128: Highway to Heaven or Highway to Hell: I, Tonya
Apr 02, 2024
Show notes
We are on the last March Madness episode and we're a little late, but it's worth the wait because we are joined by the lovely ladies from the Histories & Mysteries Uncovered Podcast. We are joining forces to cover I, Tonya starring Margot Robbie as Tonya Harding the infamous figure skater who was blamed for the assault against fellow Olympic hopeful Nancy Kerrigan. But this movie shines all kinds of light on the abuse Tonya faced from her mother Lavona, played by Allison Janney and her ex husband Jeff, played by Sebastian Stan and (arguably) from the public and media. In this episode: our guest Jess asks 'who wrote this?' After she's forced to say Daddy Harding, our guest Ash describes the person in this movie that she would let lick her face, Corinne suggests Tonya could have rifled through the dumpsters at Hooters for potential ice skating outfits and Tamara gets ice skating judgemental. We thoroughly enjoyed having the Histories and Mysteries Uncovered Ladies on this week's show and we hope that you lace up and skate by to experience I, Tonya with us.
127: Post-Sex Glasses of Milk & Crotch Protecting Tigers: I Love You Phillip Morris
Mar 26, 2024
Show notes
For this March Madness episode we have an exciting true crime rom-com with a surprise jailbreak ending. We are doing I Love You Phillip Morris, which stars Jim Carrey as Steven, a con-man who realizes, late in life, that he's gay and falls in love with Phillip Morris, played by Ewan McGregor. But it's a prison romance and once they're in separate penitentiaries can their love last? In this episode we discuss: how Tam will only sleep on beds that are out and proud (no hide-a-beds for her), how Corinne can overcome many obstacles while podcasting (except forgetting to watch the movie), and how much enthusiastic prayer it would take before Jesus says 'We're good!' The twists and turns in this movie have blown our minds, and we hope you join us for this 'master level blow job' movie that is I Love You Phillip Morris.
126: Goatee Flavor Savers & Let's Get Taxable: Adam's Rib
Mar 19, 2024
Show notes
It's the second episode of March Madness/aka Rom Com-ish movies with a true crime twist, and we are going waaay back to 1949 to cover Adam's Rib. It stars Spencer Tracy as Adam an attorney who's prosecuting a woman for shooting her husband. Adams' wife Amanda, played by Katharine Hepburn is also an attorney and places herself as the woman's defense because-FEMINISM! In this episode: we argue whether this movie is a banger or a sleeper hit (because it literally put one of us to sleep), wax poetic about the 'fun twists' the movie takes due to the Hays Code, and discuss the fashion of the time like-silvery, garnish, beacon hats and 'here for business ribbons.' The legal arguments in this movie go off the rails but we're hanging on until the end so we can share the bananas-a journey with you, that is Adam's Rib.
125: Band Aid for Bullet Holes & Reggie, Reggie, Reggie: I Love You To Death
Mar 12, 2024
Show notes
We are BACK in March Madness, where all of our movies have a true crime twist. This week we are covering, I Love You To Death. It stars a very bronze Kevin Kline as Joey, a philandering father and husband to Rosalie, played by Tracey Ullman. Rosalie is devoted to Joey until she catches him in the act, then she wants revenge and will look anywhere to get it. In this episode: we overuse heavy air quotes when talking about "fixing pipes" and "tool boxes", and Tamara forgets what decade she's in while Corinne explains the proper way to use a baseball bat as a weapon. The plot twist at the end of this movie has us tickled enough to say 'I Love You To Death' and we hope you agree.

