Get ready to cry, laugh, and question every single emotion you’ve ever had—because this week, we’re diving into The Fault in Our Stars. From John Green’s beautifully devastating novel to the 2014 film adaptation that wrecked us in theaters (thanks a lot, Ansel Elgort and Shailene Woodley), we’re unpacking the love story that taught us about infinity... and emotional damage.
We’ll talk about Hazel Grace and Augustus Waters—two teens with terminal illness and terminal charm—and how their whip-smart banter and painfully honest romance made this story a YA classic. Expect deep dives into our favorite (and most soul-crushing) scenes, comparisons between book and film, and some lovingly sarcastic commentary on metaphors, Amsterdam, and gas station breakdowns.
So grab your tissues, brace your heart, and join us for an episode that will leave you saying “Okay” with a lump in your throat and mascara on your sleeve. 🎧🌠💬
(Spoiler alert: it's a good life, Hazel Grace.)
