Episodes
It's been on my goal list to have chats with the regular pods that I listen to on a weekly basis. So, I'm stoked to have Tom of Dumpster Dive Podcast here on the show. We basically just had a rollercoaster of a chat talking some obscure reality shows (Bridalplasty!?), question how some of these shows were made, and our thoughts on Love Island. We also bonded over the VH1 cornerstone reality show, Mob Wives.
Enjoy!

Now, there are movies that are true time capsules. They capture the feeling and specific aura of time. In my rewatch of Palo Alto from 2013 I was instantly transported back to that time period. For me it was a very specific set of aesthetics and music that lived on the internet and Tumblr specifically and this whole movie felt like wandering through a blog.
I was tra...

I have mixed feelings about this season as a whole and Ashley is back on the pod to help me wrap this all up. We talk about the toxicity that is apparently rewarded on this season, the disastrous 'Family Day', and I get a rundown on the finale dates cause I didn't watch the finale. *groan
What a season, and now that it's over this is where the show really starts!

It's almost a tradition at this point to have Kendrick of the I Ken Not Podcast during Love Island season. For the third year in a row we're talking our current thoughts on Season 8 and just how that's holding up. It's the last week and we're talking the couples standings and twists like Kayda's trajectory, what's happening with Melanie, and our predictions on what should happen.
Then we're tal...

My head is spinning and that's to be expected with this last home stretch of Season 8. I'm at the point where I'm done and confused by so many choices these Islanders are making. Ashley continues her run on the pod to talk about our recent Kayda developments, the state of the current couples, and age old question of "Is this a relationship or a situationship?"

Oh, Sweet Lord things are heating up in the Villa and we're back again to break down Week 4. Me and Ashley give our usual temperature check on what's happening in the Villa, the boys being horrible overall, Casa recoupling Bad Girls Club style, and we get into how Movie Night is building cases and boiling our blood.

While this is a difficult film. to watch it has been on my list since I started the podcast. Mainly because it features Chloe Sevingy's only Oscar nominated performance (which is crazy). I've got Charles and Mikey with me to discuss this tragic true story of the life of Brandon Teena in early 90s Nebraska as a trans-man.
We talk about some of the actors who were previously thought of for the roles, the difficult reception by ...

It's time for Casa Amor in the USA Villa. Ashley is back on the pod and we're talking the diabolical transition this year, KC and Corbin's toxic ass friendship, and the girls needing to bring men back to the Villa for once!

Oh it's a whole horny mess up here in the Villa. It's Week 2 and we're just settling into these couples. Ashley is back with me to give our current temperature reading, Kenzie's questionable behavior, and just all the ways this season is very different than anything we've seen in the recent USA seasons.

It's been a whole mess since this Summer House thing popped off. Finally we get the payoff as the reunion has just started to air.

This is a special episode because this is my fresh, hot, and first watch of Beetlejuice. Yes, you read that right. I am a child of the 80s and somehow I have skated through life without seeing this movie. In the episode I explain how and why.
Since it's October spooky season, Mikey is along for the ride as an expert in all things scary and/or comedy. I'm here to report that I loved it and I sincerely think that we all identify with...
It's been a minute! You know I'm still deep and plugged into this Summer House drama so I get into that. Also touching on the end of the RHOBH reunion, Love Island starting back up, and the scripted shows like Euphoria, The Boys, and what the hell happening at SVU.

We're finally back in the world of 90s movies with Postcards from the Edge (1990)! This one has been on my list forever and I'm so miffed at myself for not seeing it sooner. Charles is back on the pod to chat this one with me. We get into how Meryl is basically good at EVERYTHING, how it's a crime that Shirley MacLaine didn't win the Oscar, and the amazing 'Stevie Nicks in the early 90s fashion'.

I swear we take 2 weeks off from talking Bravo and the whole Summer House scandal has moved miles and mountains since we last checked in. Now I was going to record a rageful episode last week but good thing I didn't cause now Callum is here to break down the latest bird behavior from "those two". We're talking that bold and insane baseball game PDA, the odd male dynamics in the house, and then cap it off with Bev Hills and The Vall...

This is one of those films that hits you like a ton of 'bricks' (ha). When I first saw the trailer on a "Focus Features" DVD I knew this was one that I had to see. In Rian Johnson's directorial debut, this modern film noir weaves quite a knot that slowly unties throughout the course of the story.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt carries every scene which reminded me of his other...
If you're a Bravo-head you know exactly what the deal is. Another scandal has popped off in the universe and this time it revolves around Summer House? The 'Summer should be fun!" show? Needless to say me and Callum are breaking down our thoughts on this whole new revelation.

This is becoming a thing. So Callum is back on the pod and we're going deep on the new Beverly Hills Housewives so far. We ended up diving into the dark layers beneath this quiet season.
Also touching on the recent news of the Kandi/Todd divorce settlement, thoughts on Summer House (so far), and some bits on the Potomac ladies.
