Five(ish) Fangirls Episode #522: An Oblique Allusion

This episode dives into Innuendo, one of the most powerful and emotionally complex albums in Queen’s legendary catalog. We talk about the album’s themes of defiance, reflection, and perseverance, its blend of classic Queen bombast with surprising experimentation, and the context of where the band—and Freddie Mercury—were at the time. From epic title tracks to deeply personal moments, Innuendo stands as a bold, moving statement at the end of an era. Plus some fandom news and your feedback!

Five(ish) Fangirls Episode #517: Welcome To The Party Pal!

We’re closing out 2025 the only way that makes sense: with explosions, one-liners, and a whole lot of holiday chaos. For our final episode of the year, we’re revisiting the action classic Die Hard and breaking down what makes it such an enduring favorite. From John McClane’s reluctant heroism to unforgettable villains, iconic moments, and the eternal “is it a Christmas movie?” debate, we’re going out with a bang—yippee-ki-yay and all.
