Completely Unqualified

The time has come, folks. We're so sad to see this amazing podcast go, but Episode Fifty-Two - The Completely Unqualified Finale - is here. Listen to this quick, final episode now for details on our podcast statistics throughout the past year, as well as updates to come regarding episode and social media take-down. Randi and Lindsey reflect on some of their favorite podcast moments and movies & give their immense thanks to everyone that tuned in throughout this year. We love you all. So, so much. Thank you again for a wonderful year (officially a year tomorrow!!) of film reviews and lots of laughs. For the last time, we're signing off. And we are...completely unqualified.

Episode Fifty-One is here, and sadly, you know what that means...it's the last film review episode of Completely Unqualified with Lindsey Mead and Randi DeShone. We are going to miss talking about movies with you all every Wednesday. It's so bittersweet to be releasing this to our friends, family, and fans today, but we are SO grateful to EVERYONE that has tuned in to this makeshift podcast over the course of the year. We appreciate you, we love you, and we THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts. So, for the Completely UNQ film review finale and last movie in the Harry Potter saga, we discussed Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 2 (2011) on Episode Fifty-One. The episode title, as always, will make sense once you listen! Plenty of our usual laughs, fun facts, and HP simping happens throughout our final show.

Next week, our *final* final episode will be published, marking a year (one day early) of Completely Unqualified, as well as its official conclusion. If you're a sponsor, please be sure to cancel your sponsorship so we don't keep charging you as our episodes remain available on streaming services, but without us putting out any new content. On Episode Fifty-Two we discuss necessary podcast-related and life-related updates, give our thanks, and conclude our comedic film review podcast in typical Randi and Lindsey fashion. You won't want to miss it. xoxo. And we are...completely unqualified!

We made it to Episode Fifty! Thank you to all of our wonderful listeners who got to this point with us!! And, we are lucky enough this week to be joined by one of Lindsey's best friends, Bridget Dickens. Randi had a busy week, so lifelong HP fan and dear law school pal, "Bag," joins Completely UNQ to discuss Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 1 (2010). Lindsey and Bridget talk about angsty Ron, Bridget's fear of "those little piggy people" (AKA the Dursleys), and the unfortunateness of being a third wheel. We apologize for the microphone feedback and bumping if you hear it on this episode - due to the last-minute fill-in for Randi, we had to make do with one mic! We hope you enjoy!!

Next week, it's our last Completely Unqualified movie review episode. We're finishing out the review-section of the podcast and the Harry Potter saga with the final installment in the series: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 2 (2011). Randi and Lindsey will be back for one final "goodbye" episode the day before the year anniversary of the podcast!! We can't wait to share our final thoughts on our favorite franchise in the world with you all on Wednesday. And we are...completely unqualified!

Hey everyone! Only two more movie-review episodes left of Completely Unqualified after this one - crazy to think about. This Wednesday, we watched Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (2009). The Completely UNQ gals talk about Randi's social work analysis of Draco, their favorite Harry Potter insults, and their favorite spells in the HP series on this quick episode. Per usual, there was too much we had to do and too little time to really dive into this episode. As a summary, just know Lindsey continues to mourn the loss of Dumbledore and Randi thinks he's a terrible character. Sigh.

Next week, keeping up with the HP saga, we're watching Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 1 (2010). Get your tissues ready, there's only more death and sadness to come!! We are so grateful you all have stuck with us for almost a whole year now - 49 episodes full. Thanks again for your continuous support, your listenership, and your movie recommendations that have made this podcast what it is. We love you! And we are...completely unqualified!

Yes, it's true...somehow we manage to talk about chicken fillets AND fiddles on an episode dedicated to Harry Potter. Happy Wednesday, Completely UNQ friends and fans! Randi and Lindsey discussed Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (2007) this week! The Completely Unqualified gals talk about the dark theme of depression in the fifth installment of the series, as well as their hate for Delores Umbridge and the monumental loss of Sirius (AKA "Daddy Black"). Check it out before it's gone, as you know Completely UNQ will be coming to a close in a little under a month. We will miss you all so much (as well as giving our unqualified opinions about movies each week).

Next week, following the Harry Potter series chronologically, we are reviewing Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (2009). Watch the entire HP series on HBO Max if you want to keep up with us each Wednesday, and get ready to round out this incredible saga with us in the coming weeks! And we are...completely unqualified!

Welcome back to your normally-scheduled Wednesday program. We're your hosts, Randi and Lindsey, bringing you Episode Forty-Seven! This week, we watched Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (2005). This is one of Randi's favorite films in the franchise and one of Lindsey's least favorites, so the contrast is striking on this episode! Listen to the Completely Unqualified gals discuss Robert Pattinson (per usual), angsty teen behavior, and the cinematic score in HP4! You won't want to miss it.

