Onesies

An invisible man has released a toxin into the Star Labs air supply and Barry's only got four hours to save Tina! Emily wasn't paying attention so Andrew mansplains why she would've loved the episode--cheesy invisible man special effects, women supporting women, sticking it to the mediocre white man, and some references to modern superhero movies Emily will never see! Plus a potentionally shocking reveal into how the Onesies sausage is made! Don't miss it!

It's another cyberpunk odyssey, this time with a retro flare as the bad guy travels to the future (albeit really slowly) and discovers a changed world but shockingly similar television broadcast technology. There's also Barry making a friend, gaining a mentor, Biff Manard singing, but mostly there's just Jason Bernard getting a great guest star role. Even with the interesting hair choices, our intrepid hosts Emily and Andrew get to have a good time. Especially with some of the special effects....

Emily and Andrew get to weigh in on the concept of the "showcase episode," in which a cast member gets to flex their acting chops in the spotlight. Unfortunately for THE FLASH and actor Mike Genovese, it turns out it's awkward when said actor doesn't have those chops. Our intrepid hosts also get to discuss how white Christian nationalists used to be the bad guys on CBS, how copaganda used to be pro-Gun Control, and all sorts of other depressing descents.

In an episode-long challenge to our intrepid hosts Emily and Andrew devout professionalism, this episode of THE FLASH requires the hosts not just to navigate cloying kids, but one of them a child actor with a tragic end, and talking about how 1960s references used to be a media standard... and how obnoxious they could get. Our hosts, of course, expertly traverse these precarious topics. Tune in!

It's a humdinger of an episode as our intrepid hosts Emily and Andrew are lucky enough to get to discuss hicksploitation (hix?) in general, but far more specifically the copaganda plot for Barry and his dad (returning guest star M. Emmet Walsh). Is the moral of the story going to be "it's better to beat statements out of witnesses than to ask questions"? Or will it be something worse. Join us for discussing a truly unpleasant (plus minus boys and girls just being friends) episode (of THE FLASH--ONESIES is a delight regardless of subject!)

This week in sunny Central City, our hosts Emily and Andrew join in the city's annual Day of the Dead celebration, which provides so much conversation fodder since it's barely in the episode. Instead, they get to talk about cyberpunk supervillains, age appropriate love interests, the best possible mugging for the camera, and much more!

Emily and Andrew tag along when an Ocean's 11-esque crew hits Central City to relieve the museum of its latest exquisite exhibition. Little do these thieves know the Flash has taken an interest (Emily and Andrew, of course, know because they're watching the show). Tune in to hear our intrepid hosts discuss the continued "complementary" sexism, the shocking lack of inappropriate unprofessional canoodling, the pre-Clinton era militarization copaganda, and so much more!

Episode guest stars Dick Miller and Helen Martin make their ONESIES first apperances, and our intrepid hosts, Emily and Andrew, find out they each have been making the exact same assumptions about the opposite guest stars. Very confusing. Our hosts also get to discuss women supporting each other (or not) tropes, special effects, acting choices (or the lack thereof), and much more!

Intrepid hosts Emily and Andrew head back to late 20th century mainstream (as presented on primetime television) social mores regarding unhoused people and discover... things haven't gotten much better. They also get to discuss (single) women as men's property, practical special effects, power sets, and much more!

Emily and Andrew head off to Central City to catch up with THE FLASH, with Emily not realizing how long a 94 minute pilot movie with a bunch of superpowered fisticuffs in the third act goes on. And on. And on. Listen as our hosts discuss... aged (or not aged) actors, inappropriately aged girlfriends, the post-9PM broadcast "intimacy" scenes, special effects, and much more! Much of the discussion, is, however, from Andrew. Because Emily got bored talking about the show she got bored watching.
