Parents! Religion! Running naked in the streets! This episode has it all... no wonder we talked about a 24 minute episode for an hour and more. Join us as we discuss how Isak fully actualizes just as his world comes crashing down around him. Sad, sad, sad cliffhanger indeed.

Isak is outed at school and decides to come out to Mahdi and Magnus. They might be dumb boys, but they’re totally supportive friends. They even have some advice to give.

IT’S HELL WEEK. OG STYLE. Isak can’t sleep. He avoids everyone, even bestie Jonas. Even makes a brief appearance to make us all sadder about cheese toasties. How’s it all going to end? In a Jonas and Isak scene that is just the best.

JUST KIDDING, *THIS* IS *THE EPISODE*, YOU GUYS
The one with talk of parallel universes. The one with the crucial locker room scene. The one with the shoving match and poetic cinema and possibly the cringiest of all scenes, where Isak declares he’s not “that kind of gay.” Luckily, Eskild is at his finest. Join us as we spend 25 minutes talking about the first scene alone, and kick of H-H-H-H-HELLLLL WEEK.

It’s THE EPISODE, you guys.
Isak is digging himself in deeper with his friends and family, compartmentalizing life further, avoiding the word “gay” at all costs, and yet he can’t help his feelings for Even from growing stronger and more undeniable than ever, simultaneously moving closer and further away from a true, integrated self. But that’s our psych 101! Join us as we discuss sleeping arrangements, biology buddies, painfully well-intentioned mothers and girlfriends, and, of course, the pool scene. AND IT’S ONLY EPISODE 4!!!!

Sometimes the lyrics of a song will tell us exactly what our character is thinking and that's beautiful. Isak, for example, would like for Evan to talk to Sonja, and you know, let her know that he's met somebody new. Yes, it's time for the iconic "Call Your Girlfriend" scene where the chemistry between Even and Isak is so intense we wonder how no one else at that party can see it? Also, Jonas continues to be a perceptive and caring friend.
We might have spent the first 20 minutes talking about the experience of watching six remakes at the same time...

It’s time for cheese toasties and love!
Isak is crushing hard on Even and wants to know everything about him. Which, yeah, we get it. This episode gives us Nas, cardamom, Alt er Love, and strong Baz Luhrmann opinions. Also basically the most perfect clip of the season. Too bad the end of the episode is also the worst.

For a show called “Pressure,” German Skam sure has a lot of well-adjusted teenagers! We love stoner Matteo and bespectacled Amira. We learned a whole set of new high school traditions and continue to marvel at European drinking laws. But first, Gaby shocked Liska into literal speechlessness with a revelation about French Charles. Join us for another season 1 deep dive, this time in Deutschland!

Ciao amici!
We discuss Martino's season, and one of our favorite adaptations so far! Italian boy squad wins the boy squad crown. Martino's mom totally made us cry. Nico might be Liska's favorite Even. Gio is still king of our hearts, and Chicco Rodi plays a bigger role in Martino and Niccolo's love story than he'll ever know. There's a lot to talk about and it’s a looong one. Hopefully it all makes sense... :)
Episodes discussed: season 2 of SKAM Italia
