Bread & Barricades: A Les Mis Podcast

Cw: discussion of ableism, paedophilia and colonialism,  In an alternate world, Ariel and Nemo would be running a Disney podcast. As it is, you’re stuck with us, talking about Les Mis, until such time as Dark!Benji and Autumn rise. We start with some disability theory, Hugo’s ghost permeates all, some ruminations on the podcast. Also, Les Mis is a comedy when it’s at its best.  Schor, Naomi. “Blindness as Metaphor.” Differences, vol. 11, no. 2, 1999, pp. 76–105., https://doi.org/10.1215/10407391-11-2-76.  Andrew Kaye Kauffmann: https://untoldlgbtqtales.wordpress.com/presenters-abstracts/  Paul Gaugain: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Gauguin    This podcast was produced by Nemo Martin and Julian Yap.

Cw:  referenced sex work, death mention, Hugo the lolicon We attempt to solve the sexy mystery of Chad Sexy Garden versus Virginal tick Garden, we get Hugo’s opinions on the education of women and Catholic schoolgirls, and Jean Valjean is a prolific reader (aka Autistic King). We touch upon some complex thoughts about Cosette, who she is, and how we talk about her.  This podcast was produced by Nemo Martin and Julian Yap.

Cw: mention of death in childbirth, Nazi mention, genocide mention, disability discussion, ableism mention, sexual content  That’s right it’s another Voltaire-heavy episode because once the obsession starts, it just won’t stop. We’ve got catty gossip, disability privilege, and we have more sad fanfic ideas for our boy Fauchelevent.

Cw: abortion as metaphor, depression mention, conversations about incarceration, NSFW conversations Slutty slutty Javert is back, and he’s got a criminal to catch and a jail of men to get secrets out of. We then move over for some Daddy Beef and little Gremlin action, and then we become drunk girls in a bathroom telling Eponine she can do better.  (ps.

Cw:  racism (specifically anti-Blackness and slavery discussion), Christianity and colonisation discussion, sex work mention, misogyny, grooming mention,  We start off with a mini-special, looking at reviews of Les Mis that came out in the South of the USA in the Civil War, including the most radical takedown of Marius we’ve ever seen, before finally bringing the story back to the barricade boys, including that good, good E/R food.  Reviews of Les Mis (including milk toast quote) Southern Literary Messenger    This podcast was produced by Nemo Martin and Julian Yap.

Cw: extended conversation about war, protests and revolutions, transness, COVID, paedophilia mention,  This week we talk about sheds for a bit, which becomes relevant, for sure. Stevie is a man of the people, we push through chats about Enj’s pepis and Nemo tries real hard to concentrate as we learn about a “few” pages of grossly relevant history and his thoughts on REALITY.

Stevie lays their plans for their one man panto, continues to have a breakdown over their cop boyfriend, Javert, and we watch the ultimate police procedural full of 100% hot people.

Cw: suicide mention, familial loss, racism inc anti-Indigenous and anti-Blackness, vivid description of branding,  Nemo and Stevie are perhaps their most feral this episode. They start out as sewer rats, Valjean is trapped in a trap and becomes the Batman, and Nemo wins their great, 4-year-in-the-making con.  Barricades Convention  Sewer photos of Nemo and Stevie   This podcast was produced by Nemo Martin and Julian Yap.

Cw:  child abuse reference, suicide reference,  Stevie, Nemo and Marius are brave little meow meows. Stevie remembers their obsession with lighting, we think about some long… sharp… sticks, and there’s a clown car of boys. We also get into a conversation about who Valjean’s actual foil is.  Barricades Convention    This podcast was produced by Nemo Martin and Julian Yap.

Cw:  child abuse, death mention, stalking, poverty Speaking of life getting out of people’s hands - Nemo embodies the fanfic “oh… oh”, our pantomime takes centre stage and it only takes one double entendre to change how we see Thérnadier getting “on his knees” for Valjean.  Actors weren’t allowed to be buried   This podcast was produced by Nemo Martin and Julian Yap.

Cw: misogyny, anti-Indigenous racism, children in poverty, child abuse We start on a real furry-themed high. We assign characters to cosy British cartoon characters, there’s some cave-sexy times, and a painting that we slowly try to decode with zero art historian know-how.  Why Do Birds  This podcast was produced by Nemo Martin and Julian Yap.

Cw: misogyny, descriptions of child poverty, implied underage sex work,  Nemo starts by ritualistically humiliating himself and it’s all downhill from there. Éponine is a little non-binary creechure, in spite of Hugo’s real great misogyny, and Stevie and Nemo work real, real hard to push out one cohesive point about class consciousness.  Kim Kitsuragi  Taboo - Hannah Thompson This podcast was produced by Nemo Martin and Julian Yap.

cw: description of needles/injection, death mention, anti-Blackness This week we present each other with secondary research all about the festive traditions of 1830s Paris! Perfect for all your fic-writing needs. We learn a lot about fruit, shaving foam and coal mining, and Jean Valjean subscribes to Teen Vogue.

Cw: classism, racism, anti-Blackness, anti-Indigenous thought,  Hugo goes down to some depths in an extended metaphor about theatre, and along the way he does some of his greatest hits, including his wittle twinky OCs, some evil poor people and finally some big boi bear OCs.
