We are back with another story about the world of YA that is young adult literature

Do you remember what what other YA stories we've covered? No, I can no longer remember what we cover

Versa when I wrote about but they all involved these deranged attempts to accuse people of various isms on the basis of like

You know an out of context quote from one of their books. Yeah, I didn't remember either

But I googled it and apparently in episode 41 you walk me through the quote recent history of young adult fiction Twitter

AKA wide to YA Twitter and attempted to explain how it got to be such a Hobzian hellscape. Yes, I assume you're talking about Michael there

Oh, yeah, Hobzian. Yes. Yes. The latest scandal involved Jessica Lewis a YA author falsely accused of racism and violence and the opportunistic

Authors consultants and agents rushing to denounce her in his colorful and overwrought and manner as possible any recollection of that

Yeah, it was really bad and I felt bad for and it was insane. Who was she? I don't remember her at all

I don't remember the details at all, but it was really bad

Thank you, Jesse. You know, here's the thing. I know people I don't want people to think like

What's like the right analogy here? There's so many internet bullshit stories that pass through our brains that it's genuinely hard a few weeks later to remember

What's what except for ones like

That you do like really really in-depth investigations. This is just we were swimming in this stuff

Yeah, either that or we just have bed memories

We also I was also going to say like you could you don't expect LeBron James to remember every game
