April 26, 2018 IHGB #49 -- Love Triangles
Today’s episode is one that many of you have requested: LOVE TRIANGLES!
I wrangled my roommate Lara into helping me out with this one and since we were so controversial in our romance movie podcast, I have no doubt y’all will have thoughts on these particular trios.
Fair warning: THERE WILL BE SPOILERS.
We discuss the qualities that make a compelling trio, famous love triangles in pop culture, and we have a healthy conversation debating vampires verses werewolves.
If I’ve said it once, I’ve said it a thousand times…real men don’t sparkle.
LARA’S PICKS:
The Good Wife
Hunger Games
My Best Friend’s Wedding
MY PICKS:
The Vampire Diaries
Twilight Saga
The Notebook

April 19, 2018 IHGB #48 -- Duets
Some Guy in Austin is back! And we are excited to share our favorite duets.
Note: A duet is different from a duo. We explain this in the opening of the show. The Judds? Duo. “That Boy is Mine” by Brandy and Monica? Duet. See the difference?
I think I should also point out that my duets are way better than SGIA’s. It’s my opinion, but it’s true.
EPISODE NOTES:
“Say, Say, Say”
“Next Time I Fall In Love”
“We’re Going to Hold On”
“Jackson”
“After the Fire is Gone”
“Endless Love”
Tangent: Chandler and Phoebe’s version of “Endless Love”
“To All the Girls I’ve Loved Before”
“Does He Love You”

My first Cinderella experience: Disney’s Cinderella
The wonder that is Brandy’s version. HELLO WHITNEY!

April 05, 2018 IHGB #46 -- Dancing in Movies
I understand that this podcast title may be confusing. Let me explain:
When listener Kara suggested this topic, I was validated because I’ve been circling it for a while. However I didn’t just want to do dance movies because most of my favorite dance movies are musicals. And I already did a podcast on musicals. (It was wonderful, by the way. You should listen!)
But in Kara’s email to me, she phrased her suggestion as “dance scenes in movies.”
It all clicked. I sashayed over to my phone, called my sister, and we had a solid list in five minutes. Some are dance movies, some are musicals, and others are just fun dance scenes from movies. Brilliant! My brain no longer hurts! Thank you Kara!
Fair warning: We are unconventional and old. That’s code for WISE. Watch these dance movies and forever be changed!
EPISODE NOTES:
Jamie’s picks:
“Time Warp” — Rocky Horror Picture Show
“You Should Be Dancing” — Saturday Night Fever
“Make ‘Em Laugh” — Singin’ in the Rain
“We Got Annie” — Annie
Final Dance — Strictly Ballroom
Lincee’s picks:
“Canned Heat” — Napoleon Dynamite
Salsa Club — Dance With Me
“Cell Block Tango” — Chicago
“Love Man” — Dirty Dancing
“African Anteater Ritual” — Can’t Buy Me Love
EPISODE NOTES:
“Spell Block Tango” Spoof (Disney Villains)
ABC’s live version of Dirty Dancing (bless it)
Crazy, Stupid, Love — Dirty Dancing scene (hello Ryan!)

March 29, 2018 IHGB #45 -- Rising Stars
In this episode of the I Hate Green Beans Podcast, I’m back with my roommate Lara discussing a fun topic. With the onset of Easter, we decided to share our rising stars with listeners. We talk about musicians and actors, but we also talk about iPhones, royal events, and craft beer.
Basically we talk about what has risen — just like Jesus.
EPISODE NOTES:
Lara and I discuss the new TV show Rise and how the theater department is debuting Spring Awakening. Although the show is more of a puttering flicker right now, we believe the kids in theater class WILL be rising stars.
Especially these two:
And the kids from A Wrinkle in Time.
Need rising star musicians? Check out Drake White and Carly Pearson.
Looking for a new craft beer? Lara thinks you should try Karbach.
You also need to save the date for this rising star…
And if you’re looking for a great Easter playlist, well look no more. I’ve got you covered!

March 15, 2018 IHGB #43 -- Pop Culture Slam Dunks
Now that Bachelor Arie found love, proposed, changed his mind, said JUST KIDDING on national television, bought a ring for number two, proposed to her (also on national television), and is off cashing in his fifteen minutes of fame, I’ll be focusing on other pop culture related episodes of the podcast.
I know those of you who don’t watch The Bachelor are virtually high-fiving me right now!
In celebration of March Madness, my roommate Lara and I discus our SLAM DUNKS of the last year when it comes to pop culture topics. We also give examples of “around the rim” and AIR BALL moments. And there’s a recurring poll of “Who would you date?” The answers vary, depending on the topic, but I always lean heavy in the direction of King Arthur.
I think my motives are clear.
EPISODE NOTES:
Here’s a link to Thomas Rhett’s new album and The Greatest Showman soundtrack.
Don’t know what we’re talking about when we discuss Janet Jacket and JT’s 2004 halftime show? Watch HERE and thank you YouTube!
We love The Popcast!
I’ve linked to this so many times, that it’s a bookmark on my computer. The Home Again kitchen scene. You’re welcome.
Here’s my review of the book “Still Me.”
And if you want to hear more with Lara, you can listen to our Love Story, Fall TV, Taylor Swift, or Justin Timberlake podcasts! (follow the highlighted text)

