Mackenzie and Aislinn discuss the short backgrounds of the Cullens and the lack of character Esme was given. They also talk about sex baby and how Edward is a 100 year old virgin. And they also discuss Bella's "human" moments around vampires. 

Mackenzie and Aislinn continue with Twilight about the meadow scene, Mackenzie's strange obsession with the "Be Safe" note, the various lion references, and the relationship between classic dating with and without sex as a variable. 

**TW: SA 19:11-20:20 and 21:52-27:02
In this episode, Aislinn and Mackenzie discuss Bella's visit to Port Angeles and the inciting incident of the plot that puts the entire story into motion. They do discuss how Bella avoided a sexual assault, so if that is a trigger, please skip over the 16:00 - 23:00 mark. Some deeper level discussions occur about sex and relationships, listener be advised. 

Aislinn and Mackenzie interrupt their usual broadcast about Twilight to talk about the history of traditional vampires, but then they end up talking about Twilight again... They also get into the details of Vampire Diaries and Vampire Academy and the discussion of when vampires went from scary to sexy. 

**Spoiler Alert for Midnight Mass**

Aislinn and Mackenzie get into the beginning dynamics of Team Jacob vs Team Edward. Lots of conversation goes into the "new girl" at school and also a very uncomfortable conversation about why Jacob had to be 15 in the book.

Aislinn and Mackenzie discuss the kindling of Edward and Bella's relationship in Twilight. They may or may not spend 15 minutes dragging a particular author that is not Stephanie Meyer. 

Aislinn and Mackenzie talk about Bella's questionable upbringing and her relationship with her parents and the desert. They discuss how Stephanie Meyer used Bella as a self insert for her story and the happenings of chapter 1 of Twilight. Not to mention the bewilderment of Carlisle matchmaking foster children????  

Mackenzie and Aislinn delve into the cultural impact Twilight had on the world and on their individual lives. The complexities of early Youtube, texting questions to KGB, and the Emo culture all had a significant role in the spread of Twilight. 

Get to know Mackenzie and Aislinn and why they wanted to start this podcast. They'll discuss what they read and what inspired them to get started.
