Happy Christmas, gang!
In our now yearly tradition, we're sharing one of our bonus episodes of Pi Beta Alpha with you! If you like what you hear, you can sign up to Headstuff+ and join us in the PBA clubhouse at headstuffpodcasts.com. It might not strictly be a Christmas episode, but it does feature snow and skiing! You know we love it when the gang leaves the Sweet Valley town limits (wherever the hell they are). This week the twins, Cheryl and Enid head to a ski resort, where Jessica is determined to finally beat Elizabeth on the slopes. Liz clearly doesn't care about this alleged rivalry, but when she gives in to Jessica's demands for a rematch, the Wakefields find themselves in danger. Meanwhile Enid is tempted to betray "the Manimal" when she meets a ski lodge hunk, Todd is once more shockingly endearing, and our hopes for the return of Winston's Mario-esque ski dungarees are cruelly dashed. All this and a montage!

The high school war (remember that? Don’t worry, this book will remind you of it a LOT) is still raging, and when Bruce leads the SVH lads to slash the tyres of the Palisades goons’ cars, things escalate pretty quickly. Alas it’s Winston who ends up in true danger - will he be the first fatality of the conflict?! Meanwhile Ken discovers the truth about Jessica’s surfing sessions in a deliciously dramatic style, and Saint Liz turns her attentions to the Palisades girls, with deeply awkward results.

Did you know there's a high school war on? Well, don't worry, you'll get reminded of it a LOT during this episode! After the dramatic rumble at the Palisades/SVH dance, the Sweet Valley jocks are out for blood - and a stunned Jessica vows never to see her Palisades love Christian again. Of course her vow lasts about 48 hours - but will Ken, who now seriously gives her the ick (#poorKen), find out about her affair? Meanwhile Liz continues to fight for peace, Todd gets patriarchal, and Winston has a crisis of conscience.

Tension rises in both Sweet Valley and Palisades this week, as Liz's attempts to forge connections between the two schools backfire spectacularly. Being called Li'l Windbag has traumatised Ken so much he's basically had a personality transplant, and the former lovable himbo can think of nothing but revenge. Luckily this distracts him from the fact that his girlfriend is cheating on him yet again. Things come to a head at the big dance that's inexplicably taking place in a manky old kip full of cobwebs - where Jessica makes a shocking discovery.

We're back! And not before time. When the Palisades Pumas play dirty on the football pitch, the boys of Sweet Valley vow revenge, but Liz, Enid and their new Palisades pals decide to bring the rival schools together with a dance. Of course. However, when the SVH lads indulge in some truly iconic terrible trash talk, tensions rise even further. Meanwhile, Jessica decides to become a champion surfer in the space of a month, and meets a mysterious beach hunk. Could this finally be the beginning of the end for her and Ken?

Ever get the feeling you've been cheated? We had high hopes for Jessica's diary, which promised to reveal all about Jessica's steamy antics with Jeffrey French behind Liz's back. But unlike Liz's secret diary, which featured a whole romance with Ken, this is basically just a recap of SVH books 30-40 with a few references to #poorjeffrey shoehorned in! Join us for a trip down memory lane featuring highs (Jessa Fields! Tofu-Glo!) and lows (pretty much everything else). But the book manages to take us by surprise in the end...

Don your young executive outfit and pick up your poetry books, we're heading back to SVU! Jessica comes up with a scheme to both go to the big dance with college boy Zach AND stay in the Theta sorority's good books - and it's unhinged even by her standards. Will Liz go along with it?(Well, hat do you think?) And the Sweet Valley High gang's frankly worrying plan to bring home the twins gets going - will that old trick reverse psychology work its magic yet again? All this and an excellent SVU books shoutout plus a genuinely good twist we didn't see coming!

The Wakefield twins are still at SVU - and it looks like they won't be coming home. High on her inexplicable success in the journalism competition and her own massive sense of entitlement, Liz is determined to shine at SVU - but she may be out of her depth. Meanwhile Jessica is so smitten by Zach (who is remarkably tolerant of her consistently unhinged behaviour) that she's decided to stay in college too #poorken. Can their pals persuade them to return to Sweet Valley High? All this and the return of the young executive!

We all know that when it comes to journalism Elizabeth's favourite subject is Sweet Valley, so when she's inexplicably allowed to enter a college feature writing competition on student life, she's stumped for an angle. Luckily for us, but unfortunately for her rivals, she finds the perfect topic for her hilariously ignorant yet sanctimonious style! Meanwhile Jessica continues to date Zach (#poorKen) and spin him a web of lies. But her romance may destroy her chance to become a Theta (in two whole years). While Billie enables Jessica's nonsense, Steven is losing patience with his house guests - and seriously who can blame him?

