96 Greers

In 1999, beloved actress Natasha Lyonne teamed up with director Jamie Babbitt to make the queer cult classic But I'm a Cheerleader.  In 2015, Lyonne and Babbitt teamed up again for the indie caper Addicted to Fresno, bringing along with them Judy Greer.  And a rockabilly pet cemetery.  And a bin full of jiggly purple dildos.  Reg and Patrick discuss the problematic implications of incarceration as a plot point, when mean-spirited comedy works (and when it doesn't), and put their punny title-creating skills to the test!

Before Guardians of the Galaxy... before the Office... James Gunn and Jenna Fischer teamed up for a no-budget comedy that satirizes celebrity charity endeavors in an #epic edgy comedy style that only the mid-00's could bring you.  It may shock you to learn that James Gunn isn't the only JG in the cast!

Judy Greer meets Totoro! 

Okay, not exactly, but she was part of the English dub cast of Studio Ghibli's The Cat Returns, a fantasy spin-off of their 90s slice of life film Whisper of the Heart.  Reg and Patrick talk about fatphobia on film, get a little Jungian, and create fursonas.

Not quite mumblecore, not quite Dogme 95, In Memory of My Father definitely has Judy Greer in the cast.  Reg and Patrick bravely soldier forth in their completionist goal with this indie dramedy about a film producer's family reacting-- or not-- to his death.

In the nadir of winter, Reg and Patrick take a 115 minute trip to a certain archipelago with The Descendants, a 2011 dramedy that got a lot of Oscar buzz and a lot of positive critical reactions for Judy Greer.  Find out if our intrepid hosts agree with the people who are paid a lot of money to judge this kind of thing.

Patrick and Reg battle head colds to discuss Good Boy, a selection from the Hulu/Blumhouse anthology horror series Into the Dark starring Judy Greer as a malicious dog mommy. 

Patrick and Reg explore the brave new frontiers (kind of) with turn of the century sci-fi comedy What Planet Are You From?, directed by the legendary Mike Nichols, starring Gary Shandling and featuring a JG powerhouse trifecta: John Goodman, Janeane Garofalo and... you know who.  We had the professional integrity to record on an alien spacecraft, so the prominent room tone is actually the ship's warp core.

Patrick & Reg kick off the podcast with the 2017 oddity Pottersville. You know, the one where Michael Shannon tries to pull off a Bigfoot hoax, Judy Greer has a crush on him for some reason, and Christina Hendricks is a furry?
