Mortified! The Friendship Quest
Every Monday, hosts Aaron and Leyla bounce a media recommendation to one another in order to bolster - or in some cases, really, really test - their long-distance friendship. Join us for a discussion on anything from our favorite Terrible Boys to the profitability of grown men dressing up as Bulbasaur and loudly shouting their own names.

This week, Leyla and I read the upcoming military fantasy novel by RF Kuang, "The Burning God!" We give a spoiler-free review of our thoughts on the end of our favorite trilogies, discuss Kuang's speech at the 2020 Hugo Awards, and cry over our poor, sweet children. Many thanks to Pamela Jaffee and the team at Harper Collins for making this happen!
