The Anti-Grapevine: A Degrassi Podcast

By: Conor Michael and Loren O'Connell
  • Summary

  • Tune in each week as two rapidly aging millennials test their chops as former Degrassi superfans and dive deep into the characters you love, crushed on, and simply can't stand. Each episode, Conor and Loren explore the storylines that defined the kids of Degrassi Community School, and use those characters to come to an understanding about what this show taught them about themselves, the world around them, and Canadian teen soap operas at large.

  • E106 - How Much Do You Make, Ice Cream Boy? (Terri MacGregor)
    Dec 11 2024

    The Oracle has spoken, and there's a new episode of the Anti-Grapevine in your future. This episode, Conor and Loren hang with literal sociologist and beloved friend of the pod, Darcy Hauslik to make sense of the story of Degrassi sidekick, Terri MacGregor. We talked for four hours, and we're still not sure what she saw in Spinner Mason.

    (Content Warning: This episode includes discussion of intimate partner violence, parental death, and fatphobia.)

  • E104 - Man, I'm A Twig! (Sav Bhandari)
    Nov 13 2024

    Hey guys, look what I found in the bushes! It's a new episode of the Anti-Grapevine! For their fourth episode, Conor and Loren cover sticker-collecting-king-turned-Keke-Palmer's-fling, Sav Bhandari. We scream, we laugh, and we try to reconcile with why the show has an obsession with student-teacher pairings.

    (Content Warning: This episode includes discussion of miscarriage and inappropriate relationships between students and teachers.)
