  • Baby Reindeer, Sullivan’s Crossing & Gilmore Girls

    Baby Reindeer, Sullivan’s Crossing & Gilmore Girls
    May 1 2024
    It’s a return to our favourite combo, another mother daughter episode as Em’s eldest Marchella steps in for Michael Lucas. We begin with Chella disowning her own father’s last name and an explain on why she has a deeper voice than Em. Then Em reveals she gave in and watched the entire series of ‘Baby Reindeer’ and she is NOT OKAY! After being told in our previous episode by Michael and Chella to avoid it at all costs, Em decided they’re not the boss of her, dove right in and then promptly nearly drowned in all of the things. (TRIGGER WARNING - Discussion of sexual assault, stalking & abuse) Inside you’ll get a full breakdown on what to expect, why you should probably avoid it and also a bunch of spoilers, if you’d prefer to skip ahead, then you need to jump from 9.43 to 20.35 to escape any reveals. We follow that with the palate cleanser of Em and Chella’s latest obsession ‘Sullivan’s Crossing’, from playing ‘Okay, Stop!’ with the show’s trailer, to giving us a full exposé on why it's terrible, but also essential viewing. Em even gets Chella to reveal why she watches ‘Gilmore Girls’ on repeat and play a clip from a birthday cameo she got from Scott Patterson, aka Luke Danes, as well. Also in our Sealed Section, Em has become addicted to a particular Fleetwood Mac song and its accompanying live performance, plus Disney is releasing a Mufasa origin story and Em has a LOT to say about it.

  • Rebel’s Royal Orgy, Baby Reindeer & Taylor’s Tortured Poets Department

    Rebel’s Royal Orgy, Baby Reindeer & Taylor’s Tortured Poets Department
    Apr 24 2024
    Your commitment to a theme dress for Em’s ‘Outgrown’ tour, and a round of singing old school TV themes gets us underway this week. Then there’s Royal orgy news from Rebel Wilson, which gets interrupted with side-quests into Em’s mum Jenni and her latest spending spree involving a giant tree, a crane and her iPad, plus bat tennis and an ‘It’s A Knockout’ rejection, before Em loses interest. We then delve into the TV series everyone is telling Em to watch, but she also probably needs to avoid, called ‘Baby Reindeer’. Michael and Chella have thoughts but will Em ever really commit to even watching the show. After that we need to move onto the fact that Taylor Swift dropped ‘The Tortured Poets Department’ last Friday, surprising everyone with a double album drop. Will Michael drop some truth bombs, is Em willing to say what she really thinks, and will we have enough time to side-quest into David Beckham doing the utmost to serve us quality content from Victoria’s 50th birthday? The answer to all of that is a resounding YES! Also in our Sealed Section, we’ll get our inhouse Swiftie and cameraman James to share his thoughts, plus professional Swiftie and Emsolator Kassy joins us on the phone and we’ve collected reactions from other Emsolation Swifties too.

  • Em’s New Show, Taylor & Travis At Coachella & Jenni’s Jury Duty Update

    Em’s New Show, Taylor & Travis At Coachella & Jenni’s Jury Duty Update
    Apr 17 2024
    We begin by revisiting Em and Michael’s teenage hotmail addresses, their lack of flirting skills and how much they were actual virgins in their early days. We even get a bonus retelling of Em’s fave story about Michael’s most tragic love rejection. Then Em gets Michael to give us an update on his Mum’s journey into herbal remedies, which turns out to be a little bit of a letdown. We also get a full rundown of Em’s upcoming tour ‘Outgrown’, once Michael works out the most flawless way to introduce it. That’s followed by the news that the first weekend of Coachella has happened and there’s much to reflect, from Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift cutting a rug while surrounded by security, to Doja Cat’s mind blowing stage performance with all the extra hair. Finally we get Em’s mum on the phone so that Jenni can give us a full rundown of her failed attempt to be added to someone’s jury and dish out some just punishment that doesn’t involve spell books and office bin fires, bless.
