Dawson's Speak: A Podcast About Dawson's Creek

Joey gets mugged. Joey sings with her mugger. The mugger dies. We don't know what else to say (even though we talked for more than an hour about this!)... 

In this part 1 of 2 episodes, apparently (yep, that means "Downtown Crossing" is coming up): Dawson directs Oliver's movie (that we still don't entirely understand), Joey gets closer to Professor Wilder, and Jack leaves the frat house... 

Traci and Charles finally take your "fan-submitted, anonymously-written" questions – from Hogwarts house sortings to Charles' series finale predictions to Disney recommendations. There's also an advice section! Sorry in advance!

Charles' nightmare comes to life as Joey and Professor Wilder get a liiiiiittle too close for comfort. Also, Dawson starts college (again), Jen loses her edge, and Jack is on academic probation. Who knew it'd be up to Pacey to be the adult in the room?

Dawson moves into Grams' house, Jack moves into the fraternity house, and Pacey has to move off of the boat. So much moving! Also, Traci and Charles talk about Hogwarts houses for a little bit too long. (Sorry.)

Joey sings, Pacey and Audrey get new(ish) jobs, and trouble is brewing in Capeside as Dawson and Jen get into their first fight but then resolve things pretty quickly. Mainly, Charles is relieved that this isn't an episode about Joey and Professor Wilder, but is a Joey/Charlie pairing really any better? 

Come for the drama, stay for Traci and Charles having emotional realizations about their lives and past relationships. Dawson and Jen get caught making out in the foyer! Joey spends the whole episode convincing people she's fine! Audrey throws food on herself! Jack and Jen have a heart-to-heart! And Pacey just tries to cook everyone dinner while they all flip out. Poor Pacey.

As the title tells us, there are four scary stories presented. But as the title won't tell you, they're not...really...that...good? That's a bold claim. Maybe they are great and we're dumb. That could be it.  Joey beats up a predator, Jack meets a ghost, Pacey and Karen get chased by a ghost car, and Jen...well, we're not really sure what happened there.

Dawson finds peace at a film festival (and, as the fan submitted, anonymously written IMDb summary doesn't tell us, loses his virginity), Jack's bro-y behavior irks Joey and Audrey, and Pacey dates Karen, sleeps with Karen, then says goodbye to Karen. Traci and Charles also apologize for their mouths moving faster than their brains. 

Dawson goes to therapy, Joey shines in her research group, and Pacey plays the moral compass. Meanwhile, Traci and Charles talk about the law (but we're not a legal podcast) as Charles rants about his dislike for Chef Danny and Professor Wilder.

As predicted, this week is all about...well, anxiety. Dawson and Jack get drunk and Dawson ends up being a little *too* honest with Joey, Jen ends things with Charlie after finding out he's a cheater, Audrey's mom is in town, and Pacey ends up having to throw a party on the boat he's staying on to avoid lending it to his boss for his affair. Also, Charles makes a bold prediction about the series finale!

We're back! And still very sad :( Everyone's relationships are falling apart and Dawson is having anxiety attacks. But at least Professor Wilder's got a fun project going on.

A lovely episode in which we say goodbye to Mitch Leery, talk about grief and the grieving process, and get really, really sad. We also discuss floor ice cream more.

And here Charles thought season 5 was going so well... Dawson returns to Capeside to tell his parents he's dropping out of school, Joey discovers Pacey is in Boston, and Jen tries to connect with Charlie on a deeper level. Plus, Jack gets a fraternity bid and eating ice cream takes a horrible turn.

What a weekend our kids must have had -- except we don't get to see any of it! Dawson and Joey continue to argue over their relationship, Pacey talks his way into a kitchen job, and Jen and Charlie "listen to music." Also, Traci and Charles address some comments from the last study hall, and Traci tries to explain what a wrap skirt is to Charles.

Welcome to college! Welcome to Boston (and a little bit of LA)! Dawson lands a dream internship, Joey struggles with her writing class and a new roommate, and Jack and Jen are just looking to fit in. Plus, Pacey is still on a boat (but not where Charles thought he'd be).

We've come to the end of the high school years! Traci and Charles recap a wild year for the Capeside crew, including favorite moments, least favorite episodes, and the characters that deserved better. Also, Charles makes his season 5 predictions! They're...fine.

It's time for the season 4 finale and boy was it...not what we thought it would be. Everyone is on the edge of their seats waiting for Dawson and Joey to say goodbye, Pacey is off on a boat at work, and Grams says goodbye to Capeside. 

Our kids are all grown up! The gang graduates high school (and Andie returns!), Joey struggles to write a speech, Pacey struggles to pass his last final, Andie returns, Jack and Tobey discuss their relationship, and did we mention Andie returns? Also, Traci and Charles talk about snacks (again), Myspace, and how much we've missed Andie.

Our sinking ships give their final parting words as graduation nears and Gretchen leaves town. Plus, Grams is moving to Boston! How convenient! Also, Traci and Charles argue about snack foods. Our lunchtime discussions are getting more contentious.
