YAAAASVU

ONE. YEAR. DOWN.

That's right, kiddos. We pulled it off, and did it without murdering each other. In honor of the auspicious occasion, we're going back, back, way back to the very first episode of SVU, "Payback." We see our detectives as their baby selves, get the one and only appearance of Benson's mom, and talk about a swing-for-the-fences first case that showcases what makes the show so damn good. We also touch base regarding Alan Thicke, Eliot Spitzer, Julie Andrews, sing a few songs along the way...it's a blast, and we hope you think so, too! Thanks for sticking with us, cuz we ain't even close to done!!!

YAAAASVU is careening toward its one-year anniversary! But before that, Mal and Justin have a discussion about weird names, lies, and "this bitch..." when they cover S6E15 "Hooked." Hayden Panettiere has all the receipts and needs a serious audit in a case about naughty schoolgirls that isn't fit for anyone's fantasies (ya perv). Also, Christopher Meloni shirtless. 'Nuff said.

Also, subscribe to Cage Match Cast (@thecagematchcast)by good friend Fish. And not just to listen to the episodes Justin and Mal have guested on ;)

It's SVU meets Arabian Nights when Justin and Mal cover S8E10 "Scheherezade". It's stories within stories, secrets within secrets, and features a guest star Justin loves and another Mal confuses for John Madden. And for once, they don't hate everyone by the end of it. A bit of a long one, but we know you can handle it!

...A.K.A. Episode 36 - "Down With Tha Thickness". This week, Justin gets real mad at a white rapper, Mallory gets real mad at Madonna, and in the meantime they cover S10E6 "Babes". Nobody's happy when a simple yet spectacular murder transforms into a case about pregnancy pacts and cyber-bullying, but when the episode guest stars Debi Mazar, you can't help loving it.

"Does meth come in pills?" "How do we feel about Morgan Freeman, now?" "What's the place in the church called? You know, the place?" These are the deep philosophical topics brought on by this week's gay old discussion about S8E17 "Sin." Check it out, and hey--let us know how you feel about the TV show "Wings."

PUNCTUAL!!!

This week, Mal chooses S6E4 "Scavenger" and she and Justin take a deep dive into wannabe serial killers, with pitstops in butt dialing, deepest fears, and Humphrey Bogart. By the end, they may even come out with a richer friendship than they started. Or they're exactly the same. Listen and find out!

And for the record, stay off of people's Apple TV, Edwin!!!

Yeah yeah yeah, another late podcast. Well you'd be late, too, if you were handcuffed to a bed, or strung up to a ceiling fan. I mean, that's not what happened in real life, just in the SVU episode Justin and Mal cover: S3E10 "Ridicule". CBS mockery, a serious discussion about police station lunch amenities, a new character acronym, and a host of extra audio tidbits await. We may be late, but you need to listen NOW!!!

This week, amidst talk of blood, Fred Gwynne, and vying for a spot on Warner's brunch guest list, Mal and Justin cover S11E9 "Perverted". Olivia (or O as Mal writes it) is suspect this time around, as is Justin's understanding of bail. Join us, but more importantly, correct us.

Serial time again! Also Lake time again, which not everyone is stoked about... Nevertheless, Mal and Justin talk about S9E12 "Signature", guest starring Erika Christensen as an FBI profiler with demons to spare. Feng shui, Keanu Reeves, and Those Who Fight Monsters, all coming up in this week's episode. Thanks for listening!
