My Youth Is Yours, a Supercorp fanfic written by lynnearlington, retells Season 2 of Supergirl with the backstory that Kara and Lena dated in college and are seeing each other again for the first time since their breakup. In this episode, Kris and Stephanie first offer some nonspoilery talk about why and what they like about the fanfic. Then they delve into spoilery discussion of different elements and plot points in the story.
NOTE: This discussion covers up through Chapter 14 of My Youth Is Yours. The beginning section of the podcast discusses the fanfic generally before delving into material that contains spoilers. The spoiler-full section also contains a spoiler for You Cut Through All the Noise by the same author.
