Send us a Text Message. So it takes us about 42 minutes to actually review episode 3 of The Last of Us because we go off on sooooooooooooo many tangents (love triangles, hot guys, wedding planning, age gaps, spoilers about old shows like QAF, Ugly Betty, etc.) Why this episode though? Because "go take a shower, Bill" is iconic, and we love Murray (…

Send us a Text Message. Your eyes do not deceive you; we recorded a random reaction episode to wtFOCK's season 3, episode 3 because why not? We make the rules here.

Send us a Text Message. You know it's always a grand time when Rachel comes on! There is A LOT to discuss with these two episodes that really should be Queen Amira's. Alas, they're not and we're confronted with the Winterberg breakup that we don't quite see eye-to-eye on. But on the other hand, we love Hanna and Jonas's reunion! True to our brand, …

Send us a Text Message. Here we are at the end of Amira's (too short) season! German expert Andy is back to help us dissect everything in episodes 6-7 of DRUCK's Season 4.

Send us a Text Message. So it's been 84 years since we last posted and even this episode was recorded waaaaaaaaaay back in mid-July.

Send us a Text Message. It's the episode no one asked for, but we're releasing early! We've been upfront from the start about how we go off on tangents, so this special podcast episode really highlights all the random stuff we talk about. From who should replace Armie Hammer in the Call Me By Your Name sequel to One Direction to how many plants Ben…

Send us a Text Message. We've reached the end of OG SKAM, Alt Er Lovers! It's quite the emotional episode for us, and we're reminded of how cheated we feel of a Vilde season. True to form, we praise King Eskild and Queen Sana, there's some William criticism, and we adore Evak. It's our longest episode yet, so brace yourselves as we recap and review…

Send us a Text Message. Life is smiling and we're smiling because this is one of the best episodes ever! Many great conversations are had and the Girl Squad is officially reassembled.

Send us a Text Message. Y'all, we're conflicted with this episode, especially Sana and Isak's bench conversation. There are gems, but there are mostly problematic statements. Sana's revenge plot is pulling everyone else down, and she herself even cries, which breaks our heart. Our recap and discussion also has way too many tangents, so we apologize…

Send us a Text Message. It's the first time we've seen this episode! How many carrots can you count in this episode? Probably the same number as Dark Sana looks. We have mixed episode reviews because of some "convenient" things that happen in this episode, but that's more on the writing/cheap plot devices. The two of us also disagree on Sana's deci…

Send us a Text Message. Okay, the last few minutes of this episode? We cannot. Nope, we can't. It's all too much for Sana to handle (Julie Andem is a sadist). One of us is wary of Sara & her eyebrows from the start and the other is naive ;) Elias is a supportive brother, but that one scene is enough to make Ben question if there's truly an MVP in t…

Send us a Text Message. Halla, peeps! This might be our favorite episode of the season because of Yousana's chemistry. If we weren't Yousana shippers before, then we're all on board here. That basketball scene and their deep conversation really spotlights their connection and ability to understand one another. Yes, we get some insight on what happe…

Send us a Text Message. Truly, the only important scene that needs to live rent free in our minds is the carrot scene. Yousef, what are you doing to us? We have some unpopular opinions about Sana, but we love her all around. There's talk about the end scene's goopery, some looming drama for Evak, and oh yeah, Ben's the one not feeling well this epi…

Send us a Text Message. For an 18-minute episode, there's so much to unpack! We fall more in love with Yousef with his cute dance to The Weeknd and support for Sana. Evak provides us with more cute moments and we're eating it up. Oh, there's a battle for the russ bus between the Girl Squad vs FWA Pepsi Max. Find out our thoughts in this week's reca…

Send us a Text Message. It's so bittersweet reaching Sana's season because it's the final one! This premiere episode has it all and we are LOVING it. Yes, we never finished this season, but you'll get our hot takes midway. That aside, in this podcast episode, we discuss Queen Sana and the conflicts to come, seeing the Girl Squad together, our love …

Send us a Text Message. How can we say goodbye to this extraordinary season, this masterpiece of television? Somehow we do, but not without heaps of praise and reverence. We're supposed to choose one top thing per category, but someone's a cheater... And yes, Ben's audio sounds iffy because he's not in LA. But you do get a guest appearance by Jason…
