Welcome back to the Manic Podcast Dream Girl!!

This week's episode left very little time for my usual lolly-gagging and shennanigans. My guest, Michelle and I (see episode 2: Zombie Bridgerton) had 8 episodes to discuss and many, many thoughts to share.

I hope you enjoy this episode and would love to hear your thoughts on season 2 of House of the Dragon!! How are we feeling? Can we make it 2 years without a new episode? And will Demon and Rhaenyra ever kiss again? These are the burning questions of the day!!

So email me [email protected] or send a text to the show (oooo fancy!!)
And don't forget to come follow the pod on Instagram @manicpodcastdreamgirl, my guest on Instagram @meshellyv and me, your illustrious hostess with the mosticle @thelizzietea on Instagram and/or Tik Tok!!

Happy Listening!!

Merry Christmas in July to all who celebrate!! If there's 12 things you need to know about me, one of those things should be how much I love Hallmark Christmas movies! I've called in a veritable expert to come help me break down the new movies offered for the Christmas in July season, which is a high holiday season in this house!

My bestie Erin, @erinelizabethellis, is back on the pod and ready to talk all things Hallmark Christmas!!

But first... are any of you as enamoured with the Olympics as I am? It's hard to get things done when I know there are Olympians medaling in Track & Field as I publish today's episode. What else can possibly matter more than the Olympics right now?

Somehow, I pressed on and got this done. An Olympic feat all it's own!!

In this breakdown of the selections for this season's Christmas in July, Erin and I chose to watch:
-3 Wise Men and a Baby (extended cut)
-Rescuing Christmas
-A Very Vermont Christmas
-Falling Like Snow\flakes
-An Ice Palace Christmas

and 2 classic bonus Christmas movies:
-A Biltmore Christmas
-Christmas Getaway

If you head over to the pod instagram (@manicpodcastdreamgirl), you'll find a Christmas Movie Bingo that we've generated and you can follow along as you watch!! 

Happy holidays and I hope you enjoy this episode!!

Hello Manic Podast Dream Nerds!!

Welcome back to another episode of mayhem and magic!!

In the What's Going On section of today's podcast, I am in my fandom feels just as I like it. Between House of the Dragon, LOST, and this week's podcast topic Star Wars The Acolyte, there's so much to watch and enjoy!!

I'm reading Star Wars The High Republic: Light of the Jedi by Charles Soule for my Star Wars Book Club on Goodreads! Come on over, we are always excited to welcome new members!

And for my Summer Book Court Reading Group, I just finished Where the Crawdads Sing and Juliet Takes a Breath. I'm excited to ship those to their new homes. 

Now for the meat and potatoes of today's episode! My special guest today is my dear friend, Tim. Who I have been podcasting with on and off for about 8 years over on the Random Chatter Network. We can normally be found discussing the MCU, but today we are talking Star Wars.

There's a lot of controversy surrounding Star Wars The Acolyte, but spoiler alert... 
Tim and I are quite united in our love and adulation for this show. The action, the casting, the lore, the lightsabers... what's not to love?!

Make sure to follow Tim over on IG @somecallmetim1138
As well as this podcast @manicpodcastdreamgirl
And yours truly can be found on TT or IG @thelizzietea

Welcome back to the Manic Podcast Dream Girl!

This week's intro will seem out of place in the mad cap, fun times that we've had previously. But it being The 4th of July and politics being what they are AND being in an unprecedented election cycle... again, it is my duty to talk about it and use my platform to discuss a little politics. No matter how "impolite" it may be to discuss at the dinner table!

If you're looking for an alternative reason to celebrate this July 4th, consider my mother's birthday a worthy place holder. And raise a glass to her instead! ;)

Don't worry, we get to the fun stuff too this episode.
I finished reading Summer Sisters by Judy Blume and will be sending it to a member of my Summer Book Court.

Currently Reading: Where the Crawdads Sing by Delia Owens

Currently Watching: My Lady Jane and Star Wars' The Acolyte

Now to the meat and potatoes of today's episode, my bestie Cristina and I are talking Inside Out 2 which brought up some very interesting topics of conversation. Mental health and how Covid has effected us. Adult diagnoses. The P word... Puberty. And that the writing staff on this movie was overwhelmingly women. Which is refreshing.

I hope you enjoy this episode!!

If you have any comments, questions, future topics of discussion, etc. please email me [email protected]

Come follow me on social media (IG/TT) @thelizzietea... I'm pretty fun!!

Welcome to the Manic Podcast Dream Girl!!

Today in my ramblings I'm discussing the return of weekly distributed televion and House of the Dragon. Weekly episodes are where it's at and thank goodness a bunch of the shows I'm currently watching, House of the Dragon, Star Wars The Acolyte and Doctor Who all have weekly dropped episodes. It gives my obsessive, vortex brain a break from the binge watching cycle!! Cause Lord knows I don't have the willpower if the episodes are out!

What I'm reading: Summer Sisters by Judy Blume.
A dear Instagram friend, Tara, and a member of my Summer Book Court sent me this book and it is the perfect read for summer!!

What I'm watching: Besides House of the Dragon, Bridgerton on replay, The Acolyte and Doctor Who, I'm also rewatching one of my favorite shows of all time Revenge. Available to watch on Hulu. This was a show released in the summer on ABC and it one I rewatch every summer. It is the vibes!!

For the meat and potatoes of this week's episode, I enlisted my friend Sheba to help me debrief and process my feelings about the drop of Bridgerton Season 3 Part 2.
And there are a lot of feelings to process!!

Even though we certainly take time to air out grievances, let me just say that overall I was very happy with Season 3 and have thouroughly enjoyed being entrenched in the Bridgerton Vortex.

If you need something to hold you over for the next 2 years while we wait for Season 4, stay tuned to this podcast and also, come on over to my Tik Tok (@thelizzietea) where every Friday night at 7pm est, I will be hosting a Bridgerton Support Group in my live feed.

For any comments, questions or to advertise on this podcast, please email me at [email protected]

MORE SMOOCHIES!!

To start, yes! I am fully obsessed with all things Bridgerton and I HAVE seen Part 2 of Season 3. I will need 3-5 business weeks to process that information!!!

This week's book recommendation is Eveything, Everything by Nicola Yoon.

The Tik Tok quote in this episode is from @KittyKnorr: "If you're trying to feel more inspired... treat your creativity like a person in your life."

My guest for this episode is my good friend Michelle.
Find her on instagram @meshellyv

In this episode, Michelle and I deep dive into what we affectionately call "Zombie Bridgerton" but you might know it by it's true name, The Ones Who Live. The Walking Dead spin-off that reunites our beloved Rick Grimes with his one true love Michonne!

Thank you for listening and if you have any questions, topics you'd like me to discuss or would like to be considered as a guest host for this podcast, please email me at [email protected].
