Show notes

On today's Satellite Sisters podcast, Liz + Julie tackle the world. Julie would have skipped the show if she had won Powerball, but that was not to be. First the crazy tale of Sean Penn going to interview El Chapo. Everyone in the world has an opinion on this and so do we. We've also got some questions: What do you think his actual goal was? Would you feel differently if he was a journalist? And if you've already seen Narcos on Netflix, do we really need to see this movie get made too? Plus, Sean Penn, Julie Dolan would like to introduce you to Kim Jong Un in North Korea. Julie's got her insights about the H Bomb explosion this week. Julie and Liz both have their favorites on today's list in the New York Times Travel section 52 Places to Go in 2016. Mozambique, anyone? Bordeaux? Julie's thinking Scandinavia. How about you? Liz survives "The Week With No Shoes" despite being at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. Explanation, please. And have you heard of The Girls Lounge? Liz was there. Julie closes with our look at upcoming entertainment events: The Golden Globes, Madam Secretary, Downton Abbey and the premiere on Feb 8 of Samantha Bee's upcoming new show Full Frontal on TBS.

Lian Dolan and Julie Dolan are back with the first podcast of 2016. News, talk, laughs and TV Re-caps.

" All the fun, the fashion, the best lines and Carson's sex life on this week's re-cap. (TMI much, Carson?)

Bring back Tom! Please. Thanks to Audible for their support of Satellite Sisters. Try a Free 30 day trial at our special URL: http:///www.audiblepodcast.com/sisters . We recommend the delightful social history To Marry and English Lord by Carol Wallace. To Marry An English Lord From the Gilded Age until 1914, more than 100 American heiresses invaded Britannia and swapped dollars for titles - just like Cora Crawley, Countess of Grantham, the first of the Downton Abbey characters Julian Fellowes was inspired to create after reading To Marry An English Lord. Filled with vivid personalities, gossipy anecdotes, grand houses, and a wealth of period details-plus quotes and the finer points of Victorian and Edwardian etiquette - To Marry An English Lord is social history at its liveliest and most accessible.

Show notes

Losties, rejoice! The satellite Sisters talk to Exceutive Producers carlton Cuse and damon Lindelof mid-series. Be transported back to a moment in time of the glorious TV show that bonded us all.

And hear a really great answer to why the castaways were alway perfectly sweaty and coiffed rather than grimy, dirty and disgusting like they should have been. We miss you, Jack and Kate.

Satellite Sisters Final 2015 Podcast + Holiday Wishes Dec 20, 2015

Show notes

On today's Satellite Sisters, Lian, Monica, Julie and Liz tackle the world including: Julie's Star Wars report - Sending off three generations of her family in Dallas to see the new movie The Force Awakens complete with young Benjamin in his Storm Trooper costume. Liz reports on going to see Sisters starring Tina Fey and Amy Poehler at one of those fancy dine-in theaters. It reminded her a little too much of being on an airplane (recliner. tray, movie - you know the drill) but otherwise a good time was had by all. Most of all she enjoyed the trailers before the movie, tipping her off to new funny movies by and about women for release in 2016. Coming right up, How To Be Single with Dakota Johnson, Alison Brie, Leslie Mann and Rebel Wilson. Next, you can look forward to My Big Fat Creek Greek Wedding 2. You go, Nia Vardalos Finally, are you looking forward to The Boss? Another hilarious-looking turn by Melissa McCarthy about the wealthiest woman in the world who gets sent to prison for insider trading. When she gets out, she's got plenty to prove. "Nuff said. Monica had a series of unfortunate events that were car-related, weather-related and include words that are always funny together: "locked out" and "in pajamas." Liz has a "Ship of Fools" installment. Yes, people, it can get worse in her building. You have to the find comedy in sewage backups. Lian recommends steering clear of the play "Bridges of Madison Country". Who knew it was a musical? Well, some things are just not meant to be. Plus, she has kudos for the Satellite Sisters fans in Manhattan Beach, the staff at Book Soup at LAX, soccer icon Abby Wambach and tennis badass/Sports Illustrated Athlete of the Year Serena Williams. We love the annual neologisms list from The Washington Post. Are you going to enjoy? Probsolutely.
