Carie and Ross are OFF THE RAILS this week with one of their all-time favorite musicals, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat (1999). Ross stifles his adoration for Joan Collins, Carie goes bananas over Andrew Lloyd Webber's mosaic musical score, and the siblings wrist flap at the height of camp in this direct-to-video production.

1 hr 21 min - The King’s Speech or: How I Learned About Elocution
In continuing our theme of fealty of knights in service of kings, we have a different sort of "knight" this week, Carie and Ross cover Tom Hooper's Academy Award Winning film, The King's Speech (2010). Ross divulges all the tea shared between King George VI (or "Bertie") and his elocution coach, Lionel Logue who landed his own title in chivalry under the British crown. Carie groans at the protocol of royal life, Ross gives us the cliffnotes on the David arc from the Crown, and the siblings appreciate the power of a well-timed speech in a not well time at all.

Do you and your friends speak in movie quotes? Do you trade Spongebob memes back and forth with your loved ones? Do you have to rely on the ”Are You Still Watching?” message to let you know it’s time to bathe and stop procrastinating? If you answered yes to any (or all) of these questions, come hang out with us every other week!
Media can play a huge role in shaping who we are. Sometimes it makes us idolize Jeff Goldblum as a sex symbol. Sometimes a lack of representation makes you feel invisible. As hosts, siblings Carie and Ross will analyze this phenomenon by breaking down a favorite movie or television show and how the sights, sounds, and messages of media have followed our generation throughout our lives. So pour your favorite beverage, relax, and explore how our shared experiences with movies and television messed us up as a generation. There will be laughter, there will be sadness, and THERE WILL BE discussions about homosexual subtext in children’s animation.
