• Babies Have So Much Crap (Three Men and a Baby)
    Aug 16 2023

    This week we're talking about one of Rosey's childhood faves Three Men and a Baby. Spoiler alert, but Avery loved it too. It holds up and we get into why and how. Is it the charming combination of Tom Selleck, Ted Danson, and Michael Guttenberg? Is it the safe fatherly energy? Is it the fact that the woman ask for what they want? All of the above? We also discuss our reactions to Barbie, Avery's enjoyment of the Women's World Cup, and Rosey's new YouTube hole.

    In two weeks, we'll be back with Sister Act II.

  • Get This Out Of My Mouth (Lizzie McGuire)
    Aug 2 2023

    This week we’re revisiting the “ground breaking” Lizzie McGuire (the series, we didn’t get as far as the movie…) It brings up lots of memories of our own middle school shenanigans, as well as an extensive meditations on the post office. Fun times.

  • I Can't Take You Seriously In That Hat (The Devil Wears Prada)
    Jul 19 2023

    We're talking about The Devil Wears Prada. And oh, 2006 fashion, why? We dive into workplace politics, clothing we don't understand, and how crazy we'd be if we were as rich as Miranda. Also, Rosey spills some tea from her own crazy assistant days. Meanwhile, Avery watched a bunch of masochistic men and Rosey studied endlessly.

  • The Hair is High (Glow)
    Jun 7 2023

    This week we're talking a look at Glow and reveling in all the Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling. It's a really interesting look at gender expression, sexual identity, body image, racial stereotypes, and overall sense of self. We get a bit personal and go on an existential journey, but don't worry, it's not too heavy. Aside from Glow, Avery's been watching YouTube and Rosey has been madly studying Anatomy.

    In three weeks (we're taking a few breaks this summer), we'll be back and talking about the classic Mrs. Doubtfire.

  • Birds Are Good Stuff (Premonition/Bird Box)
    Apr 28 2023

    It's time for our final week of month of Sandra! We are sad to see her go. We went out with a bang, with two real downers, but fun to talk about movies: Premonition and Bird Box. Premonition has a 6% on rotten tomatoes, so you can guess some our thoughts, but we have fun breaking it all down.

    Next week we're diving deep into the recent release Daisy Jones And The Six, trying to make sense of an adaptation we didn't understand but many people seemed to love. We're going to try and figure out why.

    Where to watch:
    Bird Box—Netflix
    Premonition—Amazon
    Unstable—Netflix

  • Where's Your Stuff? (Two Weeks Notice & 28 Days)
    Apr 19 2023

    The Sandra stories continue. This week we're looking at Two Weeks Notice and 28 Days. They have nothing in common except Sandra and numbers in their titles. We talk about everything from toxic workplace "romance" to what really goes on in a rehab. We cheer and we jeer - these movies are conflicting. We've finished Daisy Jones and started Yellowjackets and we've got thoughts on both.

    Next week we'll finish up our month of Sandra on an odd downbeat with Premonition and Bird Box.

    Where to watch:
    28 Days - Netflix
    Two Weeks Notice - HBO
    Yellowjackets - Hulu/Showtime
    Daisy Jones & the Six - Amazon
