Blue blood, blue eyes, can't miss! Sandile and Fadzai make the rest of the world the problem with the prince of Beacon Hills, Jackson Whittemore.High school rival to Scott McCall in the early seasons of Teen Wolf, Jackson enjoys a level of popularity due to his role as an athlete, and becomes antagonistic when Scott starts to pull that spotlight away from him. His suspicion over Scott's strange new behaviour leads him into the world of werewolves and the supernatural, one he is desperate to access as a way to return to his glory status, though he gets far more than he bargained for.Content Warning: This episode contains discussion of child abuse, classism, emotional abuse, ephebophilia, fatphobia, grooming, homophobia, mental illness and related stigma, pedophilia, racism, and religious bigotry.Questions, queries, or just to say hi!E-mail: [email protected] our online stuff!Twitter: @animattackpodInstagram: @animalattackpodBluesky: @animalattackpod.bsky.socialTiktok: @animalattackpodYouTube: @animalattackpod

Alpha, Beta, Omega! Fadzai and Sandile run a mile with the born wolf and prodigal son, Derek Hale.A tritagonist of the early seasons of Teen Wolf, Derek appears in the show as the first other werewolf encountered by Scott McCall. Initially thought to be the one that turned him, Derek becomes a reluctant mentor to Scott after revealing the actual culprit is an Alpha that killed his sister, whom he needs Scott's help tracking down. Derek moves through various stages over his time in the show, at times an antagonist, but ultimately evolving into a reliable support figure in the supernatural goings-on of the main cast.Content Warning: This episode contains discussion of arson, child abuse, emotional abuse, ephebophilia, fatphobia, grooming, mental illness and related stigma, pedophilia, racism, and religious bigotry.Questions, queries, or just to say hi!E-mail: [email protected] our online stuff!Twitter: @animattackpodInstagram: @animalattackpodBluesky: @animalattackpod.bsky.socialTiktok: @animalattackpodYouTube: @animalattackpod

Draw, aim, fire! Sandile and Fadzai begin the Teen Wolf season by discussing the huntress herself, the Allison Argent.The deuteragonist of the series (at least during her time on the show), Allison arrives in Beacon Hills to begin her junior year, and quickly becomes a love interest for the lead, Scott McCall. Over time, though, she learns the truth about werewolves and the supernatural goings-on in town, as well as secrets about her family - the Argents - and their position as hunters of the supernatural. Her physical prowess, common sense intelligence, and her capacity for empathy, make her a key and memorable part of the show, even beyond her untimely death.Content Warning: This episode contains discussion of arson, emotional abuse, grooming, mental illness and related stigma, racism, and religious bigotry.Questions, queries, or just to say hi!E-mail: [email protected] our online stuff!Twitter: @animattackpodInstagram: @animalattackpodBluesky: @animalattackpod.bsky.socialTiktok: @animalattackpodYouTube: @animalattackpod

Sandile and Fadzai prepare to return to Beacon Hills as they discuss the subject of the second season of the podcast - Teen Wolf.
