Flushing is Burning: More Movie Chat Dec 01, 2023

Show notes

After a holiday week break, Grace is back with some news to talk about. She gets into the major news around the league, a few free agent signings and some postings from Japan, plus a bit on Shohei Ohtani. She also discusses the minor amounts of Mets news from the past couple of weeks, but nothing too exciting.

Then, she does her promised A League of Their Own chat (the movie, not the show). She has a free form talk about one of her favorite films, discussing the cast, the direction, the script, and the costuming. She also talks about the duality of the movie and show, and Penny Marshall's importance in film history.

Finally, she talks about the recent Scream VII news that's been all over the place, and talks about the Hollywood Blacklist of the 1950s. And finally, she does a double movie minute (to make up for being off last week), one to close out Noirvember and one to kickstart the holiday season.

Follow us on Twitter/X @FIBPod, on Instagram @FlushingisBurningPod, and email us at flushingisburning@gmail.com! If you have any thoughts on A League of Their Own, make sure to send them ahead of next week's episode!

Flushing is Burning: This Week in Footy Nov 16, 2023

Show notes

It's been a little week for baseball news but the extra two days Grace took to record this episode gave her a little more to work with. The manager merry-go-round ended with Mendoza leading the Mets, and even more shocking results elsewhere. Mendoza seems fine now but no one can know until the Mets take the field in 2024.And some reports are starting to create multiple pictures of what that Mets team might look like, for better or worse.

Then, with nothing much else to talk about, Grace gets into a topic she is very passionate about: the NWSL championship game played this weekend. Gotham has won their first trophy, and the first championship for the city (and its surrounding area) in over a decade. Grace gets into the nitty-gritty of the game and all the juicy, drama-filled storylines running throughout it. Let's go Bats!

Finally, Grace pitches an idea for a segment next week, and it requires you, dear listener, to be a passive (or active if you want) part of it. So go find your closest streaming/physical media copy of the film version of A League of Their Own and let's get to work. And finally, a movie minute featuring an all-time for Grace, in continuation of Noirvember 2023.

Next, we talk about Metropolitan Park—Steve Cohen’s vision for the future of the area around Citi Field—and why we think it’s a positive for the Mets and the community.

Finally, we wrap things up with Walk-off Wins, where each of us talks about what’s making us happy this week, baseball-related or otherwise.
