Yuri on Ice Part 2: Figureskater Butt Illumination

The Shipping Forecast

Hey there, bit of an odd one this week. We recorded the episode live, since we happened to all be in the same place for the first time in three years. And while I think it came out pretty well, it was also a bit drier than our usual content (I guess it was harder to talk over each other in one place!)

So, to balance out the more serious reviews, the first third of this episode is bonus content, just us having a laugh a few days later. We didn't have a plan for this, we just noticed the episode was short and just talked for a bit.

So, if you're just here for Yuri on Ice you can skip to around 31:30, but if you like us chatting shit, here we are

Ok, disclaimer out of the way. This week, we Salchow our way into the arena to share our favourite fics from the Yuri on Ice fandom! On our way, we discovered not one but TWO amazing AU formats we'd love to see get off the ground and become as mainstream as certain other Greek Latter named tropes.
