Girl, We Need To Talk!

GWNTT’ers!!!

This week, Aleta tried to pick a light movie. Epic fail. Though set in the Spring/Summer in the beautiful Athens, Georgia, The Spectacular Now dives into the deep topics of alcoholism, addictive personalities, facing the very human side of your parents, and coming of age.

Aleta and Krystle dish about their love of Miles Teller. They discuss Athens, and how both want to visit. And even talk about how The Spectacular Now was Roger Ebert’s last awarded 4-star film and his moving review of the film.

As always, the girls go off on tangents. This week’s include: KW talking about the dramatic performance of football, her 6 degrees of separation from John Green and Miles Teller, and even being on stage with and kissing Elliott Morgan. Aleta tells of her first visit to Athens and seeing the oh-so-steamy Theo James!

Give it a listen, won't you?!

GWNTTers....

You know how we sometimes warn you that we have an F word episode?....This week's podcast episode is NO EXCEPTION!

Join us as Aleta goes through the ins and outs of the Adnan Syed case, an individual that was accused and convicted in the 1999 disappearance and murder of Hae Min Lee, his ex-girlfriend and fellow classmate.

Guys, buckle up, because it's a whirlwind of hearsay, leading interviews, and fitting the crime to the chosen guy.--All of this despite the fact that there is no physical evidence and the case is based around the testimony of ONE man.

Please come along with us as we take a deep dive into this case. Yes, we are still out on our "Truth is more terrible than fiction" tour, but this case is one you need to hear about, as Adnan is still, STILL in prison.

Girl, We Need to Talk...about the early 2000s and how things can go crazy wrong in court cases...

In this week's ep, Krystle and Aleta discuss the ins and outs of the 2003-2004 trial of Scott Peterson, who was accused and later convicted of murdering his wife Laci, and their unborn son.

We talk about how we didn't remember much from the case when it was going on, and how the media got a hold of the sensational topic and ran amuck- to the extent where we were all fooled as to just how guilty Scott really appeared.

If you want to hear our take, listen in- you may learn a thing or too, like we did- about how twisted and turned things can get when people aren't paying attention to the facts.

It's not your usual bout of fiction from us gals, but these are things we feel are worth discussing in an episode (or two).

So join us, won't you-

GWNTTers- Are ya ready to be a little freaked out, but very entertained?

Join us this week, as Krystle dishes to Aleta details and nuances from The Stand- a book that is shaping up to be one of her favorites, since of course, Stephen King is one of her favorite authors.

If you like post-apocalyptic tales of good vs evil, trust us, this will be your jam~just minus the eeriness that is reading about a major super flu wiping out the population while in a global pandemic...

We also chat about the 1994 TV mini-series based on the novel, as well as the reboot from last year (again, is it a coincidence that it came out in 2020??

And can we just stop with all of these streaming services already? We're looking at you Discovery Plus and CBS All Access!

Ya'll...we have some strong opinions about this one!~

We had to do it, we owed it to our teenage selves and to Britney.

In this week's episode, we cover The New York Times' Framing Britney Spears- there was just too much to leave unsaid!

Join us as Aleta makes some excellent points about why you really need to be concerned and how it is not just about Britney Spears (but it is) but it's not- how scary a conservatorship can get and the legal implications of it all. She also provides important context as we discuss the way society views our young girls and the recent interview Crime Junkie posted with advocate and survivor, Elizabeth Smart.

We cannot say enough about how the media paints a one sided picture for the masses or how everyone should have just left Britney alone!

So come along and get angry! Get fired up with us as we discuss!

Hey Y'all, Gather 'Round!!

This week's episode is all about catching up on what we've been listening to, reading, & watching lately...

AND the cozy Hannah Swensen mystery series by Joanne Fluke!!

Join us as we discuss some compelling True Crime episodes and podcasts that we've been listening to, it may be old cases, but with new and interesting takes-- And, y'all, we're obsessed with The Obsessed Network, not gonna lie.

Aleta dishes about the Hannah Swensen series and how each book always has a nice, tidy ending. Which is comforting to us since the real world of true crime is not always so! Aleta also gives some fascinating details about Joanne Fluke's incredible career.

We also talk geography, and more specifically, about Minnesota: where the series is set and Aleta's new travel destination (when it is safe, of course). Scouty-dog makes his normal, annoying appearance, as always.

So come along and give us a listen as we ring in the new month!

Join us, won’t you, as Aleta discusses the Netflix hit series Outer Banks as we try to weather our way through this crappy, gross, winter season.

Aleta’s vacation mis-adventures (Always ending up on a dark street in the middle of the night…always). Some good info on filming locations, and of course, an appearance by Scout.

We want to share with you! So come listen! Listen to us go off on kids and teenagers, dish on the hidden castle in North Carolina, and let’s hold hands as we close out this crappy February and move on to March!
