Winona Forever: The Winona Ryder Podcast

In this episode, Rekha and Lindsay discuss the return of Lydia Deetz and how she's evolved (or not) in this long-time-coming sequel to one of her first and best films.

In this episode, Rekha and Lindsay talk about Winona and Dermot Mulroney's confusing return —since How to Make an American Quilt — Gone in the Night. The film can't decide if it's a thriller or a romantic comedy, but it's certainly obsessed with the idea that Winona is old.

In this episode, Rekha and Lindsay talk about the fourth season of Stranger Things. Winona gets a bit lost in this too-many-plotlines season, but they're still rooting for Joyce Byers.

In this episode, Rekha and Lindsay are back... again! This time they discuss the pandemic-special Sarah Cooper: Everything's Fine that follows the titular TikTok star/comedian/political lipsyncer as she tries to host an out-of-control news program (and meets Winona's character — very briefly — along the way). Your hosts recorded this one on 4-track, for technical-difficulty reasons.

In this episode, Rekha and Lindsay are back! They're joined by producer Chris to talk about The Plot Against America: a mini-series that was too heavy for most of them to watch during a pandemic and is maybe still too heavy, but they did their duty.

In the final regular episode of Winona Forever, Rekha and Lindsay talk about When Love Is Not Enough -- Winona's Hallmark movie -- and are delighted to find so many classic Winona moments (and so many Canadians!).

In this episode, Rekha and Lindsay talk about the third season of Stranger Things. Winona is still kick-ass, but this time she's fighting Russians.

In this episode, Rekha and Lindsay talk about Destination Wedding, a film that promised us a long-awaited Keanu and Winona reunion, but delivered the most dislikeable Winona and Keanu imaginable.

In this episode, Rekha and Lindsay are joined by the host of the podcast Riverdale Rude Dudes (Candace Meeks) to discuss their shared love for Stranger Things Season Two's Joyce Byers, and Bob Newby, superhero.

In this episode, Rekha and Lindsay discuss all of Winona's TV guest appearances and discover that she is a brilliant comedic actress.

In this episode, Rekha and Lindsay finally discuss season one of Stranger Things, including how smart, strong, and compassionate Joyce is, and how much they love the vindication of women in this season.

Rekha and Lindsay discuss the stressful political drama Show Me A Hero, Winona's performance as real-life city councillor Vinnie Restiano, and her latest go at a New York accent.

In this episode, Rekha and Lindsay discuss the film Experimenter, Winona's love for Peter Sarsgaard, and the ethics of social psychology experiments.

In this episode, Rekha and Lindsay allowed a TV movie into the podcast with Winona's first political-drama, the star-studded Turks & Caicos.

In this episode, Rekha and Lindsay talk about Winona as an action movie villain and her reunion with James Franco in the Jason Statham action flick Homefront. Our low expectations really worked in this one's favor.

In this episode, Rekha and Lindsay talk about Frankenweenie, an animated film Rekha actually likes and marks Winona's chance to play her iconic dark teen character again.

In this episode, Rekha and Lindsay get brutally honest about The Letter, a very pretentious art film that wants to be Black Swan and Mulholland Drive but just isn't that good.

In this episode, Rekha, Lindsay and producer Chris grouse about the sanitized portrayal of mobsters in biopics, as well as Winona as a mob-wife in The Iceman.

In this episode, Rekha and Lindsay suffer through The Dilemma despite their mutual hatred for Vince Vaughn. Winona has good hair, though. They show their ignorance of Channing Tatum’s career and then take a deep dive down an IMDb rabbit hole.

In this episode, Rekha and Lindsay celebrate the escape from the 2000s with Rekha's film school friend Adam Holman. Upon rewatch, they're all reminded that Black Swan is like Mean Girls with body horror.

In this episode, Rekha and Lindsay talk about Stay Cool, a film that might contain more Hilary Duff than Winona Ryder, but that features Winona having sex with a guy while they listen to his audiobook.

In this episode, Rekha and Lindsay are joined by Lee Wiesblatt to talk about Winona as Spock's mom, weird Star Trek-related trivia, and how much this version of Star Trek fails its women. In this episode there were a few things mentioned that we thought might warrant more information. First, our hosts mention the Canadian film Last Night in which guest host Lee Wiesblatt played the younger version...

In this episode, Rekha and Lindsay talk about The Private Lives of Pippa Lee, another Winona-Keanu team-up and another film where Winona is barely present and stuck in her purgatory as the secondary, poorly written friend-or-mistress.

In this episode, Rekha and Lindsay talk about The Informers, based on a Bret Easton Ellis book and featuring too little Winona.

In this episode, Rekha and Lindsay talk about 2008's The Last Word and are surprised to find they liked Ray Romano better than Winona.
