<p>A week late, but hopefully not a dollar short, today we journey back in time to suburban Indiana and through both seasons of this show that has dominated pop culture and our Netflix feeds.</p>

<p>Talking Points: Not splitting the party, the hero&#8217;s journey, getting distracted by how much we hate Billy, the gender divide in vulnerability and vilification, the marketability of nostalgia, a comfort in formula, standing in your truth (and tropes), and, hey, not every female character has to be likable.</p>

REmediaL STUDIES, Episode 9: Alan Moore's "Watchmen"

Remedial Studies is a podcast by two nerdy ladies who just want to make the world listen to our academic opinions on the most nonacademic subjects. No media form is off limits! Books people call trash? Absolutely! Albums from artists you never heard of (or heard too much of)? You betcha! Movies that never got their box office due for being "too niche?" Where would we be without them! Television that you stayed up way too late to watch? We're right they're with you! Games that would have gotten you made fun of as a kid that are kind of cool now? We're your one stop shop! Join us, Hannah and Rachel, as we work through all the pop culture we can get our hands on and do our best to stay on topic along the way. New episodes every other Tuesday.
