As a last hurrah, I hope you enjoy this Patreon special from August 2020, in which I ramble about my favourite BL shows. You can find a continually updated recs list here.

Thanks for sailing with me, my dear sailors! Please stay safe, stay healthy, let fandom help you stay sane - and remember: You are the captain of your ship.

A multifandom podcast for the shipper in you. Happy new year! I'm getting into it more at the end of the episode, but this will be the last interview, at least for the foreseeable future. So it’s great that  we’re wrapping with a fun chat with the lovely Savannah about Spot and Race from the musical Newsies. Thanks for sticking with me, sailors!

A multi-fandom podcast for the shipper in you. This episode brings  out the Lord of the Rings nerd in me and I had a wonderful time waxing  rhapsodic with Shania not only about Arwen and Aragorn’s literally epic  love story but also many other things we love about Tolkien’s enchanted  world.

A couple of days late, but here I am with another offering from the MCU – in another lengthy episode Gen and I talk about yet another Steve ship, because Steve apparently goes with everyone. ;) This one’s special, though, having the distinct honour of a) being canon and b) containing the amazing and wonderful Peggy Carter.   Show notes on shippingcast.fandomish.net

Back from my summer hiatus, this is a whopper of an episode - not just a crash course in the D&D podcast Critical Role and its canon femslash couple but also a fun conversation about everything from fandom to cosplay to queerness. Show notes on shippingcast.fandomish.net

Just checking in from my summer hiatus, which will last a bit longer than originally planned.

Who would have thought there’s so much to talk about a ship originating in an 19th century novel… But Perlog Annwyl and I sure have a lot to talk about, making this a nice long episode for you to dig your teeth into before my summer break. Show notes on shippingcast.fandomish.net.

Sometimes we latch onto ships that might at first glance seem far-fetched, just because we feel that these two characters would somehow click and make a good couple. That’s what happened to Rachel with Winn and Brainy - and when they finally met in Supergirl canon, it turned out the chemistry was undeniable. :) Show notes on shippingcast.fandomish.net

A multi-fandom podcast for the shipper in you. In many places, restrictions are being lifted, but we’re all still a long way from normal. So maybe you won’t mind that this week’s episode turned out a bit longer and ramblier than normal, because as it turns out, Derek pretty much discovered fandom while preparing to talk about the canon ship of Edward Elric and Winry Rockbell from Full Metal Alchemist. We had a blast chatting not ju...

I hope this episode finds you healthy and safe, wherever you are, whatever restrictions you might be living under. If you’re anything like me, you’ll have found refuge in fandom. Personally, I also find the structures and guaranteed outcomes of mystery shows soothing, so today’s episode is pretty perfect, as Athena​ and I visit the crime procedural Bones, which ran from 2005 to 2017, and its ultimate ‘opposites attract’ ship.

In turbulent times like these, fandom can prove a wonderful distraction and escape. Therefore I’m releasing my three Patreon specials for all my listeners in between the regular scheduled episodes. This is the third and last one - a round table chat with previous interview partners Mia, Nich, Kimmy and Phoe about the special hell - or special pleasure? - of rare pair shipping. Enjoy!

A multi-fandom podcast for the shipper in you. Reylo is the biggest ship to come out of the new Star Wars trilogy, and Ray explains with great passion why she fell in love with this ultimate enemies-to-lovers pairing. (We also talk a bit about our quarantine experiences - if that's not your thing, skip about 13 minutes after the intro.) Show notes on shippingcast.fandomish.net

These are trying times. I very much hope listening how Mazikeen  introduces me to Pagan Min and Ishwari Ghale, our first video game ship  from Far Cry 4, will provide you with distraction and entertainment -  that’s what fandom’s for, isn’t it? Show notes can be found on shippingcast.fandomish.net

In turbulent times like these, fandom can prove a wonderful distraction and escape. Therefore I’m releasing my three Patreon specials for all my listeners in between the regular scheduled episodes. Today it's all about the awesome steampunk concept band Steam Powered Giraffe. They consist of a bunch of steam-powered robots (yes really!), and maya-zulf introduces me to their wide-ranging lore and funky music with great enthusiasm. I...

Brienne and Tormund were never one of the big ships in the Game of Thrones fandom, but teamreylo was attracted to them right away. She makes a very good case as to why they could have made a great couple. Show notes as always on shippingcast.fandomish.net

In this episode Elena and I talk about the HBO mini-series Chernobyl, which covered the 1986 nuclear plant disaster and its aftermath. Valery and Boris aka Valoris start out in a wary, almost antagonistic partnership and end up firm allies. No wonder Elena ships them! Show notes can be found on shippingcast.fandomish.net
