  • The Golden Bachelor with Dr. Christina Juhàsz-Wood

    Welcome back to a one-off episode on The Golden Bachelor. Dr. Mali and Dr. Christina dive into all these questions and more before the the finale of The Golden Bachelor airs in two weeks!

  • SUMMER SCHOOL: WHAT ARE YOU WATCHING?
    Jul 10 2023

    Dr. Mali and Dr. Rule convene to discuss what is on their summer watching lists and why. We do a Spring Semester round up of the shows we covered this past spring, and talk about what we are obsessed with. Vanderpump Rules? Alone? Real Housewives? Dr. Collins argues for the urgency of watching VPR as an exercise for all theater students, and Dr. Rule lectures us on the importance of recognizing indigenity in naturalist/survival shows like Survivor and Outcast.

  • 90 DAY FIANCÉ: THE OTHER WAY, SEASON 4, EPISODE 15&16
    May 26 2023

    Part II coverage on the weird finale or tell all mash up. Gabe refuses to accept cultural context, and Nicole manipulates the entire stage, and the Ms. Debbie's outfit steals the show. Dr. Rule and Dr. Mali continue to rant about Islamophobia and the shitty editing. Also, did you know what a Texas Margarita is? Dr. Rule, the native Texan, has to ask Dr. Mali. 😌

  • 90 DAY FIANCÉ: THE OTHER WAY, SEASON 4, EPISODE 14
    May 26 2023

    Sweaty basketball, absent partners, cheese puff towers, and improper editing. Dr. Rule and Dr. Mali remain confused at literally everyone on this show. Join us for a little Part I break of our sort-of, but maybe, but not really beginning of the finale. (It's not our fault.)

  • MARRIED AT FIRST SIGHT, SEASON 16, EPISODE 19 & 20
    May 22 2023

    Half prepping for D-Day and half D-Day, we watch most couples give their answers and those PAs finally get their spot on the shows as "boxing instructors" and "Guy at Bar #1 and #2." Dr. Mali and Dr. Rule continue ranting about the editing issues of this season and whether or not they're ethical! They also discuss respectability politics, how and why matches were made based on false notions of who is "smart," or "accomplished," and whether or not MAFS is worth it next season. Do you think it is?

  • 90 DAY FIANCÉ: THE OTHER WAY, SEASON 4, EPISODE 12 &13
    May 9 2023

    Oussama surprises us all, Jen plans a culturally-insensitive ambush, Danielle plays with fire, and Nicole plans the ultimate power move. Dr. Mali finds out she has the same tarot cards of Danielle, and it's not exactly something to be proud of. Dr. Rule continues to plan the podcast's vacation to Columbia. This is probably our biggest episode yet, which makes sense, because the season is getting dramatic and steamy!
