    97: The Night Boat Feb 10, 2020
    Show notes

    Podcasts for dogs, or dogcasts, are all the rage. Emily listened and reports back, leading to a talk about Dog TV and whether animals can learn to see screens. Then writer Heather Havrilesky guests to tell Molly, Tess and Emily about love...exciting and new. Come aboard? We’re expecting you. It’s a fun free for all about The Love Boat and weird 70s television. Then it’s Spooky Love February with two stories of creepy love cults - The Doomsday Couple and Twin Flames Universe.

    Show notes

    It’s Spooky Love February at Night Call! First a followup about Wall-E and robot genders! Then it’s Ballie, the nonthreatening spokesthing robot surveillance ball shaped robot! Molly went to Britneyland and tells Emily and Tess about her journey there, prompting a fun chat about escape rooms, pop up museums and staring down a Britney infinity mirror at the last twenty years of your life! Then it’s the mystery of The Golden Suicides - revisiting Nancy Jo Sales’ Vanity Fair article about Theresa Duncan and Jeremy Blake. Was it a case of cult stalking, drug addiction, or both?

    95: Spe-Shes Jan 27, 2020
    Show notes

    Unnerving CGI January closes out with the truly awesome Species, which all three of us loved. Plus a healthy disagreement about The GOOP Lab. Emily defends Gwyneth, Molly calls Gwyneth the new age Joe Rogan, and Tess moderates pragmatically like a new age Judge Judy. Is The GOOP Lab sinister or silly? The "Wellness" discussion becomes a chat about Jane Marie's podcast The Dream, whose second season is covering wellness scams including essential oils and their "vibrations." Then it's back to weird CGI with a night call about the first ever computer animated character to express emotions, followed by a rollicking celebration of Species.

    94: The Lawnmower Women Jan 20, 2020
    Show notes

    Unnerving CGI January continues with The Lawnmower Man, the best Stephen King movie completely disavowed by Stephen King! Plus: what is Swedish Death Cleaning and should we all get into it? A trip back to our haunted doll roots with a talking Elsa from Frozen doll that cannot be vanquished. And we are joined by guest cyber-security activist Emma Cunningham for a chat about predictive policing and other pseudoscientific software. Should we get wrapped in Faraday bags forever? Find out on an all new Night Call!

    93: The Very Abyssal Episode Jan 13, 2020
    Show notes

    A night call about "very special episodes" ties into last week's discussion about spooky fridges. What are Tess, Molly and Emily's favorite traumatic very special episodes? Speaking of traumatic - it's the Seinfeld Sex Poll! Who won the one night stand choice poll: George, Jerry, or Kramer? Then it's time for self-care with human vagina candle Gwyneth Paltrow. Is Gwyneth harmful or just a troll? Speaking of trolls, Grimes and Elon Musk are procreating for some reason. And then it's nature horror: we stan the giant tumbleweed that wants to take over the earth. For the main event in our Unsettling CGI January this week it's James Cameron's The Abyss! What's up with this movie that everyone involved almost died making? Why is James Cameron so obsessed with almost dying underwater? Why aren't there more underwater space trucking movies? Why does the NTI look so good? (hint: puppet)? What made Ed Harris cry? All this and more on Night Call!

    92: STAR CATS TAKE NIGHT CALLYWOOD Jan 06, 2020
    Show notes

    Tess, Emily and Molly are joined by Molly's former co-host Alex Pappademas (North Mollywood) to discuss the most important movies of all time: Cats and Star Wars: The Rise Of Skywalker! But before that, it's the first Night Call mystery of 2020: THE SPOOKY FRIDGE! What does the spooky fridge know? Should it be exorcised, replaced, or made peace with like a wandering ghost? Plus an update about Disneyland's Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge from our friends at Podcast The Ride! Other than Splash Mountain, where did they repurpose the other retired animatronics from deadly stage show America Sings? And Emily tells us about the Museum Of Things in Berlin, prompting a chat about weird and niche museums like The La Brea Tar Pits, The Bunny Museum, and The Mushroom Museum! Then a roundtable with Alex Pappademas about the badness (and bright moments) of Star Wars: TROS, the greatness of Cats, and who really deserved to win the Jellicle Ball. Night Call, now and forever.
