Gaynor and Emma discuss the first half of Book 1 of the Warrior series, Into the Wild. Topics include the morality of the Clan system, the deeply anxious life of Ravenpaw, how nobody has done anything about all these feral cats, and the possible origins of Warriors mythology. 

Gaynor and Emma discuss the second half of Into the Wild, Book 1 of the Warriors series. Topics include Tigerclaw's cycle of abuse, the undeniable power of himbo king Barley, toxic masculinity within the Clans, and vibing in cat church.

Gaynor and Emma dive into Book 2 of the Warriors series, Fire and Ice. Topics include inappropriate promotions within Thunderclan, homoeroticism between Clan cats, the many strange aspects of Graystripe/Silverstream, and the question of whether Spottedleaf is a "manic pixie dream girl". 

Gaynor and Emma talk through the second half of Book 2 of the Warriors series, Fire and Ice. Topics include the right and wrong ways of breaking the Warrior code, the otherizing of kittypets, the evolution of Sandstorm, and the many faces of Fireheart's empty head.

In their first mini episode, Gaynor and Emma take the official warriorcats.com "Which Clan Do You Belong To?" quiz. Topics include the healing nature of commiseration, an honest discussion on honesty, and the ever-present siren song of the majestic whale. 

Gaynor and Emma navigate the first half of Book 3 of the Warriors series, Forest of Secrets. Topics include the significance of upbringing in relationships to the Warrior code, the drama and harm of Oakheart x Bluestar, and the importance of passion in leadership and....intimacy.

Gaynor and Emma descend into the wave of anxiety that is the first half of Book 4 of the Warriors series, Rising Storm.
