Two Girl Cinema Club

Actors as Directors (The Lost Daughter, Is This Thing On?, The Testament of Ann Lee)

Fri, 03 Apr 2026 08:00:00 GMT

This week on Two Girl Cinema Club, we’re focusing on actors who made the transition to directing. Before we dive into this week’s theme, Ailish shares her thoughts on Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man, and Hannah talks about Stopmotion and Clown in a Cornfield. We also talk about some upcoming releases and our plans to see The Drama opening weekend!

There have been many actors who have dipped their toes in directing, and we tackle a few of them in this week’s episode. We started with Maggie Gyllenhaal and her directing debut with The Lost Daughter. This one felt appropriate since we recently watched The Bride!, and we had mixed feelings. The Lost Daughter has a completely different feeling compared to Gyllenhaal’s most recent endeavour, but both films felt a bit underdone to us. We actually really enjoyed Dakota Johnson in this role which isn’t something we saw often. Is This Thing On? is Bradley Cooper’s third film as a director. Each of his films have had very different vibes as well, and Is This Thing On? has the most casual/lighthearted feeling of the three. We both enjoyed this one, but we felt the separate paths of Laura Dern and Will Arnett’s characters could have been expanded on. Adding The Testament of Ann Lee by Mona Fastvold is a little bit of a stretch, but Fastvold has acted in the past. This was a film we had been waiting to see for months, so when we finally saw it on streaming, we couldn’t pass it up! After watching, it’s clear the calls for an Oscar snub are warranted.

Remembering the Greats: Diane Keaton (Annie Hall, Father of the Bride, The First Wives Club, Book Club)

Fri, 27 Mar 2026 08:00:00 GMT

This week on Two Girl Cinema Club, we remember the late, great, Diane Keaton who we lost nearly six months ago. Before we discuss her filmography, Ailish gives her thoughts on Project Hail Mary, and the play, Dog Day Afternoon that she saw in NYC. Ailish was finally able to watch Materialists, so we were able to properly discuss the film. Hannah also shared that TMZ unfortunately spoiled the twist in The Drama when the movie wasn’t even set to be widely released for another week.

Sadly, we lost multiple icons in 2025 and Diane Keaton was one of them. We started this week’s episode by watching Annie Hall which neither of us had seen. This was a cute and funny film overall, but it really is marred by the allegations and controversies surrounding Woody Allen. Since he made himself the main character, it’s really difficult to fully separate him from this classic. Keaton takes a backseat in Father of the Bride, but still shines bright. This is such a cute film and Steve Martin is the classic, stressed dad. The First Wives Club is one of the great films about female friendships. It’s hard to believe these ladies aren’t actual lifetime friends because their chemistry is unbelievable! Lastly, we watched Book Club which is another sweet film that explores female friendships and relationships as we age. Can we recruit a couple more ladies to join our future book club?!

Celebrating Paul Thomas Anderson + Oscars Talk and The Bride! (Magnolia, Boogie Nights, Licorice Pizza)

Fri, 20 Mar 2026 08:00:00 GMT

Paul Thomas Anderson won big at last weekend’s Oscars with One Battle After Another. To celebrate this, we decided this week’s theme should explore some films from his career! Before we dive into that, we recap some highlights from the Oscar ceremony and talk about some of the big winners. Ailish also shared some industry news and both of us gave our takes on Maggie Gyllenhaal’s The Bride!. While we weren’t overly enthusiastic about this film as a whole, we did appreciate the creativity and the idea of new ideas coming to the big screen.

We began our PTA theme with Boogie Nights. It’s honestly difficult to believe that he wrote and directed this when he was about 26 because it’s such an impressive film. We love Mark Wahlberg in this and wish he did more films with this kind of energy. Magnolia is a film that we had both heard a lot about, especially after the release of Weapons. This is an example of a lot going on at the same time, but the way it’s all presented and how it comes together makes it effective and allows things to become more clear. Tom Cruise is everything in this and it makes us excited for Digger later this year. Unfortunately, Licorice Pizza did not work for us. The age-gap romance was disturbing to us and the overall film didn’t flow like we’d hoped.

Revisiting the 2025 Oscars Part 2 + Love is Blind Reunion (I’m Still Here, Dune: Part 2, A Complete Unknown)

Fri, 13 Mar 2026 08:00:00 GMT

We’re continuing to revisit last year’s Best Picture nominees with the Oscars happening this Sunday. Before we dive into our thoughts on that, we recap the first two episodes of Euphoria Season 2 and the Love is Blind Reunion. After last week’s finale, we were eager to see how the couples are doing and there were definitely some bombshells dropped! We also gave our review of Pillion, and Ailish shared her take on Blue Moon with Ethan Hawke.

In preparation for the Oscars this Sunday, we give our Oscar predictions. While we make choices based on how we’d like to take home the prize and who we actually think will, there aren’t any nominees that we wouldn’t be happy with. It was a great year for films! Taking a step back to last year’s Best Picture nominees, we watched three more films this week. We rewatched A Complete Unknown which we felt got slighted last year with zero wins. Timmy really did portray Bob Dylan fantastically and he probably should have taken home the award. We also watched Dune: Part 2 which also stars Chalamet. Visually, this film is incredible and we can’t wait to watch the third installment on the big screen this winter. Lastly, we watched I’m Still Here for the first time. This was a harrowing account of a terrible time in Brazil’s history and it was depicted with emotion and intrigue.

Revisiting the 2025 Oscars + Love is Blind Season 10 Review (The Brutalist, Anora, The Substance)

Fri, 06 Mar 2026 09:00:00 GMT

This week on Two Girl Cinema Club, we flashback to last year and watch some of the 2025 Best Picture nominees. Before we dive into some of those films, we give a thorough review of Love is Blind season 10 now that the finale has dropped. We reveal a couple connections to some of the people featured on this season as fellow Ohioans, and give all our thoughts on which couples we think will last. If Christine and Vic don’t last forever, we’ll actually lose our minds! Ailish brought some industry news and award talk after the Actor (SAG) Awards last weekend, and Hannah watched a few movies this week. She gives an honest review of Scream 7 as a fan of the franchise, and Annihilation with Natalie Portman.

If you remember our podcasts from this time last year, you’ll remember that we loved The Substance and Anora. We’re happy to report that after rewatching these films, they still really hold up for us and we actually think we like them more after watching again. There’s still some debate within ourselves on whether we think Mikey Madison or Demi Moore should have won the Oscar, but both of them give great performances in these films. It might be hard to believe, but watching The Substance was almost more disturbing at times as we watched it at home! The Brutalist was a very discussed film last year, but it was one neither of us were able to see. After watching over three hours of this, we have to say we aren’t fans. Adrian Brody did a great job in his role, however, the role didn’t give very much. Make sure to listen next week as we give all our Oscars predictions and review some more films from last year’s Best Picture nominees!

Black Stories Part 2 (The Butler, How Stella Got Her Groove Back, Get Out, Moonlight)

Fri, 27 Feb 2026 09:00:00 GMT

This week, we’re celebrating Black History Month with Black Stories Part 2. We really have a great mix of genres and vibes here that made this week a fun one. Before we dug into our theme, Hannah shared her thoughts on her rewatch of Marie Antoinette and The Shape of Water. We also talked a little bit about our Oscar predictions after the BAFTAs, and talked about some of the criticisms of Sirat and our feelings on the film.

Moving into Black Stories Part 2, we started with Get Out. This is a pretty iconic film that uses the horror genre to dive into some heavy discussions on race. We agreed this was our second favorite Jordan Peele film with Us being our top pick. How Stella Got Her Groove Back is a fun, romantic film that tries to send your emotions on a roller coaster. Whoopi Goldberg is shining in yet another supporting role, and it’s hard to deny the sheer beauty of Angela Bassett and Taye Diggs on screen.Our last two films of the week are pretty heavy. The Butler tackles the struggles that Black Americans have faced for decades and shows two different perspectives between generations. The heavy themes and visuals make this one a difficult watch at times, but we felt it would have been stronger if the focus was primarily on the Cecil character. Finally, we have Moonlight. What more can we say about his gut wrenching film? Some criticisms of this one say the main character lacks depth, but we feel the exact opposite and love how he is portrayed through the three stages of the film.

The “Wuthering Heights” Experience + Sandra Bullock RomComs

Fri, 20 Feb 2026 13:50:43 GMT

This week on Two Girl Cinema Club, we share all our thoughts on “Wuthering Heights”. Much to our surprise, enjoying the movie is a controversial take! Hannah also watched Reality Check: Inside America’s Next Top Model and Love is Blind Ohio. We watched ANTM when it originally aired, so maybe we have a different perspective on the early 2000s reality tv, but we aren’t hopping on the ANTM hate train. Ailish also shared that Mia Goth and Andrew Scott are set to film FONDA and Jacob Elordi is rumored to have been offered James Bond by Amazon.

Sandra Bullock was America’s darling for a couple decades and continues to be a household name today. This week, we watched a couple early romcoms of hers and the one that’s the most popular. Hope Floats is one of Bullock’s earliest films and it stars the iconic Gena Rowlands. This one didn’t really work for us overall, and we didn’t feel the chemistry or script worked well. We were surprised to see Forest Whitaker directed this film after watching Waiting to Exhale last week! While You Were Sleeping actually has a very strange and creepy plot, but it’s excused by how sweet Bullock is. It’s a pretty classic 90s romcom that makes for a good comfort watch. Finally we have The Proposal. This film really put Ryan Reynolds on the map and it is arguably his best role. Bullock looks unbelievable in this film, but the jokes didn’t land as hard for us this time around.

Breakup Films (Blue Valentine, Marriage Story, Waiting to Exhale,Someone Great) + The Smashing Machine Review

Fri, 13 Feb 2026 09:00:00 GMT

Continuing with our February theme, Two Girl Cinema Club explored some Breakup Films this week. Some of these films were more iconic than others, but they all brought some unique topics and themes into our conversation. We’re also prepping for “Wuthering Heights” and can’t wait to see it in IMAX this weekend. Ailish also was able to see The Moment and gave her thoughts on Charli xcx’s new endeavor.

We start Breakup Films week with Someone Great. This was very millennial, and not in a good way. Even though it was released in 2019, it felt really dated overall and we would have believed it if someone told us it was filmed in 2002. Waiting to Exhale was a blindspot for both of us, and we were glad we added it to our list. The cast of ladies were relatable and gorgeous, and we loved the inner dialogue of the women playing as a voiceover throughout. Marriage Story and Blue Valentine are in the same vein, but the latter was definitely more impactful. There’s something about the casting and script that feels so much more natural in Blue Valentine, and it’s impossible to not feel the chemistry between Michelle Williams and Ryan Gosling.

Tragic Love Stories (Ghost, Titanic, A Walk to Remember, The Fault in Our Stars)

Fri, 06 Feb 2026 09:00:00 GMT

February is here and we’re celebrating the month of love by watching some tragic love stories unfold on film. Before we talk about these tear-jerkers, we catch up on a few other films we watched this week. Ailish rewatched Uncut Gems and The Place Beyond the Pines, Hannah watched Megan 2.0 and Black Bag for the first time, and we chatted about the rumors surrounding the Safdie Brother’s split.

Ghost is a film with two stars at the center who were at the top of their game. If you say the potter’s wheel scene doesn’t make you swoon, you’re definitely lying! Whoopi Goldberg really steals the show here, but the longing and sorrow depicted by Demi Moore and Patrick Swayze really pulls at your heart strings. It’s hard to believe that the same person who created Avatar, created the masterpiece that is Titanic. What more is there to even say about this film? Leo and Kate Winslet have never looked better, and the score takes your breath away. Our last two films play on your emotions in multiple ways because terminal illnesses come into play. A Walk to Remember is the classic story of young love that is tragically broken apart too soon. Mandy Moore plays the preacher’s daughter well, and Shane West is the perfect bad boy turned good. Finally, we have The Fault in Our Stars. It’s very clear upon rewatching as an adult that this is based on a YA novel. This might have struck us as teens, but it doesn’t translate now that we’re slightly older.

Matt Damon Week (We Bought a Zoo, Behind the Candelabra, Ford v Ferrari, The Rip)

Fri, 30 Jan 2026 09:00:00 GMT

This week on Two Girl Cinema Club, we celebrate Matt Damon! Before we watch a small sampling of his career, we talk briefly about Justin Bieber announcing his Grammy performance and the Wuthering Heights press tour and online discourse. Ailish shares her thoughts after a rewatch of One Battle After Another after watching it with her dad, and Hannah gives her take on Hedda. We’re also joined by a quick special guest to get their take on Sinners and its Oscar chances, give some thoughts on the awards race in general, and talk more about The Ugly Stepsister since Hannah was able to watch it.

We have to be honest, Matt Damon is a household name, but he isn’t the first that comes to mind when we think about big movie stars. Well we were proven wrong this week after watching four of his films and realizing the man has range. We began with We Bought a Zoo which is a wholesome family film that really shows Damon’s fatherly side. Was he even acting here? We can absolutely see why the single moms at school were fawning over him because he’s the husband every woman would love to have. Behind the Candelabra takes us in a completely different direction where we see a side of Damon we’ve never seen before. We have to give a special shoutout to Michael Douglas who has unbelievable chemistry with Damon here! Ford v Ferrari is another role where we see Damon depict a real person. Even though neither of us are big car or racing fans, this is a film we think everyone would be entertained by. Lastly, we watched Damon’s newest film with Ben Affleck, The Rip. You can definitely tell this is a Netflix film, but Damon and Affleck still give great performances.

Broadway Musicals + 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple (Hamilton, Little Shop of Horrors, tick, tick…BOOM!)

Fri, 23 Jan 2026 09:00:00 GMT

This week on Two Girl Cinema Club, Broadway comes to our living rooms as we explore some popular musicals. Before we dive into those, we discuss our thoughts on 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple and If I Had Legs I’d Kick You. Since it was a long weekend, we were both able to catch a matinee showing of The Bone Temple, and we were left wondering exactly where the final film in the trilogy is going to go. We both enjoyed the film, but feel you have to look at the 28 Years Later films separately from 28 Days Later. Last week, Hannah watched If I had Legs I’d Kick You, and Ailish was able to watch it so we could discuss it on the pod. There are definite comparisons to Die My Love, and we can’t get over Rose Byrne’s memorable performance. Ailish also caught up with The Ugly Stepsister and Hannah watched a couple documentaries and Bone Lake.

When a musical is done right, it shows on the stage and the screen. Surprisingly, neither of us had seen Hamilton even though it was one of the most acclaimed musicals of all time. Since this was a filmed version of the stage performance, we really felt the magic of the original production and were so impressed by the actor’s abilities. On the flip side, we have tick, tick…BOOM! Unfortunately, this one didn’t land for seven though we did feel that Jonathan Larson’s story is compelling. Maybe the original, one-man show would’ve worked better, but this film adaptation was just trying to do too much. Lastly, we have Little Shop of Horrors. We might have a bit of a soft spot for this musical since we have fond memories of seeing our local high school production when we were in grade school, but this was our first time watching the film version. It’s so cute and well done, and the songs really stick with you!

We Love LA! (Mulholland Drive, Nightcrawler, Boyz n the Hood, Tangerine)

Fri, 16 Jan 2026 09:00:00 GMT

In this episode of Two Girl Cinema Club, we take a trip to the Westcoast! The films we cover this week showcase Los Angeles and prove why filmmakers are inspired by the city again and again. Before we dive into the City of Angeles, we touch on some highlights from the Golden Globes, some industry news, and two extra movies we watched this week: If I Had Legs I’d Kick You and Oh, Hi!

We Love LA! To start this week’s theme, we watched Mulholland Drive. This is an iconic film by David Lynch that left us confused, mesmerized, and Googling fan theories. We both agreed that this neo-noir warrants a second viewing to really understand it. Nightcrawler is arguably one of Jake Gyllenhaal’s best performances. He’s so good in these freaky little roles, and the concept keeps you engaged the entire time. Tangerine is one of Sean Baker’s well-known, early films, and it was all shot on an iPhone. At first, it definitely showed and we weren’t sure about the acting/script. As it went on, the film grew on us, but there were some characters and storylines that worked better than others. Lastly, we have Boyz n the Hood. We couldn’t believe this film was made by a 23-year-old John Singleton. It’s one that doesn’t really have a solid plot, but because it feels so real, you end up so emotionally invested by the end. A true gem with some great performances.

Timothée Chalamet Week + Stranger Things Finale (A Rainy Day in New York, Hot Summer Nights, Bones and All, Call Me by Your Name + Critics Choice Awards Talk)

Fri, 09 Jan 2026 09:00:00 GMT

It’s Timothée Chalamet Week in honor of Marty Supreme and the awards race. The Critics Choice Awards happened last week, so we briefly touched on some of the surprise wins, including Timmy for Best Actor. We also discussed some of the other films we caught up with over the week. Ailish watched the Netflix documentary, The Perfect Neighbor, and Hannah watched Challengers, Uncut Gems, and Bad Guys. It was a great time to talk about Uncut Gems since there have been so many comparisons to what the Safdie Brothers did there and what Josh Safdie did with Marty Supreme. We also talk about the, very disappointing, Stranger Things finale episode and “Conformity Gate”. Is anyone else still holding out hope that a 9th episode will come, or are we just being delusional?

Our theme this week was Timothée Chalamet, so we watched some films where he played smaller roles and his breakout film. We started with Hot Summer Nights which we had both heard of, but didn’t know too much about. Unfortunately, this one wasn’t great even though Timothée did give a good performance. A Rainy Day in New York is one of the most controversial films in Timmy’s filmography because of the allegations against Woody Allen. While this film had some really beautiful settings, the writing fell flat for us and the overall story just didn’t work at all. Bones and All was definitely better compared to the first two we watched. Again, we thought Timothée gave a great performance, but there was something missing for us. The film that made Timothée Chalamet a star is definitively Call Me by Your Name. Ailish had never seen this one before, but this was a rewatch for Hannah. This one blows us away from beginning to end and it’s clear to see that Timmy was a star right from the beginning.

Harry Potter Holiday Part 3 (The Order of the Phoenix, The Half-Blood Prince, & The Deathly Hallows 1 & 2 + Four Christmases)

Fri, 02 Jan 2026 09:00:00 GMT

We’re back after a holiday break for the last part of Harry Potter Holiday! We meant to break this into two parts, but we both were plagued by sickness for a bit longer than we anticipated. In this episode, we also cover Christmas Evil, HIM, and Hannah drops some news on an unexpected collab between M. Night Shyamalan and Nicholas Sparks. We also watched Four Christmases to round out the season since it’s one of our favorite Christmas films. This one is a little controversial and doesn’t have the best reviews, but we think this one is so funny and the chemistry between Reese Witherspoon and Vince Vaughn is great.

We had a lot to cover this episode since we had four Harry Potters to discuss! It had been a little while since we watched The Order of the Phoenix and The Half-Blood Prince, so our memories were a little fuzzy. The holidays took a lot out of us okay?! We then moved onto Parts 1 & 2 of The Deathly Hallows which really blend together to make one, epic finale. We really can’t speak enough on the chemistry of this cast and how the friendship between Harry, Ron, and Hermione makes the movies what they are. When one isn’t there, you really feel something is missing, even though the characters are still good in their own right. Comparing Harry Potter and Stranger Things is really interesting because they’re examples of child actors growing into great and not so great adult actors.

Theater Thursday: Marty Supreme + Stranger Things Chapters 5-7 Review

Thu, 01 Jan 2026 18:32:58 GMT

We’re back after a holiday break for a New Year’s Day episode! As planned, we went to see Marty Supreme as soon as we could after Christmas Day. We both loved this movie and were so glad that it held up to the hype. Timothée Chalamet was so convincing as Marty Mauser that we completely believed we were watching the story of a man named Marty instead of Timmy playing a role. This was something you absolutely have to see in theaters, so if you haven’t made it yet, do not wait for this to come to streaming!

We also caught up with the second Stranger Things drop. Unfortunately, we’ve been feeling a little disappointed with this season. After the first drop, we were left in anticipation about Will and his powers, but that deflated pretty quickly in Chapters 5-7. If you’re listening to this now, you might have already watched the finale episode since it dropped last night, but we won’t discuss that on the podcast until next week. We’re hoping it makes for a satisfying, or at least interesting, end to this series, but we’re not feeling super confident about that right now!

Harry Potter Holiday Part 2 (The Prisoner of Azkaban and The Goblet of Fire + National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation)

Fri, 19 Dec 2025 09:00:00 GMT

This week, we watched the third and fourth movies in the Harry Potter series to continue with Harry Potter Holidays. We also caught up with a couple other Christmas classics and some other films that have been on our watchlists. Hannah watched some holiday horrors in Terrifier 3 and the 1974 Black Christmas. She also watched Eyes Wide Shut which falls into the Christmas category loosely. Ailish watched The Santa Clause and gave Wake Up Dead Man a rewatch. The latter was still entertaining, but we still can’t get over the uproarious laughter from the theater when we watched it at the Chicago International Film Festival. Ailish also watched Phantom Thread which, unfortunately, didn’t live up to the hype for her.

Our main watches this week were Harry Potter and The Prisoner of Azkaban and The Goblet of Fire. These films are two of our favorites in the franchise, and for good reason. There’s so much going on in both of these, and the details really make all the difference. It’s been so fun to watch these films in such quick succession because you really notice the changes in quality and the characters. For our holiday pick, we watched National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation. If you haven’t seen this one, we’d be absolutely shocked. This one is a classic and the jokes never stop. We definitely laugh through this episode which is a nice contrast to last week’s heavy episode.

