The Meat Cute

The cuties take a look back at their old (failed) new year's resolutions and start developing new ones (to fail at) for 2017. Matt and Joshua also catch up on some backlogged advertisements - as per legal requirements. Things don't go well.

Whew! There goes 2016! We've been doing this for about a year so it's time to celebrate! It's an all-star cast this week as Jonathan "Hollywood" Gomez and Tony Canales host this retrospective episode. They invite Matt and Joshua to sunny Los Angeles, California to take a walk down memory lane. Michelle Burton is on hand to do live fact-checking as we go over the best AND WORST of our first year of podcasting. Thanks to everyone for listening and we're going to make 2017 the year of Meat Cute. Fuck off, THIS AMERICAN LIFE! Things go well!

A holiday Meat Cute Double-Feature! The cuties are joined by Tony Canales to put Christ back in holidays with Tyler Perry's A Madea Christmas. Since Joshua's never seen it, the double-down on the holiday theme and review the 1988 classic Die Hard!  Everyone has opinions about which movie is better. Where do you fall on the spectrum? The gang fights it out to see who is the winner. Things don't go well.

Matt has decided to go into business offering his services as a life coach. In order to sell this new venture to you shills out there, Matt needs to coach Joshua into a new life of confidence, success, and crippling chemical dependency. Things don't go well.

Matt and Joshua show off their dating skills so you'll participate in their new MASTER DATER contest! Just share or comment on this to enter for a chance to WIN A DATE WITH THE CUTIES! The chums walk you through some of their best dating memories and then give you a live demonstration of what a date with a cutie is like. Things don't go well.

WE PROVE THAT WRESTLING IS COOL. Ok, so maybe this week's cutie, Lilly Dagdigian, proves that wrestling is cool. How can toned dudes covered in sweat angrily slapping together while wearing potentially offensive costumes not be cool? Dunno, but Matt and Lilly school Joshua on how wrestling is more like improv and how similar it can be to comic books. Oh, and we find out what TNA stands for. Things don't go well.

Trigger Warning: The cuties dive into some of the shitty and terrible parts of the internet that gave us things like neckbeards, incels, the alt right, and Donald Trump. They're joined by expert shitlord Devan Miller (aka Dogpill Peenlord, aka American Apparel Sex Wario, aka Cyka Blyat) joins our heroes as they slush through the mire that is the dark parts of the internet and discuss why it's so bad, how it got that way, why it matters, and how to stop it.

It's another Meat Cute double feature! The cuties watched "BOO! A Madea Halloween" and "Doctor Strange" and we brought Tony C. along for the ride. Marvel as the gang discusses Tyler Perry's overt misogyny, Madea's trans status, and Doctor Strange's not-so-magical attempts at humor. Thrills! Chills! Spells! Things don't go well.

Matt and Joshua are feeling the post-election malaise and really just can't. We ditched our "regular" format to walk you through what we went through on election day, get angry about the shit pile we're living through, and talk about the future. Pretty much nothing is going well right now.

Having siblings sucks - or so Joshua thinks. Matt takes an hour convincing Joshua that having a sibling isn't all that bad. Just kidding. They both agree that siblings suck. But somewhere along the way they find out...maybe it doesn't?
