We revisit Dune now that the new movie is out. Jason wonders if there is some weird sexual tension between Paul and his mom. Tabby thinks Villeneuve could learn a few things from Tarantino. And, black sludge strikes again. Our second topic, Pom Poko, starts at the 46min mark.

We're back with our second L.M. Montgomery episode, where we cover Anne Shirley's continuing story into adulthood. Diane Neu's love for Gilbert Blythe made her the perfect guest for this discussion. We weren't always happy with the choices the adaptation made, but we also recognize that this series has special significance for those who grew up watching it. As Diane said in this episode, maybe it's time for someone to finally adapt Anne of the Island in all its glory.

Anne of Green Gables is one of the most popular children's books, and everyone who has read it has something to say about the red-headed orphan; the Modern Life podcast is no exception. We have all the heart eyes for the beautiful scenery, and of course, Gilbert Blythe. We dive into the trivia of the 1985 series, like how Megan Follows got the much coveted main role. And who knew there was a German cut of this adaptation?

Our guest for this episode is Wives & Daughters superfan Ruth Mitchell. We gush over Gaskell's character writing and humour, are appalled by Rosamund Pike's mullet wig, despair over the missing ending, and take a look at how the casting of the show compares to the book.

After years of watching The Great British Bake Off, we are finally dedicating a whole episode to its latest season. From botched brownies to gorgeous jello art, we have lots of opinions on this beloved comfort watch. We discuss why some of it might not qualify as home baking, how Covid has maybe changed the show for the better, and how the editing room portrays the competition. And, also why exactly are the Brits always surprised at summer occurring from June to August in the Northern hemisphere?

On this episode of the Modern Life podcast we dissect Bridgerton; the new Shondaland Netflix series. We gush over the fantastical wardrobe, critique some of the character portrayals, and try to put the show into historical context. Jackie is my guest for this episode, and she is a wealth of knowledge when it comes to Regency facts and Bridgerton trivia. You can find her on Instagram @bookswithjax.

For our holiday episode, we first chose Last Christmas. But, after being very disappointed with that film, we moved on to Happiest Season...and hated that movie also. Nevertheless, we still keep it informative and funny, even if there isn't much to laugh at in either of these Christmas productions.

We are back early from our break, after spending some time in the Wild West! Tabby & Sam grew up on Desperados, a tactics game for the PC, and can't wait to tell you all about the newest installment. Also discussed in this episode: water mechanics, botany, tiny fonts, and contract law. (There's a strange unedited 5sec pause in the beginning, which we did not catch. Sorry, folks!)
