We’ve got horror movies. We’ve got a discussion about the meaning of self care. We’ve got Natasha Lyonne season. What more could you ask for from what we’ve been up to?
Episode 187 – Mean Girls
We’re tackling one of the world’s most quotable movies—Mean Girls, which brought us wonders like ‘fetch,’ Glen Coco, and Rachel McAdams’ incredible pronunciation of the word ‘disgusting.’ Join us as we discuss the pressures of girlhood, the source and manifestation of meanness, and whether this film’s feminist values are all they’re cracked up to be.
It’s been a minute, so we’re back with a longer-than-usual What We’ve Been Up to episode!
Episode 186 – American Gods
This week, we’re tackling Neil Gaiman’s 2001 novel American Gods, and its TV adaptation! What’s so American about it? What’s so godlike about it? And is the adaptation worth it?
After an unexpected absence, we’re back! What have we been up to in these long weeks away?
Welcome to another WWBUT, in which we discuss dubious interpretations of the word “fun,” the tragedy of this season of The Great British Bake-Off, and Missy does an increasingly stressed-out speedrun of her feelings on Squid Game.
Episode 185 – Russian Doll
We’re taking a closer look at Russian Doll, the Netflix original series about how not to die, and later, how to live.
After a brief absence brought to you by Missy’s harrowing weekend without internet, we’re back to talk about dreamy romances, eye-candy visuals, and good puzzle boxes.
Episode 184 – Daria
It’s a sick, sad world out there, so we’re turning to Daria, the 1997 animated series following a sardonic and cynical heroine who validated the alienation of an entire generation of teenagers.
After a brief break, we’re back with some book recs, some thoughts on movies, and the least spoiler-filled review of Werewolf By Night you can imagine.
