Episode 41: Bling, Rings, and Very Expensive Things Feb 04, 2021

Show notes

This week, Megan and Gillian dive into the Netflix reality show Bling Empire, the spiritual successor to Crazy Rich Asians. We experience some mind boggling wealth and completely avoidable interpersonal drama, then we skip lightly through some deep-seated intergenerational trauma and completely understandable anxieties about being an adoptee. It's weird, it's enthralling, it's ridiculous. Come hang out with us!

Episode 40: Duggar-thon - Babies, Weddings, and Courtships, Oh My! Jan 28, 2021

Show notes

This week, Megan and Gillian get into the second half of Counting On, where apparently every woman is pregnant - moms, grandmas, daughters, sisters, wives, everyone is popping a baby out! We dish on Austin's nostril heredity, demonic spawn, and white lady baby name conventions. Come hang out with us!

Episode 39: Duggar-thon 2021 - Babies Having Babies Jan 21, 2021

Show notes

Megan and Gillian cover Counting On season 8 this week. It's a jam packed season, so this is part one, covering episodes 1 through 5. There are 800 pregnancies, a courtship, a pair of anniversaries and a partridge in a pear tree this season, and the Duggars just keep getting weirder and weirder. Come hang out with us!

Episode 38: Beware the Thin Lips of Judgement Jan 14, 2021

Show notes

This week, Megan and Gillian return to Plathville, and wow, it's a ride. The Plaths tell us their embarrassing stories and have some knock down, drag out fights happening in good old Cairo, Georgia. Come hang out with us!

Episode 36: Merry Duggar-thon and a Happy New Year Dec 31, 2020

Show notes

Megan and Gillian get back into Counting On Season 6, which mostly follows Joy from an outdoor generator engagement to a boring, stressful wedding. We have fun!! We also watched the newest baby special for Jinger and Jeremy's newest addition, Evangeline Jo Vuolo. Come hang out with us!

Episode 35: Merry Crisis, Everyone Dec 24, 2020

Show notes

Megan and Gillian dive into the Christmas Cinema Experience on Netflix this week, with one terrible movie and one that was a pretty good holiday romcom. A California Christmas and Holidate are both available on Netflix and are wild rides! Have a happy holiday everyone and stay safe!

Episode 34: Pilot, Plathville, Soldier, Spy Dec 17, 2020

Show notes

Episode 33: Duggar-thon 2020: Blood Duggars Dec 10, 2020

Show notes

This week, Megan and Gillian tackle season 5 of Jill & Jessa: Counting On. There's engagements, birthing of chicken wings, and your favorite cringe-worthy family dramatics. Derrick keeps gagging, Jessa beats Jill on sheer number of babies birthed, and Joy gets proposed to next to the soothing sounds of a generator in the freezing ass cold. Come hang out with us!

Episode 32: Duggar-Thon 2020 - Women Aren't Worth Much to Fundies Dec 02, 2020

Show notes

This week Megan and Gillian cover Season 4 of Jill & Jessa: Counting On, and it's another full season about Jinger. This time it's wedding planning and so many uncomfortable discussions about twenty somethings having their very first kiss. The men in this show just never know when to shut up about things they have no idea about - mansplaining in fundamentalism is rampant!