Harry Potter Holidays Part 1 (The Sorcerer’s Stone and The Chamber of Secrets + The Family Stone, Hamnet, & Jay Kelly)

Fri, 12 Dec 2025 09:00:00 GMT

We’re kicking off the holiday season with a Harry Potter marathon! These are books and movies we grew up with, and they always are staples around Christmastime. We also talk a little bit about the Golden Globe nominations, the Warner/Netflix/Paramount deal, the new Zendaya and Robert Pattinson movie “The Drama”, and Hannah’s rewatch of Silver Linings Playbook. Luckily, Hamnet came to a theater near us so we were able to catch a showing. This film moved us both so deeply and we were unbelievably impressed by Jessie Buckley’s performance. Jay Kelly also dropped on Netflix earlier this week, and we couldn’t wait to watch. This one definitely felt very true to the industry experience, and we felt that George Clooney and Adam Sandler gave raw performances. While we heard that this one might not completely be understood by those not in the film industry, we found it to be very relatable as everyone ages and reflects on their life.

This week, we started our Harry Potter marathon and watched The Sorcerer’s Stone and The Chamber of Secrets. Since these are the early films, the CGI isn’t the best, but that’s just a sign of the times. These films are so magical, and we’re excited to watch the rest of them over the next few weeks! We also continued to add our holiday film into the mix and chose The Family Stone this week. We know this one is a little divisive, but we can’t really see why. If you haven’t seen this one in a while and weren’t a fan, it’s definitely time to give it a second chance!

Stranger Things Chapters 1-4 Review (+ A Very Jonas Christmas Movie & The Roses)

Fri, 05 Dec 2025 09:00:00 GMT

This week kicks off our holiday episodes! Of course we had to add the first four episodes of Stranger Things in there as well since they dropped last week, and we caught up on some other films we logged on Letterboxd. Ailish was able to watch After the Hunt, we continued our conversation from last week when Hannah watched it. It really is easier to discuss this film after you’ve seen it since there are so many plot points, but overall, this one didn’t work for us. Ailish also watched Priscilla, and Hannah watched The Conjuring: Last Rites and Caught Stealing.

Like everyone else, we were excited to watch the first Stranger Things drop over Thanksgiving. The first couple episodes were a little slower, but it definitely picked up in the last two episodes and we can’t wait for the next drop on Christmas! The Roses came to Hulu, so we both added it to our list. While this movie was funny and made us laugh at times, it really dragged and the end was really rushed. It was a cute film, but not one we could see ourselves revisiting. Our first holiday film of the month was A Very Jonas Christmas Movie. We’ve been fans of the Jonas Brothers since they came on the scene and we loved their old show. This film was a great time and we actually had a lot of real laughs throughout. Yes, we’re very biased since we grew up with these guys, but we felt this was one we would revisit next year, or even again this season!

Erotic Desires (356 Days, Fifty Shades of Grey, Original Sin, Cruel Intensions)

Fri, 28 Nov 2025 09:00:00 GMT

In our final week of Naughty November, we explore Erotic Desires. To start, we talk about some films we watched in the past week. Hannah saw Wicked: For Good. After the Hunt, and Materialists, and Ailish watched Train Dreams. We also discussed some recent trailers that were released and what they made us think of some upcoming releases.

Erotic Desires week ended up falling a little bit flat which was disappointing to us. We honestly can’t even give a moment for a review for 365 Days because it was so awful. Yes, Covid was going on when this was released, but were we really that desperate? It made Fifty Shades of Grey look really good, which is a real stretch. Fifty Shades is so different from 356 Days given that it was written by a woman, but the movie as a whole isn’t a knock out. The look of the film and the soundtrack is great, and it really does fit in well with the book. Cruel Intentions is iconic. What more is there to say? The cast, the look of the film, and the overall vibe of this really resonates with us. On a completely different note, we unfortunately had Original Sin on this list. With Antonio Banderas and Angelina Jolie in the cast, you would think this one was a no brainer, but it actually fails miserably.

Lovers for Hire (Angel, Mini’s First Time, Lovelace, No Hard Feelings)

Fri, 21 Nov 2025 09:00:00 GMT

It’s week two of our Naughty November and the theme is Lovers for Hire! Before we review the four films, Hannah shares her thoughts on Warfare, Hell of a Summer, and Gonjiam: Haunted Asylum. Ailish started watching Monster: The Ed Gein Story and plans to give another update when she finishes the series, and we both discuss the Marty Supreme marketing plan.

Our films under the Lovers for Hire theme range from the 80s to just a couple years ago. We started with Lovelace which we were both pretty disappointed by. There was so much potential to really tell a good story, but the focus didn’t seem like it was actually really on Linda Lovelace. What exactly was this film trying to accomplish? Angel is one we’ve heard about many times since it’s one Heather McDonald often references in Juicy Scoop. Yes, it was pretty cheesy and cliché, but it was an entertaining watch. Mini’s First Time pretty much knocked us off our couches. This film took turns we never saw coming and had a cast that would shock you. How had we never heard of this one before now? Finally, we rewatched No Hard Feelings. If you’ve been listening to us for a while, you’ll remember when we saw this one in theaters, and it honestly holds up well on another watch.

Theater Thursday: Rental Family, It Was Just an Accident, and Sentimental Value Reviews

Thu, 20 Nov 2025 09:00:00 GMT

*SPOILERS INCLUDED*

This week’s Theater Thursday covers three films we saw at the Chicago International Film Festival. Now that these movies are getting released, we can give more of our thoughts on them and do proper reviews. Spoilers are ahead, so be sure to watch these before listening to this episode!

Rental Family didn’t pack a huge punch for us, but it was a heartwarming film that is great for a Thanksgiving trip to the theater. Overall, this one felt a little too busy and we felt it would have been stronger and more compelling had it stuck to one main family Brendan Fraser was working with. It Was Just an Accident has gotten a lot of critical acclaim and is a major contender for awards season. This is a deeply personal film for Jafar Panahi which is something very helpful to know going in. Since we tried to go into the films we saw at the festival pretty blind, the political importance and parallels to Panahi’s life were a little lost on us. With that being said, it’s one we hope to revisit in the near future. Sentimental Value is another awards contender. We couldn’t get over the cast chemistry in this one and felt there was so much to explore between family dynamics, personal relationships, and finding your place in the world. Plus, we love a film where the home is a character in and of itself.

Be sure to find these films in a theater near you!! If you love us, leave us comments on social media and YouTube, or write a review with your 5-star rating. If you write us a nice review, DM us and we’ll send you some of our new stickers! Don’t forget to follow our socials, and find us on Spotify, YouTube, and Apple Podcasts.

Inappropriate Age Gap Relationships (The Graduate, Lolita, Palo Alto, May December)

Fri, 14 Nov 2025 09:00:00 GMT

This week on Two Girl Cinema Club, we begin Naughty November with some films about age gap relationships that cross the line. Before we get into the films, we talk some industry news. Last week, it was announced that Jennifer Lawrence and Emma Stone will be making a Miss Piggy movie with Cole Escola writing the script. There are so few details about this that we’re not really sure what to think or how these stars would portray Miss Piggy. We also talk about some of the recent allegations that have been made about Damien Leone on the Terrifier sets, and OUTER DARK which is set to go into production next year and stars Jacob Elordi and Lily-Rose Depp. Hannah also has been catching up with Secret Lives of Mormon Wives and we discuss the future of reality tv.

Some of the films we cover this week are controversial, but also acclaimed and popular. To start, we discussed Palo Alto which was made before the fall of James Franco. Watching this now, seeing Franco in this role is very unsettling given the allegations that were made against him. The Graduate deals with an age gap affair, but nothing illegal is happening here. The acting here is so good, but we feel the movie lost its emotional tone as it headed into the third act. Lolita (1997) is based on a highly popular novel and the relationship depicted is disturbing to say the least. While we haven’t read the book, it’s our understanding that it’s clear our narrator is unreliable and mentally ill, where that isn’t really clear in this version of the film. Finally, we come to May December. You might remember a previous episode where we discussed this film after it was released and neither of us had seen it since. We were pleasantly surprised on the second watch and love Charles Melton’s portrayal of a young victim now in adulthood.

Theater Thursday: Die My Love and Frankenstein Reviews

Thu, 13 Nov 2025 09:00:00 GMT

In this week’s episode of Theater Thursday, we review Die My Love and Frankenstein. If you listened to our previous episodes, you’ll know we saw Frankenstein during our time at the Chicago International Film Festival in October. We were really excited to give this one a second watch and be able to fully review the film! While there seems to be some criticism of this film as a whole, we feel much of it is unfairly based on the fact it’s a Netflix-funded film. One a second viewing, we thought this film looked wonderfully grand and dark. del Toro’s attention to detail and dedication to filmmaking is truly something to behold. Die My Love is another film we were anticipating this year. We didn’t know a lot about this one going in, and thought it was going to be more off-the-rails than it was based on the vibe of the trailer. This film affected us in different ways and really captured the female experience. Robert Pattinson and Jennifer Lawrence have great chemistry which adds to the realness of this film.

Meryl Streep Week (Sophie’s Choice, Death Becomes Her, August: Osage County, Mamma Mia!)

Fri, 07 Nov 2025 09:00:00 GMT

This week on Two Girl Cinema Club, we celebrate the incomparable, Meryl Streep. Watching these films from throughout her career really showcases her range and confirms that she is an actor that only comes around every now and again. Before we dive into our movie reviews, Ailish has some industry news to share, and Hannah gives her thoughts on I Know What You Did Last Summer (2025) and Sorry, Baby.

There are so many films we could have chosen to focus on this week, but we ended up selecting films we mostly haven’t seen before or haven’t recently watched. Sophie’s Choice is the oldest of the bunch and probably Streep’s most notable role. She is such a standout in this film, but we couldn't help but feel like she wasn’t really the main character, as she should have been. Death Becomes Her was a great one to watch coming out of October, and it’s a film that’s had a resurgence in recent years. This one is so campy and fun! August: Osage County received a lot of acclaim when it was released in 2013. While we thought the acting was believable and the story was compelling, it just felt like something was off with this one. Finally, we come to our rewatch of Mamma Mia! It was so enjoyable to watch this one since it had been a while since we’d both seen it, and our fond memories of this film came flooding right back!

What are some of your favorite Meryl Streep films? Let us know and we’ll add them to the list for a part two we’ll record sometime in the future. If you love us, leave us comments on social media and YouTube, or write a review with your 5-star rating. If you write us a nice review, DM us and we’ll send you some of our new stickers!

Theater Thursday: PINPOINT & After Dark Shorts from CIFF + Bugonia Review

Thu, 06 Nov 2025 09:00:00 GMT

This week wraps up our Chicago International Film Festival coverage! We watched all the short films featured in the After Dark category, and discussed our interaction with the people who made PINPOINT come to life. There were six short films in the After Dark category that all focused on different elements of the horror genre. PINPOINT was our favorite and we were able to meet the director, Michael Merlino, and producer, Hannah Ignacio, while we were at the festival. They were wonderful and our only regret is that we weren’t able to watch the film before meeting them! Listen to the full episode to hear our thoughts on the other five short films!

We were also able to see Yorgos Lanthimos’ news film, Bugonia. We had some mixed feelings about this movie, and thought it was really, deeply sad even though comedy was cut throughout. It’s undeniable that Jesse Plemons is giving his all here and completely transforms. Hannah has an interesting perspective that she brings to the table based on some of her lived experience, and Ailish wonders if Yorgos Lanthimos films are for her.

R.L. Stein’s Fear Street (Netflix Parts 1 - 3 & Prom Queen)

Fri, 31 Oct 2025 08:00:00 GMT

We’re wrapping up Spooky Season with some fun, campy films. Before we dig into those, we discuss the upcoming Robert Egger’s film, Werwulf, which is rumored to star Willem Dafoe, Lily-Rose Depp, and Aaron Taylor-Johnson. Hannah also did a double feature of The Wizard of Oz and Wicked, and caught the original Creature from the Black Lagoon.

Maybe it’s a generational thing, but when it comes to R.L. Stein, we were definitely Goosebumps kids and Fear Street wasn’t really on our radar. These films have some fun qualities and they do tell a good story overall. We liked the decades featured in each one, and really enjoyed the story from Part 3: 1666 the best. We could have used a little more of that story and some of the other background stories of the killers haunted by the spirit of Sarah Fier. Parts 1 - 3 do a good job of wrapping up the story at the end, even though it did feel a little slopped together by the time we got to the end of Part 3. Fear Street: Prom Queen is a stand-alone film that still takes place in the same timeline as Parts 1 -3 do. Unfortunately, this film really didn’t work for us from top to bottom. This one should have gone more over-the-top and camp, and it took itself a little too seriously instead.

Did you read the Fear Street series? If so, let us know what you thought of the books and the movie adaptation in the comments! If you love us, leave us comments on social media and YouTube, or write a review with your 5-star rating. If you write us a nice review, DM us and we’ll send you some of our new stickers!

Theater Thursday: Adult Children, Pasa Faho, Whitetail Reviews (Chicago International Film Festival Coverage)

Thu, 30 Oct 2025 08:00:00 GMT

In this Theater Thursday, we’re reviewing a couple more movies we were able to watch from the Chicago International Film Festival. We would have loved to have watched a few more, but our week, unfortunately, didn’t allow for it. Luckily, we were able to watch a few that are up for international consideration for the Oscars in March. Adult Children was filmed and set in Chicago, so it was really fun to see a film with “hometown advantage”. While this wasn’t one that we could really relate to since we don’t have siblings, we still really enjoyed this movie. It hit us harder than you might think and gave us a sense of longing for a large family that neither of us have. Pasa Faho was another one with familial themes. This one was an Australian film about a Nigerian father who has his son come to live with him and some unplanned things happen with his job. To us, this film really felt real and everyone can relate to having to keep going even when life throws you a curveball. Lastly, Hannah watched Whitetail which was a Dutch and Irish film. Whitetail was pretty heavy emotionally and it deals with some complex and dark themes that really make you think. The more Hannah sat with this one, the more she found she enjoyed it.

Stay tuned next week for more festival coverage! If you love us, leave us comments on social media and YouTube, or write a review with your 5-star rating. If you write us a nice review, DM us and we’ll send you some of our new stickers! Don’t forget to follow our socials, and find us on Spotify, YouTube, and Apple Podcasts.

Disney Channel Original Halloween Movies (Under Wraps, Halloweentown, Phantom of the Megaplex, Mom’s Got a Date with a Vampire)

Fri, 24 Oct 2025 08:00:00 GMT

We’re nearing the end of Spooky Season, so we decided to take a trip down memory lane and check out some Disney Channel Original Halloween Movies. Before we discuss those, we touch on our trip to Chicago for the International Film Festival. If you’re curious how the weekend went and what movies we saw, be sure to check out here.

If you were born in the late 80s or 90s, you’ll love the nostalgia of these films. Since we hadn’t seen these in nearly two decades, we really weren’t sure how these would hold up. We started super strong by watching Halloweentown. This one is an undeniable classic and we still love the look and overall vibe of this one. The same goes for Under Wraps. If you’re looking for this one on Disney+, you won’t find it! We had to do a deep search into YouTube before we found a high-quality, full version. It was actually a bit scarier than we remember it being too! Phantom of the Megaplex must be when our love of cinema began. How can you not love this one when it features Mickey Rooney as Movie Mason?! To round it out, we watched Mom’s Got a Date with a Vampire. Out of the four films we watched, this one was probably our least favorites, even though we still loved rewatching all of them.

Theater Thursday: Chicago International Film Fest Recap (Rental Family, Sentimental Value, It Was Just An Accident + more)

Thu, 23 Oct 2025 08:00:00 GMT

We’re fresh from the Chicago International Film Festival where we were able to see nine films in 2 ½ days! This was our first film festival and we were so thankful to be approved as press which allowed us to really make the most of our time. In this episode, we talk generally about all the films we saw and we plan to have some longer episodes reviewing some of the major films once the embargo is up. We give our thoughts on Rental Family, The Secret Agent, Frankenstein, New Group, Sirat, It Was Just An Accident, Dead Man’s Wire, Wake Up Dead Man, and Sentimental Value.

Female Horror Directors (XX, American Mary, Jennifer’s Body, Fresh)

Fri, 17 Oct 2025 08:00:00 GMT

Week three of Spooky Season focuses on Women in Horror! We know there are other horror films directed by women that we would have liked to add to this list (hello The Substance!), but they unfortunately were not on streaming at the time of our watch schedule. This week, we sadly lost one of the greats of our time, Diane Keaton. Her passing came as quite the shock and it seems fitting that we’re celebrating women with these films, even though horror isn’t a genre Keaton is known for. She was unapologetically herself throughout her entire career and she will be deeply missed. Hannah was also able to watch the 2018 Suspiria, Ginger Snaps, Bring Her Back, and E.T., and Ailish watched Basic Instinct.

To be completely honest, these movies weren’t all winners, which was a disappointment coming from female directors. In American Mary, we fall victim to some classic female tropes when it comes to horror that we usually see from male directors. XX on the other hand, was just very poorly executed, even though we felt there was at least one redeeming quality in the anthology. Fresh and Jennifer’s Body were total standouts. We’ve talked about the masterpiece that is Jennifer’s Body in previous episodes, but it felt like we were watching it with different eyes this time around. Megan Fox is amazing in this role and we still feel this film doesn’t get the credit it deserves. Fresh is just a fun film and Sebastian Stan really wins you over with his charisma.

1970s Horror Films (The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Jaws, Alien, Suspiria)

Fri, 10 Oct 2025 08:00:00 GMT

The second week of Spooky Season is here and we’re focusing on 1970s Horror Films! Before we dive into those, we recap our trip to Universal Studios where we visited Halloween Horror Nights, Universal Studios, and Islands of Adventure. If you haven’t been to HHN this year, we give a pretty good review of the houses we were able to go through without an Express Pass. When we go in the future, that’s something we won’t skimp on! We also heard some inside scoop from an employee about HHN, next year’s HHN, and Epic Universe. We also talk about our upcoming trip to the Chicago International Film Festival. If you have any advice for us as first-timers, be sure to leave a comment!

To start our discussion of 1970s Horror Films, we have The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. We’d seen the 2003 version and we tried to remember the differences to the original. You can definitely see how this 1974 film influenced so many that came after it! We loved watching Jaws this week since we just saw the shark at Universal Studios. This movie from 1975 is another classic and we feel the realistic storytelling really holds up today. The same can be said for Alien. Even though this film was released in 1979, it still had a modern look (with exception to some technology and wardrobe). This franchise is iconic and you might remember Hannah talking about watching it in episode 85. Lastly, we watched the 1977 Italian film Suspiria. We both agree that this movie was stunningly beautiful, but the actual plot lost us at times.

Season of the Witches (Practical Magic, The Love Witch, Hocus Pocus, Elvira: Mistress of the Dark)

Fri, 03 Oct 2025 08:00:00 GMT

This week on Two Girl Cinema Club, we start our Spooky Season themes! We have five weeks in October and we’re filling every week with Halloween-themed films. Before we start discussing the films of the week, Hannah introduces something new that we’ll be introducing to the podcast in a month or so. Trailer Tuesdays will be coming soon and we preview it here! Let us know what you think about this being an addition to our weekly episode. A couple episodes ago, we talked about how we would love to see Leonardo DiCaprio and Jennifer Lawrence in another film together and our wish has been granted. Multiple sources have reported that Leo and JLaw will be in a new Martin Scorsese for Apple called What Happens at Night. This sounds like it’s going to be a drama/thriller and we’re excited to hear more! Hannah was also able to watch Bride of Frankenstein which is fitting for the season.

To start October, we decided to channel our inner witches and watched some really fun films. Surprisingly, neither of us had seen Practical Magic even though it’s a cult classic at this point. Yes, this movie has some plot holes, but everyone looks so great and the witch vibes are strong which makes this one a winner in our eyes. The Love Witch was a Tubi find that really surprised us. We had not idea what to expect with this movie and we agreed that it was a hair too long. Hocus Pocus. What can we even say about this movie that hasn’t already been said? This one will always be a seasonal favorite and this is the first of many times we’ll watch it this fall. To round things out, we watched Elvira: Mistress of the Darkness. Of course we knew who Elvira was, but we’d never really heard of this film before finding it on Tubi. It was cheeky, and we feel like Elvira was one of the women that paved the way for the women of today. She was completely, unapologetically herself!

Millennial Comedies (American Pie, Wet Hot American Summer, Superstar, White Chicks)

Fri, 26 Sep 2025 08:00:00 GMT

Congratulations are in order to start this podcast as the news was released that Rihanna and A$AP Rocky welcomed a baby girl. That gives them three under three! We also had a very special announcement to share about the podcast. We’ll be attending the Chicago International Film Festival in October and we’re thrilled to watch some of the year’s most anticipated films! Hannah also shared that she rewatched Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and had mixed thoughts about Johnny Deep, and watched Labyrinth and Pan’s Labyrinth. Can anyone tell us if those two movies are supposed to be related?

To start our week of Millennial Comedies, we have Wet Hot American Summer. This is a random and silly movie that really feels like an extended SNL skit. We’d love to see Bradley Cooper in a comedy role like this again! Superstar is another-centric movie. This one was based off an SNL skit and Mary Katherine Gallagher was iconic 10 years after this movie was released. As fans of Juicy Scoop with Heather McDonald, we’ve heard about the making of White Chicks many times and loved getting to see Heather’s cameo in action. We could really tell that women were involved in the writing of this movie, which we think helps this movie still bring the laughs today. Everyone knows how to make fun of themselves in this film, and we probably laughed the hardest on this watch. Lastly, we watched American Pie. This is another one that really made an impact culturally, but we agree that this style of comedy isn’t our top choice.

Addiction on Film (Requiem for a Dream, Candy, Half Nelson, Four Good Days + The Long Walk Review)

Fri, 19 Sep 2025 08:00:00 GMT

This week on Two Girl Cinema Club, we watch films that focus on addiction. Before we jump into our recaps, we share our thoughts on The Long Walk. We watched this with a decent amount of other viewers in the theater with us, but we didn’t get the reactive crowd we were hoping for. If you’ve seen the movie, you know it takes a lot out of you emotionally, and it really felt like the breath was taken out of the theater. There were so many things that made this movie successful, but it certainly was the toughest watch of the year so far. Ailish watched the first part of aka Charlie Sheen, and Hannah also watched The Crush, Midsommar, and Elio.

