Author and Fan Fiction aficionado, Britta Lundin is here this week to discuss her newly released book, Like Other Girls, a YA novel about a group of girls who have joined the high school football team. Dave and Matt also ask Britta about why the WNBA is the best show on television, the world of X-Files fan fiction in the 90s, and how Kat from 10 Things I Hate About You is definitely queer. They also discuss writing for teenagers now, in both novels and Britta's work on Riverdale, along with what it's like to adopt a new baby during quarantine. Finally, listen to find out what characters they "ship" from huge fandoms, such as Edge and Bono!
