Summary

We have just watched Episode 5 ('Ball') of The Testaments , the spinoff to The Handmaid’s Tale , and this time, we’re RSVP-ing to 'the social event of the season'…for a creepy Gilead Commander in search of a child bride. We’re Fiona Williams, Sana Qadar, Haidee Ireland and Natalie Hambly (of Eyes on Gilead: A Handmaid’s Tale Companion fame). We have questions, we have theories, and we figure you probably do too, so check your optimism bias at the door and join us as we dive deep into the details (just BYO your mason jar of Period Kombucha, okay?). Watch along with us, then join the conversation. Follow Eyes on Screen on Instagram: @eyesonscreenpod   Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
