## Official Episode Description

This week the boys become intimately familiar with the work of Suzanne Weyn, or should I say, Suz-ANN! Have any of you ever seen Ann and Suzanne in the same room at the same time? Didn’t think so. Nice try, Ann, but we’re on to you. Stacey is back in the dog house, Claudia is back to being eternal sad, and the Pikes continue to deliver the best burns in the business.

## Notes

* Tanner Sings and Jack Sings a "Game of Thrones" podcast intro.
* Tanner makes the bold claim that Suzanne is the ghostwriter most able to capture Ann's voice. He looks up her books, which include The Barcode Tattoo and Return to Cybertron. The boys are pleased by her 1980s Transformer fanfiction habits. Tanner Sings "get out of my Weyn and into my podcast". They coin "Suzanne Man" and "Weyniac". Later, Tanner wonders why the BSC books aren't mentioned in Suzanne's bibliographies.
* Two baby bees got matching "hi hi" tattoos.
* Jack references this week's Happy Reading section.
* Stacey and Claudia are in a fight this week.
* Chrysler Building, Famous Ray's pizza, Murray's Bagel, delays on the A-train, the C is running on the F line ("You sound like a regular Stacey McGill over there.")
* Not only a real location (Fire Island), but another veilwalker: Johnny Depp.
* There's a Roleplay where Ann is a new ghostwriter sitting on top of Pete's shoulder inside a trench coat.
* Next week..."did you say dong?"
