  • Animorphs Part 5: The Weekend is Cancelled
    Mar 11 2025

    This week on Cracked Spines, we are discussing Animorphs books 23 through 27, a chunk that includes one of the best books of the series so far and also Cassie lying to strangers about androids while inside a Spencer's Gifts. The series contains multitude and, as we get into this middle stretch, filler. Join us as we watch young teens grapple with intergalactic war, cross-species dating, and the Space Devil.

  • Witchcraft for Wayward Girls by Grady Hendrix
    Feb 25 2025

    Our favorite horror writer is back at it again! This week we read Witchcraft for Wayward Girls by Grady Hendrix, a truly harrowing mixture of pregnancy horror, social horror, and eels. In this episode, as you can probably imagine, we talk a lot about abortion rights, fucked up pregnancy stuff, and infanticide. Like honestly probably way too much discussion of infanticide, oopsie, sorry about that. Proceed with caution accordingly.

    More pregnancy/motherhood/baby horror recs:

    • Nestlings by Nat Cassidy
    • Immaculate (2024)
    • The First Omen (2024)
    • Huesera: The Bone Woman (2022) (Note from Cyrus: I forgot to mention this one on the episode but IT'S SO GOOD PLEASE WATCH IT. One of the rare movies that actually made me scream aloud)

    And lastly, if you want to read/listen to Cyrus's story mentioned at the end of this episode, it's not about pregnancy but it is very much horror: Hemorrhage on Pseudopod.org (not .com as we say on the podcast, I'm a fool)

  • Sarah's Bummer of an Extended Vacation: The 2025 Oregon Healthcare Strike
    Feb 19 2025

    Hey, everyone! Sarah is one of the thousands of unionized healthcare workers on strike in Oregon. At their last job, Cyrus saw how hard a company will work to destroy a union. Let's do some labor chatting.

    This is a different episode than usual. We've been thinking about doing some extra episodes on our off weeks about stuff, and this episode? Well, I'm not sure it's the best example of our ideas for what the interstitial episodes will look like, but by god it's sure not about books.

    Click here to donate to the strike fund. You can also click here to go to our patreon, where we'll be donating a third of our income from that to the strike fund for the duration of the strike.
