6h ago1:48:05

1:48:05

The Summer of Greer has one more episode before we move onto the First Day of School of Greer. Is it another installment in a sprawling sci-fi franchise? Yes. Is JG a mom? Yes. Does she, as we hoped, get the best role we're see all summer? What I can tell you is that "A Fish Called Selma" is the nineteenth episode of the decent season of The Simpso…

29: Maggie (Ant-Man) 1:55:52

26d ago1:55:52

1:55:52

The Summer of Greer marches on, hurrah hurrah! Another mid-2010s big budget action movie, another underwritten mom role for Judy Greer. Reg and Patrick have the dubious honor of digging into the MCU with 2015's Ant-Man. Gabe Powers from Genre Grinder makes a special appearance as the wise comic book expert who provides the necessary exposition for …

28: Karen (Jurassic World) 2:01:10

2M ago2:01:10

2:01:10

Fun fact: this is the third movie we have covered so far where Judy Greer plays a Karen. Not a Karen-Karen, just a mom named Karen. Well, she might be a Karen-Karen; we don't get enough information about her, for all we know there's a version of the script out there where she's writing a hate-filled screed on Facebook about transgender GMO dinosaur…

27: Jenny (Tomorrowland) 1:49:12

2M ago1:49:12

1:49:12

The year was 2015, and Judy Greer's film career saw her journeying through the Land of Big-Budget Franchise Movies. Reg and Patrick are setting the air conditioner on high and expectations on low for a mini-series we are calling The Summer of Greer. Brad Bird's theme-park-turned-two-hour-family-friendly-action film Tomorrowland taught that scientif…

1:07:12

We did it again! But... wait. Did we? What if we didn't? What if we did something else? What if we did something so long ago that, sitting here today, I can't even remember the names of one of the things, but we pretended like it was just done yesterday? And what if Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde was set in a dystopian future and the main character was a …

26: Joyce (The 15:17 to Paris) 2:05:31

4M ago2:05:31

2:05:31

Choo-choo movie nerds, The 15:17 to Paris is leaving the station! Legit question for listening Americans: how do Reg and Patrick abide the 88-94 year old director who fills their TV with 94 minutes of military propaganda while their small audience awaits their opinions? Can a mostly forgotten Trump-era Clint Eastwood movie share anything in common …

25: Ginger (Barry Munday) 1:55:58

4M ago1:55:58

1:55:58

Our wife told us not to record this podcast. But Reg and Patrick are back to offend everyone and ask the tough questions about BARRY MUNDAY, a typical Boy-Loses-Testicles-and-Forgets-He-Met-Girl comedy, such as: Has there ever been an actually funny scene set at a support group? Will 96 Greers become a Patrick Wilson fancast? Can one third of the s…

24: Soda the Whale (My Father's Dragon) 1:46:09

5M ago1:46:09

1:46:09

In February, we asked a deeply inane question: What Do Women Want? In March, we asked an even more inane question: What Do Children Want? Two dozen episodes into Judy Greer's filmography, and we have yet to cover a work aimed specifically at children (unless you count Rusty's Learning to Listen: Part 8). As a pair of childless film snobs who find t…

23: Donna (Men, Women, and Children) 1:59:36

6M ago1:59:36

1:59:36

STOP! Are you aware that you are currently on the Internet? When's the last time you even looked up from that screen? Are you even aware what's happening to The Children? Or maybe you yourself are so enthralled by this terrible technology that you are already lost in the dark labyrinth of mild BDSM fantasies, horny housewives in baggy sweaters, pho…

22: Erin (What Women Want) 1:40:30

7M ago1:40:30

1:40:30

Join Reg and Patrick as they live, laugh, and love through the Nancy Meyers written and directed rom-com What Women Want. What do women want: a living wage, professional relationships built on mutual respect, and bodily autonomy? Maybe, but have you considered: Mel Gibson? Reg and Patrick have, because he's the protagonist of this movie! They didn'…

21: Ramona (Lemon) 1:46:57

7M ago1:46:57

1:46:57

Prepare your earholes, because 96 Greers is coming in hot with a Lemon party. Reg and Patrick bare it all: their feelings on 2017 dark comedy Lemon, director Janicza Bravo's other work (including 2020 Twitter-plotted sensation Zola), and the use of unlikable characters and cringey situations to create comedy. After exploring multiple positions, the…

20: Kitty (The Village) 1:56:21

8M ago1:56:21

1:56:21

Well met, gentle friends, and harken to another discourse with Reg and Patrick, spirited to you through your enchanted box of wonders! On this fine day, we turn our thoughts to a fanciful tale spun by M. Night Shyamalan, entitled The Village. If you know not wherefore this missive is written in such a manner, perchance you would benefit greatly fro…

19: Linda (Jeff Who Lives at Home) 1:29:18

9M ago1:29:18

1:29:18

Holy sibling rivalry Batman, it's another mumblecore episode! Well, it's a Duplass Brothers episode. Perhaps those two descriptors aren't quite as interchangeable as Patrick and Reg had assumed. Jeff Who Lives at Home has us pondering the physics of sinking cars, business communication trends of 2010, and what Ed Helms is like when he goes full Hol…

18: Esther (The Hebrew Hammer) 1:36:33

9M ago1:36:33

1:36:33

This episode is being published a little late, but don't worry, we weren't giving you the Shaft. More recent roles have seen the ever-Super Fly Judy Greer playing a White Mama, but on this episode we go back to 2003's action comedy The Hebrew Hammer, a blaxploitation homage with a Jewish twist. Pour yourself a cup of Coffy and listen to Patrick and…

