Join us, Isaac and Chloe, as we revisit a teenage obsession: The Twilight Saga. Together we explore key moments from each book and film, wondering how this story affected our approach to relationships, sex, and identity... If we had our time again, would this be our saga of choice?
It’s the final episode of Season 2! Hurrah! As we look over the Afterward of Life and Death, and say a fond farewell to you lovely listeners, we come to the realisation that Beau has never has, and perhaps never will, be pegged. Sad.

We deal with a few small sound issues, and several large plot issues, as we unpick the final section of Life and Death; the Epilogue: An Occasion. You can find What The Forks? on Twitter and Instagram at @ForksCast.
Honestly, not our most positive episode, as we discuss the longest chapter ever written: 24. Change. But we do get some questions answered... s'pose that's good. You can find What The Forks? on Twitter and Instagram at @ForksCast.
Do you have a celebrity doppelgänger? In our not-quite shortest episode ever, Chloe reveals what she and Kristen Stewart used to have in common. We also discuss the not-so different, not-so quirky Chapter 23: The Choice. You can find What The Forks? on Twitter and Instagram at @ForksCast.
