Blondes With Glasses!

On this week's pod, your bespectacled hosts delve into the world of game shows. We discuss the greats (Jeopardy!) and the ones we miss the most (Figure It Out!!!!!!) as well as why game shows have such sticking power. We also highlight some of the best games shows from abroad and a few disastrous ones that we love to loathe. And, as always, we finish with recommendations for each other.

This week is a tough one. We knew we had to discuss the shooting in Orlando and how it has affected both us and the whole LGBT community. It ended up as a form of catharsis to talk through our feelings and we hope listening to us can help you, too. Remember, be kind to each other. Love is love is love.

This week's podcast is all about the tropes surrounding heroes, villains, and those that are neither. We discuss redemption arcs, protagonists we can't love, and villains we'll never forgive. We also, somehow, manage to discuss both Parks and Recreation AND Brooklyn 99. Basically, we nailed it! And, as always, we finish with recommendations for each other.

Another episode recorded together! Becca had some car trouble and was "forced" to stay an extra day or two. So, we decided to tackle the behemoth known as Social Media. From the sites we know and love to the ones that make us wary, we try to get to the bottom of why we have such strong feelings about sites we may never use (Snapchat...)And, as always, we finish with recommendations for each other.

We're back in the same room for the first time in forever (Frozen reference!) and discussing all things Disney. From the DCOM marathon that's opening the floodgates of nostalgia to the threat of monopolizing our favorite franchises (ABC, Marvel, Pixar...) under the same gigantic umbrella - we discuss why we can't stop loving all things Disney. But, we do spend some time figuring out how the House of Mouse could use their billions to please us even more - A DCOM BOX SET PLEASE! and #GiveElsaAGirlfriend - And, as always, we finish with recommendations for each other.

Shannon is moving back to the US! So, we decided to discuss long-distance relationships of all kinds. We touch on how it affected us as friends and podcasters, as well as how they best portray it on TV. (Hint: The answer is always Parks and Rec.) So, join us for one last hoorah on this intercontinental pod before we're all East Coast, all the time! And, as always, we finish with recommendations for each other.

This week is a (mildly spoiler-y) discussion about Captain America: Civil War, the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and the endless debate that superhero films create for nerds around the world. We try to draw a line between what is required viewing (not Ant-Man, apparently) and which spin-offs and future films we can just forget about. We also admit our double standards and fawn over Black Panther, our new fav. And, as always, we finish with recommendations for each other.

Guess what, listeners? It's time for a reboot!!!!! We had a listener suggestion this week to reboot The Parent Trap (which is a brilliant idea - we totally need more suggestions from you at home!) and it spun out of control. So, not only do we reboot this amazing story to include Quvenzhané Wallis as the twins, Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson as the dad and Uzo Aduba as the mom, we ALSO manage to pick apart how HORRIBLE the titular parents of this film really are! Honestly, try not to think about it too much because it can really change your feelings on this childhood classic. So, take a listen if you want to know how we update this film for our modern times and how we manage to fix all the parental nonsense from the first film(s). And, as always, we finish with recommendations for each other!

Listeners, this week we take on the political realm because 2016 is shaping up to be a joke, both in reality and on television. We discuss political satire, the specialness of Samantha Bee, political dramas that stray too far into the dark side, and the few hopeful shows out there that make us excited about the future. And, as always, we finish with recommendations for each other.

Listeners, we have finally taken a break from television! It's a miracle!!! This week we've taken on books and the printed word. We cover the merits and pitfalls of e-readers, assigned reading from our school days, movie adaptations, and audiobooks. We also pick out some of our favorites that we deem "Required Reading." And, as always, we finish with recommendations for each other.
