If there's any kind of magic in this world, it must be in the attempt of podcasting. In a major tonal shift, Jae felt like it was time for the rest of the girls to learn a little bit about the art of yearning, which means they're talking about Richard Linklater's Before Sunrise; the first entry in the Before trilogy, this film introduces us to Jessie and Celine, a couple of 20-somethings whose chance meeting will lead to a lifelong romance. Join Bridget, EV, Bri, and Jae as they discuss romantic chemistry, the liminality of life, and the ironic detachment of Gen X.

Boy, I never seen four ladies do so much damned podcasting. The girls are getting off the couch and hitting the road because, in this episode, Bri is taking them on a cross-country trip with Beavis and Butt-Head Do America. It may be a stupid movie, but it manages to be so tremendously stupid that the spectacle of these two terrible homunculus teenagers shines brightly. Join Bridget, EV, Bri, and Jae as they discuss the cultural dominance of MTV, anti-humor, and the ineptitude of the U.S. government.

You keep what you podcast. The girls are officially running on Diesel because, in this episode, EV had them watch and talk about the 2004 space opera farce, The Chronicles of Riddick. Supposedly, this is a sequel to the sci-fi/horror hit, Pitch Black; however, it plays out more like the vanity project of an edgy D&D nerd trapped in Vin Diesel's body. Wait, nevermind, that's just Vin Diesel. Join Bridget, EV, Bri, and Jae as they discuss whatever is going on with Karl Urban's hair, the ambiguity of play, and the 1985 hit song, "Walk of Life" by Dire Straights.

This podcast started years ago! It took a whole year of episodes, but Bridget was finally able to make the rest of the girls watch an anime movie they all loved: Mamoru Oshii's Patlabor 2: The Movie. With this film, Oshii transforms Patlabor, originally a series of goofy cop shenanigans, into a cold meditation on the concept of "peace" in an era of endless proxy wars. Join Bridget, EV, Bri, and Jae as they discuss blowback, the Tokyo Sarin Gas Attacks, and neoliberal capitalism's inability to respond to problems of their own making.

Is this your podcast, listener? The girls have officially become a real podcast and started their second year of broadcasting. And what better way to kick off the new season than a round table discussion on what is arguably the most iconic comedy of all time, The Big Lebowski. Join Bridget, EV, Bri, and Jae as they chat about post-Reagan politics, recreational marijuana use, and the absurdity of "film theories".

We've reached the end of our first year of podcasting, which can only mean one thing: It's time to craft an arbitrary ranking of the films we watched over the course of that first year!

The Podcast has become so very ugly, don't you think? As the girls reach the end of the first season, EV reveals that there has been a mole in their ranks this whole time; the only way they can solve this mystery is by discussing the 2011 spy-thriller Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy. An adaptation of a sprawling novel, the film attempts to condense all of its source material's meticulous details down to a red-string-tattered cork-board. Join Bri, Bridget, EV, and Jae as they discuss the ideology of conspiracy theory, the aesthetics of power, and, of course, cuckolding.

The podcast is not square! Bridget decided to take the girls into The Anime Mines one more time this season and they were not prepared in the slightest for what Gundam Reconguista in G: Movie I — Go! Core Fighter had to offer. As a compilation movie, choices were made of what to include or, more importantly, not include for fresh viewers and the results are mostly catastrophic. Join Bri, Bridget, EV, and Jae as they discuss Yoshiyuki Tomino, misogyny, and cannibalism

As you podcast...join the girls as Bri reads them a bedtime story about giant rats, Andre the Giant, and The Princess Bride. Despite being a beloved piece of pop culture, Jae has managed to avoid seeing this film for her whole life; will she love it as much as the rest of the group? There's only one way to find out and, in case you weren't aware, that's by listening to the dang episode! Join Bri, Bridget, EV, and Jae as they discuss storytelling, true love, and My Big Fat Greek Wedding.

You pod what you love and cast the rest. The girls hit the highway for the final loop, as Jae has the group watch '00s indie darling, Little Miss Sunshine. Part dysfunctional family drama, part dark comedy, and all deconstruction of the insidious gender norms that permeate American culture, Little Miss Sunshine remains an entertaining road movie from start to finish. Join Bri, Bridget, EV, and Jae as they discuss American exceptionalism, Osmosis Jones, and various flavors of familial baggage.
