It took me three times reading the chapter to figure out what Taylor did with the caterpillar and toxin, it was so beyond my expectations that it just wouldn't register. I was reading pretty fast as well, it forced me to slow down and think; in my defense slowing down to think is very hard when reading Worm the first time. Taylor is full taylor in this arc, don't underestimate her. Love your read and review, thanks!

"Taylor does not ping my Bi-dar." And every Smugbug and Wolfspider shipper exploded into rage, I think.

My longstanding headcanon on Oni Lee's trigger, incidentally, is that he was a soldier whose squad left him for dead somewhere dangerous.

Listening to the parts further in, I find it very funny that the women in the podcast don't see Taylor as gay, considering that most of the Fandom sees her as bi at minimum and more likely as a compHet lesbian, specially after that scene when Taylor and Lisa go to watch a movie, Lisa uses her power on Taylor and tells her that she's ace, it really reads to me as Lisa turning down Taylor gently, but to each their own haha Also, you guys mentioned how the undersiders don't have a theme and that's just straight up wrong, their theme is literally 'scary villains' Rachel is fear of monsters, grue is fear of darkness, Alec is fear of other people controlling you, Lisa is social fear, of people knowing your secrets. And Taylor is fear of bugs. Biblical style.

Thanks for your feedback. The goal is to continue to do one Arc per episode. We will be splitting the Dissecting Worm portion of the podcast into it's own episodes starting in Arc 8. And again, thanks for listening and engaging.

The "comphet lesbian" read of Taylor is falling out of fashion lately as new readers are finally getting over themselves and appreciating Brian's role in the story better. That's a good thing, I'd say.

I really think the format should be kept as 1 episode for arc. Latter arcs are much longer, it will soon become a nightmare of 10 episodes per arc and people spending months for a new episode on new arcs. I feel like the part where you discuss the option of turning worm into a movie/TV should be cut in time, cut completely or made as a separate video

I would describe myself as ambivalent to keeping the Dissecting Worm segments. They're certainly the more unique half of the podcast, but also very clearly the worse half. I'm strictly willing to listen to them, so they have some entertainment value, but I generally find that they consistently make me (mildly) angry, which I assume isn't the reaction you're going for. It's like a sudden switch from cheerful casual fan discussion of Worm to (a couple of dudes LARPing as) some cynical Hollywood bigwigs who don't get or care about Worm as a story contemptfully discussing their plans to butcher it for a quick buck. It's just a sea of bad takes on what adaptational choices to make, with any good takes mixed in being as rare as life preservers in an actual sea. Keep the DW segments if you're having fun with them, but I do think their net benefit to the podcast is dubious.
