In the season finale of Fairy Gaymothers Sorta, Kat and Hunter complete their exam in the last instalment of their extremely rigorous (and completely self-appointed) curriculum of semester one: Know Thy Unknown. This week, they turn their attention to the things that simply refuse to make sense, and perhaps were never meant to.

First on the agenda, Kat and Hunter report back with their recurring fieldwork segment: The Crash, Bit, Bang. In a special twist, the girls take turns crashing out over the many things in this world they just don’t understand. Some are sweeping, existential concepts, others are smaller, more niche curiosities… and a few are things they’ve decided they’re actually better off not knowing at all.

Wrapping up their first semester at Fairy Gaymother Academy, Kat and Hunter reflect on everything they’ve learned (academically, spiritually, and emotionally, give or take), revisit standout moments, and take stock of how their worldview has shifted. They also offer a glimpse into what’s ahead for semester two, including new lessons, evolving perspectives, and, of course, continued unqualified guidance.

In this episode of Fairy Gaymothers Sorta, Kat and Hunter enrol in another instalment of their extremely rigorous (and completely self-appointed) curriculum: Know Thy Sparkle. This week, they take a look at what makes us shine, and ask why it feels like mayhaps we’ve collectively dimmed the lights?

First on the agenda, Kat and Hunter report back with their recurring fieldwork segment: The Crash, Bit, Bang. Hunter absolutely loses it over the widespread theft of her texting lingo (and therefore, her rizz), while Kat steps into a new era, experimenting with styles that have her feeling fly, fresh, and frankly unstoppable. #styleicon

From there, we move into the main lecture: sparkle (or lack thereof). Kat and Hunter unpack the rise of the “lobotomized chic” trend and why Gen Z seems slightly obsessed with numbness. Is it aesthetic or coping? What does it say about our collective desire to take the edge off? The girls investigate the cultural shift toward detachment, emotional minimalism, and what it means to feel nothing, but fashionably.

In this episode of Fairy Gaymothers Sorta, Kat and Hunter enrol in another instalment of their extremely rigorous (and completely self-appointed) curriculum: Know Thy Hobbies. Yes girls and gays, we’re getting introspective… but like, fun about it. This week’s syllabus tackles the age-old question plaguing our generation: do we actually have hobbies, or are we just scrolling with conviction?

First on the agenda, Kat and Hunter report back with their recurring fieldwork segments: The Hinge Cringe and Crash / Bit / Bang. Hunter attempts to defend her matchmaking abilities (the evidence scarce), while Kat explains her deeply held philosophy of joy by proxy, specifically through the time-honoured practice of watching SMOSH videos like they’re prestige television. From there, we enter the main lecture: hobbies. Hunter and Kat unpack their own personal hobbies, the mysterious state of Gen Z hobbies as a whole, and why so many of us feel like we’re supposed to have enriching personal interests but instead just have… screen time reports. Does scrolling count as a hobby? Are we doomed to live hobbyless lives? It’s up to us to investigate.

Plus, a surprisingly earnest exploration of something radical in the year of our lord 2026: being alone. What happens when you actually spend time with yourself? Is solitude scary, powerful, healing, or all three? Kat and Hunter discuss the quiet art of getting to know yourself, and why it might be the most important hobby of all. It’s hobbies. It’s existential. It’s extremely unserious self-improvement. 🧚‍♀️📓

In this episode of Fairy Gaymothers Sorta, Kat and Hunter enrol in a brand-new instalment of their self-imposed curriculum: Know Thy News. Yes, girls and gays, we’re getting journalistic (loosely). This week’s syllabus includes the most pressing events in pop culture right now, from baffling celebrity discourse to the stories that have taken over everyone’s timelines. As always, we report back with our crashes, bits, and bangs of the week, because staying culturally literate is a full-time job.

