January 09, 2025 The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King
Starting the new year off with some unfinished business. Strap in, because this week we are finishing off the LotR trilogy with discussions of well aged CGI, Gandalf's BDE, and girlbossing the heck out of sword combat. Apologies for the delay, we've been in Poland! Be sure to send us all your thoughts, predictions, and slander about the upcoming awards season/the dumpster fire that was the golden globes.

December 12, 2024 Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring
All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us. So thanks for letting us crawl inside your ears and romp through the LotR franchise this month! First time viewer Emily reacts, veteran movie marathoner Dara tries her best to explain some lore, but mostly we talk about how hot everyone is!

Huge thanks to all who submitted questions, including fellow podcaster Nick, check out his show Coffee Nick's Movie Picks

December 05, 2024 The Hobbit (1977)
LotR December is underway, and we begin in The Shire, in a hobbit hole in Hobbiton, with a Rankin/Bass animated classic that achieves in under 90 minutes what Peter Jackson failed to do with an entire 10 hour trilogy... If you're a LotR stan, feel free to clock our misinformed lore, and if you're not, join along with Middle-Earth-Virgin Emily in watching these epic adventure films for the first time! Down Down To Goblin Town!!

We also recorded this the DAY before the Spotify/Apple Wrapped came out, and to report back Emily's top artist was Greta van Fleet, Dara's was Hozier, and Jen's was The Script. And a huge thanks to those who've shared with us that The Swamp made it's way onto yours!

November 14, 2024 Speed
Covering an objectively fire movie during bad movies month, sorry! We didn't realize only the sequel was lame. Turns out Keanu reeves as a bomb squad cop with a buzz cut is really doing it for us this week. Sandra Bullock's wig? Not so much.
