CLICK HERE TO FIND US ON YOUR FAVORITE PODCATCHER. CW: Sex, drinking, betrayal, curses, murder, drug use, sex work allusions, emotional abuse, manipulation and gaslighting, debt collectors. Riverdale isn’t wasting time on this jump forward; in fact, they might be moving too quickly. Barchie is a real thing now, and despite the hot shower sex and refreshing discussion after, the show didn’t give us nearly enough sexual tension between the two. Nor did it do anything positive for Veronica, who now seems doomed to repeat all her Daddykins trauma with Chaddykins. Still, there’s a super cool fight scene, a true introduction for the delightful Tabitha Tate, and a lot for your resident Riverdale detectives to chew on for what’s coming this season. Grab your Kevlar vests and meet up to plan our raid as we discuss “Chapter 81: The Homecoming” this week on The Doghouse! You can email us with feedback at macintoshandmaud@gmail.com, or you can connect with us on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook. Also please subscribe, rate and review the show on your favorite podcatcher, and tell your friends. Interstitial music taken from "Make Up" from the compilation album Kamelot by Distortions.
