May 26, 2022Throne of Glass Series: It's Time to End ThisWe're finally finishing our coverage of Sarah J Maas's 'Throne of Glass' book series! This is the final episode of 4 on the last book in the series, 'Kingdom of Ash.' We discuss how difficult things have been for Aedion (though he was too harsh on Lysandra), our issue with being pandered to at the end, why Fleetfoot would probably be better off with Evangeline, Dorian's Starlording at the end, and how perfect Asterin's story turned out. Plus, we deserve bonus points for discussing the fate of The Thirteen without losing it....and Nesryn's there too....more1h 34minPlay
April 20, 2022Kingdom of Ash, Part 3/4: Triple-Knob-CrossThis is part 3 of 4 for our review of "Kingdom of Ash," the last novel in Sarah J. Maas's book series "Throne of Glass."We talk about Dorian infiltrating Morath and possibly getting freaky with a Valg queen (specifically Maeve), Elide delivering a very well-deserved punishment to Uncle Vernon, the need for more sexy details about how Elide and Lorcan break the castle, and an awesome cameo by characters from another awesome book series by Maas; Jane posits the question of whether or not Dorian, Maeve, and Erawan sustained brain damage between books; Linda starts creating sexy fan-fic (is it technically slash fic?); and everyone get's triple-crossed, but it's okay because Jane knows that Linda knows that Jane knows about it.Please, share your thoughts with us on Twitter: @broomflicks...more1h 17minPlay
April 06, 2022Kingdom of Ash Part 2: Never Go Full ChaolWe're continuing with Part 2 of what will probably be a 4-part episode covering the final book in the 'Throne of Glass' series, 'Kingdom of Ash'. In this episode, we discuss Manon, Queen of the Witches; Dorian, who's just way too powerful; Lysandra, Aedion; and (briefly) the fierce, badass b, Kaltain.I know we covered Lorcan in the previous episode, but we enjoyed creating a visual of a disastrous makeover for him. Jane wonders if anyone still identifies as Emo (let us know on Twitter @broomflicks) and finally reveals her child's name - it's pronounced 'GLAY-NUSS CROTCH-IN'. Linda discusses 'wild, savage, Pomeranian' sex - like the sex Manon and Dorian have.If you have any Throne of Glass fanart, PLEASE share via email at [email protected] or on Twitter....more1h 37minPlay
March 23, 2022Kingdom of Ash: There Will Be BloodYup, we're doing this. We are covering the last book in the 'Throne of Glass' series, 'Kingdom of Ash.' Get comfortable cuz it's probably going to be a 4-part series. There is just so much to unpack.We covered Aelin; Rowan; Lorcan (who doesn't care); The Beautiful Kitty-Man, Gavriel; Elide (who's always on her cycle); Fenrys (who will NOT fetch, thank you); Cairn (#NotAllKarens); Maeve (#MaeveIsMeToo??); everyone's favorite emo moron, Chaol; and Yrene (so totally not pronounced like 'Urine').Linda wonders if Chaol felt Yrene's cramps and fatigue once a month and why there's so much focus on Elide's menstrual cycle.Jane wonders if Rowan's dreams of having litters of children match Aelin's wishes and points out the importance of making time to loot expensive and shiny jewelry & armor (make some YOU loot time).Promo for our new pod obsession, The Marvelous Madames!themarvelousmadames.comhttps://link.chtbl.com/iQKJDYanTwitter Instagram...more1h 39minPlay
March 02, 2022CAoSabrina, S2E4: The Well-Hung KnobLinda and Jane cover episode 4 of season 2, "Doctor Cerberus's House of Horror," which turned out to be more like "The Chilling Filler Episode of Sabrina."Linda covers the magic of director Alex Garcia Lopez (seriously, check out 'Misfits' right after this), Jane questions the dubious lessons from the tarot readings, and they both put out a call to action for English majors.Let us know on Twitter (@Broomflicks) if you spot any bunnies in the episode!...more1h 24minPlay
February 23, 2022CAoSabrina, S2E3: Lupercalia Cherry TaggingSo...this episode was recorded mid-January, when Linda was scrambling to finish her degree program. Now, she's officially graduated and there will never be a problem again - she's creating a rainbow of knobs as proof of this promise. Also, she's working on not saying 'um' and 'like' as much. Sorry!This episode was SOOOOO jam-packed, but we managed to keep recording under two-hours. Join us as we discuss the real history of Lupercalia, 'First'-tagging someone's virginity, the misfortunes of a man named 'Melvin', awesome sex-ed pop-up books, Linda's hatred of plus-sized clothes with animal print, Lilith's potential love connection, realistic high school dancing, and the AMAZING Salli Richardson-Whitfield (the director of this episode).Meet us at the mossy stump....more1h 21minPlay
February 04, 2022CAoSabrina, S2E2: The Passion of the KnobOkay, so...Linda was so super-focused on her schoolwork that she forgot to send our editor, Donnie, her audio file for this episode and didn't even realize that it was missing. SO, call this one the lost episode. It was supposed to be released before the episode on 'The Legend of the Christmas Witch' in December. Please, just pretend it was, accept her apologies, and know that she has completed the program and can now focus on the podcast, again.In this episode, we cover the second episode of the second season of 'The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina,' The Passion of Sabrina Spellman. Linda shares how awesome Christina Ham (one of the writers) is and Jane sparks a discussion on how accurate the episode was in regards to high school acting (#SatanWasRight) and calls for an Emmy award for Abigail Cowen ('Dorcas').If Satan brings beer to someone else's house, what brand/type do you think it would be?

January 01, 2022Christmas Witch Part 2: Don't Grab Her by the WasteThanks for returning for the conclusion of our coverage of 'The Legend of the Christmas Witch'!In this episode, we discuss what makes the director, Michele Soavi, a filmmaking legend (hint: it's not what you're thinking...unless, you're thinking, 'Wait, didn't Soavi direct a lot of awesome horror movies?' In that case, it's exactly what you're thinking. Carry on.)Jane emphasizes the importance of proper spelling in closed captioning, Linda calls for the 'Dino Bike' cut, and we both discuss what could have saved this movie. Also, we discuss the hidden storyline, wherein Jesse/Giuseppe has been training his whole (albeit short) life to determine the difference in smells of poisons and sedatives; building-up a resistance to the most common forms of poison; and learning to MacGyver himself out of danger.Have a very merry Epiphany Eve!...more58minPlay
January 01, 2022The Legend of the Christmas Witch Part 1: Swanky Knob MusicWe celebrated the holidays by watching Michele Soavi's "The Legend of the Christmas Witch" (aka "La Befana Vien di Notte") from 2018.The movie is about La Befana, who Jane covered in 'Minisode 3: La Befana and Lil BUB', who spends her days as the school teacher, Paola. When a child whose present arrived late, grows into a toy making evil genius and haves her kidnapped, Paolo's students and her wannabe-fiancé go on a mission to save her.Featuring racial stereotypes, tired 80's movie tropes, and legit bangers, we #SewerSibs had a lot to talk about. In this first part, we talk more about the movie, discuss the differences between the subbed and dubbed version, and give a little history lesson on Italian-Schools (specifically, the Italian dunce cap).Check out part 2 for discussion on the legendary director, Michele Soavi....more1h 1minPlay
