Nick Special 1 "The Fate of Bloom" - Part 2/3In this episode, we'll continue our research in the first Nick special. We meet the Trix, see the first transformation, and form the Winx Club! Why didn't 4Kids call Icy, Darcy, and Stormy "the Trix", when Nick did? Was anyone allowed to use it? Stay tuned to discuss the first transformation, why it was called Charmix, and what that even means! ❄❅❄ Kevin says THIS, is the best dub of the franchise!😈Watch on YouTubeFollow the Podcast
Nick Special 1 "The Fate of Bloom" - Part 1/3In this episode, we'll be going back in depth to the first Nick special. Essentially, it is what we covered in episode 6. Join us to uncover the madness of the apple candles, Faragonda's suspicious behavior, and apple theory!We are restarting our depth into Winx Club Universe. Unlike the first 6 episodes (which still are informative) we'll be continuing in a different direction. The rewatch and recap podcast format is just not for me. It feels forced to retell the entire episode AND say all my extra facts. So we'll be reacting to the series on Twitch and the podcast will consist of edited re-uploads (with minimal editing). Unlike ep. 4-6, we only watch one dub. But I always flip back and forth to see the changes Nick and 4Kids made. It's a fun time with chill cozy vibes. I'd love to see you there!Watch on YouTubeFollow the podcast

In this episode of Magic Winxology, we'll be discussing my Winx story. We will talk about my relationship with the show and my first memories of seeing it. My appreciation for the show changed immensely as a kid growing into adulthood. The depths of Winxtube began to see my content for years, leading me to this moment. All this and more, on Magic Winxology. Watch on YouTube Follow the Podcast
In this episode, we'll be discussing the dubbing history of Winx Club. The original Italian voices live on while new sets of English voices regroup every couple years. We start with 4Kids Entertainment and take a nostalgic history deep dive into every child TV block imaginable. We'll see how the CW network was formed, and how its child block holds up today. After discussing 4Kids censorship, we'll discuss the Cinelume dub and its longevity. And we can't forget Nickelodeon's 2010 production deal, which many mistakenly blame for changing Winx Club.

In this decoding of Magic Winxology, today we introduce the podcast! We'll tackle Winx Club from start to finish, with everything in between. We also take a look at the history of Winx Club, from creator Igino Straffi's inspiration, to the finalized pilot "Magical Bloom". Who did the characters use to be? What did the series look like? Many things certainly influenced Winx Club into the cartoon it became to be in 2004. Watch on YouTube Follow the Podcast
Magic Winxology is a Winx Club Rewatch Podcast featuring Kevin Daly, demonstrating what happens to a Gen-Z 21 year old when his favorite tv show is ever so close but just out of reach. Every week we'll discuss a Winx Club episode in depth. We'll look at all the angles, and find all the meaning amongst the filler. Every era, every season, every frame holds a special part in the decoding these mysteries. There's a beautiful concept that Winx Club already has, yet there's so much more to about it that keeps us coming back. From preconscious memories in 2004, to a 2011 special Nickelodeon underwater mission. 2018 took us to space, while Netflix's spinoffs may have you questioning the integrity of the franchise with echos of the same old memories. Why does this cartoon hold so much power? Is this a toxic fandom? Why is it all so misunderstood? Not even the Magic Archive has the answer (we've looked). We're down to primary sources, and we need all the evidence we can get. Sit back, grab your device, plug in, and help us crack the case! Watch on YouTube Follow the Podcast
