Welcome, Welcome, Welcome

to the Fantasy Fangirls Podcast!

Two sisters, Nicole and Lexi, dive deep into your favorite fantasy books – talking about lore, characters, insights, and theories of beloved stories.

Every episode, these two sisters cover several chapters of a book with a uniquely fun summary, then discuss insights, character analysis, foreshadowing and theories, before wrapping up with an in-depth explanation of a world-building topic. Plus, there’s lots of laughs, jokes, pop culture references, and sisterly banter along the way!

Core Values of Fantasy Fangirls

  • We believe that fantasy is for ALL, and this community is safe to celebrate our love for these characters and worlds. This means that we will never allow bullying, theory shaming, or anyone to feel belittled by their perspective of stories.

  • We embrace the idea that spicy books, and the desires that arise with them, are not only valid but worth celebrating. Our commitment is to celebrate the full human experience between two consenting adults or solo adventures in an environment that encourages people to feel like themselves. This is a safe space to embrace that side of you, no matter your sexual orientation, gender, body size, sexual preferences, etc.

  • In addition to our deep dives, we are here to help and lift up others in this oh so special book community. From small authors, businesses, artists, and beyond, we believe in using our platform to support others and bring awareness to their work.

  • Whether we’re discussing a spicy scene or a wild crack theory, at our core, we are always celebrating our love for these stories and how much joy they bring us.