March 08, 2018IHGB #42 -- Bachelor Arie Finale and After the Final Rose
We made it through another season. Arie’s finale was a doozie. After the Final Rose was a hot mess. I’m sure it met every expectation ABC anticipated for the big event. There was a jilted bride, a girl power moment, speculation, a bland “apology,” very little closure, a reunion, an engagement, a new bachelorette announcement, a banjo, a few chaches, and a horse.
What more could we ask for?
A lot. There’s a lot more we can ask. And here’s a list:
Why did Arie tell Becca that he has “been in her shoes.” Uh, no ya haven’t, mister. Emily did not propose to you five years ago. You were the Lauren in this scenario. Jack wagon.
Did ABC not have enough miles to upgrade Becca to business class? Or something other than the middle seat? I know she probably booked her flight last minute, considering the turn of events, but geez.
Should Becca be her own wind keeper and burn the Polaroids of Arie?
Is watching old videos from Peru the best way to spend time on your b-roll footage?
Can someone hand the woman a Kleenex for crying out loud?
Is there any reason to feel sorry for Lauren?
Does Baby Bekah own a shirt?
Do we believe that Arie is manipulative like Tia says?
Why did Arie get down on one knee if he wasn’t sure the morning of the proposal?
Can Harrison pull off the term “bonehead” without sounding like an old man?
What did Baby Bekah mean when she said that Arie “had a choice” to end the relationship with Becca on camera?
Do you think Kendall kept her stuffed bride rat after seeing this mess unfold before her eyes?
What’s up with the timeline and should I care at this point?
Was it Becca’s intent to channel Wonder Woman with her gold dress? To show she’s a strong woman? With an invisible plane?
Do we all call BS on Becca telling Harrison that she appreciates having her breakup aired live in front of the world because it helps her get closure?
Is this what DAMAGE CONTROL looks like in the ABC PR department?
Will Arie live in the same house with Lauren that he already picked out with Becca?
How long did it take for the ABC Intern to hang those strategically placed billboards?
Who are these people contributing to Becca’s Venmo account?
Isn’t it cool that Becca is giving all the money ($6,000) to Stand Up For Cancer?
Can’t ABC do a little better than matching six grand?
Did they give all their spare cash to Arie to propose on national television?
Do you think Becca will give some of the serious cash ABC paid her to be the next bachelorette to Stand Up For Cancer?
Why can’t Arie answer the questions Becca asks him?
How can Becca be that calm, cool, and collected when he’s staring at her like that?
Why is Kendall weeping in Baby Bekah’s arms? Is she over tired? Will Bekah be able to hold her up?
Did Arie really admit that he felt pressure as the bachelor to propose?
Why do I still feel an ick emotion when I see Mesnick?
Do you assume Arie suggested Lauren not watch the finale because it paints him in a horrendous, dirty brown light?
Did Lauren notice that Chris Harrison was right beside her as she whisked by him into the protective arms of her boyfriend? How did she not smell him?
Does everyone understand that these two crazy kids are going to make it because she’s the one person in the world who can tell him from the bottom of her heart that she thinks he did the right thing?
How many different ways can Arie say, “It was worth it.”
How much time is an appropriate amount of time to let pass before proposing to another woman?
Should you propose on national TV when your ex-fiancé is in the other room?
Did Arie use the same ring for Lauren as he did for Becca?
Do you think the ABC Intern used a blender to mix up some margaritas to distract Becca from overhearing Arie ask Lauren to marry him?
Who were the boneheads in the audience who clapped during the proposal?
Am I making bonehead the new fetch? Am I weird for wanting to make that happen? Does that make me old?
How many ex-girlfriends can sit on one couch?
How many nether regions did the entire first row see?
What exactly does the ABC contract entail?
Do you sign your life away forever? Or just until the elasticity gives out on your face?
Will the majority of Becca’s beaus be of the chach variety?
Why am I suddenly drawn to the banjo? And the dude playing it?
Is there any way home boy will NOT hoist Becca up on that horse?
How much glitter goes into a glitter bomb?

February 28, 2018 IHGB #41 -- Bachelor Arie Recap Overnight Dates
Notice I didn’t use the term “fantasy suites” in the title of this podcast. Why?
Because a yurt is not the equivalent of a suite. Some Guy in Austin and I talk about this in too much detail and try to puzzle through the different ways Arie and Becca could go to the bathroom.
We discuss our favorite moments from Women Tell All and I fill SGIA in on which American is dating which international Bachelor star, Ashley I-Lashes bohunk, and Clare’s Canadian love interest. Then we dive into Peruvian crop circles, how many times is too many times to utter the words I LOVE YOU, and our new favorite fake villain Red Ross.

February 21, 2018 IHGB #40 -- Bachelor Arie Recap Hometown Dates
Hooray for Bachelor Arie’s hometowns! I know we joke about this all the time, but that was the most dramatic rose ceremony ever, right? Who saw that coming?
Well, I sort of did. In the final moments. Some Guy in Austin talk about it on the podcast. We also talk about “Charlotte’s Web,” the infamous Jump and Straddle(R), and who we think of the remaining three has the best chance of landing a diamond ring by Uncle Neil.
Disclaimer: We recorded this late at night and we are both a little giggly. Just go with it!
