- 56 minutes 25 secondsBread & Barricades: V.xvii, Marius is Perfect
Cw: reference to domestic and child abuse, discrimination against incarcerated people,
Nemo and Stevie are together at long last! This week we stare at a wall! It's the day after the wedding and Hugo immediately comes at us with his usual gross bullshit. Valjean makes his confession because he’s a (stupidly) honest man, and Cosette is transformed into … “a woman”. Marius thinks he’s galaxy brained as he tries to make 2+2=5.

Cw: descriptions of grief, dehumanisation and incarceration
Jean Valjean goes home to have sad flashbacks about Cosette's childhood, then wrestles with a new dilemma. Then we talk about Murderbot quite a bit before going back to him being sad, untherapised and traumatised.

Cw: suicide reference, racism mention, anti-LGBT policits reference,
Straight out the gate with derailed impure thoughts about Valjean, then it's onto the wedding of a century. It's Mardis Gras and this old man needs to yell at a cloud before another old man gives a wedding speech!

Cw: suicide mention, referenced homophobia
Burying gold in forests, shipper's goggles make us sad, and we get obsessed with numbers yet again (p0ur 1 6ut 4 2avert). Hugo thrills us with civil status, violet scents and an old man dresses his granddaughter-in-law in his mistress's clothes, then we talk for a while about masculinity.

Cw: death mention, graphic injury description, drug use mention
We made a joke about never coming back…. And then went away for a while. But we’re back and with more chaotic energy than ever! Javert’s ghost haunts other characters in the hunt for Valjean, and Hugo says happy pride before we settle in for our hardest job yet… caring about Marius.

Cw: conversations about death, suicide, Trump mention
Our favourite girly goes through it… for the last time. Just like Javert, we are quite thoroughly derailed.

1 April 2025, 7:13 am - 54 minutes 1 secondBread & Barricades: V.xi, Sad Eyed Javert
Cw: implications of suicide, death,
Hugo starts us off with some equal opportunity foot fetish, the return of a knob, and Javert and Valjean meet again in filthy circumstances. Javert and Valjean have a tense cab ride around town, Marius narrowly escapes becoming the protagonist of a different musical and if an old man can change, then so can other people.
I talk about Nestor. It's not Nestor, it's Priam.

Cw: description of drowning, death, sewage,
[re-uploaded, apologies for the incorrect audio]
Hugo sucks us in with a horrifying account of the sewers, Jean Valean struggles through the sewers, gets down on his knees, only to be met with a familiar and talkative face.

Cw: discussions of sewage, getting lost in the dark, references to suicide, death,
Hugo takes us into the horrors of the sewers, where our smart boy is led by the hand of God. A criminal goes for a stroll by the Seine, pursued by a tall man who is more attractive than Chris Evans… and we finally reach the culmination of a bready bit.

Cw: sinophobia, discussion of sewage,
We dive into the sewers and for the first time ever, Hugo might be right about science, and also teaches us some new words?? We say the word cloaca about seventy thousand times, the English are respectable, and we find Javert's Inspection Chamber ;) Also, did you know the origin of the word OOZE? Prepare yourself because Nemo and Stevie have a LOT of passion about sewers.

Cw: discussions of death, blood, battle wounds
Open your death notes because it's time to catalogue some boy death! Someone is lost in translation, Marius is bloodied and Hugo is epic. Enjolras canonically kisses a man twice… and then the iconic scene we've all been waiting for.
