Pitney & Amelia's Bitchen Boutique

Yep, that's a dancing merkin you see there. She's tappin' her little heart out to sell some dumb crap for Kim Kardashian.

But first, a catty side quest about language on the way to a long list of good stuff that's making us happy these days. Stuff like management having Pitney's back, Amelia surprising herself with one hell of a present, making a friend over a Linkin Park shirt, excitement about Wicked: For Good and Stranger Things, and MORE.

Then, after the coven meeting, Amelia shows Pitney the new line of merkins that Kim Kardashian is selling, and we go OFF for a while.

The first of our one-two punch of Halloween! This week we get positively catty about an old favorite from the 1970s, The Hardy Boys Meet Dracula! It's giving pointless subplots, bad accents, and the Phantom of the Paradise. Sort of. Then Amelia flips her wiglet over all the little things bugging her this spooky season, from beige pumpkins to Frankenstein on the toilet!

Pitney celebrates his birthday by being outraged by young people. From texting versus phone calls versus email to fake eyelashes and contour and "a dewy finish," we're telling everyone to get off our lawn!

Way back at the end of August, when life was simpler and Amelia hadn't yet had surgery on her hands, we got together to record what was going to be a fairly normal episode.

It's giving middle age aches and pains, it's giving Cracker Barrel, but it's mostly a discussion about that trashbag Marion Zimmer Bradley which turns into a whole thing about separating the art from the artist.

We apologize that some of the stuff in the coven meeting is a week or more out of date. Took us long enough just to get this out; we definitely had no time for rewrites!

It's Labubu, and so much more...you know we're really back when we can't stay on topic to save our lives!

A list of stuff we covered: Trae Crowder, Puttin On Airs, the Labubu craze, our first Hatin on Satan in ages, a quick AITA story, a gaggle of GoodGoodGoods, and what it's like to suddenly be the old dude with a cane.

We're back from yet another break! We are pretty sure we're done with breaks for the rest of the year.

We're so glad to be back that we kick it off with all the goods. Then Amelia shares a scary conversation she had with a horror fan. Plus assorted health talk that's NOT about cancer; Pitney's knee, Amelia's brain, and her overworked eyeballs.

Boobs! Cans! Gazongas! Sweater puppies! Pretty much sums up the episode, but there's more to it. Amelia has brought her husband along to fill in for Pitney this week, and while they chat about their shared love of movies with lots of boobs in them, she realizes she never came out to him back when she realized that she has been bisexual this whole time. A coming out story... perfect for Pride month!

We'll be taking another short break in July, and we'll be back on August 8th. Amelia needs to focus on getting through her radiation treatment. Stupid cancer!

Some chitchat about Pitney's week-long visit with Amelia, discussion about rude breeders in stores and parking lots, and then big frustration about what the hell happened in the season finale of Doctor Who.

And we're still reeling from the accuracy of the tarot reading we did last month. You can watch it here: https://youtu.be/uWrItU8joHE?si=ylO7ia4u0e5sm_Yo
