This week, beloved friend and podcast hype squad member Angel arrives on the podcast to talk about watching Pretty Little Liars in the year 2021, questionable media tastes, and [checks notes] an anime-inspired web series with a catgirl? Well, that can't be right. Listen to this episode to learn how things unraveled so quickly. Note: In this episode, we mistakenly stated that there are eight seasons of Pretty Little Liars. There are only seven. That's still too many. Content warning: There is a non-graphic discussion of teeth-related horror with regards to events that happened on the Pretty Little Liars TV show from 47:48-49:41. This episode also discusses relationships between minors and adults within a larger conversation of Pretty Little Liars' flaws.
