Revisiting...

11 episodes - English - Latest episode: over 2 years ago - ★★★★★ - 1 rating

Think back on your tweenage and teenage years. What were you interested in? What were you talking to your friends about?

We are Matt and Syd, and we're serial fandom-goers. All throughout our lives, we've been a part of fandoms both big and small—but some of those fandoms have been abandoned for years.

Join us as we revisit some of our past fandoms and interests. Books, anime, television shows, and beyond, nothing is off-limits. We turn our older, more mature eyes back on this media and try to be as critical as we can while also having fun.

This podcast is split into two major parts. Part one is a discussion segment, where we talk about anything of note: our fandom experience, fandom- or creator-related news, or anything just fandom-related like revisiting popular memes, quizzes, and more.

Part two is our revisiting segment, where we discuss whatever it is we've revisited for the week. Usually this is whatever we've read, watched, or listened to.

Currently Revisiting: The Twilight Saga.

Everything Happens So Much

November 20, 2021 13:00 - 1 hour - 56 MB

Twilight: Chapter 15There’s some serious breaking news this week: Kristen Stewart doesn’t consider any of the Twilight films as in the top 5 best movies she’s ever made. Then we can’t put it off any longer: it’s time for another slog of a chapter. The good news is, we finally meet the Cullens! The bad news is, they’re literally only in four pages of the chapter, because who cares about anyone that’s not Bella or Edward, amiright?

Bella is Jesus

November 13, 2021 13:00 - 1 hour - 48.4 MB

Twilight: Chapter 14It’s a Twilight reunion! This week, part one could only be dedicated to one piece of news: the reunion of Kellan Lutz and Ashley Greene in the parody video “Emo’s Not Dead” by Matt Cutshall on Instagram. We also reflect on some of the others who have paid homage to the iconic baseball scene recently. Then it’s time to dive into this week’s chapter, which isn’t a long chapter, but woof, did Steph pack it in. We really pick apart this one, especially the completely wild impl...

Virginity Rocks

November 05, 2021 13:00 - 58 minutes - 42.1 MB

Twilight: Chapter 13Oh, yes; it's time for us to talk about just how much of a virgin Edward is. But before that, we spend part one of the episode reviewing a Screen Rant article called "10 Times Bella and Edward Made Fans Cringe". We quickly realize that this article should ACTUALLY be titled, "10 Times Edward Was a Total Freak." We’re here. We made it. It’s time for the scene that started it all: the Meadow Scene! And we are a team divided on it: while Matt thought it was a pretty good chap...

Terminal Main Character Syndrome

October 22, 2021 13:00 - 1 hour - 62 MB

Twilight: Chapter 12Part one for this week consists of a mixed bag of topics: an update from Matt about its mom presents a new mystery for its history with Twilight. Then we talk way too long about how much we love What We Do In The Shadows and their recent homage to Twilight in Season 3, Episode 3: “Gail.” Then it’s time to take a trip to the past and revisit the final Twilight movie trailer after Syd reveals they got a Facebook memory about it from thirteen years ago. It’s time for another ...

Bedward

October 16, 2021 13:00 - 1 hour - 73 MB

Twilight: Chapter 10 and Chapter 11We’re off the rails today after Syd neglects to do the homework and summarizes both chapters off the cuff. But before that, we talk a little bit about a dice maker called Kraken Dice, their insidious history, and their limited edition Twilight-themed dice sets. (And then we promptly fix those dice designs when we decide they’re not quite right.) Then it’s on to this week’s reading, where we talk about Bella and Edward’s game of twenty questions, why they can...

Matt’s New Best Friend Steph

October 08, 2021 13:00 - 1 hour - 73 MB

Twilight: Chapter 8 and Chapter 9There’s a ton of stuff for us to talk about this episode! We recorded this on September 11th during Renesmee’s birthday and the weekend when the Forever Twilight in Fork Festival is happening. We talk about both things in great detail, as well as the impact of tourism on small towns and how we will probably never be invited as special guests to events like this. Then it’s time to dive into Chapters 8 and 9, and boy, are they jam-packed. For Chapter 8, we talk ...

The Cullens Are A Cult

October 01, 2021 13:00 - 1 hour - 58.7 MB

Twilight: Chapter 7Our first solo-episode chapter! We kick things off by reading some specially curated Twilight shitposts in our first segment and discussing how some of them have a better plot premise than the book itself. Then it’s on to discussing Chapter 7 and how it’s a whole lot of nothin’. We talk a little bit more about the importance of good stakes, reflect on some of our previous chapters, and talk through some ways to make what Stephenie Meyer is trying to do work. We also talk a ...

Yandere Bella

September 24, 2021 13:30 - 1 hour - 62.8 MB

Twilight: Chapter 5 and Chapter 6This episode is jam-packed! For our first segment, we get our first piece of real Twilight-related news and discuss the new mass market paperback covers and how horrible the graphic design is. We then read two of the worst chapters so far and discuss how Chapter 5 could have been cut from the book entirely and how Chapter 6 exists under a shadow of racism and colonialism. It’s bad all day, folks. We also come up with a few new conspiracy theories and introduce...

Stephenie Meyer Doesn’t Know How Cars Work

September 24, 2021 13:15 - 1 hour - 48.5 MB

Twilight: Chapter 3 and Chapter 4To kick things off this time around, we talk about the current state of the Twilight fandom, our experiences with it, and how it seems to have become the equivalent of an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting with everyone sharing the same few anecdotes over and over and over again.  We then dive into a divided discussion on these two chapters, ranging from a truly head-scratchin’ setup in the car crash scene to the comedy of errors that is the entirety of Chapter 4. T...

Revisiting the Twilight Saga

September 24, 2021 13:00 - 1 hour - 70.8 MB

Twilight: Preface, Chapter 1, and Chapter 2We are serial fandom-goers Syd and Matt, and for season 1 of Revisiting…, we dive in to revisit our tween/teen obsession: The Twilight Saga! In this debut episode, we talk about how this podcast came about, our past experiences with the series, and our expectations for this re-read. We then dive into the first three pieces of our reading. We talk way too long about a half-page preface, marvel over how bitchy Bella is, and put an open invitation out t...