Dear Gentle Listeners, We are taking a week off of recapping movies due to the passing of our beloved pod dog Melody. We are doing a short tribute to Melody and her last days. We hope you listen in even though we are deviating from our regularly scheduled programming. Hug your pets and episode drops March 5th. Content warning: pet death, euthanasia
124: Mink Merkins & Holster Hip Habits: Sister Act
Feb 27, 2024
Show notes
It's our final installment of Friend-uary and we have a Sister squared episode. First, Tam's big sis Denise makes a guest appearance to share all the sister antics they had growing up. Then, we cover the 90's classic Sister Act, which stars Whoopi Goldberg as Deloris, a lounge singer who's forced into witness protection at a strict Catholic church. At first it's torture, but Deloris uses her musical chops and charm, to turn their struggling choir around. In this episode: we argue whether Tone Loc songs could be made into hymns, debate if this movie would be improved by Sandra Bullock also being undercover, and Corinne invents a new word, Holos-unintentional solos, that we will ultimately put on merch at some point. We have enjoyed the 'com' with a little less 'rom' in our chosen movies this month, but there's plenty of sisterly love in this episode. So we hope you join us for Sister Act.
123: A Bajiggity Take 2, Electric Boogaloo: The Sweetest Thing
Feb 20, 2024
Show notes
Our next Friend-uary episode comes with an extra raunchy content warning, because we are covering The Sweetest Thing. It stars Cameron Diaz as Christina, a girl who doesn't want to settle down until she meets Peter, played by Thomas Jane, in a nightclub. Their brief encounter intrigues Christina so much that her friend Courtney, played by Christina Applegate, convinces her to semi-stalk him at a wedding that they're not invited to. In this episode we: wonder what logistics would be needed to accomplish cunnilingus while driving, realize the words 'boundaries' and 'consent' were largely unknown in the early aughts, and contemplate how long a 'food' that causes anal leakage could stay on the market. This movie is practically a time capsule so we hope you join us as we travel 20 years back to visit The Sweetest Thing.
122: A Moment of Evolved Glory & A Teenage Burrito : The Kissing Booth
Feb 13, 2024
Show notes
We are on the second episode of our Friend-uary month and our next 'juicy' movie is the Kissing Booth. It stars Joey King, as Elle who has (literally) grown up with her bestie Lee, played by Joel Courtney. They share everything, including a list of Bestie Rules, one of which is 'family members are off limits' when it comes to love. This poses a problem when Elle falls for Lee's older brother Noah, played by Jacob Elordi. In this episode: we solidify the fact that Corinne loves a bad boy but hates a baby man, Tam comes up with a few choice alternate titles for the movie such as-Temple of Tongue Fornication & A Mouthful of Spit Soup, and we decide that we will now live by the mantra 'No Pirouettes, No Pu**y.' So we hope you join us to see how that plays out and all the other potential mononucleosis nightmares at The Kissing Booth.
121: Bestie Cone of Silence & bass-b=ass: I Love You, Man
Feb 06, 2024
Show notes
We are back! Fresh from vacation and ready to jump into Friend-uary. That's the theme for this month's movies: rom-coms that are heavy in the friend department. Our first movie is I Love You, Man which stars Paul Rudd as Peter who's newly engaged to Zoey, played by Rashida Jones. Zoey has seven bridesmaids and Peter realizes he has no friends to fill his side of the wedding party and goes on a friend quest to find them. In this episode: we discuss strategically placed vomit, warn our 'gentle listeners' not to sit in the armchair with the lotion next to it, and explain how NOT to be a Tevin (aka a frosty haired chode). We are so thrilled to be putting out episodes and consider each of you a friend so we hope you join us for Friend-uary where we can honestly say "I Love You, Man.'
120: Miffing My Melon & Gender Reveal Christmas Trees: Single All The Way
Dec 26, 2023
Show notes
The last episode of the year is a holiday dangler, because it comes after Christmas but is still a spirited, good time. We are covering Single All The Way which stars Michael Urie as Peter, a content manager who found out right before Christmas that his boyfriend was married. He talks his friend Nick played by Philemon Chambers into accompanying him home for the holidays and posing as his beau, but things don't go as planned and force Peter and Nick to evaluate their friendship and more. In this episode: Corinne works the word chivalry into a hymnal, we talk about how petty you can be while flying first class, and admit that we are the celery and carrot of relationships (meaning we go good together but no one wants to see us fuc*ing). This is our first re-record EVER due to technical difficulties but we both agree that it was twice the fun, and the perfect end to our recording year. We want to remind our gentle listeners that we are taking the month of January off but we do hope you join us for the last episode of 2023, Single All The Way.
