The Au-Gusts keep coming this month and we are so excited to revisit a movie we first saw together in theaters. This week we are doing Juno which has a stellar cast including Elliot Page (as Ellen Page) as Juno and Michael Cera as Paulie Bleeker. Juno, a 16 year old, gets pregnant by her crush Paulie and has to navigate the choices she must make for herself and the baby. It may not sound like it but this movie is a hoot and we discuss: what it would look like if we only did movies about guys named Mark (would the Hallmark title still work?), how Richard Simmons and Tony Little should be friends and have their own fanfiction, and how Corinne can read but for some reason can't say the word Leah. We are pregnant with feelings over this movie and hope you join us as we give birth to this episode.

We're on the last episode of 'Movies that May make you say WTF' and Corinne picked a doozy. This week we are doing Redline, starring Nadia Bjorlin as Natasha, a car savvy mechanic by day and a singer by night. Until she meets Carlo, played by Nathan Phillips who accompanies her to the dangerous world of underground street racing. In this episode we: contemplate what the best snacks are to store in your cleavage, agree that nothing says 'I love you' like a kidnapping, and have a heated debate over the ratings; Corinne dubs this film a terrible, wonderful masterpiece while Tamara regards it as The Fast & Infuriating. This movie got our motors running for very different reasons but we gave it all we got and hope you join us as we caress the Redline. Episode drops May 21st. Also as a reminder we are taking some time off. This will be our last episode until July 30th. We will miss all of our gentle listeners in the meantime but bid you adieu with one dry kiss.

This week's movie that 'May make you say WTF' takes us back to L.A. specifically to Encino CA. where we are covering the 90's hit Encino Man. It stars Sean Astin as Dave, an unlikely protagonist who digs up a frozen caveman, played by Brendan Frasier, with the help of his reluctant friend Stoney, played by Pauly Shore. In this episode we: marvel at how 2 of our most recent movies starred leading men that needed to be shaved and taught english, argue whether a caveman of the 90's would use peanut butter or sh*t as his preferred medium for cave paintings, and agree that Dave is as bland as a baloney sandwich with no mayo. We are still recovering from the aftershocks this movie gave us but we hope you join us for the earth shaking saga that is Encino Man.

This month's theme is 'Movies That MAY Make You Say WTF?!?!?' Our first WTF movie is Earth Girls Are Easy. It stars Geena Davis as Val, a heartbroken girl who's just discovered her fiance Ted has been cheating, but Val finds distraction in a trio of horny aliens who land in her backyard pool, they are: Mac played by Jeff Goldblum, Wiploc, played by Jim Carrey and Zeebo, played by Damon Wayans. In this episode we: speculate that the cheating Ted is a sociopath and one we will NOT be having a Ted Talk about, explain that just because things are called toiletries doesn't mean they belong in the toilet, and give helpful tips on how to handle hairy nipple patches. We marveled at the budding talent in this movie, laughed entirely too much at our own jokes, and now agree that Earth Girls Are Easy and very very entertaining.

It's the last episode of our April Fools theme and we're ending it with a bestie bang! We're doing Romy and Michele's High School Reunion, starring Mira Sorvino as Romy and Lisa Kudrow as Michele, two ditzy friends who decide to fabricate an 'impressive' life in order to dazzle their classmates at the 10 year reunion. In this episode: we hypothesize what our Shark Tank pitch would be for Lady Fair-Quick Burning Cigarettes, Corinne explains how partitions are a priority for privacy...and nookie, and we get Romy and Michele's origin story, which include their ambitions to be sex workers (and there's a prequel to prove it). We enjoyed reliving some of our high school cafeteria memories and we'd love it if you'd join us at our table so we can hang and gossip about Romy and Michele's High School Reunion.

131: Cootie Catcher & A Bountiful Batch of Botox: Romy & Michele's High School Reunion

This week we're covering the 'April Fools' movie Legally Blonde, AND we are waxing poetic about the late great podcast Let's Go To Court. Both showcase court cases but only Legally Blonde stars Reese Witherspoon as Elle Woods, a heartbroken college student who in an attempt to win her boyfriend back, applies to Harvard and gets accepted. In this episode we: debate on whether being named Chutney is motive enough to murder your parents, marvel at how Elle is the 'pinnacle of diversity' at Harvard, and discuss our signature styles which consist of beige wallflower camouflage, orange swim goggles and Beiber hair. We are heading to court in more ways than one this week and we hope you join us as we drink from our Owalla's, say 'podcast adjourned' to our beloved LGTC and find out what it's like to be Legally Blonde.
