Cauldrons & Cabernet

Cauldrons & Cabernet

Two friends. One bottle. Endless fantasy chaos. Join Dan and Sarah, two Welsh book lovers with a soft spot for swoony heroes, magical worlds and a little too much red wine. From ’A Court of Thorns and Roses’ to morally grey men and unhinged plot twists, they’re spilling opinions, cackling over tropes and embracing the fantasy madness one episode at a time.

Pop a cork and grab your broomsticks! In this week's catch-up, the chaos is dialed to eleven.

We’re back for round two of Quicksilver, and this time we’ve brought our gorgeous friend Jess along for the ride! We’re diving into Chapters 14 through 19, though "diving" might be a stretch given how many tangents we hit along the way. Expect a chaotic mix of high-stakes fantasy and hilarious reality as Jess lets us into her spicy audiobook world, while Sarah manages to filter every single plot point through a Beauty and the Beast...

The most wonderful time of the year has arrived, and in true fashion, it’s a bit of a festive car crash! Grab a drink and join us for our Christmas Special, where the vibes are high and the inhibition is… well, ask Dan. ​This week on the pod: ​The Turkey Debate: Is it the king of the table or just a dry, overhyped bird? We’re deciding once and for all if the turkey stays or goes. ​Festive Traditions: From the heartwarming to the st...

We are tearing into the dark and deliciously twisty world of Callie Hart’s Quicksilver! In this first installment (Chapters 1–14), we cover the initial shock, the inevitable bad decisions, and the intense chemistry. ​As always, expect tons of tangents! We completely lose it when Dan finds the word "bobble" hilarious and just... repeats it. Then, we have to pause the dark romance because Sarah doesn't know what a gauntlet is (seriou...

We're slamming the book shut on A Court of Silver Flames! We track Nesta from the terrifying start of the Blood Rite right through to the explosive ending. Naturally, we get distracted: saving Sarah from a massive spider (heroic, honestly), listening to Dan forget how to speak (it was rough), and dealing with Poppy the Bichon being absolutely crazy! Tune in for the final chaos, the powerful moments, and our inevitable, ridiculous t...

We’re hitting A Court of Silver Flames! It starts innocent enough: Nesta taking dance classes with Mor. Queue the giggles, tangents, and us literally spilling the wine (it was a mess). But things go from sexy samba to straight-up snatching when Nesta gets kidnapped in her sleep! Grab a glass and join the chaos! 🔥

From Nesta pointing rudely at Tamlin (relatable) to her epic moment plucking the Harp with Cassian, we cover all the emotional damage, the major plot points, and the spicy details. ​Warning: This episode is fueled by wine and tangents! Prepare for a good giggle and lots of chaotic detours.

This week we descend into the Hewn City (and honestly, the trauma) as the torture of the Autumn Court guards sets the tone. From there, we spiral gloriously into politics, power, and that little bombshell — Rhys being asked to become High King. Along the way, we discover yet another of Sarah’s surprising talents, and Dan says more sex words than anyone really asked for. Chaos, cackles, and cabernet — just another day in A Court of ...

We’re back with Nesta as the Valkyrie training truly begins — Emerie’s proving herself, Gwyn’s shining, and we’re living for the sisterhood energy. But then comes that moment at the lake… Nesta rising like the absolute goddess she is, and we were screaming. Meanwhile, Sarah has no idea what a siren actually is (still), and Dan goes off on one of her signature Rhysand rants. It’s emotional, unhinged, and full of wine — basically, c...

This week, we’re diving back into A Court of Silver Flames, where Nesta’s finally finding her rhythm — helping Gwyn in the library, embracing the books, and (for once) not picking a fight. We loved watching her growth, and with Emerie joining the Valkyrie training, the girl gang energy is immaculate. Obviously, we couldn’t stay serious for long… Sarah nearly became a pilot (?!), and Dan once accidentally got a massage from someone...

This week we’re back in A Court of Silver Flames, ending with Cassian and Nesta’s fiery training sessions at the House of Wind. 💪✨

Whether you’re new here or a long-time fae fan, grab a glass and join the fun! 🪄

    Betrayal Season 5

    Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