Next week, we're obviously sticking with our Harry Potter saga theme and watching Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (2007). We have had so much fun talking about our favorite movie series with you all, and we're going to miss Completely UNQ so much once this is all over. Make sure you follow our social media while you can for updates on our show and the HP series as we go! Also, be sure to listen to any past Completely Unqualified episodes you may have missed before they're gone! xoxo. And we are...completely unqualified!

WE ARE BACK! Completely Unqualified has never had to take a week off, but last week, as you all know due to the lack of an episode (and on Completely UNQ's social media (@completelyUNQ on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram), Lindsey messed up the editing process by deleting our original Part Two of Episode Forty-Six. Today, you get half of our original episode and half of a week-delayed recorded version of Episode Forty-Six! So, so sorry, but we hope you laugh and enjoy anyway. We covered Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (2004) on "When You Give a Dementor a Zoloft." We also announced that Completely UNQ will be coming to an end here shortly. Though it is extremely unfortunate and Randi & Lindsey will miss this pod so much, their adult lives are rushing at them top-speed (as well as school and work and the attempt to maintain a social life), so this is truly for the best. Don't worry, though, we are finishing HP! This episode in particular was packed full of craziness, wild tangents, and updates for our podcast, so you won't want to miss it! We apologize for the redundancy due to the week gap!!

Next week, keeping with our Harry Potter theme, we are watching Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (2005). Stay tuned, it will arrive to you timely (if all goes according to plan), and relish in these last few episodes of Completely Unqualified with us! xoxo. And we are...completely unqualified! 

It's another great Wednesday here at Completely UNQ! We're happy to welcome back Lindsey's mom, Tracey, on Episode Forty-Five while Randi was off enjoying her Labor Day weekend. For today's episode, we watched Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (2002). Lindsey and her mom talked about their favorite elements in HP2, the high caliber acting in this film series, and the need to boycott any movie involving animal death (or petrification or shaving). It's an episode full of chaos and the Mead ladies talking over one another, so you won't want to miss it. Apologies for the lower-quality audio due to Zooming Lindsey's mom in for the episode last minute.

Next week, keeping in chronological order with the Harry Potter saga, we're watching Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (2004). We can't wait to keep reviewing this series with you all every Wednesday on Completely Unqualified. Follow us on social media - @completelyUNQ on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram - for all things HP/Completely UNQ related. And we are...completely unqualified!

Let the magic begin!! This Wednesday, we are so happy (even though we sound exhausted in this episode - sorry!) to bring you the first review in our eight-part series surrounding the Harry Potter saga. We reviewed Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's (Philosopher's) Stone (2001). Randi and Lindsey have been lifelong fans of the franchise, so we look forward to revisiting our home - Hogwarts. Listen to Lindsey and Randi talk about Professor MaGongagill, magic capers, and what they would see in the Mirror of Erised on Episode Forty-Four.

Next week, join us as we review Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (2002). The first three Harry Potter movies are free to watch on Peacock TV right now, so re-watch them with us (because we are presuming you've seen them all like the rest of the world at least once before). They're not as "indie" as we may have portrayed on this episode. And, as always, make sure to follow us on our social media to stay up-to-date on all things Wizarding World for the next couple of weeks - @completelyUNQ on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. And we are...completely (almost qualified when it comes to HP, but not quite) unqualified!

Howdy, everyone! Happy Wednesday. This might be "LEEETERLY" one of Lindsey and Randi's favorite movies to talk about, even if the entire episode isn't coherent. You know how it is on Completely Unqualified by now. But, this week, thanks to Connor's recommendation from "I Love It Here, I Hate It Here" podcast, we watched Moonlight (2016). Everybody say thank you, Barry Jenkins. Randi and Lindsey talked about the cinematography and revolutionary filmmaking decisions the cast and crew made to bring this masterpiece of a movie to life. Make sure you watch this one, folks.

Thanks to your voting in our poll on social media, we can officially announce what film series we're watching for the next few weeks on Completely UNQ!! You decided on...the Harry Potter saga! We can't wait to watch these movies with you all. Lindsey and Randi have been lifelong fans of the franchise, so if we're qualified on any movie series, it's this one. We have read the material, ladies and gents. So, join us next week by watching Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (2001) and keeping up to date on our social media by following us on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram (@completelyUNQ). You can recommend a stand-alone film or film series to our email - [email protected] - at any time, as well. And we are...completely unqualified!
