Episodes 1.08 & 1.09: "You Should Never Disappoint a Ghost"
In today's episode we cover PLL episodes 1.08, “Please Do Talk About Me When I’m Gone”, and 1.09, “The Perfect Storm.” We discuss the SATs, gender in high school and the show's horrible intersexism, Alison's gay literary references, people needing to eat food, completely unrelated musicals, and jewelry in coffins. We attempt to play High/Low and spend way too much time trying to remember future plot points. We hope you find this charming and not annoying.
Episode Transcript: Read it on Buzzsprout!
Chickpea Recipe: We’re not writing it up because we discuss it in the episode and it’s incredibly simple! Just, hot tip: don’t microwave cans.
Fashion Analysis: We were lukewarm on outfits overall, and also disagreed a bit, but here are our best and worst!
Cameron Gets Academic On Us:
- CJ Pascoe’s book, Dude, You’re a Fag
- Da’Shaun Harrison talking about “the residue” in the context of thin people and fatphobia
- They also have an awesome book, Belly of the Beast, and are part of the amazing podcast Unsolicited: Fatties Talk Back!
Things We Referenced Actually Related to PLL:
- Ravenswood! The best PLL spin off
- Vivian Darkbloom - Ali’s alter ego in a brown wig
- Deepa didn’t have real literary analysis in this episode, so Deepa will just mention here that Vivian Darkbloom is an anagram of “Vladimir Nabokov”, lol
- Glee actors who show up in PLL:
- Oliver Kieran-Jones, who plays Adam on Glee (Kurt’s New York boyfriend) and Colin on PLL (the guy Spencer sleeps with once in London)
- Adam Lambert (does he even need introduction?), who plays Starchild on Glee and himself in the best PLL episode of all time
Things We Referenced Completely Unrelated to PLL:
- How everyone confides in the Taylors in Friday Night Lights and it’s not weird, it’s just weird when it’s Ezra
- How we constantly get the musicals Be More Chill and Dear Evan Hansen mixed up
- Someone thinks that Be More Chill is just Dear Evan Hansen on helium!
- And some thoughts on gender in both musicals
