Cherish or Perish

In this inexplicably beloved episode, our intrepid hosts ask that you please: share your Showtime account info with them, stop the woman on woman hate, and figure out what Nora Ephron’s deal is! Also, a deep dive into one of Hollywood’s favorite cliches: dead wives in white sundresses! 

In this bloody and confusing episode, Desirae loves bad girls, Amanda spoils 1899 (literally, skip 13:45-17:45 to avoid spoilers for the show ‘1899’), vampire narratives form a foundation for worker unionization, and it’s the final episode of the 2022 Halloween Horror Extravaganza- Christmas Edition!

Halloween may be in the rear view mirror much like a murderous gargoyle in an old truck, but the Extravaganza will go on!  In this heavily researched episode, Amanda and Desirae tell Hugh Laurie to watch out for creeps, get to the source of public school budget woes, experience some technical difficulties, and celebrate a hero of the service industry! 

In this classy episode, Amanda makes a bold pronouncement and Desirae knows what men want: bears talking to dogs. Plus: offensive cameos, shilling for corporations, and a very haunting tune!

In this tonally confusing episode, Amanda has a flashback, Desirae knows where to find teen action, Brittney Murphy is unhinged, Reese Witherspoon is evolving, and romance is dead. PLUS! More frightening kissing, fraught racial reckonings, and we forgot how the movie ends! Movie chat starts around 10:30

In this Covid positive episode, Desirae and Amanda are talking the best Spice Girls and way to watch TV, service industry entitlements to public fornication, more Disney junk, and potato salad- America’s scourge! PLUS The Circle is back and so is LIGHTNING ROUND!

In this career-minded episode, the Cherishlings write a hit romantic comedy, Amanda does a masterful impression, Desirae reveals her interesting cleaning technique, and special guest Jess coins a delightfully alliterative but sadly necessary catchphrase. Plus! Fashion montages, cinematography tips, and friendship!

On this caper of an episode we’re talking Brits, fish, Euphoria, bad decisions, and so much more! Plus Desirae doesn’t remember plots, Amanda doesn’t remember anything, and our website is going away!  Be sure to follow us on IG @cherishorperishpod and wherever you get your podcasts!

On this sticky, clicky episode, Amanda and Desirae are risk assessing, discussing international lifestyles, deciding whether they should become a Yellowjackets podcast, and play a round of “Mira Sorvino, Mena Suvari, Brittany Murphy or Natasha Lyonne?”!

We're back baby! Desirae and Amanda kick off Season 3 of Cherish or Perish with Y2K classic Miss Congeniality! Feminism is defined, Sandy's back, wrinkles are embossed, napkins get in the mix, it's a madness- PLUS! Get out of the house!
