This Is Woman's Work with Nicole Kalil

2 hours ago2h ago

Weekly+

Together, we're redefining what it means, looks and feels like, to be doing "woman's work" in the world today. With confidence and the occasional rant. From boardrooms to studios, kitchens to coding dens, we explore the multifaceted experiences of today's woman, confirming that the new definition of "woman's work" is whatever feels authentic, true, and right for you. We're shedding expectations, setting aside the "shoulds", giving our finger to the "supposed tos". We're torching the old playbook and writing our own rules. Who runs the world? You decide.

Kevin and Chris dive headlong into 1995's smash family hit Casper, which the latter enjoyed reasonably well, and the former seemed ready to claw out his eyes... or those of everyone around him.

With a new live-action remake hitting theaters (stop us if you've heard that one before), we dive into the 1937 classic Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.

In honor of the recently, shockingly departed Michelle Trachtenberg, returning guest Jessica brings the film adaptation of Harriet the Spy, a childhood obsession which led to her own illegal, unethical actions. Was it because of a lack of clear message that there was anything wrong with them as long as you don't get caught?

Not as well-known as the holiday fare and no Vince Guaraldi songs but this Peanuts movie has some toe-tapping, melancholy-inducing tunes of its own. Sometimes kids, adults, and even Snoopy himself can need a good cry!…

1:25:59

Imagine this: you buy a house, and it's a ridiculous steal, at just $200k for like a 15-bedroom mansion! The catch: it's really run down, and you'll have to tap your monied friends and professional contacts for loans to fix it up. And so you do, and you hire some contractors who get it all ship-shape, and now you have a million-dollar home. Sounds like a living nightmare, right? So, we are apparently meant to believe, is the case for Tom Hanks and Shelley Long in The Money Pit, foolishly brought forward by Chris as part of his "home sick from school Comedy Central daytime classics" collection.…

This time, Chris offers up a twofer of animated Halloween specials, the latter a towering classic of the genre, the former an oft-forgotten footnote to its Christmas counterpart: Halloween is Grinch Night, and It's The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown. Suffice to say the broad approach to the Halloween cartoon doesn't get much further apart than these two, but who cares when the weather's so cozy*? *It's actually miserably hot at Now We Know studios at time of recording, so we will enjoy our hot spiced cider vicariously through you tonight.…

PROGRAMMING NOTE: Want to choose what we cover for our next Patreon episode? Check out our listener poll on Twitter or Instagram , @nowweknowpod. Although Chris is technically the host of this episode, both he and Kevin are about as diehard fans of this flick as one can be — it's Disney's Robin Hood, released in 1973 to muted/mostly negative reaction, now an oft-cited source of sexual awakening for fans of roguelike foxes. With excellent voice acting, charming set pieces, fantastic tunes, and yes, some admittedly corner-cutting animation, could this be the definitive Robin Hood adaptation?…

To ring in a new year, Chris finally uncorks an episode he's had in his back pocket since, well, roundabouts Christmas of 1997 — Titanic: A New Musical (now called Titanic: The Musical, as it is no longer in any way new). Debuting on Broadway the very same year as James Cameron's epic movie, although actually releasing several months earlier, it took a ton of rehearsals, a lot of money, some complicated hydraulics, and a public assist from Rosie O'Donnell to keep this show from sinking. (Note: A new production of the show is now available to stream on BroadwayHD, which is how we watched it.
