Friday Night Gab Shack

Oops! we are back from accidental break going into the big rivalry game. Coach Taylor hems and haws (again) before caving to town pressure (again). Must Love Matt saves the day (also again), Lyla remains the worst but Tim's stock is rising, and lets please give Tyra something more to do?

What’s up with this episode title? A little bit of a filler between games again as we go through “rivalry week” aka school sanctioned vandalism and property damage. Coach Taylor also scores no points (ha!) with us keeping a 100 person party from Tammy, Matt continues to go through it, and Tim lurks in Lyla’s room.

Well the game did not go well, and the team is in shambles. Coach Taylor is being put through the wringer (again) by literally everyone in town. Jason finally loses it on annoying Lyla and her toxic hope, and we get the most uncomfortable kiss of all time. Oh and poor Matt is being replaced?? This can't end well.

We deal with the fallout of Jason's injury, Matt is struggling with his new status, and Coach Taylor silently freaks out while fielding unsolicited commentary from every random that crosses his path. V concerned about the outcome of game two, if only for Matt's mental health.

We're baaaack to teen high school dramas coming to you from Dillon, Texas. Wow this football stuff is pretty important down there huh? Do you think God loves football but also finds Coach Taylor's daughter as annoying as we do? When does Tim Riggins become unimpeachable? Let's go!

Recapping and reviewing all timer The Lion King. Special guest Timmy Vernon helps us break it all down in pretty minute detail (not sorry). Is this movie in everyone's Disney top five all time? (yes). Does this pod run longer than the run time of this movie? (also yes). Has anyone really recovered from the stampede scene 30 years later? (absolutely not). Stay until the end of our ramblings and also rewatch this asap because its great.

Recapping and reviewing gen alpha (yikes) favorite Moanaaa. Returning champion Adam helps us break down the good, the bad, and the dangers of over-harvesting coconuts and the potential contributions to climate change. Is this movie mainly targeted to those born after 2010? (yes). Does it still find a way to elicit tears from some of us? (also, yes).  What is the minimum number of animal sidekicks to be an official Disney princesses? (two). Join us - even though we'd rather be shinyyyy!

Recapping and reviewing the 2000 cult classic The Emperor's New Groove. No idea if everyone loves this movie as much as we do or as much as new guest start Maddie loves Kronk. Did we watch this late into our teens? (yes). Is Sting somehow involved? (also, yes). What does the empire have against old people? (hard to say). Join us as we try our hardest to capture the awesomeness that is this movie (its really funny we swear!)

Recapping and reviewing the 1989 classic The Little Mermaid. We are back baby with our season 3 (though not The OC's for obvious reasons), switching tacks to review some of the old greats! Not surprising since nostalgia is one of the greatest forces behind this pod after all. Is this still good after all these years? (yes). Is Ariel kind of a brat? (also, yes). What is Ursula's problem? (it's murky). Join us on our latest journey!

Recapping episode 24 of season 2 of The O.C.. It's a family affair as cousin Natalie joins us for the JAM PACKED season 2 finale (and our farewell to this series as we all know it only goes downhill from here). Kelly Rowan and Peter Gallagher earn their Emmy noms as we watch Kirsten finally hit rock bottom in the aftermath of Caleb's demise. Ryan finally (???) puts the puzzle together about what happened with Trey and Marissa (actually, thank you Summer) and their confrontation leads to one of the most iconic uses of music in TV history, but not before the most random drug deal in TV history takes place (Jess, ugh). Jimmy (cringe / shiver / vomit / etc) and Hailey (hit the snooze button) also return. Stick around to find out what series we tackle (likely only the first two seasons of) next!!
