April 29, 2023 Episode 90: Is It An R-Rated Hotel Lobby?
This week: Purple Rain
It's our final week of *Mystery Month*, and we are going out with a bang. Camp Counsellor Sarah has gone through some radical changes. She's taken to wearing ruffles and maroon everywhere. She's bought a keyboard, a motorcycle, and a perm. And now she's pushing to try and take the Podcast further than ever before through a battle of the Podcast hosts.
Where did she learn this? Who taught her these things? Maybe if we watch Purple Rain it will explain everything.
How sexy is Prince? No seriously, how sexy is he? Is Purple Rain, the song, really worth the climax of the film? And ruffles?
We'll bring you along, but only if you take a dip in a frigid lake first.

In the deepest reaches of space, in the far flung future of next Tuesday, Sarah receives a missive from Sam that she must head even deeper into space to stop a mad scientist from inventing a Vague Space Weapon. What does it do? Ehn… does it matter? It's bad!

April 15, 2023 Episode 88: Is It An Emotional Support Barrel?
This episode: Cutthroat Island

Yarrr mateys! We be heading back to the High Seas for our third week of *Mystery Month* in an attempt to follow up on two things we've enjoyed: pirates and Geena Davis! And what's this? A map that will lead us to a treasure that has both! Why the long lost treasure of Cutthroat Island, starring Geena and Matthew Modine! Its bound to be a classic! Right?
How do the Counsellors feel about piratical Frank Langella? Are you ready to learn about eels? And who would we have preferred to see in the Matthew Modine role? (No offense to Mr Modine)
Cut the jib and hoist the pirate thing!

April 08, 2023 Episode 87: Is It Gogurt Presents Beyoncé?
This episode: Liza With a Z

Come quickly, make your way to the Palace Ampitheatre! Sarah is about to put on her one woman show: Sarah With An H. Sam is directing it, and everything must be precise. It's our second week of *Mystery Month* where the Counsellors have chosen properties neither of them have seen, so this week they've settled on Liza With A Z. I wonder if it has anything to do with Sarah's show…
How do you spell Liza Minnelli? Is this one hour show going to bring up Therapy Topics? And how much fun is a human airplane?
Hurry hurry, the band is striking up!

April 01, 2023 Episode 86: Is It Capitalism All Along?
This episode: April Fool's Day (1986)

The Counsellors have decided to become SUPER SERIOUS and grow up this week. No jokes. No japes. No pranks. Only one killer let loose in the Is It Camp Palace to roam about and pick off guests one by one. No silliness. No Sunny D.
We are adults, and will act as such.
….
…
..
April Fools! And it's the first week of *Mystery Month*!
But seriously there's a killer picking off guests one by one. How do we stop them?! By watching April Fool's Day!
What kind of pranks do the Counsellors endorse? Why is this movie a bad idea? And does the kill order really matter here?
Join us on a lovely retreat where nothing traumatizing will ever happen.

March 25, 2023 Episode 85: Is It Sex Eggs?
This episode: Dungeons & Dragons (2000)

You've rolled a natural 20, and now find yourself in the presence of the best Camp Counsellors out there! And you're going to begin a quest: to liberate the Enchanted Mayo from the depths of the Forbidden Fridge! Ok, Sam is making a sandwich, but he really needs this mayo! It's dangerous out there, so the Counsellors give you a guide, special guest host Riley Silverman! And if you need a crash course in tabletop games, check out the Dungeons & Dragons film!
Why is the MacGuffin of the film a terrible idea? What scene does not mesh with the rest of this film, in that it is so much better? And who's the special appearance by in this film? No not that one, the OTHER one!
Join our adventuring party and don't forget to roll for initiative!

March 18, 2023 Episode 84: Is It A Series Of Accent Crimes?
This episode: Super Mario Bros. (1993)

A job just got called in for the Counsellors! No time to talk! Pack your plumbing tools, 7 inch heels, best wig, and you can do your makeup on the way! The job is in another dimension as we need to liberate a race of hyper-evolved dinosaurs from an evil despot before he…
…you know what? Maybe just pop in the ORIGINAL Super Mario Bros movie, from the 90s and I'm sure it will answer all your questions. Such as:
What are the chances that the earth goes through another extinction level event? Why are the cars in this movie wired up like bumper cars? And why should the hosts get good rest?
Now put on your Thwomper Stompers and jump in with us!

March 11, 2023 Episode 83: Is It The Literal Alphabet Mafia?
This episode: Ball of Fire
The Counsellors have been working extra hard on a new episode, so much so that they've holed themselves up in the Is It Camp Palace. Time goes by, and Sam and Sarah have now forgotten what the outside world is like. But when a stunning young singer shows up at the Palace doors with a fresh perspective and a penchant of chaos, what will the Counsellors do? Dare they venture out into a new world that's moved by so fast, or do they remain, and finish the episode in the next few years…
So that's why they're checking out the film Ball of Fire!
Which outfit shocked the Camp Counsellors? How tall was Gary Cooper? And are we reading too much into a character with the last name Lilac?
Join us, we promise we won't be too corny!

March 04, 2023 Episode 82: Is It A Muscular Starfish?
This episode: Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon Movie Film For Theaters

The Counsellors have finally decided to explore their origin stories. But first Sam is going to get in shape, and Sarah is going to try and stop him from getting in shape. This will lead to a fight to the death, as it turns out that Sam is Sarah's creator, or the other way around. There's a floating watermelon. The Is It Camp Palace blows up, but it's also perfectly fine. July shit, what is even happening here.
Not to worry Campers! Just sit down, and watch Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon Movie Film For Theatre, and it should… make things… clear?
What does Guerilla Marketing have to do with any of this? Why does Sam hate Deadpool? And what song will be stuck in both the Counsellors heads and yours after you watch this film?
Join us, 1000 years ago into the future for an episode that could mean the end of the world!

February 25, 2023 Episode 81: Is It Chekov's Bogo Pogo?
This episode: Strictly Ballroom

It's the final week of *Romance Month* and the Camp Counsellors have one last thing they need to do before the end. Win the Inter-Provincial Semi-Amateur Final Qualifiers of Competitive Hokey Pokey! But tensions are building between our Counsellors as Sarah believes in the traditions of the Hokey Pokey, but Sam wants to try wild and exciting new steps. Can these two make it work before the big IPSAFQCHP?
Well, that's why they've decided to watch Baz Luhrman's first film Strictly Ballroom, in an effort to figure it all out.
Will Sam do accents this episode? Can we consider this film a sports movie? And what one little piece of character information makes some acting choices far more understandable?
Step out with us on the 2 beat, and don't forget to smile!

Quotes in this episode come from Annet Koch's master's thesis ,"The Visual Aesthetics of Baz Luhrmann's "Red Curtain Cinema""
