Juvenalia is a pop culture podcast where a guest joins Alan Maguire, Sarah Maria Griffin, and Andrea Cleary to talk about a piece of pop culture that they were obsessed with when they were young. It’s good, you’ll like it.

Juvenalia was the convergence of all the sound Irish Twitter heads. End of an era. Will there ever be a palace where you could go from an episode about Bosco to Buffy to Hellraiser and back again? Only time will tell.
We have An Announcement: we’ve decided to end Juvenalia. There’s a larger statement over on insta but we just want to say thanks to everybody that’s supported the podcast over the last (almost) ten years www.instagram.com/p/DOGOz4eDDl...

What a lovely thing it was to love a podcast for so long and eventually end up co-hosting it. I've been a very lucky girl. Night night Juvenalia, sleep well 🛌🌙

Juvenalia never fails to make me light up like I'm having a really interesting conversation with a pal! I absolutely wrote a presentation about the Alien franchise as trans allegory in college (mostly focusing on body horror and dysphoria).

This episode was recorded before the passing of Pope Francis. We don’t mention the pope or any religion at all actually in the episode, it’s just a fun fact!
