  • DOUBLE LOVE: A KISS BEFORE DYING PART 2
    Feb 27 2025
    The high school war is drawing to a close, but as the incredibly spoilery cover and indeed title suggest, there'll be a tragic casualty before peace breaks out. While this half of the book has a lot of boring surfing stuff, it also contains a lot of drama, including Todd's melodramatic prison fears, scary bikers who sell boats, Rosie being the worst undercover agent ever, and Bruce planning a carjacking. All this and some surprising shout outs to legendary Sweet Valley moments of the past!

  • DOUBLE LOVE: A KISS BEFORE DYING PARTY ONE
    Feb 13 2025
    We're back! And we pick up exactly where we left off, in the aftermath of the warehouse battle. Todd and Bruce have been carted off to the Big House, where the fists of fury make a dramatic appearance, Liz is torn between concern for Todd and anger at her macho classmate's violence, and Jessica and Christian are just driving around in his sordid sex van. Liz is desperate to end the high school war, and comes up with a classic plan to make that happen. She finds an unlikely ally in cartoonishly villainous Palisades surfer Rosie Shaw - but can she trust her?

  • SNOWY PBA: SKIING IS BELIEVING
    Dec 25 2024
    Happy Christmas, gang! In our now yearly tradition, we're sharing one of our bonus episodes of Pi Beta Alpha with you! If you like what you hear, you can sign up to Headstuff+ and join us in the PBA clubhouse at headstuffpodcasts.com. It might not strictly be a Christmas episode, but it does feature snow and skiing! You know we love it when the gang leaves the Sweet Valley town limits (wherever the hell they are). This week the twins, Cheryl and Enid head to a ski resort, where Jessica is determined to finally beat Elizabeth on the slopes. Liz clearly doesn't care about this alleged rivalry, but when she gives in to Jessica's demands for a rematch, the Wakefields find themselves in danger. Meanwhile Enid is tempted to betray "the Manimal" when she meets a ski lodge hunk, Todd is once more shockingly endearing, and our hopes for the return of Winston's Mario-esque ski dungarees are cruelly dashed. All this and a montage! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

  • DOUBLE LOVE: THE HIGH SCHOOL WAR PART TWO
    Dec 19 2024
    The high school war (remember that? Don’t worry, this book will remind you of it a LOT) is still raging, and when Bruce leads the SVH lads to slash the tyres of the Palisades goons’ cars, things escalate pretty quickly. Alas it’s Winston who ends up in true danger - will he be the first fatality of the conflict?! Meanwhile Ken discovers the truth about Jessica’s surfing sessions in a deliciously dramatic style, and Saint Liz turns her attentions to the Palisades girls, with deeply awkward results.

  • DOUBLE LOVE: THE HIGH SCHOOL WAR PART ONE
    Dec 5 2024
    Did you know there's a high school war on? Well, don't worry, you'll get reminded of it a LOT during this episode! After the dramatic rumble at the Palisades/SVH dance, the Sweet Valley jocks are out for blood - and a stunned Jessica vows never to see her Palisades love Christian again. Of course her vow lasts about 48 hours - but will Ken, who now seriously gives her the ick (#poorKen), find out about her affair? Meanwhile Liz continues to fight for peace, Todd gets patriarchal, and Winston has a crisis of conscience.

  • DOUBLE LOVE: IN LOVE WITH THE ENEMY PART TWO
    Nov 21 2024
    Tension rises in both Sweet Valley and Palisades this week, as Liz's attempts to forge connections between the two schools backfire spectacularly. Being called Li'l Windbag has traumatised Ken so much he's basically had a personality transplant, and the former lovable himbo can think of nothing but revenge. Luckily this distracts him from the fact that his girlfriend is cheating on him yet again. Things come to a head at the big dance that's inexplicably taking place in a manky old kip full of cobwebs - where Jessica makes a shocking discovery.

  • DOUBLE LOVE: IN LOVE WITH THE ENEMY PART ONE
    Nov 7 2024
    We're back! And not before time. When the Palisades Pumas play dirty on the football pitch, the boys of Sweet Valley vow revenge, but Liz, Enid and their new Palisades pals decide to bring the rival schools together with a dance. Of course. However, when the SVH lads indulge in some truly iconic terrible trash talk, tensions rise even further. Meanwhile, Jessica decides to become a champion surfer in the space of a month, and meets a mysterious beach hunk. Could this finally be the beginning of the end for her and Ken?