We started with Half Nelson which we enjoyed overall, but felt the plot had some points that wouldn’t really make sense today. Ryan Gosling does do a good job here, but there was kind of a lot going on that didn’t really feel imperative to the overall story. We also thought Shareeka Epps and Anthony Mackie were strong in their portrayal of their characters. Speaking of a movie where too much was going on, we have Four Good Days. The only thing we could really agree was positive about this movie was Glenn Close. She really carried this movie along and we had to wonder how the movie would have been different if someone else other than Mila Kunis was cast as her daughter. Candy is an Australian film starring Health Ledger, and we really hadn’t heard of it before. This one really showed how people can be functional addicts, and how seemingly small decisions can potentially derail someone’s life. There was some comedy in this one, but it was mostly a heavy watch. Last but not least, we watched Requiem for a Dream. This is probably the most popular film of the four we watched this week, and it was the most emotional for both of us. While a lot of people focus on Jared Leto here, we thought the story around his mother, played by Ellen Burstyn, really drew us in. Her story was so sad and showed a different perspective on addiction.

Leonardo DiCaprio Week (The Beach, The Man in the Iron Mask, The Departed, Don’t Look Up + Netflix’s Unknown Number)

Fri, 12 Sep 2025 08:00:00 GMT

This week on Two Girl Cinema Club, we focus on all things Leo. Before we dove into the films, we discussed the Netflix documentary that everyone has been talking about: Unknown Number: A High School Catfish. Even though the “reveal” was spoiled for us since we watched it a little later than most, it was still shocking when you see the texts right in front of you. We heard about the article that started it all from The Cut, and we plan on reading that to dig a little deeper since there were some things left out of the doc.

The Man with the Iron Mask started our dive into Leonardo DiCaprio films. This was one we hadn’t heard of, but after watching a little bit, we both felt like we might have seen bits of it before. It feels like a period piece like this is a right of passage for young actors who want to show they’re serious about their work, and while this movie had some great actors working alongside Leo, the overall execution fell a little flat. It was still entertaining and we felt Leo gave a pretty good performance, especially since (spoiler alert) he was playing two people. The Beach was another story. This is another early Leo work and we did feel like his acting skills really were apparent here. The rest of the movie however, felt like a bit of a mess and it was even difficult to follow at times. Going in chronological order, The Departed comes next. What is there to say about this movie? It’s one of Ailish’s favorite movies of all time (in her Letterboxd top four) and it’s a film both of us have seen numerous times over. The cast fires on all cylinders and Leo, again, gives a standout performance. Lastly, we have Don’t Look Up. Neither of us had seen this one since it was released during Covid, and we have to say that the timing of the release definitely negatively impacted its reception. After watching it a second time, we found it to be really funny and we loved the cast chemistry between Leo and Jennifer Lawrence.

90s Rom Coms (She’s All That, 10 Things I Hate About You, Clueless, Pretty Woman + Man’s Best Friend Review)

Fri, 05 Sep 2025 08:00:00 GMT

To wrap up our back-to-school theme, we discuss some 90s rom coms that are based in high school/have a high school element. There will definitely be a part two to this one, so be sure to give us your suggestions! To start out the episode, we have to touch on Sabrina Carpenter’s new album, Man’s Best Friend. This was highly anticipated and we both enjoyed Short n’ Sweet, so we were looking forward to seeing the vibe of this album. Unfortunately, the vibe is pretty much the same, but we still thought the songs were fun. Hannah also watched 2001: A Space Odyssey and Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer, and Ailish watched Arbitrage to get a feel for Richard Gere’s acting skills.

Neither of us really knew if we saw She’s All That or not, but after this watch, we know it’s one we won’t be visiting again. For a movie that should be fun and kinda silly, it feels like a lame parody film of the 90s rom coms that are actually good. The other three films we watched this week are absolute classics and would definitely make it in a rewatch list for the both of us. Clueless might have a couple questionable plot points, but overall, Cher is a character that has true depth and the chemistry of the cast is unmatched. Speaking of cast chemistry, 10 Things I Hate About You is a move where you’d actually think these actors were friends before filming. Yes, there are some exaggerated parts, but this movie really feels like high school and plays to your big, teen feelings. Last, but certainly not least, we have Pretty Woman. No, this one isn’t based on high school kids, but at one point Vivian does talk about how she didn’t graduate high school. Being that this one was from the very early 90s, there are some 80s influences here, but the movie still really holds up and makes us emotional at multiple points.

Teen Angst Films (Varsity Blues, Girl, Interrupted, Thirteen, Donnie Darko)

Fri, 29 Aug 2025 08:00:00 GMT

As we wrap up August, we have another back-to-school themed episode. This week, we focus on the angsty years of being a teenager. We also discuss the biggest news to break in quite some time: Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are engaged! How much of the wedding will we end up seeing? Will they buy a property in Cleveland? Only time will tell. Ailish was finally able to watch Terrifier 2 and we both hope we can see the third installment before we take a trip to Universal later in the fall. Hannah also watched The Audition and Eraserhead which are two more films checked off her horror list.

To begin the Teen Angst theme, we start with the boys. Varsity Blues is a movie that’s huge in pop culture, but neither of us had seen. We couldn’t help but remember Scandoval and how Tom referred to the whipped cream bikini scene when talking about his affair with Rachel/Raquel. Now that we’ve seen this, we think about him referencing this movie a lot differently… Donnie Darko is one we’d both seen before, but it had been a few years. It’s filled with all-star actors and Jake Gyllenhaal gives an absolutely unreal performance at such a young age. We both agree that the more we watch this one, the more we’ll come to understand it. Moving on to the girls, we have Thirteen. Hannah had watched this when she was a teen, but this was Ailish’s first time watching. It’s safe to say that this one hits a lot differently when you’re watching it as an adult! Is it wrong to say we miss this version of Nikki Reed? Lastly, we have Girl, Interrupted. Another fantastic performance from Angelina Jolie, and the other girls do a great job of depicting mental illness in the 60s. No, Winona Ryder isn’t bad in this film, but both of us were on the fence with her in this role in general.

Books We Read in Middle School (Holes, Bridge to Terabithia, Because of Winn Dixie, Tuck Everlasting)

Fri, 22 Aug 2025 08:00:00 GMT

This week on Two Girl Cinema Club, we have another Back to School theme. This time, we’re focusing on some classic books we read in middle school! Ailish didn’t get a chance to watch any extra movies this week, but Hannah was able to watch three that were all set in the 80s. We also discussed the newly released trailer/teaser for the highly-anticipated, Marty Supreme, and give our guesses on its likelihood of playing at an upcoming film festival.

We started our discussion on books we read in middle school that were made into movies with Because of Winn Dixie. While we agreed this is a cute movie and book, we felt this one was a little young feeling compared to the others. This was the start of a great run by AnnaSophia Robb though! After watching Tuck Everlasting through adult eyes, we were blown away almost as much as we were the first time we read the book. This movie definitely still hits hard and stays with you. Yes, there’s a little controversy with the age of Winnie, but we feel the changes the movie made from the book are positive ones. Speaking of controversy, we come to Holes. Shia LaBeouf may be a controversial figure now, but there’s not denying how phenomenal he was here. There are so many complex themes being explored here and it’s honestly hard to find something wrong with this film. To round things out, we have Bridge to Terabithia. Obviously, we cried. It’s hard to believe we were barely in double digits reading this book, and the multiple facets of our pre-teen characters opened our eyes to so much.

Back To School! (Freaky Friday, Princess Diaries, Aquamarine, The Lizzie McGuire Movie + Freakier Friday & Weapons)

Fri, 15 Aug 2025 08:00:00 GMT

Two Girl Cinema Club sits down for a longer episode this week and we have a lot to get through before school starts again! Ailish was able to see Together and Hannah watched The Assessment, so we gave full reviews on those two movies to start things off. We also went to see Weapons which was way more controversial than we expected. If you saw the film, let us know your thoughts! To wrap up our weekend of movies, we hit up the drive-in and watched Freakier Friday for ultimate nostalgia.

Since Freakier Friday was released this past weekend, we figured it was a great time to revisit the original to fit our “Back To School” theme. Freaky Friday still holds up after all these years, and we were blown away by the cast chemistry, timeless jokes, and Jamie Lee Curtis’ knockout performance. We also agreed that The Princess Diaries and Aquamarine held up now that we’re watching them with adult eyes, but we felt The Lizzie McGuire movie left us a little disappointed.

Black Stories (Us, The Deliverance, Malcom & Marie, Beasts of the Southern Wild)

Fri, 08 Aug 2025 08:00:00 GMT

This week on Two Girl Cinema Club, we focus on films telling stories from a Black perspective with predominantly Black casts. This is another theme that we plan on revisiting in a later episode in the hopes some others come available on our streaming services! In watching these films, we were also struck by how important and impactful representation in the industry is, and feel even more excited for the work that Ryan Coogler is doing on the heels of Sinners. Unfortunately, some of these movies didn’t fully land for us even though the concept was there. The Deliverance went viral on TikTok for Glenn Close’s role in the movie, but that wasn’t necessarily positive press for this Netflix production. Staying with the horror genre, we also watched Us. Hannah had seen this many times, but it was the first time Ailish had watched. This concept gives you a lot to think about, and we both think this is a win for Jordan Peele. Beasts of the Southern Wild left us a bit divided. While we both thought Quvenzhané Wallis was unbelievable and the visuals were striking, we wondered what the reception of this movie would be today. Lastly, we watched Sam Levinson’s, Malcom & Marie. Overall, this one felt like the same scene over and over, even though the acting and composition of the filming was visually appealing.

Since Ailish was on vacation last week, she didn’t get to watch other movies, but luckily, Hannah did! She went to see Together and it wasn’t exactly what she expected based on previews. Ailish hopes to see this as well, so we’ll talk more about this on a future episode. She also watched Terrifier 2 and talked about some previews she saw when seeing Together.

There are also so many movies that are coming out later this year that we’re really excited about, so we talk about those as well. Since we’re horror fans, we have some movies releasing soon that we’re making plans to go to the theatre for and we hope to head to the drive-in to see Freakier Friday!

Eddington Review + Pandemic Films (Train to Busan, Cargo, Cabin Fever)

Fri, 25 Jul 2025 14:56:16 GMT

Two Girl Cinema Club went to see Eddington opening weekend and we have a lot of thoughts! If you’ve seen the movie, you can probably relate to us in that it took us some time to completely process everything in the film and how we felt about everything. If you watched Eddington, be sure to let us know what you thought! Hannah also watched Manchester by the Sea, Opus, and Dunkrik, and Ailish started Season 4 of The Bear.

With Eddington getting released, we felt it was the perfect time to explore some other pandemic-style films. Train to Busan was one we had both heard good things about, but neither of us had seen. The fact that the majority of the film is confined to train cars made this one different from other movies of the same genre, and we noted that the infection to zombie transition time is quite fast, unless you’re a character at a pivotal part of the plot. Cargo was one that we hadn’t heard much about and it was a Netflix film. It had some interesting plot points that could have been explored more (indigenous Australian culture) and some that could’ve been toned down (doomsday prepper, Vic), but we did feel invested in our main characters. Eli Roth’s Cabin Fever was a movie Hannah had seen, but Ailish had not. This movie is more campy and fun, but it does have some serious moments throughout which kind of made the point of the movie confusing. This is one that doesn’t hold us quite like the others even though the way the infection is spread did seem realistic.

War Films (Black Hawk Down, 1917, All Quiet on the Western Front + Bieber’s Album SWAG)

Fri, 18 Jul 2025 08:00:00 GMT

This week on Two Girl Cinema Club we watched some epic films about war. We started the episode by giving our honest opinions on Justin Bieber’s new album, SWAG. So…does that mean everything he’s been up to recently has been a well-thought plan? He did tell us he’s standing on business and it seems he meant it. The Emmy nominations were also announced and there were some big wins (Apple), surprising snubs (Handmaid’s Tale & Only Murderers), and a sore loser (Anna Camp). Ailish was able to watch Revenge, so we were able to have a full conversation about the movie as a whole, and Hannah watched Spree and Killer Klowns from Outer Space for Summerween.

Black Hawk Down is a hugely popular movie that Hannah had seen, but Ailish had not. This one is definitely a heavy watch and we both felt like we were boots on the ground because of how realistic it felt. 1917 and All Quiet on the Western Front were great movies to watch as a pair because they focus on different sides of the same war. Both of these are considered anti-war films and focus on WWI. While All Quiet garnered some criticism because it wasn’t 100% true the book, we found it to be highly impactful and we’re on the waitlist for the audiobook.

Oscar-Nominated Animated Films (The Wild Robot, I Lost My Body, The Mitchell’s vs The Machines, Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio)

Fri, 11 Jul 2025 08:00:00 GMT

This week, Two Girl Cinema Club focuses on animated films, but before we dig into that, we talk about a variety of other movies we caught up with. Ailish was finally able to watch the Black Phone ahead of the sequel coming this fall, and The Woman in the Yard which didn’t land for Blum House. Hannah watched The Shark Whisperer and Flow, and listened to The Dirt after we watched the movie a few weeks ago. Speaking of Pam Anderson, we also discussed The Last Showgirl and what Oscar nominations mean, and the upcoming epic, The Odyssey.

Our theme this week was Oscar-Nominated Animated Films and we started with The Wild Robot. Since Hannah watched Flow, it was interesting to compare the movie that won the Oscar vs this one. Out of all the movies this week, we didn’t gel with The Mitchell’s vs The Machines. There were definitely some funny moments, but overall, we felt this one didn’t give kids enough credit, especially when you compare it to the other nominated films. Pinocchio surprised us the most. This was another unbelievable stop-motion film and we were completely in awe of how it was executed. Last on the list was I Lost My Body. While this one was animated, it wasn’t geared toward children, and it explored some heavy themes.

Wes Anderson Part 2 (Isle of Dogs & The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar and Three More)

Fri, 04 Jul 2025 08:00:00 GMT

This week on Two Girl Cinema Club it’s part 2 of Wes Anderson movies. Before we dig into the films, Ailish teases 28 Years Later, Hannah recaps the latest news from The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, and we both discuss the insane documentary, Abducted in Plain Sight. Should we do a documentary week and if so, what are some of your favorites that we should check out?

Getting into Wes Anderson, we watched some of his unexpected films this week starting with the Isle of Dogs. The stop motion animation was just amazing here and we both liked this movie a lot more than we thought we would. Even though it was animation and not live action, it still really felt like we were in Wes Anderson’s world. We also watched his collection of short films inspired by the works of Roald Dahl: The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar, The Swan, The Rat Catcher, and Poison. These were lesser-known to us, and we felt Anderson really maintained the integrity of Dahl’s writing. As a bonus, Hannah also watched The Fantastic Mr. Fox!

Wes Anderson Part 1 (Rushmore, The Royal Tenenbaums, Life Aquatic, & The Darjeeling Limited)

Fri, 27 Jun 2025 08:00:00 GMT

This week on Two Girl Cinema Club we dive into some Wes Anderson films. Before we get to that, we discuss the breaking news of Anna Wintor stepping down as the head of Vogue and Brooke Schofield getting engaged. Hannah also watched The Iron Claw and Ailish finished the final season of You.

In honor of the Phoenician Scheme, we watched some Wes Anderson films we haven’t seen. In a previous episode, we’ll admit that we were a little skeptical of the Wes obsession, but after watching these movies, we ate our words. We started with Rushmore which was one of his first films. This one had a different vibe from some of his later works, but we liked the fantastical elements of this one. Surprisingly enough, neither of us had seen The Royal Tenenbaums before even though this is probably one of Anderson’s most famous works. Gene Hackman really stands out here and we can’t help but get a little emotional knowing what’s happened in the last few months. Life Aquatic and The Darjeeling Limited rounded out the movies we’re exploring this week. While we felt the former was a little slow, we loved the visuals in both of these and they really helped pull the whole inside the films together.

Apocalyptic Futures (Melancholia, Crimes of the Future, Threads)

Fri, 20 Jun 2025 08:00:00 GMT

While the second half of this episode is a little dark, the first half brings Disney talk, the 28 franchise, and Hannah’s Friday the 13th party. Hannah watched the live-action Snow White this week and…had some thoughts. This opened up a larger conversation about Disney’s compulsion to bring all their classic, animated films into the real world which hasn’t been successful overall. Maybe it’s just our nostalgia, but some things don’t need to be remade! We’re still on the fence about seeing 28 Years Later in theatres, but we both watched 28 Weeks Later and it got us excited about the third installment. Danny Boyle is back for this one, so there’s a good chance this one will have the same vibe as the first. We had a Friday the 13th this month and Hannah celebrated by introducing her sons to some classics. Does everyone remember Goosebumps and how scary some of those episodes were??

Sorry to bring everyone down with our talk of the end of the world this week! These movies ended up hitting a little closer to home than we initially expected which added another layer of terror. To start, we watched Threads: a 1984 movie about the aftermath of a nuclear attack in Sheffield, England. While we would never watch this movie again, we have to say, it was very well done and felt more like a documentary the majority of the time. Aside from the horror of this film, our main complaint was that it was a hair too long. Next, was Crimes of the Future from David Cronenberg. We were pleasantly surprised by this one and enjoyed Kristen Stewart’s role even though it was minor. Our favorite movie of the bunch was Melancholia. We’d heard about this one over the years, but had never seen it. Kirsten Dunst is really amazing here and we thought Lars von Trier made a beautiful film that depicted anxiety and depression really well.

Unexpected Rom Com Leads (Moonstruck, Friends with Money, Life or Something Like It, Enough Said + Sabrina Carpenter News)

Fri, 13 Jun 2025 15:11:20 GMT

This episode of the podcast starts with some breaking Sabrina Carpenter news. We’re on the heels of her newest single, Manchild, and she just announced that her next album, Man’s Best Friend will be released at the end of August. Her cover art for the album is getting a lot of press, so we give our thoughts on that, her Rolling Stone cover, and what we hope from her as an artist going forward. We also talk about Miley Cyrus’s appearance on Monica Lewinsky’s podcast, Reclaiming, and Hannah gives bonus takes on The Money Pit and I Know What You Did Last Summer.

Our movie theme this week was “unexpected rom com leads” and it was fun to see a side of these actors that we don’t often see on screen. We started with Friends with Money which is really a stereotypical, female-led movie from the early 2000s. Our unexpected lead is Frances McDormand, and it also features Jennifer Aniston fresh off Friends. This movie had depth, but we weren’t fully able to connect with it, even though we loved Frances's role. Next up: James Gandolfini in Enough Said. This movie was released a few short months after his untimely death and it shows a completely different side to him since he’s most widely known as Tony Soprano. He and Julia Louis-Dreyfus have such great chemistry here and both of us loved this movie more than we expected to. Life or Something Like It has Angelina Jolie and Edward Burns as its lead characters. While we love looking at Angie in this role, the movie was doing too much and she’s just not believable in this type of movie. To round things out, we watched Nicolas Cage in Moonstruck. This movie took us for a ride, to say the least, and Cage was every bit of the Nick Cage we know today.

Dramedies (Crazy Stupid Love, Little Miss Sunshine, & The Breakfast Club + Wallows Concert)

Fri, 06 Jun 2025 08:00:00 GMT

The rebrand is here! We’re finally ready to share that we have transitioned to the “second season” of our podcast and decided it was time for us to evolve. Now, we’re Two Girl Cinema Club! We hope you love the rebrand as much as us. In other news, we’re flying high off our Wallows concert last week and give all the details from the euphoric experience. Miley Cyrus also dropped her album, Something Beautiful, so we discuss that to round out the news segment of this episode.

This week, we focused on a few dramedies and had to switch gears a little because some of our original picks left streaming services. To start things off, we watched Crazy Stupid Love which neither of us had seen in quite some time. This movie held up, even though there were a couple things that frustrated us now that we’re watching with adult eyes. We both thought Little Miss Sunshine was a standout this week! Both of us had only seen this one once and we felt this movie is yet another testament to amazing casting and cas chemistry. These two movies also really show the range of Steve Carrell. To round things out, we went back a little further in time and watched The Breakfast Club. Another fantastic cast and certainly a movie that was ahead of its time, even though there’s some language that doesn’t translate the best today.

Women Descending into Madness (Horse Girl, Immaculate, Black Swan, & One of Them Days)

Fri, 30 May 2025 08:00:00 GMT

This week on the pod, we break the news that Hailey Bieber sold rhode to e.l.f. for $1 billion when it’s only been in existence for three short years. This comes off the news that rhode products will be sold in Sephora which we were thrilled about, but now we have some concerns about the quality declining. We also discuss our Memorial Day weekends which were pretty uneventful. Kind of a slow news week!

To start our film discussion about women descending into madness, we review the late Jeff Baena film, Horse Girl. Unfortunately, this movie didn’t really land for us and we felt there was too much going on, but not a whole lot actually happening. Immaculate was definitely a better watch and we were pleasantly surprised by Sydney Sweeney really going for it with her performance. Sometimes, it’s felt like she’s typecast, but this role really showed her range as an actor. We’ve both seen Black Swan multiple times, but we both looked at it through a different lens this time. Natalie Portman does such a great job in this film and it’s absolutely one that holds up even after 15 years. Lastly, we watched One of Them Days which was a fun, buddy comedy with Keke Palmer and SZA. We both agreed that this was a fun watch and it’s one that we would watch again for a laugh. What do you think of these films and what are some of your favorite “women’s descent into madness” films? Let us know in the comments!

80s/90s Crime Thrillers (Heat, Wall Street, & more + Final Destination Bloodlines)

Fri, 23 May 2025 08:00:00 GMT

We kick off this episode by reviewing the hottest movie of the past weekend: Final Destination Bloodlines. Ailish was a Final Destination virgin, but Hannah is a huge fan of the franchise and has been waiting for this reboot to come out. We give our thoughts and also go over some of the most memorable moments from the franchise over the years. We can’t be the only ones that never get in tanning beds because of these movies right? Since Cannes has been a big topic recently, we also discuss some of the highly anticipated movies and some that might fall a little flat. Listen to the full episode to hear all our thoughts!

