31: Do Not Support These Boiz Oct 06, 2023

Show notes

Tim and Guy wax lyrical up top about the Midas touch they have on any media organization they do business with before diving into the meat and potatoes of a brand new movie: Fast 5, aka Fast 5ive.

The movie with the biggest F in show business has both of our hosts excited. The location is singular, the stakes are clear, the stunts are tactile. Does Fast Five (5ive) represent an exciting new direction in the Furi-verse where these movies are actually...fun to watch? Guy experiences either preemptive or remarkably delayed grief and nostalgia for the loss of Paul Walker, while The Rock arrives on the scene with smaller arms, less self-confidence and the absolutely insane choice to flit between saying sumbitch and son of a bitch. Will the movie always play this well? Or is this just the blush of a first watch? Only time will tell.

AJLT S02E11 w/ Alice Snedden Sep 29, 2023

Show notes

Cue up Andrea Bocelli's Time to Say Goodbye, because this eleven-episode dalliance with old friends and enemies is coming to its inevitable conclusion. What better way to see off the gals than with a hallowed friend of the podcast, Alice Snedden!

All of Carrie's friends, new and old (mostly new), pack into her old apartment to remind us who has been introduced to the series and just how insufferable they are. Alice and the lads speculate as to who they would most and least like to sit beside, and even borrow some of Carrie's party games. Alice discusses relationships, both her own and those of the boys, birthing the concept for a hot new talk show for her to host. Kim Cattrall makes her long-awaited (and very isolated) return to the series, prompting speculation as to just how much she raked in for what was likely an hour-long shoot.

The only thing more stuffed than the And Just Like That finale is this episode of the pod.

AJLT S02E10 w/ Fern Brady Sep 25, 2023

Show notes

The boys are joined by the fantastic Fern Brady! An And Just Like That tragic whose relationship with the series goes all the way back to the non-canonical (but apparently related) series, Sex and the City. Guy is moved by Aidan's tears, Charlotte stands up for herself and Steve is running a clam and beer shack on Coney Island (from which Guy claims to have bought a beer IRL). Fern and the boys also discuss the more technical side of Che's stand up comedy and Fern shares her theory on why she has a hard time immersing herself in the stories of Nya and Lisa.

Family Time 7 Sep 22, 2023

Show notes

Guy is in bed with the flu, Tim is about to embark on a thirty-hour journey with a two-year-old, but one thing takes precedence over all of that—family.

We hear from Kris, a Wisconsinite who has reached out both in the present day and in the past, with a speculative fan theory about Fast X (written before the release of the actual movie). We then hear from Chris Marlton, one of our TWIOAT scholars who takes us on an illuminating and oftentimes hilarious (if you'll excuse our hubris) journey through his learnings from a FIFTH LISTEN THROUGH OF THE ENTIRETY OF THE PODCAST. Tim then shares a story of new knives and the noble security person from Queenstown Airport who helped him avoid a confiscation.

AJLT S02E09 Sep 18, 2023

Show notes

Miranda is worried about her son Brady because he is getting really good at making French fries, and the boys have reason to suspect he is rediscovering his true identity. In fact, his rediscovery of rats may even be the reason behind his romantic tryst with Lily (of Charlotte and Runkle fame), and before the end of the season, we just might see the ascendance of a new Rat Queen. Che Diaz is getting back into stand up, Herbert Wexley is showing his true colours, and while we still have time, Tim ranks the core characters in the...And Just Like That universe from most to least likeable: the results WILL NOT SHOCK YOU. We also run unnecessarily biological (yet still unlikely) analysis on a surfer dude's penis. And Tim curses (by saying Crud).

AJLT S02E08 Sep 15, 2023

Show notes

A bizarre, tension-free episode for Carrie and Aiden as they movie into Che's apartment after a five day fuck festival at some poor hotel. Speaking of Che, Tim's happy to see them and even dreams of watching a sitcom where Che balances their stand-up aspirations with a burgeoning veterinary career. This leads to a reflection on when—while pursuing a career in the arts—is the right time to turn in and admit defeat. Anthony is making homophobic firings while fielding bread calls on a French stick, and the introduction of a sartorial delight named Elliot delights both boys.

AJLT S02E07 w/ Chris Parker Sep 11, 2023

Show notes

Guy and Tim are joined by friend of the podcast AND friend of the gals, Chris Parker! Not only a dedicated fan of the non-canonical Sex and the City franchise but also a man who worships at the altar of Sarah Jessica Parker’s portrayal of Carrie Bradshaw.

While the show continues apace (with the reintroduction of Aidan!!!) Chris discusses his teenage years trying to sneak an episode of the show in after bedtime and his ideal day in Auckland with SJP. The boys also imagine a spin-off focusing exclusively on Anthony and the Hot Fellas bakery boys. Tim worries for the objectification of an Italian man with an enormous dick and everyone remembers a store in the Riccarton Mall called Granny Mays.

AJLT S02E06 w/ Greg Davies Sep 07, 2023

Show notes

In this week's episode of the show, the gals are inexplicably joined by a Bomb Cyclone! While in this week's episode of the podcast Tim and Guy are inexplicably joined by comedy titan, Greg Davies! Greg runs the lads through his discovery of and relationship to Sex and the City, with some surprising similarities to themselves. This conversation covers Greg's genuine disappointment at the show finding its feet, the exciting possibilities of a Che Diaz spinoff, some fascinating visual choices in how to represent a snow storm in Manhattan and why Herbert Wexley may be emerging as the season's villain. There is also a food comparison and much discussion as to how and why ‘And Just Like That…’ is like an occasionally delicious but wholly unpredictable, ever changing sandwich.

AJLT S02E05 Sep 03, 2023

Show notes

The boys are pulling from every piece of pop culture under the sun in this episode, a celebration of creativity but more importantly, the success of... And Just Like That as a show that has found its feet! After wading through an appraisal of Elton John as a musician (and an imagining of the sad day in which he dies), Guy spotlights the fantastic musical choices that have carried the show through the season so far. The looming failure of Che's sitcom hangs over the podcast, how do we feel about a character that Guy has been rooting against, finally brushing up against failure. Tim even flits with earnestness, as he states his case that the show is doing a good job of analysing minority representation in television. We've got penis pumps, vibrators and a congratulations for Mattress Pikelet.

AJLT S02E04 Aug 30, 2023

Show notes

After the disappointment of a middling third episode, the boys are back and more importantly, so is the momentum of And Just Like That. Steve is back, Harry can't cum, and Miranda bails out of a threesome. Bitsy von Muffling - a character given to us in an act of great generosity by Mattress Pikelet King swans through the episode with insane energy and a storyline altering dick pic.

Cameos by Candice Bergen and Gloria Steinem add an impressive gravitas and the show goes meta in its analysis of ageism.
