Don't Forget the Chickpeas
A Pretty Little Liars rewatch podcast about the things we love & hate about the show, everything queer we can possibly discuss, the best & worst outfits, the best & worst parents, our love for Heather Hogan, and chickpea recipes! (twitter: @chickpeas_pod)
This podcast is hosted by Cameron (she/her) and Deepa (no pronouns). We have been friends for over a decade, and PLL has been a core part of our friendship basically since the beginning. Now that we are back to being long-distance friends, we're rewatching PLL together and sharing our commentary!