17:Janice (Eric LaRue) 2:05:29

10M ago2:05:29

2:05:29

Reg and Patrick go on an adventure to the Chicago International Film Festival to see the premiere of Eric LaRue, the directorial debut of Judy Greer's Pottersville co-star Michael Shannon and focuses on the emotional aftermath for parents whose children were involved in a school shooting. We talk about our expectations going in and then time warp t…

16: Karen (Halloween) 1:51:05

11M ago1:51:05

1:51:05

It's damn near impossible to be a prolific Hollywood actor in the 21st century without being in a franchise or two. Judy Greer plays Laurie Strode's daughter Karen in David Gordon Green's Halloween, a sequel to John Carpenter's Halloween. Reg and Patrick talk about the inevitable teenage drama plot lines in slasher movies, stan Lumpy, and attempt t…

15: Heather (Elizabethtown) 1:54:41

11M ago1:54:41

1:54:41

Get ready for an unhinged episode of 96 Greers that delves into the bewildering world of Elizabethtown, the film that inspired the phrase "manic pixie dream girl." Reg is hopped up on goofballs! Patrick is calling out other film podcasts by name! Porn keyword search jokes! Experiments on children without institutional review board approval! Rate, r…

14: Olivia (Grandma) 1:58:41

12M ago1:58:41

1:58:41

On this PODCAST, we BELIEVE: - abortions in movies are better without conflict - gay cowboys are real - Alan Alda and Alan Arkin should just have the same name, sheesh - Jane Campion's 2021 Western drama The Power of the Dog and Laurie Anderson's 2015 cinematic meditation on grief Heart of a Dog should just have the same name, sheesh We also find t…

13: Sophie (Aporia) 1:36:59

1y ago1:36:59

1:36:59

Spoiler Alert! We got a sneak preview of Aporia and we do discuss the entire plot of the movie. If you don't want spoilers for the third act, stop listening before 44:00. Temps are high, sfx are low, and sci is fi when Reg and Patrick discuss Aporia, an empathetic and intellectual timeline-bender in which Judy Greer heads up an excellent cast. Othe…

12: Karen (The Key Man) 1:29:29

1y ago1:29:29

1:29:29

Dig it: 70's Greer! That's... all that Reg had prepared coming into this episode. 2011 indie crime film The Key Man doesn't have a lot going for it, but it does have Judy Greer. Our intrepid Greer fans discuss queer-coded villains, what makes a bad movie bad, the screenwriter's favorite poem, and more!…

11: Judy Greer Live! 50:42

1y ago50:42

50:42

For that all-important eleventh episode, Reg and Patrick do something a little different, a little special. With Judy Greer starring in a world premiere play less than an hour's journey from 96 Greers headquarters, there was no excuse not to throw Reg's carefully planned episode schedule out the window and focus on Kate Arrington's play Another Mar…

10: Alice (Adaptation.) 2:10:33

1y ago2:10:33

2:10:33

IT is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single podcast in possession of a cinematic theme must be in want of a Nicolas Cage episode. And Adaptation gives you two Cages for the price of one! Two elder millennial film snobs return to this early-oughts Charlie Kaufman metafilm for the first time in years and go way over time talking other movie…

09: Shannon (Addicted to Fresno) 1:35:53

1+ y ago1:35:53

1:35:53

In 1999, beloved actress Natasha Lyonne teamed up with director Jamie Babbitt to make the queer cult classic But I'm a Cheerleader. In 2015, Lyonne and Babbitt teamed up again for the indie caper Addicted to Fresno, bringing along with them Judy Greer. And a rockabilly pet cemetery. And a bin full of jiggly purple dildos. Reg and Patrick discuss th…

1:00:18

Before Guardians of the Galaxy... before the Office... James Gunn and Jenna Fischer teamed up for a no-budget comedy that satirizes celebrity charity endeavors in an #epic edgy comedy style that only the mid-00's could bring you. It may shock you to learn that James Gunn isn't the only JG in the cast!…

07: Yuki (The Cat Returns) 1:26:33

1+ y ago1:26:33

1:26:33

Judy Greer meets Totoro! Okay, not exactly, but she was part of the English dub cast of Studio Ghibli's The Cat Returns, a fantasy spin-off of their 90s slice of life film Whisper of the Heart. Reg and Patrick talk about fatphobia on film, get a little Jungian, and create fursonas. Referenced in this episode: Sarah Kate Istra Winter's Girls Undergr…

06: Judy (In Memory of My Father) 1:12:46

1+ y ago1:12:46

1:12:46

Not quite mumblecore, not quite Dogme 95, In Memory of My Father definitely has Judy Greer in the cast. Reg and Patrick bravely soldier forth in their completionist goal with this indie dramedy about a film producer's family reacting-- or not-- to his death.

The Wedding Planner is the genesis of Judy Greer as America's Best Friend. Who else could help foster a love connection between Jennifer Lopez and Matthew McConaughey?

1:31:18

In the nadir of winter, Reg and Patrick take a 115 minute trip to a certain archipelago with The Descendants, a 2011 dramedy that got a lot of Oscar buzz and a lot of positive critical reactions for Judy Greer. Find out if our intrepid hosts agree with the people who are paid a lot of money to judge this kind of thing. Follow the podcast on Mastodo…

1:17:28

Patrick and Reg explore the brave new frontiers (kind of) with turn of the century sci-fi comedy What Planet Are You From?, directed by the legendary Mike Nichols, starring Gary Shandling and featuring a JG powerhouse trifecta: John Goodman, Janeane Garofalo and... you know who. We had the professional integrity to record on an alien spacecraft, so…

1+ y ago51:38

51:38

Patrick & Reg kick off the podcast with the 2017 oddity Pottersville. You know, the one where Michael Shannon tries to pull off a Bigfoot hoax, Judy Greer has a crush on him for some reason, and Christina Hendricks is a furry? Referenced in the Episode: Furries in the Media: PottersvilleBy 96 Greers
