Happy Valentine’s Day, Degrassholes! Before we dive into Season 3 of Degrassi: The Next Generation, we’re dropping a brand new “minisode” to celebrate Valentine’s Day with a discussion on some of our favorite Degrassi love stories!

And no, none of us chose Eli and Clare as a favorite so if you’re looking for that content, look elsewhere. Icons only: Paige and Alex, Manny and Craig, Manny and Jay, Imogen and Fiona…all the couples that brought the feels, the laughs, and of course, the drama.

Along the way, we discuss some of our dream ships that never came to be (Would Perino date Ms. Kwan or Ms. Hotsauce?), Sean Cameron’s drag career (Wasaga Bitch!), and which couples have us looking for that switch to flip to erase them from our memory.

So grab a box of candy, a yummy pink drink, and if no one’s celebrating you today in the way you deserve, know that we here at Last Shift love you so treat yourself!

xoxo,

Stephan, Morgan, Natasha, Nina, and Perino

Hello and happy holidays, Degrassholes! For our last episode of the year, we present to you the last episode of Season 2 of Degrassi: The Next Generation, Tears Are Not Enough Parts 1 and 2. Can you believe we actually recorded this on NYE of 2022? Probably. Well, it’s edited and here for your listening pleasure if you need an escape from family time this holiday season. Or maybe you were more naughty than nice this year and this is your consolation prize – an episode chock full of Angie Jeremiah and Ashley Kerwin. You’re welcome. Be better next time.

The A plot of this episode finds Craig cramming for finals, which is downright impossible when living with Hurricane Angie. As such, he finds an unexpected getaway from all of the chaos with his father, Dr. Manning. But has Albert truly changed for the better?

The garbage B plots of this two parter center around the upcoming year end luau dance. We’ll let you decide which one is worse: Liberty holding JT hostage for a date to the dance or Spinner and Jimmy continuing whatever this frenemy-ship is over who can get their respective couple crowned luau king and queen. Hey, at least there’s no Emma?

Along the way we tackle the burning topics and questions such as:

• How we all apparently wanted to go to boarding school (“A sleepover with your friends every day!”).
• Again, why weren’t Paige and JT a thing for real?
• Julia Jeremiah’s (RIP) absolute chokehold on the men in her life.
• Why was Simpson giving the entire school every lurid detail about Craig’s dad’s death?

And much much more. So pull up a seat, a hearty glass of eggnog (or just plain whiskey, whatever), and remember that the ultimate Christmas miracle may just be Season 2 finally ending so we can get to the truly good stuff (MANNY’S REIGN COMING FOR US ALL IN 2024)!
