Sweeney: A little part of me still feels like every episode of this podcast is A Very Special Episode because we are still in this very fun figuring-stuff-out part of the project and I cannot express enough how thoroughly I am enjoying this.
So, if you’ll forgive me for saying so, on today’s VERY SPECIAL EPISODE of Snark Squad Pod we are trying out some new things. First of all, you’ll notice that rather than a specific piece of media, this week we’re tackling a whole entire trope. We’re covering some highs and lows of chosen one stories AND as an added bonus we’ve called in a friend to help us do it.
In addition to being a friend a great human, Ceri Riley is a writer and editor for SciShow and Crash Course Film and an editorial assistant for Monstress. She also shares fun comics and doodles and other great things on Twitter.
We hope you like this fun little experiment. I know I enjoyed it and would love to try more things like this in the future.
As always, thank you to Stefan Chin for our delightful theme music.
Let us know in the comments below or on Twitter what you thought of today’s episode and what you’d like us to talk about in the future.
For those of you trying to follow along, some upcoming media we’ve planned so far (in the order they’ll be released): Midnight Texas, Bonfire by Krysten Ritter, After Dark, Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, Madeleine L’Engle’s A Wrinkle In Time, and Marvel’s Runaways.

Next time on Snark Squad Pod: Krysten Ritter wrote a book so we are reading it in Episode 005 – Bonfire.
Nicole is the co-captain of Snark Squad and these days she spends most of her time editing podcasts. She spends too much time on Twitter and very occasionally vlogs and blogs. In her day job she's a producer, editor, director, and sometimes host of educational YouTube channels. She loves travel, maps, panda gifs, and semicolons. Writing biographies stresses her out; she crowd sourced this one years ago and has been using a version of it ever since. She would like to thank Twitter for their help.