We dive into the newest Wuthering Heights adaptation starring Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi (our personal enemy), unpack the unexpected fan fiction ecosystem emerging around The Pitt, and attempt a groundbreaking academic exercise: using the Lesbian Web™ to properly place the chaotic characters and actors of Hulu’s Tell Me Lies. Naturally, things only get more unhinged from there.

Plus, a deep dive into the internet’s favourite pastime: celebrity conspiracy theories, including the strange and suspicious online narratives swirling around Selena Gomez. Are these theories based in fact, fiction, or pure chronically-online energy? The girls investigate. It’s news. It’s nonsense. It’s cultural reporting of the highest (and lowest) order. 🧚‍♀️📰

In this episode of Fairy Gaymothers Sorta, Kat and Hunter enrol in a brand-new instalment of their self-imposed curriculum: Know Thy Crime or Do Thy Time. Yes, girls and gays, we’re getting investigative. This week’s syllabus includes cold cases, serial murderers, and the ever-growing cultural obsession with true crime. They dig into the ethics of it all: Who gets centred in these stories? Is consuming true crime a form of advocacy, or are we all just a little too comfortable treating real tragedy like prime television?

It’s camp. It’s crime.

Plus: we premiere a brand-new segment, The Hinge Cringe, where the girls bravely (and foolishly) read the most horrifying dating app messages they’ve ever received — digital artifacts so unsettling they deserve to be sealed in a vault beneath the earth. Consider this your formal warning.

Please note: Unfortunately, there was some technical difficulties with the microphones towards the end of the video (homophobic, we know) and we apologize in advance if it disturbs the listening experience!

In this episode of Fairy Gaymothers Sorta, Kat and Hunter enroll in a brand-new installment of their self-imposed curriculum: Know Thy Slur. Yes, girls and gays, we’re getting academic. This week, the syllabus includes curse words, cultural context, and the ever-evolving perception of “bad language” in society. What makes a word scandalous? What makes it reclaimed? What makes it… absolutely not fit for human consumption?

The Fairy Gaymothers dive into the delicate art of discernment: which slurs are camp, which are c*nty (complimentary), and which ones should stay locked in the dusty archives of 2007 Twitter discourse where they belong. It’s a playful (and mildly chaotic) exploration of linguistics, power, and knowing when a word slays… and when it nays.

Kat delivers a passionate update on Canada’s iconic bronze medal moment for Piper and Paul, and takes us on a scenic tour through Lady Gaga’s discography like the pop scholar she is. Hunter, on the other hand, fully crashes out over memories she has apparently erased from her own hippocampus, prompting an investigation into whether nostalgia is real or just gay propaganda.

Class is in session. Grab your notebooks and watch your mouth.

This episode of Fairy Gaymothers, Sorta is brought to you by multiple organ failure, mysterious vitamins, and the horrors that visit you at 3 a.m. Kat and Hunter crash out about the chaos of their bodies slowly breaking down and the absolute confusion that is the supplement industrial complex - b12? metamucil? lexapro? Who knows.

Listen as they discuss and nominate Meghan Trainor and Tom Sandoval as the official sleep paralysis demons of the week, because some images simply cannot be unseen.

They also unpack the cultural moment we’re trapped in, from the “skinny epidemic” and the renewed pressure on women to shrink themselves (both literally and metaphorically) to the oppressive resurgence of body standards we thought we left in the 2000s.

Come for the cultural commentary, stay for the bodily decay, existential dread, and whatever other lessons we manage to learn along the way.

In this episode of Fairy Gaymothers Sorta, Kat and Hunter share their take on popular romance tropes and what your trope of choice can say about you. Coming from the perspective of two women who don’t date men, they evaluate how they’d approach different romance tropes, which tropes they avoid, and how tropes can teach you what you want in a relationship. Plus, they play a fun game where Hunter explains the main conflict in a popular book, and Kat reacts with the appropriate amount of concern for straight people. This week’s lesson in the self-imposed curriculum is Know Thy Trope. Tune in to hear us crash out over the devastating loss of Catherine O’Hara, recount the fun that was had on Hunter’s champagne birthday, and more.
