, white privilege, and historiography. What, wait?
Midseason Premiere! Riverdale is back with fresh new genre. Long lost children, cults, federal investigators, convoluted crime plots – and maybe, just maybe, wildly progressive sex positivity? MAYBE!
Welcome back gang! Join Ryan and Chloe gearing up for the back-half (two thirds?) of this year’s Riverdale with spoilers, scuttlebutt, comics, and a wishlist for our favorite Gang!
Holiday episode! Sort of? Well as much of one as we are getting. Gather round to mark the season with another creepy Nana Blossom exposition ex machina, apparently our new seasonal tradition! Plus, a bunch of plots resolve, because even a mid-season finale needs SOME resolution?
We are back to our usual aesthetic after last week’s filmic adventure and everyone is miserable. Join us as the gang disintegrates and all romance dies to the tune of dulcet karaoke!
Welcome to our favorite episode yet Gang! No seriously though. This is the best. Three amazing, striking, distinct stories told in a fresh new framing that overtakes our beloved pretentious Jughead voiceover and places us all in the new, creepy, striking arthouse film that is now Riverdale. Seriously, THE BEST. And not JUST because of […]
Chloe and Ryan walk through the plot so far for each of the four main characters, plus favs Cheryl and Kevin. Predictions and speculation, analysis and critique of each major plot line, join us for a refresher on the season’s first arc!
Riverdale is in a right proper crisis this week! Betty escalates her game of Saw while Jughead deals with the consequences of everyone else’s actions, and the Tarantino reference begun at the end of last episode comes full circle with a DRAG RACE! It’s the 1950s again in Riverdale, but not so safe and wholesome […]
Things are picking up this week, Gang, as the Riverdale Class War escalates even further, and all of our favs do drugs! (except Betty and her iconic ponytail)
Hey there, Riverdale Militia! That’s what we’re doing this week, upgrading from Gang to Militia, so say Archie! Meanwhile, Betty not only gets Plot, Betty is ALL the Plot (except for Veronica, for whom Plot is a verb)
This week we celebrate Kevin’s first proper B-plot (feat. Betty’s Moral Conviction and Cheryl Stormcrow, Bringer of Drama and Light), which eclipses just about everything else for us, especially Archie’s bad life choices.
Welcome back, Gang! Speaking of gangs, this week we delve into the hot mess coping mechanisms of both Jughead Jones and Archie Andrews, in addition to a much less gang-like Cooper crusade and our first Pussycats cover of the season! Settle in y’all.
Welcome to a new season with a new set of hosts! Playing catchup, Ryan and Chloe race through the first few episodes on a Riverdale binge of snark, queer commentary, local Vancouver flavouring, and gushing affection/biting critique of our favorite sugar/trash television adventure.