Digging into the 80s/90s crime thrillers this week was certainly more of a commitment than we initially expected. Some of these movies were on the long side, but we both felt that all of them held up and did a good job of storytelling. Most of these films were new watches for both of us, and it was fun to see some of these iconic actors in a different light. We’re so used to seeing Robert De Niro in movies like Meet the Parents and Danny DeVito in Always Sunny In Philadelphia, that we forget they were serious actors 20-30 years ago. The movies we chose this week also had common threads in them with casting which was completely unintentional, but worked out really well. What are some of your favorite movies from these actors and what do you think of these iconic films in general? Be sure to let us know!

Dream Date with Two Michael B. Jordans (Sinners & Book Club + Talk To Me, Mid90s, Anatomy of a Fall, & Wolf of Wall Street)

Fri, 16 May 2025 08:00:00 GMT

We have a jam-packed episode this week! We finally went to see Sinners right before it leaves theatres near us, and we think it lived up to the hype. We’re just at the tip of the iceberg that is Ryan Coogler and Michael B. Jordan’s career and we can’t wait to see what more is to come from both of them. We also get to discuss An American Story by Wilmer Valderrama which wasn’t what we expected at all. Since he leaves out pretty huge parts of his personal life, it’s hard to get past the idea that this wasn’t just his ploy to get some decades-long stink off himself.

Digging into our movies of the week, we start out strong with Mid90s from Jonah Hill. While we felt this movie was very niche, it did capture a period of time and the child acting was worth talking about. Talk To Me surprised both of us even though it felt a little cliche or cheesy at times. This horror movie actually had a good storyline overall, and we can easily imagine the options for the sequel. Ailish had previously seen Anatomy of a Fall, but this was Hannah’s first watch. It’s easy to see why this movie was nominated for awards and was the Palme d’Or winner at Cannes. Plus, who can get over the dog acting?! We wrap things up with Wolf of Wall Street which is a film we both have seen more than once. Even though this movie is filled with toxic masculinity, substance abuse, and crime, it’s still completely entertaining and had us laughing out loud even on our third (or so) rewatch.

Music Biopic Week (A Complete Unknown, I’m Not There, Notorious, & The Dirt)

Fri, 09 May 2025 08:00:00 GMT

We had to make some last minute changes to our list since some movies are no longer on streaming, but we’re excited to have our first music biopic episode! We were excited to finally watch A Complete Unknown and decided to add I’m Not There to the mix even though they’re very different films based on the same person. There’s no denying the former is a detailed interpretation of Bob Dylan’s life, while the latter definitely went in a more artistic direction. If we’re ranking these four, we both agree that Notorious and The Dirt are at the end of the list. Both films have interesting stories to tell about iconic musicians, but we felt they missed the mark for different reasons. What other music biopics would you like to see? Our plan is to add some based on women for a future episode!

Yes, we planned to have our Book Club this week, but there was just too much to pack into one episode with all the movies, the Met Gala, and the news that the Golden Globes are adding a podcasting category. If you haven’t already read Wilmer Valderama’s book, An American Story, be sure to grab it before next Friday!. We’d love to have you join the conversation!

Complicated Female Leads (Erin Brockovich, Carol, Notes on a Scandal, & Coyote Ugly)

Fri, 02 May 2025 11:30:53 GMT

We’re back this week after having to take an unexpected break last week! The theme of films we discuss revolve around some complicated female stories with some being more intriguing than others. We actually hadn’t ever seen most of these movies which is a surprise since they’re all very well known! It was easy to draw a comparison to Carol and Notes on a Scandal which both feature the captivating Cate Blanchet. These movies both served their purpose and gave a thought provoking take on different kinds of relationships, but we both felt Notes was the stronger film. Unfortunately, Ailish was unable to watch Erin Brockovich, so Hannah gave her take which wasn’t what you might expect. We also discussed Coyote Ugly which is somewhat of a cult classic these days although the film overall leaves much to be desired.

In pop culture news, we touch on the drama happening with Bill Belichick and his girlfriend, Jordan Hudson, the release date for the new Yorgo Lanthimos movie with Emma Stone, and the casting announcements for the new Hunger Games movie. Next week will be our Book Club episode and we’re discussing Wilmer Valderama’s book An American Story. Be sure to join in the commentary!

Historical Traumas & Other Heavy Themes (Last of the Mohicans, 12 Years a Slave, & The Prestige)

Fri, 18 Apr 2025 08:00:00 GMT

The week on the pod, we watch some movies with heavy themes and some are difficult to watch in moments. Since we had both already seen The Prestige, we were looking forward to the rewatch to see if the film still holds up. While we couldn’t necessarily say anything negative about the acting or the look of the film, we didn’t think it hit as hard since we already knew the surprise twist at the end. Moving onto 12 Years a Slave made for the most difficult watch of the week. After watching, we certainly see why this movie was so acclaimed and love how the racial and historical themes are so important even if they’re difficult to see on screen. Lastly, we checked out Last of the Mohicans which is a classic that neither of us had seen. We really had to keep the time period this film was set in and the year it was filmed in mind when reflecting on this one! Both of these movies made us reflect on the history lessons we were taught in school and how much we were missing.

In other news, we discussed some new trailers that dropped for The Roses, Eddington, and One Battle After Another. Hannah also talked about some recent podcast episodes she caught up on this week and her rewatch of Ghost World.

Cult Classics & Brad Pitt (Babylon, Fight Club, Pulp Fiction, & Oddity)

Fri, 11 Apr 2025 08:00:00 GMT

In this week’s episode, we watch a couple cult classics with some new films thrown in. We didn’t initially plan on watching Oddity, but when we saw it was on Hulu, we had to add it to our watchlist. Unfortunately, this one didn’t meet our expectations and we were left disappointed by a movie based on Irish lore yet again. On the plus side, we enjoyed revisiting Pulp Fiction and Fight Club. Yes, there were a few things in these movies that probably wouldn’t fly today, but we feel both of these stand the test of time. After watching a young Brad Pitt in Fight Club, we jumped forward a few decades to see him in Babylon. This movie clocked in at over 3 hours which was quite the time commitment. Neither of us saw this before and thought it was a fun watch even though you felt the length.

Hannah also gives her take after seeing the biggest movie of the year thus far: A Minecraft Movie. This shockingly racked in $310 million worldwide last week and really seemed to bring back that “must see” movie comradery. We also touch on some insider news fro CinemaCon and recent movie rumors.

Space Travel & Matthew McConaughey (Interstellar, Apollo 13, & Dallas Buyers Club)

Fri, 04 Apr 2025 08:00:00 GMT

We unintentionally created a little theme with our movies this week, but it ended up making sense in our heads. We started out taking a step back in time and watching Apollo 13 for the first time. While we felt the movie tugged on our heartstrings, we both felt it was difficult to separate Tom Hanks’ very identifiable voice from some of the other iconic characters he’s played, specifically Woody. Interstellar rightfully received tons of praise and accolades, but if we had to compare these two space movies, we’d have to say that Apollo 13 felt more real to us. Both of these movies were huge hits in the box office, had all-star casts, and were directed by some seasoned directors. To round this one out, we watched Dallas Buyers Club which is another film that received lots of awards and attention. Having not watched this movie since it came out in 2013, we felt this one really still held up. The only thing that probably would have changed if it were made today would be the casting of Jared Leto (in our opinion!) Listen to the full ep to hear how we ranked these movies!

We also discussed some news like Ailish’s quick trip to NYC, Hannah newly acquiring Max, and the controversial Beatles cast announcement. As we mentioned before, we hope to make some official changes soon. Hopefully, you’ll see these surprises before summer arrives!

Book Club: Over the Influence by JoJo (+Trap, Selena & Benny, & Courtney Stodden)

Fri, 28 Mar 2025 08:00:00 GMT

Our Match Book Club episode is finally here! This month, we read Over the Influence by JoJo and it turned out to not be one of our favorites. She definitely told a lot more of her personal life as opposed to details on her career and the music industry which we weren’t expecting. We didn’t particularly enjoy this book and felt like if she wrote it 20+ years from now, she would’ve cut out many of the redundant stories and details.

As promised, we also watched M. Night Shyamalan’s newest movie, Trap. In a way, we felt trapped watching this one and it seemed way longer than 1 hour 45 minutes. We also caught up on some pop culture news including some details on The Odyssey, a recent Courtney Stodden special, and Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco’s new album.

Finally Watching Anora (+The Electric State & M. Night Shyamalan Talk)

Fri, 21 Mar 2025 08:00:00 GMT

This week on the pod, we finally get to give our thoughts after watching the Best Picture of the year: Anora. Since we didn’t read a lot about the movie ahead of time, we were surprised by the direction the film went, but we loved it overall. If you haven’t seen it yet, definitely check it out now that it’s available on streaming. We couldn’t let the release of Netflix’s biggest film go by without watching and reviewing, so we’re breaking down The Electric State. Once again, we’re skeptical of the streaming numbers and some of the reviews, but thought it made for a great kid’s movie even though that clearly wasn’t the intention. There were so many things off with this movie from the chemistry to the acting in general…

Since Trap just dropped on Netflix, we’re planning to watch that for next week and we tentatively plan a little M. Night Shyamalan binge. Next week will be our Book Club episode, so if you haven’t finished Over the Influence by JoJo, hurry up so you can join the conversation! If you love us, leave us comments on social media and YouTube, or write a review with your 5-star rating. If you write us a nice review, DM us and we’ll send you some of our new stickers!

From Mickey 17 to The Menu (Movie Talk & Meghan Markle)

Fri, 14 Mar 2025 08:00:00 GMT

This week on the podcast, Hannah and Ailish tease a podcast announcement. Stay tuned for something exciting coming soon! Ailish went on a little Bong Joon Ho binge and watched Mickey 17, Okja, and Snowpiercer. We didn’t give away any Mickey 17 spoilers, but it’s definitely refreshing to see movies like this that are a little quirky and fun getting made and shown in theatres. Hannah watched The Menu, Lars and the Real Girl, and Smile 2, and liked them all overall. We loved reminiscing on Lars and the Real Girl and other films with similar vibes from that time like Dan in Real Life and Little Miss Sunshine.

In pop culture news, we talk about the new developments with Meghan Markle’s cooking show and some of the points Heather McDonald brought up on Tuesday's episode of Juicy Scoop. Book Club is back! Next month, we’ll be reading Jojo’s book, Over the Influence. Get on the waitlist so you can finish it by the end of March!

The Highs & Lows of the 2025 Oscars (+Ruby Franke Doc)

Fri, 07 Mar 2025 09:00:00 GMT

The results are in and Hannah is the big winner after predicting 6/9 Oscar winner correctly! Unfortunately, a few of our picks didn’t come true (Demi Moore 🙁), but overall we enjoyed the show even though it ran way too long. We also discuss the hot water Hannah Berner got herself into after hosting the Vanity Fair afterparty red carpet and how influencers shouldn’t be cosplaying as real journalists. And with that, the awards season is over for another year! What movies do you think will make an impact in 2025?

The documentary about former family vlogger, Ruby Franke dropped this week, and we were both able to watch. While it was extremely painful to hear from the older children, the documentary is definitely worth watching as it makes you think about how ethical these YouTube channels are. Ailish also watched Nosferatu, Hannah started the Gabby Petito documentary again, and we discussed Armie Hammer’s interesting podcast topics.

Our Oscar Predictions (+Justin Bieber, Michelle Trachtenberg, & Pop Culture Recap)

Fri, 28 Feb 2025 09:00:00 GMT

Our technology troubles continue, so unfortunately, you won’t be able to see us again this week. We were met with some sad news earlier this week when we learned of Michelle Trachtenberg’s passing. She may not have been doing too much acting lately, but we’ll always remember her as Georgina from Gossip Girl and Casey from Ice Princess. There’s also been a lot of speculation around Justin Bieber’s overall state recently. People of course want to blame this on Selena’s engagement, but we’re going to guess he’s dealing with heavier things in his personal life. If he and Hailey are supporting each other, who are we to judge! With the Oscars being held this Sunday, Hannah and Ailish give their official Oscar predictions and discuss the tight race in some categories. Will Timmy beat our Adrien after his SAG win? Make your own predictions and watch for our scorecards next week on our socials.

In light of the litany of embarrassment Meghan Markle has been experiencing lately surrounding her brands, we break down mistakes she and her team have made along the way. The most recent comparisons to Pamela Anderson’s cooking show are hard to ignore. Where are her interns doing brand research? Hannah also listened to Lisa Marie Presley and Riley Keough’s book From Here to the Great Unknown and gave her thoughts on the book, being famous your whole life, and Riley Keough’s career.

The Nostalgia of SNL50 (+Oscars/Movie Talk)

Fri, 21 Feb 2025 09:00:00 GMT

Well, we forgot to celebrate our 100th episode again, so next week for sure will be the celebration! Instead of celebrating ourselves, we celebrated 50 years of Saturday Night Live by watching the 3 hour SNL50 special. Overall, we both enjoyed the show and there were definitely moments where we laughed out loud which we didn’t really anticipate. Neither of us are avid SNL watchers these days, but we used to be and really appreciated the nostalgia of the show.

The Oscars are nearly here, so we talked a little bit about Anora being ahead of the pack of the big awards. We hate continuously bringing up the Blake Lively/Justin Baldoni drama, but we couldn’t help but compare the way Mikey Madison talked about her take on her character and Blake Lively’s notes on It Ends With Us. Is it so odd that actors take creative liberties with their roles or does it just depend on the director? Hannah also recaps some movie-versions of books she’s read and gives her take on how the two were different. If you’re watching on YouTube, we’re trying out a new camera angle, but that means you see more of the little white dog pacing.

Jo-Bro Déjà Vu (+ Super Bowl & Pop Culture Talk)

Fri, 14 Feb 2025 09:00:00 GMT

This is our 100th episode but we kind of forgot, so we’re celebrating this milestone next week instead. Oops! This turned out to be kind of a busy week for both of us which meant that we weren’t as well versed on pop culture news and didn’t get to consume much content since the last episode. Ailish was able to watch the new series Apple Cider Vinegar on Netflix which is based on a true story and Hannah read a couple books that were a little out of her norm.

Since the Super Bowl happened last Sunday, we quickly give our thoughts on the commercials, halftime show, and the game itself. Hannah also shares a podcast which gives a different perspective to the Black/Justin feud that made her feel heard, and we talk about the Jonas Brothers supposed announcements that should be dropping soon. We’re not totally sure if we already had the conversation about what the Jo-Bros have been up to lately on the pod already, so if we have, we apologize in advance!

Breaking Down Babygirl (+Movie & Grammy Talk)

Fri, 07 Feb 2025 09:00:00 GMT

Because of impending inclement weather, we’re virtual this week! The Grammys last weekend gave us quite a lot to discuss, but overall, we thought it was a good show. All the performers sounded amazing and most of the winners made sense although we felt the Grammys were trying a little too hard to seem progressive and “changed”. We also shared our thoughts after watching Maria, Saturday Night, Your Honor, and I Used to be Funny. Last weekend, we had a sleepover and finally watched Nicole Kidman in Babygirl. We love that she’s really been breaking out of her typical movie style recently, but we don’t think this movie lived up to all the hype it got online.

Sticking with the movie talk, we gave our thoughts on the new movie Companion and how movies involving an AI main character all seem to have the same general plot. Can we mix it up a little from the hot AI robot who does anything the man says until it becomes self-aware and gains more intelligence? With it being February, we also make some Galentine’s Day plans. If you’re doing something with your girlfriends this week, be sure to share!

Unpacking Our Childhood Movie Traumas (+MGK/Megan Fox News & Movie Talk)

Fri, 31 Jan 2025 09:00:00 GMT

This week on the pod, Hannah and Ailish unpack their childhood fears that stemmed from movies and how the censorship was pretty much nonexistent. Ailish also talks a little bit about her recent journey with the Dune franchise, and Hannah adds another Oscar movie to her belt with the new Wallace & Gromit. Hannah also watched Beau is Afraid which was an extremely wild ride with Joaquin Phoenix.

In pop culture news, we give our thoughts on the recent Instagram post from MGK that alludes to his relationship (or lack thereof) with Megan Fox, and the recent breakup of Bachelor alums Matt James and Rachael Kirkconnell.

Oscar Noms, Snubs, & Flops (+ Pop Culture Recap)

Fri, 24 Jan 2025 09:00:00 GMT

The Oscar noms are here and Hannah and Ailish give their thoughts on the nominations. We have some strong opinions about some of the noms and subs, and have to wonder if the Academy is showing their bias more this year than usual. Sure The Substance got some noms which feels like a win, but there were some others that definitely felt like they were encouraged to help certain streaming services. Be sure to share your thoughts with us! We also both recently watched A Real Pain, so we give our takes on that movie, and Hannah shares her thoughts on the 1922 Nosferatu vs the 2024 version. Of course, we have to touchbase on the Blake/Justin drama which continuously seems to play out over social media rather than in court where we believe it belongs.

Since we had so much to discuss this week, we didn’t even get to talk about Bravo. Next week, we’ll talk about RHOBH and maybe discuss some of the drama happening on RHOSLC and RHONY. Be sure to let us know if you prefer these types of conversations or if you would prefer more general pop culture and movie talk!

The State of Entertainment Today (Justin Bieber, Kylie & Timmy, + Movie Talk)

Fri, 17 Jan 2025 12:27:00 GMT

This week, Hannah and Ailish talk about the difference between theatre movies vs at-home movies after Hannah watched Cuckoo. Will theatre releases make a comeback this year like people looked forward to in 2024? We also discuss the newest Kylie and Timmy spotting, Justin Bieber’s Instagram and his tease of new music, and Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt getting huge support all over social media.

We haven’t gotten back into fully recapping RHOBH yet because…we’re just not feeling the vibe! Do you miss the recaps and would you like us to bring them back? We do discuss Erika’s interior designer that she brought in to redo her house and both agree that we dislike when people don’t have a home that evokes their own style. We also touch on the newest development in the Kyle/Dorit feud and completely agree with Dorit that Kyle was in the wrong for continuing to text with PK, even if they are just sending memes.

Thrive in 2025? (Golden Globes + Pop Culture Recaps)

Fri, 10 Jan 2025 09:00:00 GMT

Hannah and Ailish are back with the first episode of the New Year. We had a nice break for the holidays and are excited to get back into our podcasting routine. The Golden Globes happened last week and we share our thoughts on the nominees and Nikki Glaser as the host. We both still have quite a few movies to see before the Oscars, so we’re hoping more come to streaming soon! We also discuss the newest drama between Justin Baldoni and Blake Lively. There’s just so much to unpack with this and it really makes us think about other instances where crisis PR teams may have had a hand in some recent celeb drama.

We still need to fully catch up on RHOBH, but we talk generally about our thoughts of this season so far. We’re loving Dorit’s new attitude and not fans of Sutton’s pretentiousness. We also talk a little bit about Good Time Girl by Heather Gay and Can I Say by Travis Barker which Ailish and Hannah read, respectively.

Last Episode of 2024! (Pop Culture Recap + Movie Reviews)

Fri, 20 Dec 2024 09:00:36 GMT

On this week’s episode of Emotional Support Water Bottle, we’re wrapping up 2024 and preparing to take a break until 2025. There’s been a lot more Brianna Chickenfry drama recently involving Grace O’Malley which we recap. As we predicted, it was announced less than 24 hours after we recorded that Grace is getting her own podcast on no other network than Unwell. Ailish watched Speak No Evil over the last week and gives her review, and Hannah shares her thoughts on the newest season of The Ultimatum. We also make plans to watch the Paris and Nicole special together after the New Year, so stay tuned for that!

When we return after the New Year, we’ll get back into our recaps of RHOBH. Until then, you can check out some of our older episodes that you want to revisit or maybe you haven’t listened to yet! We hope everyone has a wonderful holiday!

Not So Golden Globes? (Megan Fox & Sabrina Carpenter Breakup News)

Fri, 13 Dec 2024 09:00:43 GMT

This week in ESWB Pod, Hannah and Ailish dig into the recent alleged celeb breakups. While we were never really sure of the state of Megan Fox and MGK, we were saddened to see they apparently called it quits so soon after the pregnancy announcement. Barry Keoghan and Sabrina Carpenter have also allegedly ended things on the heels of her Christmas special being released on Netflix. With so many blind items and celeb rumors floating around, we don’t know what to believe anymore! We both were able to watch Megan Fox’s new movie, Subservience, which pleasantly surprised us. TBH, we weren’t expecting much, but it was an enjoyable watch and Megan played her role very well. Since Golden Globe nominations were announced this week, we also give our take on some of the noms.

As we previously mentioned, we’ll be banking some RHOBH episodes to do multiple recaps in an episode. When we recorded this week, there wasn’t much Bravo news to speak of, but some things have developed since then, so we’ll have plenty of news to discuss next week!

The Pros and Cons of Reality TV (RHOSLC & RHOBH Recaps)

Fri, 06 Dec 2024 09:00:33 GMT

Welcome to this festive, winter addition of Emotional Support Water Bottle! Hannah and Ailish both have their decorations up and it’s blustery and snowy outside. Even though we felt like we didn’t consume much in terms of media this week, we still found things to talk about for almost two hours. We touch on the weekend release of Moana 2 and how it shattered the Wicked numbers, Hannah shocks Ailish by admitting she had never watched Love Actually, and we talk about our upcoming trip to see Suki Waterhouse in concert.

In Bravo news, we discuss the shocking and raw conversation between Mary Cosby and Robert Jr. on RHOSLC and debate whether moments like this on reality tv are needed or exploitative. This brings us into a conversation about times people have clearly been exploited on reality tv and how it’s always murky waters when substance abuse is involved. Since we haven’t really recapped RHOBH yet, we mashed the first three episodes into one recap this week. While we both are Kyle fans, we can’t help but to lean more on Dorit’s side on this one…

Sat, 30 Nov 2024 00:47:01 GMT

Happy Thanksgiving to the ESWB listeners! This week, we have some Bravo Breaking News: Vanderpump Rules as we know it will be no more and Schwartz & Sandy’s is closing up shop. Neither of these are a huge surprise, but it is the end of an era and the way this iconic show has come to an end was less than satisfying. Hannah also gives her thoughts on Wicked and tries to explain the correlation between Wicked and The Wizard of Oz to Ailish. If you haven’t watched Wicked yet, you might want to skip ahead! We wrap up the hot topics by giving our thoughts on Part 3 of the RHOC reunion. While we liked the season as a whole, this final episode left a bad taste in our mouths.

