The Five(ish) Fangirls Podcast #22 - The Flash and Green Arrow Walk Into a Bar...

(I remembered this time!!)

This week, we Five(ish) Fangirls give our thoughts on #Flarrow - that is, the crossover of The Flash and Arrow. How did the CW's favorite superheroes from Central City and Starling City mesh in their continued fight against injustice? Is Diggle still in shock at meeting Barry Allen and his super-speed? Is Cisco really done hitting on Thea Queen? (yeah, probably) All this and more in this week's episode!

The Five(ish) Fangirls Podcast Episode #20 - The Promise of a Soldier

This week, we hit the milestone of 20 episodes! ~*~confetti~*~ And with the conclusion of Doctor Who Series 8, there's no better time to discuss the two-part finale, "Dark Water" and "Death in Heaven" as well as Series 8 as a whole. How did the return of [spoiler redacted] hold up and did Peter Capaldi's first full season live up to expectations? Join us as we recap and discuss everything that we can think of (if we haven't died of feels first).

The Five(ish) Fangirls Episode #17 - Storybrooke Goes Frozen

(I've neglected to put these up here the past few weeks - I'll fix that later).

Continuing our celebration of Fall Premiere Season, the Five(ish) Fangirls tackle the Season 4 premiere of Once Upon a Time "A Tale of Two Sisters" - which introduced Frozen to the show as well as a slew of other plot threads and storylines this season promises to weave into its already-intricate plot. Laughter and smiles and fun abounds, as well as some well-placed tears - but not necessarily from who you think.

Also, news of the week - Doctor Who Big Finish fans say goodbye to a beloved companion, we welcome back an old online favorite, a familiar face from the Marvel Cinematic Universe joins Agent Carter on the small screen, and a hometown Comic Con asks for fan input!

The Five(ish) Fangirls Episode #12 - Am I A Good Man?

This week's episode features - THE RETURN OF DOCTOR WHO!! WHOO! ~*~confetti~*~ We Fangirls discuss everything Twelfth Doctor, Clara Oswald, the Paternoster Gang, Clockwork Droids, and that special cameo appearance that some of us knew was coming, but it still punched us in the gut.

Also, casting news for Agents of SHIELD and Outlander, rumors of a Full House revival, Emmy Award news, plus a Salt Lake Comic Con that has Utah Whovians over the moon!

The Five(ish) Fangirls Episode 11 - Oh Captain, My Captain!

A bit of a somber episode this week as news of the passing of legendary comedian and actor Robin Williams took us all by surprise. We Fangirls all have fond memories of his movies that made up most of our childhoods, so we take this opportunity to look back on our "Top Ten" Favorite Robin Williams performances and pay tribute to the man who made us all laugh and cry and inspired us to Seize the Day!

Also, news and feedback - casting news from Marvel's Agents of SHIELD, a new "Deep Breath" trailer from Doctor Who Series 8 (and the BBC still has episode security problems), The Story of Frozen comes to ABC, Outlander is renewed for a second season on Starz.

The Five(ish) Fangirls - Episode #10: Tangents in the Vortex

It's the Day of the Five(ish) Fangirls! That's right, we've reached our Tenthennial Epiversary Extravanganza! (which is just a bunch of made-up words to say that this is our tenth episode and we're super excited!) This week, we discuss the franchise that brought the five of us together - that's right, we're talking All Things Doctor Who, which is serendipitous since Series 8 is fast approaching. We also talk about the Doctor Who Worldwide Tour, which is currently underway. Plus - it wouldn't be an Epiversary without a few special guests joining the fun!

Also, news of the week - Arrow casting news, Frozen sequel news (sort of), plus a few 10:00 evening news items that do have a silver lining (well, one of them does).

Thank you to all our wonderful listeners! We couldn't have done it without you! Here's to ten episodes, with many many more to come!

The Five(ish) Fangirls Podcast Episode #9 - Excelsior!

This week, we're enjoying the view from Stark Tower as we talk all things Marvel Cinematic Universe - how we came to it, how we think it's doing, where we think it's going to go. We also have news to report (though not near as much as we have in recent weeks) - two new trailers from Mockingjay and The Hobbit, more casting news from Once Upon a Time (including the casting of an acting legend!), and (sadly) a little bit of proof that geeks just sometimes cannot play nice with each other (though we give mad props to Salt Lake Comic Con for their handling of the publicity of the situation).

Also, we have my report from ToshoCON this past weekend, Rachel's non-spoilery review of Guardians of the Galaxy, and Michelle's participation in GISHWHES (that's The Greatest International Scavenger Hunt The World Has Ever Seen - they had to translate it for me, too).

The Five(ish) Fangirls Podcast: Episode 8 - It's Fandom Christmas!

It's Fandom Christmas and we have been very good fangirls this year! San Diego Comic Con treated everyone to casting announcements, trailers, sneak peeks, panels and interviews with our favorite casts and creators, release dates, and Robert Downey, Jr. giving everyone roses! (well, in Hall H, anyway). Though your humble correspondents watched the action from the comfort of our computer screens (and sometimes from the floor when we squee so much we fall out of our chairs - okay, maybe that was just me), there's still plenty to enjoy!

Also - news not out of SDCC, plus a way to support the Five(ish) Fangirls and help us get on iTunes!

The Five(ish) Fangirls Podcast - Episode 7: Dumbledore's Army

This week on the Five(ish) Fangirls Podcast, We Solemnly Swear We Are Up to No Good! This week, we're all about Harry Potter. We discuss how we each came to Potter, our experiences in fandom, discussion of various characters and storylines, how the world of Potter has stayed with us since the publication of the final book and movies - which also delves in the phenomenon of Pottermore (and we divulge our Pottermore usernames, so come find us!)

Also, discussion of the week's news including Marvel Comics announcements, Doctor Who Series 8 trailer, music video for Sailor Moon Crystal, ABC announces their fall premiere dates - and more!

The Five(ish) Fangirls, Episode 6 - Fandom News Flash!

News dominates our discussion as San Diego Comic Con news came in hot-and-fast all this past week. Plus, casting news, trailers, a new Harry Potter short story (seven years after the end of Deathly Hallows - holy cow), and the possibility of the return of a certain internet cartoon that's been missing from our computer screens for quite some time.

As always, complete show notes and MP3 download of the podcast can be found here. Enjoy!

The Five(ish) Fangirls Podcast, Episode 5 - Spoilers!

The Five(ish) Fangirls Podcast - Episode 4: Badges? Badges? We Don't Need No Stinkin' Badges!

This week we're all about Convention Shenanigans! What conventions have we attended? What amazing (and not-so-amazing) things have we seen? Who have we met at these events? (and have we ever embarrassed ourselves in front of celebrities? …guilty…) What advice do we have for con newbies? We're not experts by any means, but we still have plenty to discuss and squee about!

Also, a bumper crop of Doctor Who news, plus your feedback! Enjoy!

The Five(ish) Fangirls Podcast, Episode 3 - Don't Feed the Trolls

Episode 3 of the Five(ish) Fangirls is out! We battle issues ranging from scheduling to spotty Internet connections to bring a discussion of the current state of fandom - namely When Fans Go Bad.

It's one thing to disagree on what we like and dislike in fandom, but what happens when those disagreements turn nasty? And what about when fans drag creators of our favorite media into the Ship and Flame Wars? Can't we all just get along? Can fandom ever have nice things?

Also - news of the week and your feedback!
