February 18, 2026 224. Wuthering Heights (1939 with Frances O'Connor)
The listeners spoke and you wanted Kristen and Emily on the Moors to talk about Heathcliff, Cathy, and 1939's Wuthering Heights.
But we couldn't just talk about the movie and Emily Bronte. We needed a Bronte expert. And who better to join us as a guest than the director of the Emily Bronte biopic Emily: Frances O'Connor! O'Connor, Kristen and Emily discuss Bronte's life, whether Heathcliff was a person of color, and why we love this petty story (and why Emily doesn't love it).
Emily also has a bittersweet announcement to make this episode.
Next Time: We're honoring the life and career of Diane Keaton with a discussion on 1987's Baby Boom.

February 04, 2026 Doctor Dolittle (1967)
Emily and Kristen wanted to do a makeshift Flop-uary and we're doing so by watching what many consider the worst Best Picture winner ever: 1967's Doctor Dolittle. Emily and Kristen break down how the movie got made (blame My Fair Lady), Rex Harrison's talk singing, and the host of issues that made this another expensive disaster for 20th Century Fox.
We ran into some issues, technical and personal, with this one. Our original guest Nathan Rabin wasn't able to join us after we had to rerecord but we'd love for you to buy his new book The Fractured Mirror. And apologies for getting this out late. It's been a week!

December 24, 2025 221. Top 5 Christmas Movies
We all made it to the end of 2025! This podcast did a lot to keep me sane this year. Chatting with Emily about these movies has meant a lot, and the fact that many of you stuck around for our hiatus...I can't say what it means to us.
As we prep for the new year we're doing an old standard: a top 5 on our favorite Christmas movies. We share the ones that make us think of the holiday season, and one pick from Emily shocks Kristen! We also read several of your favorites that you submitted.
We wish you all a safe and happy holiday and New Year! We'll be back on January 21st with all new episodes and ready to have the best 2026 ever. See you then.

December 10, 2025 220: Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer (1964)
The Christmas movie we'd planned to discuss last year finally gets its due as we're talking about the Rankin-Bass classic Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. It's just us this week and you know what that means: expect the unexpected. We go down some paths with this episode, from talking about the LGBTQ community this has fostered, to its disability storyline, and whether it's eschewing capitalism or not.

December 03, 2025 219. Gable & Lombard (1976 with Robert Matzen)
An episode literally four years in the making! Maybe even five. Who knows how long Kristen has been promising this episode but the day has finally arrived!
It was one of the most that ushered in the death knell for Old Hollywood biopics, and Carole Lombard biographer Robert Matzen joins Kristen and Emily to separate fact from fiction in Gable & Lombard! The trio talk about James Brolin playing Gable, the struggle of portraying Lombard accurately (and why Jill Clayburgh isn't the problem).
Be sure to drop your favorite Christmas movies into the comments and we'll read them on our last episode of 2025!

November 26, 2025 218. Coming Home (1978 with Lawrence Carter-Long) - Films of Resistance
Viva la resistance! We're closing the book on our Films of Resistance series as well celebrating the release of Kristen's latest book, Popcorn Disabilities, by talking about a movie looking at disabled activism.
The 1978 feature Coming Home attempted to tell an authentic story about the struggles disabled Vietnam War vets were experiencing. Along the way, it became a landmark for disabled representation in film. Guest Lawrence Carter Long joins us to talk about the movie's significance, Jon Voight's Oscar-winning performance, and more.

November 12, 2025 216. Dr. Strangelove (1964 with Jeff Ewing) - Films of Resistance Series
Viva la resistance! Over the next four episodes we'll be looking at how Old Hollywood talks about politics, independence and democracy and we jump into the Cold War 1960s with this Stanley Kubrick satire.
Dr. Strangelove is the de facto movie about the Cold War, though it's presented alongside a spate of movies specifically in 1964 looking at nuclear fears. Film critic Jeff Ewing joins Kristen and Emily to discuss America's fascination with nuclear weapons, Kubrick hate, and whether there's ever enough Peter Sellers.
