"That's not a knife. That's a knife."
The only way I will ever enjoy Australia. And also, I'm a Walter fan for life.

"Roger that Burt, and congratulations. Be advised, however, that there are two more, repeat, two more motherhumpers."
In which I cut myself off after talking for 45 minutes about this solid horror comedy from 1990. Easily in my top 10 favorite movies of all time. It's an interesting list...

A nostalgic favorite. A family-friendly film. An under appreciated 90s film. And a Disney classic. Today we're talking about The Rocketeer.

You can love a movie and think it's stupid - and other conversations about this 1985 gem starring Tim Curry and some other people but it doesn't really matter because...Tim. Curry.

Another 1985 and unsurprisingly it stars some Muppet friends from Sesame Street. It's a sweet nostalgic favorite that shows the beauty of diversity, found families, and friendship...with some pretty awesome songs thrown in for good measure.

It's about time. Hard to believe I'm 175 episodes in and just now talking about this rewatchable gem. And it's not JUST because of Heath Ledger. I wax nostalgic for a bit too long in the episode, but I just couldn't help it. "It's a lance! Hello!"

Jessica and Watson - a.k.a. The Weirdos - are back on the pod for a fun conversation about romantic comedies. We argue the definition, discuss the problematic nature of most, and rank our favorites in this fun Valentine's inspired episode!

"Red rover red rover, send ART right over."
In today's conversation we discuss the 1989 dark comedy The 'Burbs starring Tom Hanks in his most Tom Hankiest and the joy that was a young Corey Feldman.

The Weirdos are on the pod today to talk books we wish we could read again for the first time. It's a little more nuanced than we expected...we also had some detours into Twilight and Harry Potter as a group of librarians will naturally do.

What a wild movie to start the year out with! It has aliens. Dennis Quaid. A nonsensical mining plot. Death by meteors. And a LOT of movie stills with the two main characters just staring at each other. A few weeks ago, someone told me I have questionable taste in movies. I agree...without shame. See exhibit ...
We're back from a short holiday break with a fun recap of some of my favorite pop culture binges / reads / listens of 2023. There's also a short conversation about my "not" resolutions for the new year, plans for the future, and about my inability to do multiple things at one time...successfully at least.

I'm not entirely sure how we've made it through this many episodes without talking about Marvel, but here we are...it's time. And really the Weirdos only stopped by to talk Marvel so that we could talk about Loki. Because Tom Hiddleston forever.

"There are three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who has the same first name as a city; and never get involved with a woman with a tattoo of a dagger on her body. Now you stick to that, and everything else is cream cheese."

And there we go, folks. There. We. Go. It's horrible. And it's horribly fantastic. And we, as pop culture enthusiasts, can hold both of those truths in our hands at the same time. Now on with the sho...

Roger Ebert called this one of the best movies of 1985. He was wrong, but this movie is incredibly rewatchable. So you should...you know...rewatch it. But you should listen to this podcast first.

This past February I built an entire program for adult women around 90s teen heartthrobs. It was called "Galentines: Tiger Beat Edition" and we talked our favorite actors of the 90s at a local pub, made classic 90s hairbows, played MASH, and drank beer. It was a great night. And it all started when I saw a p...

A re-watch that was different than I expected. "We're men / We're men in tights / We roam around the forest looking for fights / We're men / We're men in tights / We rob from the rich and give to the poor / That's right!"