Despite Jessica's appalling academic record, Ned and Alice have decided that the best way for her and Liz to recover from the SAT drama is to take them out of school for a week and send them off to Sweet Valley University to stay with Steven. Why? Who knows! But we do know that the twins have very different visions of the college experience. Jessica is determined to spend the week impressing college guys (urgh and also, Ken who?) while Liz is looking for more intellectual stimulation. When their hosts head away for a poorly scheduled romantic getaway, Jessica is determined to throw a huge party in the free gaff and immediately starts inviting random hunks. Can Liz foil her twin's schemes? Or will she just be a doormat as usual?

The twins resit the SATs, but while Liz's stress free approach to the exams leads to triumph, Jessica's serious studying leads to disaster. When Jessica is suspended from school, Elizabeth is determined to prove her twin's innocence. How? With an inexplicably legally binding mock trial, of course! But when Jessica's school records are revealed, will they help or hinder her cause? We always suspected the educational standards at SVH were pretty terrible, but this book reveals they're even worse than we thought!

It’s SAT time and Liz is stressing out, while Jessica is totally chill. But there’s a shock in store when the results come out! Jessica has aced the exams, while Liz has got the worst test results of her life. While Jessica fears being labelled a “nerd in hip clothes” (she wishes), Liz starts to spiral. Is the perfect twin actually not as smart as she thought she was? She looks to Todd for comfort, but offers from college sports recruiters have gone to his head. Meanwhile many faces from the past return (including some very unwelcome ones), Mr Collins offers genuinely wise counsel, Jessica checks out hunks in a college prospectus and she and Lila wear a staggering amount of silk.

The gang are still out in the desert, and things are getting even more dangerous. Eagle attacks! Floods! And of course murderous (and in one case hunky) OTG convicts! But if any proof were needed that nothing can keep these freaks down, it's surely the fact that even when facing their imminent deaths, the SVH gang are still doing what they do best: bickering and flirting.There's a time and a place, lads, and this is not it! Meanwhile, in fanfic corner, there's a new bartender and some new drinks on the menu at Foxy Mama Too. Anyone fancy a Tricia Martini?

We find the gang right where we left them in Death Valley - stuck between a storm and a cave full of skeletons and scorpions. Things are getting desperate for the Sweet Valley Six, as they try and make it across the desert with nothing to sustain them but a few granola bars. Unsurprisingly, they all start losing their minds - especially Bruce. Yes, it's the infamous snake murder scene! Elsewhere Liz and astronomer (?!) Ken rekindle their old flame, Jessica and Heather encounter some convicts - and we end on a very literal cliffhanger.

Welcome back to Death Valley, where the gold is cursed and the hiking teens have lost their damn minds! After the gang take a detour to find a second batch of gold, they decide they have to head straight to Desert Oasis. But Jessica tricks foolish Todd into taking them even further out of their way in order to find the third gold hoard! Consumed by gold fever, soon the gang are throwing their cans of food away to make room for treasure, getting swept away by rapids and being pursued by cursed scorpions. Everyone is completely unhinged in this episode, including us by the end of it!

Pack your rucksacks and fill your single water bottle, we're heading to Death Valley! Yes, having all placed highly in an essay competition which we can only assume some of them were forced to enter at gunpoint, the twins, Todd, Ken, Bruce and Heather are hiking through the desert without any adult supervision. It all sounds absolutely hellish and not just because Liz is in full good girl bossy mode. But the gang's squabbles are forgotten when they find a bag of possibly cursed gold nuggets in a disused mineshaft...

Don your curly blonde wig and bring your mauve blusher, Todd, Ken and Winston (or rather Tilda, Kendall and Winnie) are all dragged up and ready to sneak into the CHRLDR compound! Some really do like it hot, and Ken in particular is loving his delightful new look. He and Todd are determined to win back the twins - but will they get the sticky end of the lollipop? Meanwhile Heather's secret is out and the SVH girls are determined to make a cheering comeback. If only they could spell... Shake your pom-poms in tribute, because it's the end of the cheerleading trilogy. Rah rah rah!

Like Margo and Nora before her, Karyn has headed west to California so there's no new ep this week! But we do have the third installment of Anna's unhinged 2002 fanfic, From Here to Sweet Valley, which I think we can all agree is a more realistic depiction of the twins' adult lives than Sweet Valley Confidential. Liz reaches out to an old friend, Jessica has worrying thoughts about Bruce, and Winston attempts to flee his terrifying wife Lila. Listen to a sample here, and follow the link in the show notes to read more.
