Pretty Little Podcasters

Mike is shirtless. Shirtless Mike. Everyone stay calm!

Meanwhile, Mathlete Andrew is pretty hot, also.

Oh, don't worry, your insightful hosts talk about how truly horrific this episode title is. We cover it in depth. This is a busy episode. We try to help Lesli and Jonny find the missing letters from their names. We try to help Emily decipher Talia's mixed signals (that are not at all mixed) and ehlp Ezra's new business avoid a sexual harrassment suit all at the same time.

Meanwhile, we are basically just killing time until next week's episode as we have been promised an angry, shirtless, weight-lifting Mike.

Hanna is in danger and the PLL gang concoct a plan to save her that is so complicated we don't even attempt to understand it. But, your intrepid hosts do talk about Ashley and Jason a lot. And how much Caleb adds to every single scene he is in and how Toby detracts. We also talk about Weak Link Emily's weakest linkiest moment to date. And that's saying something!

Meanwhile, Ali wasn't in this episode and we couldn't be happier about that.

In the episode of PLL we are watched today Cancer (Caleb & Spencer) were detectiving again. They find a wealth of evidence that A has gathered from Mona's murder that can be used against them. And a barrel. They focus pretty much entirely on the barrel. Plus Ashley gets a peanut butter cookie proposal. And to get through it all we have awesome, wonderful and hilarious guest Ervin Ross (Comedy Bang! Bang!, The Mindy Project, Parks and Recreation)! He even drops some PLL theories on us that, for someone's first viewing, are remarkably on point. 

Meanwhile, we ponder Jonny's upbringing due to his proclivity towards diggin through stranger's trash bins. 

I honestly don't know where to start. Officer Toby is ignoring evidence, the school has a kiln room that Spencer and Caleb think is going to EVAPORATE METAL and Jonny is moving into the guest house. You guys, PLL is on point.

Meanwhile, top chef Emily makes a recipe that for some reason involves coring grapes. This ep is gangbusters so hit play and let's do this!

We are back with a vengeance to cover the winter premiere of PLL with our longest episode to date! Why so long? We had the sheer pleasure of being joined by our most involved and engaged guest ever, Julia WD Harrison! She did her homework and watched a lot of PLL before she came in. So we get some awesome retro season one talk in. We also talk about the winter premiere so have no fears. We ponder the "A" fireworks, welcome Ali to the clink and get into why someone would wear leis to a funeral.

Meanwhile, Julia leads us to analyze PLL on a deeper level and we really fall into a wormhole of tv comparisons and the psychology of the show. No, seriously. It's falcon amazing!

Merry Ho Ho to one and all! Pretty Little Liars is back from the longest hiatus of all times! And it is the long awaited Christmas episode! We go to the Ice Ball, snoop around Ali's hat boxes (because apparently they did not stop making hat boxes in the 50s), learn Mona had a lawyer on retainer and watch lesbian PDA at an old folks home.

Meanwhile, seven teenagers and their English teacher have an implied Christmas orgy.

Don't forget to head over to iTunes to leave us a glowing review! As your Christmas present to us? Haven't we been good this year?

The PLL hiatus continues. But we are not gonna let that get us down because it means we get to do another PLP Retro ep! We have been wanting to break down the Adam Lambert Halloween episode forever so we finally do it! Who cares if Halloween is over? Time is relative, man.

And special eps mean special guests! Our guest is just one of the best stand-ups working today. Period. Okay, well, not period because we want to brag on her some more. She has her own phenomenal podcast, worked for The Tonight Show with Jay Leno and did we mention she's just plain f***ing hilarious? She is Kira Soltaonovich! Seriously, you guys, your humble hosts M & B come off as awkward pause machines because we just cannot keep up with the rapid-fire wit of Kira. She's awesome. We simply could not ask for a better guest to have for the episode where Adam Lambert flirts with Arararara (that will make sense when you listen to the podcast so get to it!).

Also, please be a buddy and drop by and rate us (positively) on iTunes.

Does this Pretty Little Liars hiatus feel longer than others? It does to us. But that is totally okay because we get to do another PLP Retro! Today we a going all the way back to season one to revisit the infamous glamping episode (season one, episode ten). You think you remember this episode but you don't. Well, at least we really didn't. We straight up forgot most of it actually. We were also fairly punchy to be honest. If you haven't relived an early PLL episode in a while then this is a great time to do it.

Meanwhile, Ms. Marin steals from old ladies all the while passing out hundred dollar bills to her kid!

Pretty Little Liars is still on hiatus so that gives us a chance to go back and revisit some our favorite episodes from past seasons. It is October so, naturally, we are going to cover a Halloween episode. In fact, we are covering the first Halloween episode inexplicably called "The First Secret" (episode 13 from season 2). And what fun is a PLL Halloween ep if we don't share it with someone? 

We invited Pamela Murphy to come watch her first episode of PLL with us! She has been on The Hotwives of Orlando, she is a mainstay at the UCB Theater, been on epic episodes of Comedy Bang! Bang! (the podcast and the television show) and a million other projects that she has made all the better by her presence. She is absolutely hilarious and we simply could not have asked for a better guest. You need to hit play and listen to us deconstruct everthing from sex-with-sheep jokes to Ali's test that breaks every single principle of logic known to man. 

Meanwhile, Ali eats a giant finger-full of ketchup and we are all appropriately disgusted.
