May 12, 2023IHGB #299 -- Summer Blockbuster Preview with Todd
Hello everyone!
Todd and I have big thoughts about upcoming blockbusters, and we discuss in length what makes us nervous about some of our choices to watch this summer. For example:
Is Harrison Ford too old to continue playing Indiana Jones?
Can I let go of the fact that I can’t stand underwater movies and just accept that Ariel is a mermaid, and that is where her story takes place?
Will I be confused while watching Guardians of the Galaxy: Volume 3?
How many more Mission Impossibles will Tom Cruise star in?
At what point in Barbie will I fall in love with Ryan Gosling all over again?
I’ll give you a hint: Immediately.
EPISODE NOTES:
Todd’s Picks
Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse
Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny
Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning Part 1
Oppenheimer
Lincee’s Picks
Guardians of the Galaxy: Volume 3
The Little Mermaid
Barbie

May 03, 2023IHGB #298 -- Taylor Swift's Eras Tour with Lara
Lara and I went to the Taylor Swift Eras Tour. We have lots of thoughts. About everything, including:
Choosing our outfits, stadium logistics, and general schedule.
How Taylor Swift performs full-out for more than three hours.
Which eras were above others? (read: they were all good).
What songs changed our lives, hearing sixty-thousand people sing?
It was epic. She made the whole place shimmer!

April 21, 2023 IHGB #297 -- It's a Love Story: Never Been Kissed with Mama
Hey everyone!
Continuing with the celebration of romantic comedies and my book, “It’s a Love Story,” I asked Mama to come and talk about a fun romcom my mom had never seen before — Never Been Kissed!
Join us as we turn back the hands of time to 1999 to discuss the charms of Drew Barrymore and the angst of high school clicks. Just listen to this storyline:
Josie Geller, a baby-faced junior copywriter at the Chicago Sun-Times, must pose as a student at her former high school to research contemporary teenage culture. With the help of her brother, Rob, Josie infiltrates the inner circle of the most popular clique on campus. But she hits a major snag in her investigation — not to mention her own failed love life — when she falls for her dreamy English teacher, Sam Coulson.
Never Been Kissed teaches us to be true to ourselves. It also teaches us that if we ever want to catch a man like Sam Coulson, we should go undercover immediately at the nearest high school.

Here’s the trailer to Never Been Kissed!

April 07, 2023 IHGB #295 -- It's a Love Story: Grease 2 with Some Guy in Austin
Hello everyone!
Today’s podcast is another in my “It’s a Love Story” series, sponsored by my book of the same name, which celebrates four years of existence this month. What in the world?
We’ve done 21 of these episodes, and traditionally, when we come up with a quintessential love story, something a little more mainstream than Grease 2 comes to mind. I imagine the majority of you haven’t even seen Grease 2, let alone knew it existed. I’d like to take this time to plead my case. Just listen to this synopsis:
Stephanie Zinone is the leader of Rydell High School’s Pink Ladies, a gang of girls who are counterparts of the school’s group of greasers called the T-Birds. Stephanie is tired of her relationship with top T-Bird Johnny Nogerelli, so she breaks up with him and quickly catches the eye of English exchange student Michael Carrington. Hoping to win her over, Michael tries to overcome his nerdy ways while holding off the jealous Johnny.
Grease 2 taught us that brainy students who know Shakespeare can also be cool riders. We learned that high school talent shows in the 60s had legitimate production value, and anyone can learn the ins and outs of reproduction through the magic of song and dance. It was fun AND educational.
EPISODE NOTES:
HERE is an oral history of how Grease 2 became a cult classic.

March 31, 2023IHGB #294 -- Bachelor Zach Finale: Decisions Are the Worst
Hello everyone!
We’ve made it through an entire season of ups and downs, and finally, we have the answer to who Zach chose at the end of his journey to find love. Some Guy in Austin and I break the finale down, discussing many important details, such as:
Was Ariel’s “After the Final Rose” dress inspired by Princess Leia or a Greek goddess?
What did Gabi put in her hair to create such a slick ponytail? And was she going for the girls in Robert Palmer’s “Addicted to Love” video? Or was her outfit just a metaphorical flipping of the bird to Zach in the form of a severe black get-up that screams, “I’m doing just fine. I know my dress appears that I’m prepping for heart surgery, but there’s no need to worry about me. Paradise, here I come!”
We also wonder if there’s such a thing as being too honest.
And finally, we debate if Zach is a schmuck.
PS: The answer is yes, he is a schmuck. A nice schmuck, but schmuck nonetheless.

March 24, 2023 IHGB #293 -- Bachelor Zach Fantasy Suites: No Secrets
Hello everyone,
It’s the week you’ve been waiting for. Fantasy suites. Forgo cards. Horizontal tango. It doesn’t matter what you call it, what matter is what happens behind closed doors.
Or what DOESN’T happen in Zach’s case.
Or should I say, what doesn’t happen, what DOES happen, and then what MAY happen?
Hold on. That’s wrong. Let me try this again…
What doesn’t happen, what did happen, and what happened when everyone heard it happened?
Are you thoroughly confused? Never fear! Some Guy in Austin and I have got you covered!

March 17, 2023IHGB #292 -- Bachelor Zach Hometowns
Hello everyone,
Well, Some Guy in Austin and I are ready to discuss hometown dates. In this episode, we unpack so many important questions, such as:
Is Gabi’s family the nicest of them all?
Who is wearing sunglasses inside like Ariel’s mom right now?
Line dancing – Yay or Nay?
And what says, “I love you” like making someone assemble an IKEA bookcase?
And who is excited about Charity being our next bachelorette?
I know this is a podcast, but I need you to know I’m raising my hand. Like a dork.

March 10, 2023IHGB #291 -- Bachelor Zach Episode 7: Hungary Eyes
Hello everyone,
I want you to get excited because Some Guy in Austin and I are really digging into episode seven of The Bachelor so you can properly prepare for next week’s hometown dates. In this episode, we tackle very important questions, such as:
Is Budapest the perfect place to fall in love? Or is it the perfect place to dash dreams by allowing a mentalist to interfere in the love lives of our cast?
Who put the FUN in funicular?
Public bath houses: Incredible? Or incredibly gross?
Did Kat shoot herself in the foot in this episode? Or is she still reeling from her decision to steal Zach away during Charity’s one-on-one?
And finally, should Jesse Palmer go ahead and adopt Zach into his family now? Or wait and announce that on After the Final Rose?
Zach Palmer has a nice ring to it, don’t you think?

March 03, 2023 IHGB #290 -- Bachelor Zach Episode 6: Witchy Woman
I’m about to say something you never thought you’d hear from me, Lincee Ray, who has been recapping this “darling” reality show for twenty years. Are you ready?
The Bachelor made me wiser. I actually gained knowledge while watching on Monday night. Going into the debacle, I would not have been able to point to Estonia on a world map. Now, if one day I’m asked, I can report that it is a hop, skip, and jump over the Baltic Sea from Finland.
This is big news, my friend. HUGE. Why?
Because I also learned that Estonia is the perfect place to fall in love. Where else can you find your future mate while dabbling in witchcraft, hanging out with nude old people in hot tubs, and participating in the age-old “wife-carrying” competition? Grab your passport, single people. We’re going to Eastern Europe!