For Book Club this month, we read Men Have Called Her Crazy by Anna Marie Tendler. If you read along with us, we’re sorry and hope you made it through okay. We both agreed that this was one of our least favorite Book Club books thus far, but Hannah gives a great idea on how it could have been more enjoyable. It’s always difficult to read a book that’s written by someone who isn’t a very reliable narrator (ahem Selma Blair). If you have other requests for our next Book Club, be sure to let us know! We’ll be taking a break for the month of December and be back for the New Year!

If you love us, leave us comments on social media and YouTube, or write a review with your 5-star rating. If you write us a nice review, DM us and we’ll send you some of our new stickers! Don’t forget to follow our socials, and find us on Spotify, YouTube, and Apple Podcasts. So grab your water bottles, and look out for new episodes every Friday!

Alexis Earns Her Pay (RHOC & Love is Blind Recaps)

Sat, 23 Nov 2024 01:46:09 GMT

It’s our 90th episode! We celebrated by having a slight technical difficulty, so we apologize for the change in audio about a quarter of the way through. In this episode, we discuss Liam Payne’s funeral, Kylie Jenner’s clothing line, celebrities in wigs, and the My Old Ass plot twist. We also give our thoughts on the news season of Love Is Blind and Emelia Perez which is oddly getting Oscar buzz.

Part 2 of the RHOC reunion covered most of the conflicts with the ladies. Emily decides she can make rude comments about others because she’s funny, Jenn defends Ryan until she’s blue in the face, and Shannon forgets that her career is also reality tv. RHOBH has also begun, so be sure to tune in for our recaps on that season!

Our Book Club episode will be next week! Make sure to finish reading Men Have Called Her Crazy by Anna Marie Tendler, so you can follow along and give your thoughts. If you love us, leave us comments on social media and YouTube, or write a review with your 5-star rating. If you write us a nice review, DM us and we’ll send you some of our new stickers!

We Want to Focus on the Salad (Martha Stewart Doc & RHOC Recaps)

Fri, 15 Nov 2024 09:00:00 GMT

A lot of news broke this week, but one of the most important stories to us was Megan Fox announcing her pregnancy with MGK. We still aren’t sure the status of their relationship, but we’re excited that they’re welcoming a rainbow baby into the world and love seeing a tiny glimpse into their, now private, lives. Teddi Mellencamp allegedly had an affair with her married horse trainer which led to her recently announcing her divorce. Unfortunately, it doesn’t seem that Teddi nor Edwin have the same philosophy as Martha Stewart when it comes to stepping outside a marriage! Hannah also watched It’s What’s Inside, and Ailish watched Don’t Move, which are both Netflix Original thrillers.

Part 1 of the RHOC reunion was filled with conflict that doesn’t seem to get resolved. They rehash Heather’s paparazzi “scandal”, Ryan’s alleged plea deal, and Shannon’s relationship with alcohol. With two more parts still to come, we hope they stick to topics that we saw on this season since many things getting brought up here seemed to happen years ago, or when the cameras were down.

Our Book Club will be pushed back a bit this month. If you’re planning on reading along with us, we’re reading Men Have Called Her Crazy by Anna Marie Tendler. This one took a while for us to get, so get on that waitlist now! If you love us, leave us comments on social media and YouTube, or write a review with your 5-star rating.

Touch Passes and Tacky Dresses (RHOC Recap)

Fri, 08 Nov 2024 09:00:47 GMT

We’re still coming off our high from the Halloween season as we talk about our experience at the Mansfield Reformatory Blood Prison. The touch passes are definitely worth it and you can check out the recap on our socials or by listening to this episode! There wasn’t a ton of news this week, so we discuss a couple Halloween celeb sightings, the upcoming Wicked release, and the ending of Nobody Wants This.

In Bravo news, we recap the season finale of RHOC. The tacky bridesmaid party was fun (except not everyone leaned into the theme) and we felt like a lot of the drama that was brought up was ready to be squashed. We’re tired of the kids getting brought in in weird ways and Shannon fleeing the scene when someone looks at her the wrong way. With the reunion starting this week, we’re guessing we’re going to get a full 3-parter in typical Bravo fashion when a season performs well. Compared to last season, we definitely enjoyed this one more even though some of our opinions didn’t align with the general public!

Halloween Edition (Costume Reveal, Movie Reviews, & RHOC)

Fri, 01 Nov 2024 08:00:39 GMT

Happy Halloween! Hannah and Ailish are back for another week and are finally able to reveal their Halloween costumes: the two versions of Maxine Minx! While you can’t see out whole costumes, the blue eye shadow and bleached brows really make the look. We also discuss some recent, celeb costumes and some other plans we have as we round out the Halloween season. This week, we loaded up on movies, so we break those down as well. Ailish watched Late Night with the Devil and It’s What’s Inside, while Hannah watched Infinity Pool and Woman of the Hour.

Things are fully starting to unravel on RHOC. It’s finally coming to light that all the ladies are talking about each other behind their backs and no one is a true friend. Unfortunately, this is made clear multiple times during this episode! Jenn and Tamra get into it the most on their last days in London, and Tamra continues to try and throw Shannon under the bus. We have to admit that we were pretty pleased with Heather calling Shannon out for controlling her narrative and being manipulative. Finally, someone says what we’ve been saying all season! Next week, we’ll discuss the finale and prep for the reunion.

Ailish’s Recommendation: X Trilogy

Jenn Finds Her Voice & Shannon Stirs the Pot (RHOC Recap + Menendez Resentencing)

Fri, 25 Oct 2024 08:00:33 GMT

This week on Emotional Support Water Bottle, Hannah and Ailish give their take on the possibility of the Menendez brothers getting resentenced. As you listen to this episode, there will probably be updated information and, who knows, the brothers could be getting ready to walk free after serving nearly 35 years. Hannah recently watched Don’t Worry Darling which lead to a discussion about the drama that surrounded the movie, the possibility of Shia LaBeouf starring instead of Harry Styles, and Olivia Wilde’s skills as a director. Ailish has been listening to the Witnessed podcast which got us thinking about popular conspiracy theories in light of all the Diddy allegations. Didn’t that start as a conspiracy too?

In RHOC, the ladies are still in London. This episode was filled with gossip and petty drama which can get annoying when it’s drug out for too long. (Ahem. Talking to you, Gina) Everyone is just talking about everyone at this point which caused Shannon to dig up some two-year-old text messages to really stir the pot between Jenn and Tamra. We had to hand it to Jenn, she finally found her voice! Unfortunately, we can’t help but wonder for how long.

Ailish’s Recommendation: Witnessed: Fade to Black

Lying in London (RHOC Recap + VS Fashion Show & Liam Payne)

Fri, 18 Oct 2024 08:00:16 GMT

Hannah and Ailish mourn Liam Payne this week as the shocking news of his passing breaks. It’s difficult to comprehend the accident and to think the first member of the iconic boy band, One Direction, is no longer with us. To switch gears, we also recap the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show which made a comeback after a hiatus. The vibe is definitely different, but that’s not a bad thing! We loved the show overall and loved all the surprise angels on the runway. Hannah has been watching the Alien movies as Halloween approaches, so she gives her thoughts so far, and Ailish talks about her recent road trip that took longer than expected.

In Bravo news, Tamra Judge announced on her podcast that she believes she’s on the spectrum after one appointment with a therapist. Is she using this “diagnosis” as an excuse for her bad behavior? In recapping last week’s episode, we move farther and farther away from Camp Shannon’s the Victim. Things just aren’t adding up and every time she’s confronted by an inconsistency or flat out lie, she runs away. At least they're all in London which has to make her behavior a little more tolerable.

Shannon Gets Her Flowers (RHOC S18 E12&13 & Pop Culture Recaps)

Fri, 11 Oct 2024 14:59:39 GMT

Hannah and Ailish are back with another episode of Emotional Support Water Bottle! This week, Ailish gives her opinions on Ryan Murphy’s newest projects: Grotesquerie and Monsters. As we discussed before, we feel weird about shows that depict people’s lives when they’re still alive, and the story of the Menendez Brothers has an extra layer of ick to it. Ryan Murphy seems to be blind to the fact that he is exploiting them instead of helping, especially when he adds he fetishized twists to their story. We’re also still talking about The Substance and the fact that Demi Moore (and Hollywood in general) refuses to admit the work they’ve gotten done. Hannah also shares her thoughts on The Butcher and the Wren and a recent wedding she went to that had TikTok undertones.

We also recap the last two episodes of RHOC since we skipped last week due to Book Club. Things are really heating up with Shannon and the ladies as they prepare for their London trip without Alexis!

Book Club: Rebel Rising by Rebel Wilson (+ The Substance Review)

Fri, 04 Oct 2024 08:00:03 GMT

In this week’s episode of Emotional Support Water Bottle, Hannah and Ailish review Rebel Wilson’s book, Rebel Rising. We did have some slightly differing opinions, but for the most part, we both enjoyed this book and learned quite a bit about Rebel’s career and life. She really put a lot into this book! So much so, that we actually had to leave a ton of funny, interesting, and sad stories out because there was so much to take in. Of course, we talk about the infamous SBC chapter and how the industry felt different for her after she lost weight. Listen to the full episode to hear all our thoughts!

Ailish was able to see The Substance this week, so we were finally able to fully dissect the movie. For those of you who haven’t seen it, skip ahead when we talk about it and go see that movie in theaters! It’s definitely an experience that you need to have there before you watch it from home. We both agree that Demi Moore and Maragret Qually give unbelievable performances, and we discuss the complexities of the film itself. We also went to the Ohio Renaissance Festival last weekend which was another new experience for us.

Many Hits & One Major Flop (Movie Talk & RHOC Recap)

Fri, 27 Sep 2024 08:00:58 GMT

This week on Emotional Support Water Bottle, Hannah and Ailish talk about so many movies you’ll think we talk about them for a living. Hannah gushes about Demi Moore’s new film, The Substance, and makes plans with Ailish to see it again in theaters. Ailish recently watched Dark Waters which had her thinking about all the hidden truths that haven’t been exposed yet. This is really timely considering everything being uncovered regarding Diddy, and we discuss other conspiracy theories that seemed impossible at the time but later were proven to be true. We also bring up the major rebrand of the upcoming movie My Old Ass with Aubrey Plaza, and how we could reignite excitement for the film industry.

In Bravo news, RHOSLC started with a bang. It’s a little awkward since the ladies don’t really want to talk about Monica too much, and we think they should have given the cast a season to settle before adding new members. Over at RHOC, Emily’s mean girl side has been unleashed. We found it really disappointing to watch this episode even though we can sympathize with Emily feeling self conscious about the fashion show. Otherwise, the episode was the biggest flop of the season.

Next week will be our Book Club episode! If you’re finishing up Rebel Rising by Rebel Wilson, get ready for a discussion next Friday. We’re always looking for suggestions on new books to read, so leave those for us in the comments or reviews as well. If you love us, leave us comments on social media and YouTube, or write a review with your 5-star rating. If you write us a nice review, DM us and we’ll send you some of our new stickers!

Beador vs Bellino (RHOC & Pop Culture Recaps)

Fri, 20 Sep 2024 08:00:00 GMT

On the podcast this week, Hannah and Ailish talk about the Emmys and the big winners of the night. We also both watched the new Netflix movie, Uglies, with Joey King and Chase Stokes. The movie was about what you would expect, and we wonder if some actors have contracts with Netflix or if they’re just easy to work with and can’t resist the paycheck. This leads us into a conversation about Letterboxd culture and how some reviews feel more like the TikTok comment section.

The feud between Shannon and Alexis continues on RHOC. We may be on the wrong side of history here, but we can’t help but feel like Alexis was making some good points when she was talking to Emily. Again, we end up feeling like the victim edit that Shannon is getting really overshadows some serious behavior from her that is going unaddressed. The rest of this episode is devoted to the Katie/Heather/Gina drama that no one really cares about at this point.

Ready for more Book Club? This month, we’re finally reading Rebel Rising by Rebel Wilson. Get on that waitlist so you can read along with us! Let us know what you’d like to hear from us in future episodes by leaving comments on social media and YouTube, or writing a review with your 5-star rating.

Our Unpopular Opinion (RHOC Recap + VMAs Fashion Police)

Fri, 13 Sep 2024 08:00:00 GMT

Hannah and Ailish give their live reactions to red carpet looks from the VMAs. The VMAs have always been iconic, and we’re pleasantly surprised by most of the fashion. We do a pretty good job of describing the looks, but it might help to reference a photo slideshow as well! Ailish watched The Perfect Couple this week and didn’t have a lot of positive things to say. There was quite a bit of hype around the release of this show, but it seemed to fully rely on its big-name stars like Nicole Kidman, Liev Schreiber, and Dakota Fanning. Netflix and Apple TV just can’t stop throwing big money into their original content! We also discuss the DWTS cast announcement, Lala’s baby name reveal, and the Nick Avocado drama to round out our timely topics for the week.

When it comes to RHOC, we really struggled with sharing our feelings. The way Tamra, Alexis, and John are treating Shannon is wrong, but it feels like that is overshadowing the severity of Shannon’s decisions. Listen to this episode and let us know if you agree with our viewpoint. Despite that, we’ve been enjoying this season for far and look forward to seeing what the rest of the season has to offer!

Show Jenn Some Kind of Kindness (RHOC Recap & Kinds of Kindness Review)

Fri, 06 Sep 2024 22:54:41 GMT

This week, Hannah and Ailish watched Kinds of Kindness by Yorgos Lanthimos. We decided we just aren’t the target audience, but then wondered, “who is?” Is this the kind of edgy and boundary-pushing film that only true cinephiles can appreciate, or is Yorgos playing a joke on all of us? We also discuss Simone Biles since Hannah recently read her book, and the recent Bachelorette finale drama.

We recapped the last two episodes of RHOC since we skipped last week, but we were both pretty disappointed by an episode devoted pretty much entirely to another reality show. The Traitors theme mixed with Teddi Mellencamp and the clear bias toward Jenn just left us feeling underwhelmed. Give that poor girl (no pun intended) a break already!

Book Club: Hits, Flops, and Other Illusions by Ed Zwick

Fri, 30 Aug 2024 08:00:00 GMT

Hannah and Ailish are back with their Book Club! We’ve been teasing our review of Hits, Flops, and Other Illusions by Ed Zwick for a while now, but the conversation was worth the wait. For those who don’t know (like us before we read this), Ed Zwick is an accomplished, true filmmaker who has worked on films such as Legends of the Fall, Blood Diamond, and Love & Other Drugs. If you have any interest in the film industry, this book is definitely for you since it gives you an inside look into how movies are made, what it’s like working with difficult actors, and details some interesting on-set stories. We’re getting back in the swing of monthly book club episodes, so be sure to let us know what you think we should read next!

We also do our usual pop culture recap since so much has happened in the Bravo Universe this week. Brittany Cartwright filed for divorce from Jax Taylor, The Valley is filming with Scheana and Lala, and Tom Girardi was found guilty for embezzlement and wire fraud. We also had two Gossip Girl weddings, a Bieber baby, and an album drop from Sabrina Carpenter! Since we covered a lot this episode, we’ll be doing a double RHOC recap next week.

Gina Dug A Hole & Can’t Get Out (RHOC + Pop Culture Recaps)

Fri, 23 Aug 2024 08:00:00 GMT

Hannah and Ailish give their updated thoughts on the It Ends With Us drama after last week’s movie review, and the sudden and aggressive takedown of Blake Lively. Ben Afleck and Jennifer Lopez officially announced their divorce this week, and we also discuss prenups and if two big-name stars in a relationship can actually go the distance. Ailish brings up a few movies she watched recently, and Hannah wonders if Chappell Roan spoke out against fan interaction in the right manner. We also dig into last week’s episode of RHOC where Gina is in conflict with half the cast, and Tamra continues to tear down Shannon when she’s at her lowest.

Next week, we’ll discuss Hits, Flops, and Other Illusions by Ed Zwick. Be sure to finish up the book before we review it!

It Ends With Us Movie Review (+RHONJ Finale)

Fri, 16 Aug 2024 08:00:00 GMT

Hannah and Ailish come to you from a parking lot after watching It Ends With Us! This movie has been highly anticipated, and the recent alleged drama behind the scenes has added to the buzz. We discuss our thoughts on the movie as a whole, rumors we’ve heard about the cast, and what we think is in store for the next installment. Ailish also watched the finale episode of RHONJ, and Hannah and Ailish discuss why the end of this season feels more final than the ending of Vanderpump Rules in the eyes of Bravo.

We’ll be discussing Hits, Flops, and Other Illusions by Ed Zwick soon. Be sure to finish up the book before we review it mid-August!

Katie Shanks It (RHOC + Pop Culture Recaps)

Fri, 09 Aug 2024 12:24:49 GMT

This week, Hannah and Ailish try to figure out all the drama with It Ends With Us leading up to its release, and make plans to see the movie over the weekend. Britney Spears announced that a movie is in the works based on her book, and we also discuss potential casting decisions and how Blake Lively threw her hat in the ring to play Britney. We also recap the last two episodes of RHOC which were both randomly centered around sports. Katie thinks she has a hole in one when it comes to her evidence about Heather, but we think her need for conflict sent her over par.

Ailish’s Recommendation: Lemon Bars (Add reduced blueberries on top!)

Talking Movies & Tradwives (Trap, It Ends with Us, Lisa Frankenstein + Ballerina Farm)

Jenn’s In Too Deep (RHOC Recap + Twisters Review, MGK/ Megan Fox & Hailey Bieber News)

Fri, 26 Jul 2024 14:20:19 GMT

Our new stickers are in! Check out our Instagram to see our offerings and if you leave us a nice review, we’ll send you some! After you leave your review, send us a dm with your info and we’ll mail them right away. Hannah went to see Twisters and gives her review of the movie and Glen Powell. Ailish finished season 3 of The Bear and was blown away by the performance by Jamie Lee Curtis which leads us into a conversation about Freaky Friday 2 which is currently filming. We also discuss Hailey Bieber’s recent interview with W Magazine, MGK and Megan Fox, the Katy Perry hate, and the upcoming Olympics.

Remember, we’re a week behind in discussing RHOC since we record on Wednesdays, so we talk episode 2 here. We seem to be in the minority who are supportive of Jenn in the Gina/Jenn feud. While we do agree that getting full glam all the time for filming isn’t the greatest look when you’re in financial difficulties, we think Gina’s explosion at the coffee shop was out of line. We also give our take on newcomer Katie, and talk about Jenn’s appearance on WWHL.

We’re also bringing back our Book Club! For the month of July, join us in reading Hits, Flops, and Other Illusions by Ed Zwick.

Horror, Housewives, & House Bunnies (Maxxxine Review, RHOC Recap + More)

Fri, 19 Jul 2024 08:00:00 GMT

After planning to see Maxxxine over the weekend, we’re pleased to announce that we did and we’re sharing our thoughts! Hannah also read Crystal Hefner’s book which brought up some interesting conversation and conflicting feelings. You may have noticed we also have the long-anticipated cover art that we’ve been talking about for a few months updated on all platforms. Be sure to let us know what you think!

In the Bravoverse, Jenn Pedranti was awarded much-needed financial support from her ex-husband, and the news broke on Wednesday that Tom Sandoval was suing Ariana in relation to invasion of privacy. Since then, he has redacted his suit, but we discuss our initial thoughts in this episode. As you know, our discussions surrounding RHOC will always be a week behind since we record on Wednesdays, so this week, we talk about Episode 1 of Season 18.

Different Versions of Ourselves (Pop Culture & Life Recap)

Fri, 12 Jul 2024 13:19:22 GMT

We’re back after a long 4th of July weekend, and the fireworks are still going off and terrorizing the dogs. This week, we catch up on pop culture news, movies we’ve seen recently, and our weekend plans. Ailish watched Pearl and X, so we discuss the movies more in detail as we prepare to see Maxxxine over the weekend. Hannah also offers her review on Bodies, Bodies, Bodies (spoilers if you haven’t watched!) and Inside Out 2, and gives an update on her LetterBoxd page. We also talk about how we feel like a different version of ourselves when we’re around certain groups of people and how that makes us reevaluate who we spend time with.

We’re looking forward to RHOC starting this week, but aren’t sure if we’ll be doing a weekly recap yet. Since we felt a little burnt out after last season (and with Bravo in general), we’ll see how the season goes. We’re interested in the dynamics of this season, but worry about Tamra being Tamra.

We’re also bringing back our Book Club! For the month of July, join us in reading Hits, Flops, and Other Illusions by Ed Zwick.

Striving to be Suki Waterhouse (Pop Culture & Life Recap)

Fri, 05 Jul 2024 08:00:00 GMT

It’s 4th of July weekend and the fireworks are taking their toll on the dogs. Last week, we had a Zombie story and this week, you’ll see poor Winnie shaking like a leaf when the weekend hadn’t even started yet. In this episode, we discuss Ailish’s weekend in Cincinnati, Hannah’s 4th of July plans, and ideas for updating our podcast cover that we still haven’t gotten around to. After British Vogue released their interview with Suki Waterhouse, we’ve fallen in love with one of our generation’s It Girl yet again. We love how open and honest she was in this interview and it leads us to a discussion about Robert Pattinson, Mia Goth, Shia LaBeouf, and the fate of the movie industry.

We’re also bringing back our Book Club! For the month of July, join us in reading Hits, Flops, and Other Illusions by Ed Zwick.

