This week we're talking about one of Rosey's childhood faves Three Men and a Baby. Spoiler alert, but Avery loved it too. It holds up and we get into why and how. Is it the charming combination of Tom Selleck, Ted Danson, and Michael Guttenberg? Is it the safe fatherly energy? Is it the fact that the woman ask for what they want? All of the above? We also discuss our reactions to Barbie, Avery's enjoyment of the Women's World Cup, and Rosey's new YouTube hole.

In two weeks, we'll be back with Sister Act II.

This week we’re revisiting the “ground breaking” Lizzie McGuire (the series, we didn’t get as far as the movie…) It brings up lots of memories of our own middle school shenanigans, as well as an extensive meditations on the post office. Fun times.

Next week we’re taking a look at an 80s (cult?) classic Three Men and A Baby. This is another Rosey favorite, but new to Avery! We’re excited to get into it.

We're talking about The Devil Wears Prada. And oh, 2006 fashion, why? We dive into workplace politics, clothing we don't understand, and how crazy we'd be if we were as rich as Miranda. Also, Rosey spills some tea from her own crazy assistant days. Meanwhile, Avery watched a bunch of masochistic men and Rosey studied endlessly.

This week we're talking a look at Glow and reveling in all the Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling. It's a really interesting look at gender expression, sexual identity, body image, racial stereotypes, and overall sense of self. We get a bit personal and go on an existential journey, but don't worry, it's not too heavy. Aside from Glow, Avery's been watching YouTube and Rosey has been madly studying Anatomy.

In three weeks (we're taking a few breaks this summer), we'll be back and talking about the classic Mrs. Doubtfire.

We're finally talking about Daisy Jones & the Six. We try not to yuck anyone's yum too much, but let's just say our opinion is strong. We get into nuanced stories getting simplified, what happens when (most) men write female characters, and all the changes we just don't understand. But on a happier note, Avery watched what she thinks is one of the best shows ever and Rosey is delightfully enjoying a rewatch.

Next week we're going to talk about a little-known movie from the 90s, Benny & June.

It's time for our final week of month of Sandra! We are sad to see her go. We went out with a bang, with two real downers, but fun to talk about movies: Premonition and Bird Box. Premonition has a 6% on rotten tomatoes, so you can guess some our thoughts, but we have fun breaking it all down. 

Next week we're diving deep into the recent release Daisy Jones And The Six, trying to make sense of an adaptation we didn't understand but many people seemed to love. We're going to try and figure out why. 

Where to watch:
Bird Box—Netflix
Premonition—Amazon
Unstable—Netflix

The Sandra stories continue. This week we're looking at Two Weeks Notice and 28 Days. They have nothing in common except Sandra and numbers in their titles. We talk about everything from toxic workplace "romance" to what really goes on in a rehab. We cheer and we jeer - these movies are conflicting. We've finished Daisy Jones and started Yellowjackets and we've got thoughts on both.

Next week we'll finish up our month of Sandra on an odd downbeat with Premonition and Bird Box.

28 Days - Netflix
Two Weeks Notice - HBO
Yellowjackets - Hulu/Showtime

This week we're doubling down for our second week of Sandra month, with the not-creepy-at-all While You Were Sleeping and the sort-of-creepy-but-mostly-confusing Practical Magic. We dive deep into both--endearing stalkers, quirky mishaps, feminist overtones, and more. Next week join us for our continuing tour de Sandra when we talk about 2 Weeks Notice and 28 Days.
