Brenna and Joe travel to the other side of the world for an investigation into Margaret Mahy\'s 1984 Carnegie Medal winner, The Changeover and its 2017 film adaptation by Miranda Harcourt and Stuart McKenzie. Brenna appreciates the prickly, unconventional mother/daughter relationship, Joe unpacks how the film uses the 2011 earthquake to inform its narrative and, for the first time on the podcast, an ending dramatically alters the pair\'s appreciation of one of the texts.

In homework: Brenna and Joe chat about the impact of Disney\'s closure of the FOX 2000 studio, which produced Love, Simon, The Hate U Give and other \'mid-tier\' prestige films. Joe also introduces The Changeover star Nicholas Galitzine\'s upcoming Netflix series, Chambers, which also deals with mysterious events (the guy has a type).