Post-Vacation Recovery (Pop Culture Recap + RHONJ Discussion)

Fri, 28 Jun 2024 08:00:00 GMT

We’re back and have so much to catch up on! A lot has happened in pop culture while we’ve been on our vacations, and we’re ready to share all our thoughts. We start this episode by recapping our vacations and Hannah shares the struggles of long car rides with young children. This is something all parents can relate to, so if you have any tips, be sure to share them in the comments! As far as pop culture goes, we discuss Justin Timberlake’s DUI, Brooke Schofield’s TikTok storytime, and rumors about Nick Viall’s marriage. Ailish also started watching RHONJ and we discuss the future of that franchise. We also compare the shooting schedule of Love Island UK to that of VPR, Housewives, and the Kardashians, and how a faster turn around might be what these shows need to keep their audience engaged.

Be sure to tune in next week where we reveal the book we’ll be reading for July’s Book Club so you can read along with us!

What Comes After Vanderpump Rules? (Secrets Revealed Discussion)

Fri, 07 Jun 2024 03:00:00 GMT

We’re on vacation this week, so this episode is an extension of last week’s. We discuss the opening of Something About Her, some other pop culture topics, and any updates from our personal lives.

To wrap up our Vanderpump Rules talk, we dig into a couple points of note from the uncut and Secrets Revealed episodes. Some storylines that would’ve been more compelling were cut from the season like sweet moments between Katie and Tom, and lighthearted scenes like Lisa visiting James’s new house. Unfortunately, producers decided to completely suck the life out of us and drag the Scandoval storyline out within an inch of its life. There seems to be a lot of noise coming from the rejected peanut gallery (Jo and Billie Lee…) that we probably won’t take the time to discuss going forward. We need a bit of a break after this disappointing and exhausting season!

What show should we focus on instead? Let us know what you’d like to hear from us in future episodes by leaving comments on social media and YouTube, or writing a review with your 5-star rating.

Vanderpump Rules is Ruined (Vanderpump Rules Reunion Part 3 Recap)

Fri, 31 May 2024 08:00:00 GMT

At the top of this episode, we discuss our Memorial Day Weekends. Living in Northern Ohio does have its perks, one being how close it is to Lake Erie, and the two of us enjoyed some time near the water over the long weekend. Since we’ll both be on vacation in June, we split this episode into two parts so we don’t miss a week of providing content for our loyal listeners.

The meat and potatoes of this episode is obviously our thoughts on Part 3 of the VPR Reunion. This episode alone was almost as disappointing as all of season 11 put together. Friendships have been completely severed, boundaries have been disrespected, and the definition of honesty was changed. As you can tell by our conversation, we cannot understand where Lala is coming from with her allegations of dishonesty and frustration. We believe she rolled with a storyline that clearly didn’t resonate with the viewers like she and production thought it would, and she’s looking for someone to blame. It’s hard to watch Ariana be blindsided once again, and then be told she’s not being vulnerable and real. Where does the show go from here? Be sure to listen to our full episode and share your thoughts!

Couch Surfing at Schwartz’s (Vanderpump Rules Reunion Part 2 Recap + RHOBH Cast Announcement)

Fri, 24 May 2024 08:00:00 GMT

The rising temperatures have us talking like native Ohioans at the top of this episode. Turning on your AC for the first time of the season is a big deal and we know some of our listeners can relate! We also discuss an interesting, somewhat traumatizing, topic that was brought up on Juicy Scoop, the lack-luster reveal of the RHOBH cast, and prepping ourselves for swimsuit season.

While this episode of the VPR reunion was kind of boring, there were still some great one-liners from Ariana during the discourse with Lala. She makes a very valid point by saying “you talk louder than everybody and so you’re right” because that is Lala to a T! Things got pretty awkward when Jo stepped on set and we couldn’t understand how Katie was made out to be the only villain when Schwartz toyed with her feelings all season. But hey, it’s good to know that we’ll always have a place to crash at Schwartz’s as long as we make clear boundaries.To hear all of our thoughts on this week’s VPR and join the conversation, listen to our full episode.

Lala’s Twisted Timeline (Vanderpump Rules Reunion Part 1 Recap)

Thu, 16 May 2024 08:00:00 GMT

To begin this week’s episode, we discuss some fresh pop culture topics like Sophie Turner’s interview with British Vogue, the announcement of the Golden Bachelorette, and if Taylor is at-risk of getting the ick from Travis. Hannah also shares her thoughts on the book Beautiful Boy.

The first part of the VPR Reunion was mostly what we expected: a slow burn. Toward the end of the episode, Lala yet again puts on her producer hat and throws poor Katie completely under the bus which left her a little taken off guard. To hear the rest of our thoughts, check out the full episode!

From Met Ball to Breaking the 4th Wall (Vanderpump Rules Season 11 Finale + Met Gala Recap)

Fri, 10 May 2024 08:00:00 GMT

This week was filled with highs and lows. It started off on such a high with the Met Gala, and quickly plummeted after the Vanderpump Finale a day later. For the most part, we enjoyed the theme of the Gala, even though it was a little confusing, and saw many looks on the carpet that we thought were worthy of a conversation. Loewe definitely won the night with killer looks everywhere you turned! We also talked about the history of the Met Gala and fantasized about being invited one day. The way that invite list keeps growing, it’s not a crazy thought!

What can we say about the VPR finale except that we were disappointed and disgusted. If this really is the end of the show for good, we can’t say we’re that sad to see it go. With more seasons like that, the show wouldn’t be able to survive another season anyway. While we love a good 4th wall break, the one Lala tried to execute at the end fell flatter than one of Schwartz’s awkward jokes. This got us thinking how the break might also be beneficial to the audience since we can’t even stomach the thought of watching Lala, Scheana, and Sandoval on our screens anytime soon. Listen to the full episode to hear all our thoughts!

Ailish’s Recommendation: Chappell Roan

Dan in Real Life (Vanderpump Rules S11 Ep 14 Recap)

Fri, 03 May 2024 08:00:00 GMT

On the podcast this week, we breakdown some of the breaking news coming out of the Bravoverse. From the May 22 opening of Something About Her to RHOBH producers allegedly giving Dorit and Kyle an ultimatum, we discuss it all. Hannah also brings up Elizabeth Smart’s book and Ailish introduces the viral discussion “man or bear.”

On VPR, Scheana and Sandoval immediately make up following their blowout fight at the end of last episode. We also find out that Ann has started working for Ariana and Katie, but WWHL revealed that she has since had to take a different job. Later, the cast takes a trip to San Francisco for Kyle Chan’s whiskey launch where we get some real time with Ariana and Dan. While watching this episode, we felt so frustrated and more disheartened. It’s unfathomable that people who are supposed to be Ariana’s friends are continuously defending her ex and trying to make her out to be the problem. *Queue Lala’s horrid comments about her relationship with Dan* The episode wraps up with Schwartz proposing a one-night-stand with Katie and Schean, yet again, having a “heartfelt” conversation with Sandoval. While we loved what Scheana had to say, given Sandoval’s behavior in recent months, it seems like it all fell on deaf ears.

Once a Sur Employee, Always a Sur Employee: Jax is Back (Vanderpump Rules S11 Ep13 Recap)

Fri, 26 Apr 2024 08:00:00 GMT

We dig into a lot of timely, pop culture topics to start this episode. From Paris Hilton revealing her sweet baby London and Alex Cooper’s wedding, to the hype behind Baby Reindeer and the possible TikTok ban, we cover it all in the first half. Have thoughts on these topics? Be sure to share them with us in the comments on Spotify and YouTube!

Jax Taylor is back to begin this episode of VPR. He’s around to throw a brunch at Sur with James which leads to a confrontation with LVP. Both of us felt a little conflicted by the current state of their relationship. On one hand, Lisa and Jax really didn’t leave things in a good place and, at the end of the day, she was his employer. However, she was always like a mother-figure to him and she was in his life a significant amount of time, so cutting contact does seem a bit harsh. Some of you might disagree, but we had to side with James when it came to leaving Hippie with a stranger to travel for a wedding. Given all that the dog has gone through, he needs some stability and it just didn’t seem like the right time. Of course, Lala had to insert herself into the situation and announce that her experiences trump everyone else's, and make the claim that James always puts himself before Ally. We also see a pretty nasty blow up between Scheana and Sandoval to close out the episode which left us exhausted by his behavior yet again. Hannah continues to feel a little disheartened by this season of Vanderpump, but Ailish is trying to be positive. Both of us do wonder where next season can go from here when there’s been so much division between the cast which makes interactions feel less genuine.

From a Ferrari to a Jetta (Vanderpump Rules S11 Ep12 Recap)

Fri, 19 Apr 2024 08:00:00 GMT

This week, we discuss some recent books Hannah listened to which brings us into a discussion on true crime. We both love to listen to podcasts and watch documentaries, but when the victim isn’t the main focus, it leaves us feeling conflicted. To lighten up the mood, we also talk about weekend 1 of Coachella, rumors about Andy Cohen leaving Bravo, and Hannah’s son’s recent birthday.

Switching gears to VPR! This was another episode we just weren’t fans of. As we’ve said in previous episodes, Lala is getting on our nerves and it seems like she’s self-producing too much, which is something Katie recently said on Danny Pellegrino’s podcast. The sperm party was not fun to watch, and asking Ariana and Lisa to host it at their houses made things more strange. This episode lines up with the drop of Rachel’s interview with Bethany, so that was a throughline as well. We also see a tender moment between James and Ally where they discuss their future together.Don’t forget to follow our socials, leave some feedback and a rating, and give us a follow on Spotify, YouTube, and Apple Podcasts.

Goodbye Jo, Hello Toner (Vanderpump Rules S11 Ep11 Recap)

Fri, 12 Apr 2024 08:00:00 GMT

Our 60th episode is here, and we’re ready to talk about our high school tennis careers and early seasons of America’s Next Top Model! Thinking about how Zendaya has been killing it at the Challengers premieres got us reminiscing on what our doubles game could have been. Not all is lost though, because we’ll be honing our skills this summer and be ready for action by next year. If anyone knows any tennis leagues near us, comment and let us know! We also talk more about ANTM since Hannah started rewatching from the beginning. There’s just something about those early seasons that really have a hold on us.

Another week goes by and we’re left feeling frustrated with VPR. Between the comments being made in the confessionals and during the after show, to digs coming to Instagram and Amazon Lives, we just don’t know where the cast will stand next season. We’ve discussed our issues with Lala’s actions again and again so far this season, and we’re starting to sound like broken records! In this week’s episode, we do see Jo hate-dye Schwartz’s hair which adds a bit of entertainment. After seeing a post by a super sleuth and doing some digging of our own, we discover some interesting facts about Jo’s career as a hairstylist. Regardless of all that, we do actually feel bad for Jo since it’s clear that Schwartz led her on for way too long. We also see the first glimpses of the Tori love triangle and Lala’s sperm bank journey.

Ariana & Katie vs. Everyone (Vanderpump Rules S11 Ep10 Recap)

Fri, 05 Apr 2024 08:00:00 GMT

We’re back together, live and in person! We’re feeling a little in our feelings post-holiday, and hope some of you can relate to not getting an Easter basket as an adult or difficult conversations at the family dinner table. After recapping Elliot Page’s book last week, Hannah rewatched Juno. That movie still gets laughs today and the soundtrack will always be synonymous with the early 2000s indie era. Ailish also watched Apples Never Fall and All of Us Strangers, and gave solid reviews for both.

This week’s episode of VPR attempted to paint Ariana Madix as the victim, Post-reunion, a certain costar has even made it her mission in life to bash her any chance she gets (ahem…Lala). We can talk about this until we’re blue in the face, but Ariana is feeling all her feelings and that’s totally okay. We loved what Nicola Coughlan said on WWHL about friends who went through a similar situation in our normal lives would be given at least a year to grieve and “act out”. Ariana is going through her grieving and mourning process; leave her alone! Things really heat up at the pool party which, unfortunately, continues into Beach Day pt. 2. The gang tried horrible jokes, sticking up for Sandoval, and silence, but none of these things could fully salvage the day. Except maybe Scheana randomly mentioning that all the guys in the group have flirted with her at some point. That did take the focus off of Tom and Ariana for a second! In the uncensored and uncut edition of this episode, we also saw some confessional clips from Ann, and a very telling lunch with the Toms and Kyle Chan. Knowing that horrible conversation was edited out makes us believe the men have been getting the good edit for years and that Stassi was right.

Sharing Locations and Deep Breathing Meditation (Vanderpump Rules S11 Ep9 Recap)

Fri, 29 Mar 2024 08:00:00 GMT

We’re virtual again this week, as we discuss Rebel Wilson’s new book, Pageboy by Elliot Page, and the book version of Poor Things. Rebel Wilson made headlines this week by exposing Sacha Baron Cohen as a creep who was trying to stop her from talking about him in her upcoming memoir. Needless to say, this is one we’ll definitely be reading and recapping on a future episode of the pod. Hannah’s been flying through the audiobooks and recently finished Pageboy and Poor Things. We discuss Elliot Page’s honesty and how many of the sexual scenes were left out of the book version of Poor Things compared to the movie. We also quickly discuss the somewhat shocking news that Variety recently broke about RHOBH breaking franchise records. We’re definitely skeptical, but believe this had to be because the entire season was a tease about Kyle Richards’ love life.Digging into VPR, we honestly felt like this episode was another choppy one. It was more put together than last week’s episode, but that really isn’t saying very much. Tom and his friends continue to disrespect Ariana’s no-contact request and put her in uncomfortable situations regarding the house and their dog Mya. We finally hear the “whole story” on the Schwartz and Scheana kiss which left us conflicted. While we agree that it’s not something that should have ever happened and it would be hurtful for Katie to find out even now, it doesn’t change the fact that Schwartz and Katie are divorced. With some of the comments made, it does make us wonder about Scheana’s relationship with Katie and Lala. Tom Sandoval also brings Lala and us along on his very uncomfortable, deep breathing meditation journey. Let’s just say, it sounded like he reeeally enjoyed himself…The other bombshell of the episode came from Brock’s ultimate betrayal. We were absolutely floored watching Brock throw his wife under the bus when he so casually shared that she was nosey about a friend’s location. Let’s all be honest with ourselves, we’ve all been Scheana and snooped on our friends, but never would expect our spouse to expose and humiliate us! We also both watched The Valley and can’t understand why Kristen, Jax, and Brittany couldn’t just come back on VPR. That aside, we’re enjoying that show way more than expected and the friend dynamics are keeping us engaged.

That Jax Taylor Energy (Vanderpump Rules S11 Ep8 Recap + Megan Fox on Call Her Daddy)

Fri, 22 Mar 2024 08:00:00 GMT

This week, Alex Cooper gifted us with a Megan Fox interview on Call Her Daddy and it gave us life. Megan doesn’t do a ton of interviews like this, so it was fun to hear her speak so openly about some topics she doesn’t usually address. We clearly can’t get enough and you already know how much we love Megan if you listened to this past episode. Hannah also recently watched the Eras Tour movie and shares the differences between that and being there live. This gets us wondering how Taylor Swift will be able to tour in the future. How could any tour top this one?? We get a little spooky discussing the Riley Strain case and our own experience helping someone who was lost during a night out. VPR was kind of lack luster this week and felt like a choppy, Franenstein episode. The scenes seemed kind of random and nothing really had a great flow. The details from the After Show continue to give more insight and we were pretty disappointed in some of Lala’s comments about Ariana and Katie. Watching Sandoval have his “sexy singles pool party” was boarderline painful, and we aren’t buying his schtick that he doesn’t know how to talk to women anymore. He didn’t have a problem doing that before…The shining moment of this episode for us was when Jax came on the screen. Hannah described it as “surreal” and Ailish felt he brought the juice back to VPR. Love him or hate him, but there’s no denying that Jax is great for reality TV. The transition from VPR to The Valley wasn’t as seamless as the RHOBH to VPR transition, but how can they really top that? We’re not sure if we’ll watch The Valley weekly, but we were both pleasantly surprised by the first episode.

Our Eyes See…Vanderpump…(Vanderpump Rules S11 Ep7 & RHOBH Recap + Oscars Highlights)

Fri, 15 Mar 2024 08:00:00 GMT

Is anyone else dragging post time change? We’ve both been struggling ever since the clocks went forward, and we know we can’t be the only ones. The Oscars even started an hour earlier to accommodate! To wrap up award season, we give you a relatively quick recap of some of our favorite fashions and moments from the Oscars. Now we can finally stop talking about the Barbinheimer competition! Hannah also dishes on her trip to see the Cancelled Podcast tour, and how she was overcome with emotion at the sight of Tata Mongeau and Brooke Schofield’s hair.

This week’s episode of VPR was definitely better than the last, but the dynamics of the group are still very strained which continues to make it difficult to fully enjoy. As we mentioned before, hopefully, the closing of the Lake Tahoe trip will also mean we’re closing all the Rachel talk. It certainly seemed like it after Lisa told Tom Sandoval she spoke to her and delivered the message that Rachel wants nothing to do with him. We also see Katie show some emotion when she’s talking to Scheana about her conflicted feelings which we both wish we could see more of. It seems like Katie and Ariana are really holding back on their true feelings this season. Lala also confides in Lisa that she’s working on moving forward with finding a sperm donor, and we find out from the after show that she’s due in September. The last couple of weeks, we’ve been struggling to cover RHOBH, but the end of the reunion is near with our recap of part two. In this episode, Kyle and Dorit feud over their friendship, Kyle accuses Sutton of not showing enough of her life on the show, Garcelle denies insinuating Dorit’s robberies were planned, and Crystal questions whether Tom Girardi actually has dementia. Annemarie was there too, but was conveniently cropped out of most of the shots so her second season isn’t looking hopeful!

Tears Over Lake Tahoe (Vanderpump Rules S11 Ep6 & RHOBH Recap)

Fri, 08 Mar 2024 09:00:00 GMT

In this week’s episode, we discuss some breaking news regarding the tragedy on the Rust set. The armorer, Hannah Gutierrez-Reed, was charged with involuntary manslaughter and will face up to three years in prison. This left us wondering what Alec Baldwin’s fate will be when he goes to trial in July. We also discussed some news from the Bravoverse: Lala Kent announced her pregnancy via IUI. We’re happy for her and think every woman has the right to have a child however they see fit, but we’re a little conflicted by the narrative she’s been repeating on podcasts and interviews. Switching gears, we also go back in time to reminisce on some skate shows and movies from our youth. Anyone remember Rocket Power, Lords of Dogtown, Scarred, and Brink!?VPR kept us in Lake Tahoe again this week and Scheana was going through it! Tears were shed in nearly every scene and it took Brock an uncomfortably long time to come to his wife’s defense regarding Sandoval. To no one’s surprise, Tom Sandoval continues to reject any thought of taking an ounce of accountability which is starting to exhaust us. Watching him act like a pouty child on TV every week isn’t fun. Meanwhile, Katie and Ariana conduct interviews for a sandwich shop that still isn’t open in the present day. We wish those two would give more this season, but so far, their scenes have been a snoozefest. With that being said, the episodes continue to be enjoyable, but we’re hoping things switch up after the crew gets back from their trip. Part 1 of the RHOBH reunion was unfortunately lacking much like the rest of the season. Dorit continues to be tone deaf and ignorant with her words, Annemarie brings up things that were happening in her personal life that weren’t shown on the show, and Kyle accuses Dorit of playing into what the audience wants. Part 2 brings a confrontation between Kyle and Sutton, so hopefully things start to liven up. Speaking of Housewives, we also discuss a polarizing conversation on a recent episode of Juicy Scoop where Heather, Brandy, and Julie discuss whether reality stars should be paid based on what drama they bring to a season.

Lisa Vanderpump’s Intrusive Thoughts Win (Vanderpump Rule S11 Ep5 & RHOBH Recap + Love Is Blind)

Fri, 01 Mar 2024 09:00:00 GMT

February comes to a close as does season 13 of RHOBH and we have to admit, we’re a little relieved. The second half of this season really just didn’t do it for us which is a shame because it started out pretty strong. We’re still holding out hope that the finale will bring some heat, but we’re keeping our expectations on the lower side. The finale episode was basically all about Kyle and Mauricio’s Annual White Party being at Sofi stadium. Sure, that was impressive, but isn’t it completely over-the-top and unnecessary? After all, this used to be a party that was held in their backyard…The main action came after the cameras went down and picked up about a month later. Kyle and Mauricio have an emotional sit down with their daughters to discuss their separation. The emotions were pretty raw for the girls, especially Portia, and it left us wondering if this was something that should have been done off-camera.

VPR brought us to Lake Tahoe this week and Sandoval continuously got emotional about being “welcomed” back into the group. While saying he was welcomed with open arms is a major stretch, he has come a long way from being shunned by every cast member as if he’s wearing a scarlet letter. We also see some extremely awkward fighting between Scheana and Brock which had us seeing some red flags, and watched as Sandova continued to manipulate..I mean… acknowledge the feelings of others. Somehow, he’s able to apologize and say all the right things to everyone but Ariana, but he still won’t accept responsibility for his own actions when he so clearly is in the wrong. Graham is also officially renamed Hippie which is pretty satisfying.

We also discuss Ailish’s mindset for dating in her 30s, Hannah fills Ailish in on Love Is Blind, and we share our confusion on Jennifer Lopez, her new movie, and her career in general.

Graham’s Grand Return (Vanderpump Rules S11 Ep 4 & RHOBH Recap)

Fri, 23 Feb 2024 09:00:00 GMT

This week on the pod, we get a little more personal, and talk about what it means to be a woman and some of the pressures women in their 30s experience. At times, it’s felt like femininity has been almost villainized in the media and our feelings were confirmed by a recent TikTok Ailish saw. Hannah has also felt bombarded with questions about when she’s planning on having another child even though her youngest is only 1 ½. On the opposite end of the spectrum, Ailish has been stewing over some negative comments a coworker recently made about having children in your 30s. At the end of the day, we feel people should think before they speak and maybe keep their opinions to themselves.

