Episode 32: Yippee-Kay-Yule (Christmas (and Action, Apparently?) Movies)

Hey, everyone! It’s the most wonderful time of the year–time for us to wax poetic about our favorite holiday (and not-so-holiday) movies, as well as Alan Rickman and the Freemans (Morgan and Martin). We also want to wish all of our listeners a happy holidays, whatever your holiday of choice may be–Christmas, Chanukah, Kwanzaa, Candlenights, Yule, whatever you celebrate, we hope it’s a good one and that no one tries to blow up a building with you in it.

Episode 31: 2 Tangential 4 Television (Outtakes 2)

Hey, everyone! As you know, we talk a lot, and sometimes we get off on tangents that we decide don’t really fit in with the main episode, but we still like the chat and don’t want to totally toss it. And thus, our outtakes episodes are born.

Rescued from the cutting room floor: casting a “Somewhere In Time” remake; Erin dreams the first half of Cloud Atlas, starring Lance Bass and Anna Kendrick; Theo Rossi is super great; pop-punk, pop-PUNK, and POP-punk; what does a Snorlax feel like?; baby naming.

Episode 30: Night Shift Gets Cake (“Safety Not Guaranteed”)

Hey, everyone! This week we watched the movie “Safety Not Guaranteed”, and tried to make sense of time travel once again. Side points: That scene in “Labyrinth” where Sarah tries to figure out which door to go through; a short story James has to go on another side point to explain; Erin draws a picture.

Episode 29: It’s a Patriarchy, Get Used To It (Gilmore Girls Revival–SPOILERS)

Hey, everyone! This week we are talking about the only thing anyone has talked about this week–the Gilmore Girls Revival. One of us is a longtime fan of the show; the other has never seen it before but watched the revival anyway even though that breaks his Cardinal Rule Of Watching Things. Spoiler alert: This episode is full of spoilers.

Unabashedly Obsessed Episode 28: Rac Efron (THanksgiving)

Hey, everyone! It only seems right to post our THanksgiving episode a day early, ON THanksgiving, so you can listen to us while you drive over to your in-laws’ house for turkey. You’re hungry for this one, we know it. And if you weren’t hungry when you started, you will be by the end, because we just sit and talk about food for the better part of an hour.

Also discussed: Stuff we watch on TV at THanksgiving, Zac Efron’s little brother’s acting career, and the death of Vine and it’s impact on horses. Erin has a laughing fit.

We are THankful to Jamie Chahine for our theme song, “Did You Guys Know There Was a Ladder Down Here?”

Unabashedly Obsessed Episode 27: Fifteentuplets (Orphan Black)

Hey everyone! Today we’re gonna talk to you about Orphan Black, and we’ll do our best to avoid any major end-of-season 4 spoilers (mostly because Erin isn’t caught up yet so she can’t speak to anything after episode 5) but there are some spoilers for the previous seasons. So if you haven’t watched Orphan Black yet, go do that and then listen to this. (Seriously, Orphan Black is really good, go watch it. We’ll wait.) And we also talk about some other stuff including the comic series Saga and Tana French novels, because, well, come on, you’ve listened to us before. We can’t stay on topic for more than a few minutes.

Unabashedly Obsessed Episode 26: The Good, the Bad, and the REALLY Bad (Fanfiction)

Hey, everyone! We know it’s Election Week and people are feeling things. We address that at the top of the episode, but because we aren’t a political show and a lot of us could use some distraction right now, we bring you instead a scintillating discussion of fanfiction!

Unabashedly Obsessed Episode 25: Erin Needs a New Boyfriend (TV Deaths)

Hey everyone! This one is shorter than normal because our topic for today was meant to be a quick comment, but we aren’t very good at that and ended up having enough to make a whole episode out of.

There’s a spoiler warning at the top of the episode, but just in case: there are season 7 “The Walking Dead” premiere spoilers, as well as some death-spoilers from “Dexter”. So, you know, avoid this episode if you don’t want those.

Unabashedly Obsessed Episode 24: BOO! (Scary Movies)

Hey, everyone! In honor of All Hallows Eve, we talk about our favorite and least favorite scary movies, what does and doesn’t spook us, and we make some recommendations for you, the listener…all of which you’ve probably already seen but shhhhhh just pretend you haven’t.

Unabashedly Obsessed Episode 23: The Secret (of Time Travel) (“Somewhere In Time”)

Hey, everyone! This week, James and Erin watch the 1980 cinematic masterpiece “Somewhere In Time”, starring Jane Seymour and Christopher Reeve. Once you get past how sad it is that Christopher Reeve died, it’s actually a pretty good movie. Well, no, it isn’t, it’s a terrible movie. But it’s a really good terrible movie. You know what? Just go watch it, you’ll see what we mean.
