YHBG ~ Any Way The Wind Blows

Our three year anniversary is coming up and we want to celebrate it with a return to AoT for an "Ask Me Anything" episode.  News, drama, the "real" ending, interviews, anime, MAPPA, appallingly low wages, merch, and so much more... there's no end to things to talk about when it comes to AoT and we'd love to talk about it. We'll be recording in mid-August so there's plenty of time to send us your questions or topics you'd like us to consider. You can do that on tumblr, twitter or via our website youhearbiggirls.com.   Thanks as always for listening!

YHBG ~ Choujin X Chapter 2 Readthrough

It's a return to SnK as the Big Girls discuss their reaction to the final pages, and the sometimes extreme reaction of the fandom. 

YHBG 139 Final Pages Podcast

While awaiting next months Attack on Titan final chapter additions, the Big Girl's decide to read Choujin X, the latest work from Sui Ishida (Tokyo Ghoul).

YHBG ~ SnK Update and ChoujinX Chapter 1

For our final chapter podcast, the Big Girls recorded with a live audience. Special guests include Linkspooky, Puppet, Polkka and Underscore.

YHBG ~ Attack on Titan Chapter 139 Podcast Livestream

Welcome to the chapter 138 discussion. Our first guest this month representing eremika nation is Alooulla from the Shingeki no Kyojin subreddit. We also welcomed back "Eren optimist" Safflora  for this penultimate discussion. I think the biggest surprise this month (besides the discovery that Safflora might be a closeted EH shipper ?) is that with 45 pages remaining we are still left with far more questions than answers. Or rather, this chapter felt like an answer, but it was one without any explanations, leaving room for so much speculation. Our discussion this month reflects that.

YHBG ~ Attack on Titan Chapter 138

Welcome to the chapter 137 discussion! Joining us was Andrew Allstars who is known for two things - his livestream reactions to the manga and anime, and his undying love of Zeke Jaeger. We were also happy to have our friend Underscore. Luna and I hope you enjoy the conversation as much as we did. One a personal note, it was great having Luna back after a two month absence.