This week’s episode of VPR really got Hannah fired up because of all the flip flopping when it came to Tom Sandoval. While we agree that Lisa was right to bring her concerns for Tom’s mental state to Lala and Scheana’s attention, we thought placing guilt on them was entirely inappropriate. Lala also apologizes to Schwartz which was nice, but it gave us a little whiplash. It’s great that Lala is working on herself and it’s understandable that that can take time, however, the explosions and apologies are getting exhausting. James gives some insight as to why he stopped drinking this time around, but it feels like this time it might be for good (yes, that’s been said before…) And how could we not mention the star of this episode: the dog formerly known as Graham. We were genuinely shocked to see the James/Graham reunion at Vanderpump Dogs, but had some mixed feelings about the scene as a whole.

We fly through RHOBH again this week, but feel hopeful that the finale and reunions will be more interesting and enjoyable to watch. This season started out great and really lost steam over the past few weeks. The same storylines and unsaid undertones are really turning us off!

Ariana Takes A Stand & Schwartz Stands By His Man (Vanderpump Rules S11 Ep 3, RHOBH + Super Bowl & Taylor Swift)

Sat, 17 Feb 2024 23:47:30 GMT

Now that football season is over, what will come of Taylor and Travis? We ponder that on this week’s episode, and give our honest thoughts about Travis’ emotional moment on the sidelines. As Millenials, we also really enjoyed Usher’s halftime performance, but noticed the love wasn’t shared by all on social media. We also share our opinions on appropriate funeral attire, Kim Kardashian and Odell Beckham Jr. going public, and Scott Disick’s recent thin appearance.

We’re continuing to enjoy this season of Vanderpump Rules, but can’t help but wonder if the season will be overpowered by the strong emotions of some of the group. Unshockingly, we’re having a difficult time stomaching Tom Sandoval’s deflections and combative behavior that have continued to present-day. We sided with Lisa, but also felt Sandoval was using some of his manipulation tactics on her. Schwartz tried to “get the gang back together” by suggesting a Tahoe trip that coincides with Lisa preparing Wolf by Vanderpump for opening. It’s no surprise Ariana wasn’t on board, and the rest of the group stayed relatively silent. While Schwartz has certainly behaved badly toward Ariana, we felt her aggression and harsh words might be a little misplaced. Still, Schwartz refuses to give up on his friendship with Sandoval even though it might not be serving him anymore.

To wrap things up, we discuss RHOBH where the ladies are spending their last day in Barcelona. This season has been a bit lack-luster for us, even though we have been entertained. It feels like so many things are being left unsaid, so we wonder if things will finally come to a head at the reunion.

Much Like Tom Sandoval, We’re Back! (Vanderpump Rules, RHOBH, Grammys Recap)

Fri, 09 Feb 2024 09:00:00 GMT

After some crazy weather and a bout of sickness, we’re back together to record in person! We begin this episode by recapping the Grammys. It might have been a year or two since we watched, but it felt a lot less exciting and, yet again, the event space seemed really cramped. Remember when the Grammys were famous for their iconic collab performances? Well, that seems to be a thing of the past. We were really impressed by Miley Cyrus’ growth and maturity, and loved her performance! Hannah’s been reading a lot recently and shared her thoughts on Hannah Brown’s and Damien Echols’ respective books. We can all agree that Hannah Brown’s season of the Bachelorette and the Bachelor season that followed were two of the most dramatic and unhinged seasons in Bachelor franchise history, but we didn’t really know much about Hannah’s early years. Turns out, she had some intense trauma that she was never able to fully process. We also discuss this week’s episode of Juicy Scoop with Diablo Cody where she and Heather talk about transparency within the entertainment industry.

This week’s episode of Vanderpump Rules felt like a classic episode. Tom Sandoval has returned from filming Special Forces and we get a peek at how he and Ariana are cohabitating. We definitely don’t envy poor Ann and can see why she recently quit! Scheana continues to get real about her postpartum struggle with OCD, and she and Brock get in kind of an awkward fight where her mom and babysitter get involved. The cherry on top of this episode was definitely Tom Sandoval calling James a narcissist for refusing to rehash something that happened 10 years ago. He’s heard the word so much over the months post-Scandoval, so he decided to try it on someone other than himself. RHOBH was another snoozer this week, so we kept the recap pretty quick. We did love drunk Erika at dinner though! Don’t forget to follow our socials, leave some feedback, and give us a follow on Spotify, YouTube, and Apple Podcasts.

VPR Tom-foolery (VPR Premiere, The Viall Files, RHOBH + Brittany Mahomes Drama)

Fri, 02 Feb 2024 09:00:00 GMT

It's our 50th episode! We're remote again this week, but that doesn't stop us from discussing everything Vanderpump related. To begin this episode, we break our boycott against The Viall Files in order to listen to his interview with Tom Sandoval and Tom Schwartz. It was interesting to say the least! While we were glad to hear that Nick was attempting to get answers from Sandoval, we don't believe he went about it the right way and it caused the interview to go completely off the rails. It didn't help that Nick hasn't watched even half of the seasons or that Sandoval may or may not have been under the influence. Say what you want about Schwartz, but he did make a valiant effort to make some sense of Sandoval's scattered and defensive comments!

From there we dove into what we've been waiting months for: the season 11 Vanderpump Rules premiere. This episode wasn't shocking, but it brought us up to speed on what everyone had been up to and kept us entertained. We particularly loved seeing James and Schwartz bond and the girls connecting over common enemies, and didn't care for the Lala/Rachel plotline and rehashing all the Scandoval details. Hannah brings up some thoughtful points after rewatching seasons 1-10 and Ailish adds tidbits from the After Show. We can't wait for the rest of this season and even more excited to discuss with all of you!

To wrap up the episode, we also discuss the Brittany Mahomes drama from last week’s playoff game and how she’s always going to be compared to Taylor Swift. Why don’t people vibe with Brittany? RHOBH didn’t particularly excite us this week, so we mainly talked about the AnneMarie situation. Amanda Hirsch of Not Skinny But Not Fat had a great interview with Theresa Caputo and Ailish explains how it struck a nerve with her.

Oscar Snubs and Monica Flubs (RHOBH, RHOSLC, Southern Charm Recap + Oscar Noms & PFW)

Fri, 26 Jan 2024 09:00:00 GMT

We’re virtual again this week, but this time things were smooth sailing! We always prefer to be in person, but the Ohio weather is starting to catch up to us. We start this episode with some Southern Charm talk. The reunion wrapped up last week and Shep Rose got really vulnerable about his recent actions at Bravo Con and his relationship with alcohol. This made us think about one of our early episodes where we talked about drinking culture and partying to excess after a certain point in life. Because drinking is such a huge facet in the Bravo universe, we felt it was really brave of Shep to open up about his struggles and feelings. Since we’re both watching seasons 1-3 of RHOSLC, we talk about all the Jen Shah craziness. It’s almost unfathomable how loyal and forgiving the ladies were to Jen. we had to ask ourselves, would we have had a different feeling about Jen if we were watching these seasons in real time? We also discuss part 3 of the season 4 reunion. Lying the way Monica did was wrong, but we don’t believe she should be compared to Jen. It’s like the ladies still feel some sort of strange loyalty or fear of Jen which is making them overly attack Monica. We’re sad she won’t be joining next season and hope the door is still open for future seasons.

We also recap last week’s episode of RHOBH which we felt was kind of boring. Yet again, Annemarie is feuding with Sutton about the size of her esophagus. Why this storyline has had a three episode arc is beyond us! Annemarie has also been doubling down on social media defending her stance as a medical professional, but is it even her place to keep commenting on this? Thankfully, Annemarie seems to move on this week when she goes after Crystal for seemingly no reason. Outside of the Bravoverse, Oscar nominations were announced and there were some notable snubs. Most people were shocked by Greta Gerwig and Margot Robbie being left out, but we were wondering about Barry Keoghan, Charles Melton, Julianne Moore, and Leo DiCaprio! Paris Fashion Week has rolled around and there’s been a lot of talk about Kylie Jenner and her facial fillers.

Vanderpump Premiere Party & Book Club Replay

Fri, 19 Jan 2024 09:00:00 GMT

Technical difficulties cursed us again! Since the weather was bad in Northern Ohio, we opted for a virtual recording session. Everything was going great, until we stopped and realized only Hannah’s audio and video was recording! So this week, you’ll be enjoying 20 minutes of us talking about the Vanderpump Rules Premiere Party in LA and a portion of our Greenlights Book Club episode. VPR doesn’t premiere for the masses until January 30, but we got a little teaser from the party on Wednesday. Scheana even drops some shade on a certain other podcaster (who we’re tired of talking about) and the “payroll husband” merch they released for no reason. Since then, Scheana has dropped her own merch stating “You’re giving me the ick”. Should we buy some in support?

In our replay of Greenlights by Matthew McConaughey, we talk about exactly why we loved this memoir. It definitely gave us a lot of laughs and we learned a lot about the man behind some of our favorite rom coms. Be sure to listen to the whole episode using the link below! Next week, we’ll have so much to talk about since we’ll be making up for the content we lost in this episode, so get ready!

Fashion Police 2.0 (Golden Globes, Rachel Goes Rogue, Kylie & Timmy + RHOBH & RHOSLC)

Fri, 12 Jan 2024 09:00:00 GMT

We start this episode by recapping our favorite looks from the Golden Globes. If you didn’t watch, feel free to skip ahead to (35:56). Overall, the stars really delivered and there were only a few looks that were worthy of a fashion writeup. Some of our favorite looks came from Rosamund Pike, Barry Keoghan, Jennifer Lawrence, and Hunter Schafer. It’s times like this when we really miss the golden era of E! and Fashion Police with Joan Rivers. And where were all the Red Carpet correspondents? It would be a shame to talk about the Golden Globes without discussing the couple of the moment: Kylie and Timmy. Some people cast doubts on this couple, but we feel they’re genuine and totally smitten with each other. Let’s be real, who wouldn’t swoon from a loving look by Timothée Chalamet? If you’re anything like us, you didn’t want to listen to the first episode of Rachel Goes Rogue. Unfortunately for us and fortunately for you, we cranked that podcast up to 1.5 speed and made it through. This episode of avoidance from Rachel had us so heated. It’s hard to understand the timing of this podcast when it seems like most people have moved on, and we don’t see how sharing new and ever-changing details about her affair with Tom were productive or healing. Our recap starts at (44:14). This was a big week for RHOSLC, so we have to discuss the Monica drama even though we haven’t been regularly recapping. We’re torn about Monica because she was a troll in the past and is clearly calculated, however, she’s been carrying this season on her back. We also quickly run through RHOBH since it was a pretty low-key episode. It’s been really difficult to connect with Crystal over the last couple seasons, but we feel her experiences with an ED and reaction to the Ozempic craze make her unique. Opening up more about those topics would actually give her a real plotline. If you've been missing our Book Club, don’t worry! We’ll be starting that up again after the New Year.

We Spent NYE at Saltburn (Saltburn Review, Gypsy Rose Blanchard, Dr. Death, + Tana Mongeau Drama)

Fri, 05 Jan 2024 09:00:00 GMT

The first episode of 2024 is here! We rang it in the best possible way by finally watching Saltburn and we think it lived up to the hype. While we weren’t as shocked as some people by certain scenes, the movie has still been consuming our thoughts since then. The 2000s nostalgia this movie brings to millennials is like no other, and Jacob Elordi and Barry Keoghan are added bonuses. Does anyone else feel a strange attraction or Barry?? Speaking of, we also talk about award’s season, who’s nominated, and if we’ll be tuning in.

We also gave a quick wrap up of our holidays, gave our two cents about Gypsy Rose’s recent release from prison and social media blowup, and some long-standing Tana Mogeau drama. Since our Bravo shows were on a small break over the holidays, we’re also gearing up for their return this week! If you've been missing our Book Club, don’t worry!

Talking All Things Bravo with the ConnectionQueen (VPR, RHOBH, & The Viall Files)

Fri, 29 Dec 2023 09:00:00 GMT

We’re so excited to round out 2023 with our very first interview! We connected with the ConnectionQueen via TikTok and are happy to finally meet virtually to record an episode. Since she’s based in the LA area, we got the West Coast perspective on some of our favorite Bravo shows. We discuss the Vanderpump trailer and throw around some theories regarding Lala’s now famous comment about Ariana and the possibility of Schwartz and Scheana kissing. When VPR Season 11 starts, we’ll definitely have her back on the chat! RHOBH is also on the agenda and the ConnectionQueen has a lot to say about Annemarie’s conflict with Sutton. The three of us also bond over our mutual distaste for a certain podcast where fact checking is not a priority. *ahem* The Viall Files…

Before the interview, we also reflect on May December again, dig deeper into RHOBH, and plan to watch Saltburn now that it’s on Amazon Prime. If you enjoyed this interview and would like to see more in the future, please let us know! And, if you’ve been missing our Book Club, don’t worry! We’ll be starting that up again after the New Year.

Girl’s Night In - May December Review

Fri, 22 Dec 2023 09:00:00 GMT

Welcome to a holiday edition of Emotional Support Water Bottle! We’re cozied up next to our Christmas tree with some cookies and a cocktail in hand! Since the holidays are a busy time, we decided to record a little early this week and watch a movie we mentioned in a previous episode of the podcast. Yes, there have been some mixed reviews of May December, but we wanted to watch it to judge for ourselves.

For those who don’t know, May December is loosely based on the story of 34-year-old Mary Kay Letourneau’s romantic relationship with her then 12-year-old student, Vili Fualaau. Letourneau was jailed twice for her sexual relationship with Vili, gave birth to their two daughters while in jail, and married Vili after she was released. The movie follows Gracie and Joe (Mary Kay and Vili) and their young adult children as actress Elizabeth (Natalie Portman) prepares for an upcoming movie where she will play Gracie. While observing and getting to know Gracie (Julianne Moore) and Joe (Charles Melton), Elizabeth finds herself getting more and more entranced by the “character” of Gracie. Both Gracie and Joe’s mental instability are also made clear as the film continues, with Joe breaking down and questioning his life/marriage to Gracie. This movie was filled with so much tension, it could be felt through the screen. It’s safe to say that this movie was very thought provoking and left us with more questions than answers. Have you seen May December? If so, let us know what you thought in the comments. We also have a special guest coming up, so mark your calendars for next Friday! Don’t forget to interact with us by answering the Q&A, and leaving reviews on the podcast in general. We love to hear your feedback! So grab your water bottles, and look out for new episodes every Friday!

Countdown to January 30 (VPR Trailer, RHOBH, & RHOSLC + Sydney Sweeney & Glen Powell)

Fri, 15 Dec 2023 14:52:52 GMT

This episode starts out with a bang as we discuss the heavily anticipated season 11 trailer for Vanderpump Rules. This trailer had it all: Lala giving her hot takes, Sandoval screaming on the floor, a Katie and Schwartz love triangle, and of course, Jax Taylor. While we don’t necessarily agree with Lala saying Ariana has been treated like a god, we aren’t super shocked by her opinion. After all, she also had a cheating scandal play out on the show, and she didn’t get the same level of sympathy. One of the most shocking revelations was that Schwarts and Scheanna made out in Vegas. We have so many questions, but wonder if the tea is actually as hot as it seems. With January 30 just over a month away, we’re starting to feel excited for VPR again and can’t wait to recap the show every week!We also discuss our Christmas plans and traditions, Jennifer Lawrence’s (deserved?) nomination for No Hard Feelings, and Sydney Sweeney and Glen Powell’s undeniable chemistry. Sorry, but we don’t care that she has a fiancé or that they’ve said they’re just friends. As Amanda Hirsch pointed out, we’ve seen this story plan out many times before (hello Brad and Angelina!). To wrap up the episode, we recap last week’s episode of RHOBH which was part two of the Weed Dinner Party from Hell. We still can’t figure out Sutton and Kyle’s friendship, and feel like Kyle isn’t saying a lot about her marriage struggled because there are so many unknowns.

Hannah & Ailish Serving Tea (RHOBH, DWTS, & Golden Bachelor Recap + Ryan Murphy & Rachel Goes Rogue)

Fri, 08 Dec 2023 23:20:40 GMT

*Special Note* This episode was a little late due to technical issues. Thank you for your patience!

This week on the pod, we’re fired up about all things pop culture. So much happened this week that we think we created our longest episode yet! We give our take on the trailer for Rachel Goes Rogue and discuss if we’ll be listening. Let’s face it, this story has been told a hundred times already and we’re not sure we care about yet another version of events from Rachel. Hannah is rewatching VPR and thinks Rachel might use this new podcast to throw James or other cast members under the bus for past indiscretions. There was more drama over on the Golden Bachelor. Much to our dismay and surprise, Gerry chose Theresa in the end and left Leslie broken-hearted. We’re 100% Team Leslie and love how she showed Gerry how she felt even when he was being somewhat dismissive. So what do you think? Are Gerry and Theresa genuine or do you think all the recent skeletons coming out of Gerry’s past will affect their relationship? Ailish also spills the tea on some insider information regarding AHS creator Ryan Murphy. We’ve heard rumors and rumblings about him before, but this confirms everything for us!

Another blow to our happiness this week was the fact that neither Ariana nor Jason Mraz won DWTS. Xochitl was super talented, but it always seems like the young ones do really well. We were both really loving Jason Mraz and feel like DWTS has ignited his sex appeal that we’re pretty sure he didn’t have before. Even though the dancers this season were really talented, Ailish felt the finale freestyles were a little lackluster. To round things out, we recapped last week’s episode of RHOBH. This was a reboot of the iconic Dinner Party from Hell, but this time THC was involved (kinda). We don’t think anyone knows what the heck was going on with Denise Richards or why Kyle and Sutton are still rehashing the same fight from three episodes ago. Don’t forget to interact with us by answering the Q&A, and leaving reviews on the podcast in general. We love to hear your feedback! So grab your water bottles, and look out for new episodes every Friday!

Post-Thanksgiving Catch Up (RHOBH & Special Forces Recap + the Bravo Rumor Mill & Spotify Wrapped)

Fri, 01 Dec 2023 09:00:00 GMT

We’re back after a nice Thanksgiving break. Unfortunately, after we recorded our last episode, we discovered Ailish’s car battery had died and we were left alone in a restaurant parking lot to jump it. It was a struggle, but we made it through! ~girl power~ Hannah recaps her trip to Frankenmuth for some Christmas festivities, and Ailish details her family Thanksgiving. Shifting gears, we discuss the recent Bravo rumor that Garrett Morosky from FBoy Island had a threesome with two RHOBH stars. While he didn’t name the housewives involved, we speculate whether it was current or past housewives and narrow down the list of likely suspects. Another topic of discussion recently has been Tom and Arianna’s living situation. Yes, they’re still living together, but does that negate what she previously said about their relationship? We don’t think so! Sure, it’s probably uncomfortable at times and definitely not ideal, but let’s be real, the housing market is tough and it’s not cheap to live in LA.

Sadly, our favorite reality tv show of the moment, Special Forces, has come to an end. We both enjoyed the finale but felt a little let down by the ending. Since we didn’t watch all of last season, we weren’t sure how a winner would be crowned, but we felt this big reveal was a bit anticlimactic. With that being said, we still loved this show and really look forward to next season. We loved seeing friendships form too, like the one between Tyler Cameron, Nick Viall, and JoJo Siwa! On the complete opposite end of the spectrum, we have last week’s episode of RHOBH. Talk about a snoozefest! This was definitely a filler episode, but we did have some interesting conversation stemming from Garcelle comparing her son to a boyfriend. We also talked about our individual and podcast Spotify Wrapped! A huge “thank you” to all of you who listen every week. It really means so much to us, and we can’t wait to see our podcast continue to grow with your support.

Happy Podsgiving! (Brad Pitt Drama, Bad Mormon, Madison Beer, and RHOBH Recap)

Fri, 24 Nov 2023 09:00:00 GMT

We’re on location again, but this time it’s less exciting. Recording in the restaurant for Podsgiving didn’t really pan out, so this episode was recorded in the parking lot. Since Thanksgiving is this week, we’re recording early which means we weren’t able to recap all our shows as usual. Next week will be packed with double recaps, so stay tuned! We were able to discuss last week’s episode of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills where the now iconic, but also annoying, “name ‘em” occurred. We don’t want to throw around allegations, but we have to agree with Kyle about Sutton. Something is definitely going on with her in the wake of Magic Mike and Elevatorgate. Dorit and Kyle also talked about how it’s been a difficult year for both of their marriages, but we feel like Dorit and PK still have the love unlike Kyle and Mauricio. Has Mauricio’s work created more of a divide, or is it more Morgan Wade?

In the wake of Pax Jolie-Pitt’s scathing, leaked Instagram post from 2020, we give our take on Brad and Angie. It’s been quite some time since the alleged plane incident that solidified their separation and eventual divorce, but it’s clear there are still some hard feelings from the kids. This made us think about the personas of celebrities vs what’s actually going on behind closed doors and with their personal relationships. Watching Real Housewives of Salt Lake City inspired Ailish to read Heather Gay’s book Bad Mormon. Hannah previously read this book, so this led to an unplanned, mini Book Club! Hannah also recently read Madison Beer’s book, The Half of It. Madison Beer hasn’t been able to fully break into the industry like she probably wishes, so we brainstorm some ideas on how she can skyrocket her fame.

Deep DWTS Depression (DWTS, RHOBH, Golden Bachelor, & Special Forces Recap)

Fri, 17 Nov 2023 09:00:00 GMT

This episode started on a very sad note as we learned our favorite DWTS contestant, Barry Williams, was voted off the show. After his most amazing dances yet, our beloved Barry somehow earned less viewer votes than Harry Jowsey. We have a sneaking suspicion that the judge’s votes mean nothing and that Barry was robbed! As you may have seen on TikTok, we were also shocked by Gerry’s decision to give a rose to Theresa over Faith. Watching the Women Tell All was heart wrenching because of Faith’s raw emotion and honesty to the fans and Gerry. From here, we feel like Leslie has to be the final choice, but Gerry is throwing us some curveballs! In Beverly Hills, we catch up with the ladies in Las Vegas as they head to Magic Mike for Crystal’s birthday. Unfortunately, Sutton ruined the vibe and Garcelle and Kyle fed into her vie for attention. We can’t really get a good read on Sutton, or how this season is going to go in general.

