This fortnight, we're talking about the second episode of Season Two and everything that comes along with it. For us, that means plugging our new TikTok account(which Susannah is not happy about) a billion times, mispronouncing some guy's name(he was Lieutenant Courtenay, as well as being featured in two separate movies with Rupert Grint, neither of which was Harry Potter), and continuously genuinely confusing Richard Carlisle with Rupert Murdoch. There's a very thorough deep dive on Toad of Toad Hall that Susannah did back in July, and Susannah accidentally maybe spoils something for Hazel, which leads to two back-to-back fill-for-times.

It's Season Two! Susannah's obviously ecstatic, and Hazel's pretty excited too! We're kicking things off with a few long ramblings from Susannah wherein she talks about U2, her favorite Belgian girl's choir, and tells you if "hot buttered toast with a countess, tuppence a slice" would actually be profitable. Then we scream "MARTHEW" a few thousand times, hence that cold open. And, some current events throw more wrenches in the works than Cora's pregnancy last season. All this and more, on Substitute for Wit, hosted by Hazel, and Susannah, who's sounding like a television promo!

We're closing out Season One with a bang, however brief. In this episode, you'll get to hear us: fangirl over both Adam Scott and Barack Obama; silently imitate Trump; and argue over who looked hot in that fight scene. We look up Italian names for various legumes, Susannah smiles uncontrollably just from thinking about Season Two, and Hazel answers her phone.