In addition to the reality recaps, we also talk about how our bodies are doing weird things now that we’re 30, Jack Harlow’s strange charm, and the upcoming holidays. Do you go to fun, holiday parties every year? If so, be sure to let us know in the comments! Don’t forget to interact with us by answering the Q&A, and leaving reviews on the podcast in general.

Book Club (Early Edition): Pretty Boys are Poisonous by Megan Fox (RHOBH, Special Forces, BravoCon, & Golden Bachelor Recap)

Fri, 10 Nov 2023 16:03:58 GMT

November has been a pretty exciting month so far with two Book Club episodes to start things off! In this episode, we discuss Megan Fox’s first published book of poetry, Pretty Boys are Poisonous. This book gets you deep in your feelings and has us desperately trying to decipher every poem. Are more of the poems about Brian Austin Green than she’s letting on? Is her relationship with Machine Gun Kelly healthy, toxic, or a bit of both? Megan does a great job of putting her feelings and experiences to paper, but is still tight-lipped when it comes to dropping names. Overall, we felt this book was one of healing and the poems were beautifully written. In addition to the book, we also discuss how Megan has been treated by the media through the course of her career. Unfortunately, we weren’t able to make it to BravoCon, but we watched enough content over the weekend to feel like we actually did. We give our takes on the Teddi Mellencamp/Vicki Gunvalson feud, Ruth the icon, and Vanderpump Rule reconciliations. Since we didn’t recap the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills last week, we had two episodes to cover in this episode, and we recap Special Forces since it was back on the air this week. The Golden Bachelor is coming to an end, and we also place our bets on who Gerry ends up with (spoiler: we don’t think it’s Theresa).

Channeling Early 2000s Icons (Britney Spears Memoir, Our Halloween Costume Reveal, & Remembering Matthew Perry)

Sat, 04 Nov 2023 02:36:59 GMT

We’ve moved to Fridays! Hopefully, you didn’t miss our announcement and wonder where we were Wednesday morning. Starting this week, we’re coming to you on Friday to help you roll into the weekend! As everyone knows, Britney Spears launched her memoir, The Woman in Me, this past Tuesday. We couldn’t wait to get our hands on it and were ready to discuss all the insights Britney offered. While many of the juicy details were in the media before the book’s release, we feel a certain Kevin Federline era was glossed over. He was one of the main factors that led up to Britney’s breakdown in 2007 because he was continuously keeping their children from her, and yet, there was no mention of his antics in the press this time around. One thing we were disappointed wasn’t detailed more in the book was Britney’s early career. It would have been amazing to hear the ins and outs of the industry at that peak time, but maybe we’ll just have to wait for part 2…

In this episode, you’ll also notice that we’re dressed as the most iconic duo of the early 2000s: Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie. Did you watch The Simple Life, because we couldn’t get enough! We also recap notable celebrity Halloween costumes, the tragic and sudden passing of Friends star Matthew Perry, and the struggles of dating in your 30s. Don’t forget to interact with us by answering the Q&A, and leaving reviews on the podcast in general. We love to hear your feedback! So grab your water bottles, and look out for new episodes every Friday!

Book Club: Hey, Hun by Emily Lynn Paulson + Golden Bachelor, Special Forces, & Emo Night

Wed, 25 Oct 2023 08:00:00 GMT

October is coming to an end which means we’re wrapping things up with another Book Club episode! This month, we read Hey, Hun by Emily Lynn Paulson and we hope you were able to read along with us. We’re fascinated with the Multi Level Marketing (MLM) culture and enjoyed the insight Paulson was able to provide. While there were some areas of the book that seemed a little self-serving, we thought Paulson did a good job of sharing her experience and shedding some light on a shady profession. Hey, Hun got us thinking about people we know who were involved in MLMs, how the industry targets the somewhat vulnerable stay-at-home mom population, and how these types of jobs have evolved over time. Do you have any experience with an MLM? We’d love to hear your take!

When we recorded this episode, we were getting ready to attend an Emo Night and had a little pre-game! This was our first night out together in a long time, and Hannah’s first official night out since having her youngest son. We weren’t sure what the vibe would be, but wanted to have fun regardless! In between shots of tequila, we discussed the feud between Theresa and Kathy on the Golden Bachelor. While this might be an unpopular opinion, we see where Kathy is coming from and don’t really trust Theresa. Kathy definitely should have handled the confrontation a bit differently, but we feel like Theresa gives off pick-me and that she’s playing too coy. Our slight obsession with Special Forces continues and this was the episode everyone was waiting for: the one where Tom gets beat up. We still don’t think Tom is fully understanding or showing remorse for Scandoval and were glad the DSs called him out. Both of us also make racy confessions about some of the challenges the recruits faced in this episode.

Finally, we announce that we’re changing our release date to Fridays starting November 3. Interact with us by answering the Q&A, and leaving reviews on the podcast in general. We love to hear your feedback! So grab your water bottles, and look out for new episodes every Wednesday!

Heather the Compartmentalizing Queen (RHOC, Special Forces, Taylor Swift / Travis Kelce, & Speidi Recap)

Wed, 18 Oct 2023 08:00:00 GMT

Everything is back to normal this week as we record our 35th episode. RHOC comes to an end with Part 2 of the reunion, and to no one’s surprise, Heather still comes out the villain. Despite her clarifications and display of facts, the ladies continue to hold her to a higher standard. Gina may be the only housewife vocally expressing her conflict with returning next season, but we have a feeling Heather is getting ready to make a move. Even though Shannon chose to die on the “I’m not apologizing” hill, we did feel real sympathy for her regarding her relationship with John. It’s clear she’s dealing with a lot, but trying so hard to hide it from the cameras only made the situation worse. In the end, this cast compared themselves to a sisterhood and expressed their love for one another even though their actions this season painted a much different picture.

In this episode, we also discuss our disappointment with this week’s episode of Special Forces, Heather Dubrow’s appearance on The Viall Files, Taylor and Travis’s hand holding, and the sneak preview of House of Kardashian from Speidi’s 16th Minute. Don’t forget to read Hey, Hun by Emily Lynn Paulson along with us this month. We’ve been on the waitlist for this one for months and are really looking forward to unwrapping the world of Multi-Level Marketing schemes. We’ll be reviewing Hey Hun next week, so be sure to be finished by then. Interact with us by answering the Q&A, and leaving reviews on the podcast in general. We love to hear your feedback! So grab your water bottles, and look out for new episodes every Wednesday!

ANTM: The Original Special Forces (RHOC, Special Forces, and Taylor Swift / Travis Kelce Recap)

Thu, 12 Oct 2023 03:56:00 GMT

We had some technical difficulties this week, but are forging through! We start off our conversation by discussing the looping holiday season. The nostalgia and idea of family gatherings are great, but in reality, they end up causing more stress than they should. Does everyone have this problem? Be sure to comment and let us know we’re not alone! Three people went home on Special Forces this week, but Tom Sandoval is standing strong. With the vertical challenge in this episode, we couldn’t help but compare Special Forces with America’s Next Top Model. We also give a big shout out to Nick Viall for giving us all the inside scoop on his podcast, The Viall Files. We’re a little embarrassed to admit how much we’re enjoying this show, and discuss how we think we’d fare in the challenges so far. Surprisingly, we haven’t talked about the hottest new couple of the fall, Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce! Ailish shares her Kelce brothers connection, and Hannah remembers her Amazon Prime hookup so we can watch their documentary.

We also dive into Part 1 of the RHOC reunion. This episode brought a lot of the same: Tamra and Shannon not taking accountability for their behavior, Heather being blamed for everything, and Jenn having to defend her relationship with Ryan. Hopefully, we get more resolution in Part 2, but we’re not holding our breath! All the talk about Life 360 and kids and social media on this episode got us thinking about what the future would be like for the younger generations. Hannah shared her thoughts on the idea of tracking her kids or allowing them to have social media when they’re older. With how fast things are changing, it’s really difficult to know how things will be 10 years from now. What will the new technology be? Don’t forget to read Hey, Hun by Emily Lynn Paulson along with us this month.

Tom Sandoval’s Redemption? (RHOC, DWTS, Special Forces, & Golden Bachelor Recap)

Thu, 05 Oct 2023 00:13:23 GMT

We have a lot of television to discuss this week, so settle in! We start this episode by recapping Dancing with the Stars. It’s been a while since either of us have watched this show, and some things have definitely changed. The main reason we’re tuning in, of course, is to support our VPR angel, Arianna Madix. She exceeded expectations and came out on the dancefloor in a modified version of her iconic revenge dress. Special Forces was a surprise for us since it started out kind of cheesy. There wasn’t much of Tom Sandoval this episode, but Hannah has some thoughts and a controversial confession to make. We also discuss Tara Reid and how unkind Hollywood has been to her over her career. Stay strong, Tara! Ailish didn’t get a chance to watch the Golden Bachelor, but Hannah shares a positive review. We wonder how this season will be different since the age demographic is more mature. Will there still be drunken fights? Fantasy Suites? Ruthless jealousy? To wrap up the reality tv talk, we dive into the satisfying finale of RHOC. Tamra finally gets what’s coming to her and Heather gets a little bit of revenge in the most classy way possible. We also announce our book club book for the month of October. If you’ve been enjoying this series, be sure to read along with up to Hey, Hun by Emily Lynn Paulson. We’ve been on the waitlist for this one for months and are really looking forward to unwrapping the world of Multi-Level Marketing schemes.

Book Club: Daddy Diaries by Andy Cohen + RHOC & Call Her Daddy/Alix Earle

Wed, 27 Sep 2023 08:00:00 GMT

Another month in the books for our Book Club! For the month of September, we’ve been reading Daddy Diaries by Andy Cohen. While this book wasn’t one that we felt warranted a lot of analysis, we both still really enjoyed it. It was nice to read something a little more lighthearted after last month! (If you listened to the Mean Baby episode, you know what we mean.) This book gave us a fun and honest look into a year in the life of Andy Cohen and we really appreciated his transparency and vulnerability. He told of his year in a way that kept you engaged and laughing during one entry, and nodding your head in agreement and solidarity the next. If you’re a Bravoholic like us, you’ll definitely enjoy this one!

We also talked about the collab between Alex Cooper/Call Her Daddy and Alix Earle. We listened to both podcasts and tried not to let our jealousy get the better of us. Alex Cooper: can we please be a part of Unwell too?? We liked hearing a softer, more vulnerable side to Alix Earle in the Call Her Daddy episode, but don’t think we’re the target audience for Hot Mess. What are your thoughts of these two media forces teaming up? Speaking of forces, we had to circle back to Scientology in the wake of the Danny Masterson aftermath. We contemplate Scientology’s seeming obsession with celebrities and just how many of the wild Hollywood rumors are actually true. To wrap things up, we recap the last two episodes of RHOC. Tamra is on a rampage and needs to be stopped! We don’t know how Heather made it through the season and were again disappointed by the behavior of Emily and Gina. Don’t forget to interact with us by answering the Q&A, and leaving reviews on the podcast in general. We love to hear your feedback!

Britney, Lady Gaga, & *NSYNC: Our Top 10 Influential Albums of the 2000s

Wed, 20 Sep 2023 08:00:00 GMT

Since Ailish is away this week, we decided to do something different. Come along with us as we transport ourselves back to the 2000s and rank the albums that impacted us during our most impressionable years. Admittedly, we both had a little bit of a tough time choosing just 10! There were a few obvious choices, but a couple curveballs were thrown in the mix as well. Which album will be ranked #1 and how similar is our taste in music? Listen to this episode to find out, and listen to our playlist of albums on Spotify.

Thinking of the 2000s makes us nostalgic for a simpler time! While ranking our albums, we also talk about how different the music industry was at that time and how the process of releasing/making music has changed since then. We also give our thoughts on the debut of Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet. We don’t even care if it’s a PR stunt, we’re here for it!

Parasocial Relationships Pt. 2 - Joe Jonas & Sophie Turner, Ashton Kutcher & Mila Kunis, and Jimmy Fallon

Wed, 13 Sep 2023 08:00:00 GMT

For this episode, we pick up where we left off last week with the discussion around parasocial relationships. People have had a lot to say about Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner’s pending divorce, but what’s the truth? Both parties have stayed silent, apart from their Instagram statement, up until Joe’s recent comment during a concert. In legal news, Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis are under fire after their character letter for Danny Masterson was leaked. Danny Masterson was convicted to 30 years in prison for two counts of rape, and Kutcher and Kunis’s letter praises Masterson as a “role model” and a man of “exceptional character”. We discuss how someone can be a great person, but still do some terrible things, and how awkward a position Kutcher and Kunis were put in. Finally, we touch on the allegations against Jimmy Fallon. Being in a high pressure environment is stressful for everyone involved, but when do lines get crossed and when is an apology enough?

As usual, we also recap RHOC and remember the tragedy that is 9/11 as we mark the 22nd anniversary. We discuss our memories of that day, along with some true crime/conspiracy theories surrounding the attack. Don’t forget to read Daddy Diaries by Any Cohen with us this month!

Parasocial Relationships - From Gaylor to Larry, and All the Blind Items In Between

Wed, 06 Sep 2023 08:00:00 GMT

On the podcast this week, we talk about the intense fascination some people have with celebrities, otherwise known as, parasocial relationships. While there are many examples of this we didn’t discuss in this episode, one of the main ones revolves around celebrity relationships and their sexuality. We discuss the strong fandom behind Gaylor (Taylor Swift being secretly gay) and Larry (the secret romance between One Directioners, Harry Style and Louis Tomlinson). When a person’s sexuality is something that’s highly respected in the 2023, why do we feel it’s appropriate to make assumptions about famous people we have no personal connection to? We also talk about blind items and how uncomfortable they can be. Can anyone submit a baseless blind item just to stir things up? When comparing celebrity blind items to ”real world” rumors we’ve had spread about us, we agree it’s a bad feeling. Celebs are just like us: they have feelings!

Ailish also gives an update on applying for The Bachelor, and Hannah dishes on a wedding she attended over the weekend. Of course, we also touch on the breaking news about Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner! Turns out, the rumors were true and they’re headed for a divorce.

Book Club: Mean Baby by Selma Blair

Wed, 30 Aug 2023 08:00:00 GMT

This week, we’re back for another Book Club. For the month of August, we read Mean Baby by Selma Blair and there are definitely some triggers that we were not given warnings for. Disclaimer: we weren’t huge fans of this one. The timeline was all over the place which made it extremely difficult to follow, and there was a lot of destructive behavior that never really got corrected. There was positive point in the way she was honest about some of her MS journey and the challenges that she continues to endure because of the disease. Overall, we really wouldn’t recommend this one, it was a struggle to get through on multiple levels. We wish Selma well and hope she has the support she needs. On a different note, Ailish contemplates applying to be on the Bachelor and Hannah recounts a relatable way of understanding Scandoval which she found in Instagram comments. For the month of September, we have chosen a (hopefully) lighthearted read by Andy Cohen. Read along with us to the Daddy Diaries!

We’re on location this week! Our new studio may look official, but we’re actually just at our local library. Fake it ‘til we make it right? Our episodes have been running a little long lately, so we reeled it in for this one. The main focus of this week is the trio of episodes from the #1 podcast worldwide. You guessed it: Reality Reckoning with Bethany Frankle and Rachel Leviss. Even if you didn’t listen or know nothing about why Rachel is in the news, our overall discussion is something you can still relate to or enjoy. In addition to the details in the bombshell interview, we talk about mental health, taking accountability, fair compensation, and potential liabilities for networks. If you have anything to add to the conversation, we’d love to hear your thoughts! Don’t forget to join our August book club!

(Tamra) Judge, Jury, and Clergy

Wed, 16 Aug 2023 08:00:00 GMT

This week on the podcast, we talk about the dark side of media and religion. Don’t worry, we also get into lighter topics like the possibility of a reality star strike and recap RHOC to balance things out! What is your take on payments to reality stars? We’re very torn on the topic, per usual. Oops…she did it again! Yep, that’s right, more dancing videos from Ms. Spears. Well, at least she looks great. On a completely different note, we discuss the complexities of organized religion, forgiveness, and grieving on social media. We’d love to hear your feedback and experiences with these topics, so feel free to DM us or comment.

Man! I Feel Like A Woman, Again!

Wed, 09 Aug 2023 08:00:00 GMT

Ailish is back from vacation, so we have a lot of catching up to do! We start by discussing all the latest reality show and pop culture drama, but the conversation takes a feminist turn? After our Barbie Movie enlightenment, we’ve been fully embracing our feminine sides like never before and we’re tired of tying ourselves into knots so people will like us (we felt that, America Ferrera.) Additionally, Hannah dishes about our brush with Jersey Shore fame, we dive deeper into the Ariana Grande drama after casually mentioning it last episode, and we break the news about Megan Fox’s book of poetry dropping this fall. For the month of August, we are reading Mean Baby by Selma Blair, so be sure to check that out as well.

Fall Out Barbie Girls

Wed, 02 Aug 2023 08:00:00 GMT

This week’s episode is a little different since we’re doing it vlog-style. Please excuse the sometimes unclear audio! We’re figuring things out and are looking into purchasing some new equipment to make these higher quality for our listeners. Since Ailish is on vacation, we’re using this episode to recap the Fall Out Boy concert and Barbie movie. They are on two very opposite ends of the spectrum, but they’re a pretty good representation of us. The Fall Out Boy concert was more than we ever could have imagined and it definitely fulfilled our teenage dreams. We loved every second and decided next time, we’re heading to the floor to hopefully feel the sweat and see the angelic face of Pete Wentz up close. Switching gears to the Barbie movie: if you saw it, was it what you expected? We tried not to look at a lot of previews and teasers, so we went in pretty blind and were surprised by the social commentary. Since Greta Gerwig directed, we probably should have seen this coming!

Book Club: Greenlights by Matthew McConaughey

Wed, 26 Jul 2023 08:00:00 GMT

To wrap up July, we have our Book Club episode. Overall, we can both say that Greenlights by Matthew McConaughey was a very entertaining listen. We definitely do not do his storytelling justice in this episode and please don’t judge us for our horrific Texas accents. This is one we would absolutely recommend. Before our book review, we reminisced about the horrors of vintage America’s Next Top Model, and the modern-day horrors of Dave Portnoy. We also do a live taste test of some Deux cookies that Ailish slightly underbaked. Still good though! Be sure to use our promo code eswbpod at checkout for 10% off your order.

Summer’s Latest Trend: Diagnosing Yourself

Wed, 19 Jul 2023 08:00:00 GMT

This week, we talk about the destigmatization of mental health. We’ve come a long way regarding this topic, but is it just a trend? Should everything be discussed publicly and is TikTok the place to look for a diagnosis? We’ve noticed some fellow podcasters who believe that they can be therapists because they give good advice. Is that really the same thing? (Nick Viall, we’re talking to you.) As usual, we recapped RHOC and also discussed the highly anticipated Call Her Daddy with Zayn Malik. Life update: we’re moving to Pennsylvania! Don’t forget to read Greenlights by Matthew McConaughey for our July Book Club.

Kinda Keeping with the Kardashians

Wed, 12 Jul 2023 08:00:00 GMT

On the podcast this week, we step outside the Bravo universe and dig into The Kardashians on Hulu.

Amateur Ghost Hunters

Wed, 05 Jul 2023 08:00:00 GMT

Book Club: Tell Me Everything by Minka Kelly

Wed, 28 Jun 2023 08:00:00 GMT

June is nearly over and you know what that means: Book Club time! Tell Me Everything by Minka Kelly was interesting to say the least. We don’t think we were told everything like the title suggested and we felt like there were a lot of unprocessed feelings (yikes). If you have unresolved childhood trauma, do not read this book. Aside from the book review, we also caught up on Real Housewives of Orange County and reviewed No Hard Feelings which we saw over the weekend.

This week, Hannah dishes on her Eras Tour experience. Did she trade bracelets? What did it feel like to be breathing the same air as Taylor?

Then, we basically just talked about VPR and if “Rachel” is secretly a robot.

Book Club: Troublemaker by Leah Remini

Wed, 31 May 2023 08:00:48 GMT

This week, we discuss a very interesting read and we hope you were able to read with us! Scientology is such a taboo topic and Leah Remini’s book, Troublemaker, really gives us an inside look at that secretive belief system. We’ve been curious about this since we discussed Tom Cruise a few episodes ago, and this made us want to dig into this “religion” even more. If you read Troublemaker this month, or read it before, what are your thoughts? We also talk about how awkward it can be to quit a job, the controversy surrounding the filming of The Last of Us, and wonder if Ailish is being too accommodating when it comes to men.

We Turned 30 and Our Lives Didn't End

Wed, 24 May 2023 08:00:48 GMT

This week on the podcast, we discuss entering a new decade of life. Yes, we know turning 30 isn’t the end of the world, but didn’t it always seem like it would be?? Since we’re both at different stages of life, we each have a slightly different outlook on meeting this milestone. How did you handle turning 30? Honestly, it’s not as traumatic as we thought it would be. We also reminisce about prom and decide that we’re going to enter our Dululu Lemon phase. Fingers crossed that this outlook bodes well for us. Next week, we’ll be recapping and discussing Troublemaker by Leah Remini, and are excited for you to join in the conversation!

On the podcast this week, we dig into a brief history of reality tv shows. Let’s be honest, reality tv peaked in the early 2000s. The Bachelor franchise has evolved so much since its inception, and who can forget the absolute classic that helped make us who we are today, The Simple Life. There are so many we didn't even mention. We also discuss Gisele Bunchen’s odd eating habits and the idea of a reality show of her and Tom’s life pre-divorce…Zzzzzzz.

This week, we talk about relationships with alcohol, drinking culture, and taking accountability for actions while under the influence. What can we say, Josh Peck kind of inspired us! We also talk about how checking into rehab and going to therapy won’t fix all your problems, and the difference between being an alcoholic and having an unhealthy relationship with alcohol.
