Kill The Video Star

Boom bop here's the new ep! We do a lot of gossiping and talking about life organization in this one and there is a perceptible decrease in actual video talk... I'm sure that's what everyone wants!! We talk about the joys of out-of-town shopping, Oasis, being 29, sepia toned videos vs. black and white videos, taxidermy, the music video drinking game and SO MUCH MORE!! Video #1: https://www.youtube...

Welcome back to the podcast, dear listeners. We go quite long on this one, I'm sure that's exactly what everyone wants from us!! We talk about Paris, Texas (1984), what kind of lightbulbs we would be, our thoughts about Riot Fest 2025, Hard to Hold (1984), and the Doechii tiny desk performance. And so. much. more!!! Sit back, relax, and don't let the audio quality scary ya. We love you!!! Video #1...

Boom, another week, another podcast. This is our Bratiest Summeriest pod yet, we will not apologize for how many times we utter the phrase "Brat Summer". We recorded this at the beginning of August 2024, so it took a while to marinate but we're back in business now and this is the last archival episode. Everything after this is as current as we make them. So enjoy our naiveté. We talk about Kentuc...

Wow, hello again dear friends! We are throwing it way back to June 2024, when this was recorded. We talk about meeting pro golfers at the bar, being a background character in The Hannah Montana Movie, Toby Keith being a hottie, Kenny Chesney being a hottie, Jimmy Buffett being a hottie, Anthony Kiedis being a hottie... we salivate over a lot of different men in this one. Hope you're into that!! Me...

Who is the Main Character and who is the NPC this week?? Who is that naked man? All these questions and so much more answered on this week's episode. Get ready for some German white guy dread realness (do you know where this is going...?) and some pink fingernails/orange sweater vest vibes. We talk an awful lot about queerness and it's not even Pride Month yet!! Video #1: https://www.youtube.com/w...

Heyo, good podcast listening people! We're once again back after a little break, but bringing some bangers to you today. This is an Albini memorial AND summer good fun times episode, if you can believe it. We talk about putting on leopard print heels to walk to the corner store, the magic of having telehealth, the nest of coaxial cables on my roof, and SO MUCH MORE! Sorry about some sound issues!!...

Hello dear listeners! This one is a banger, don't get distracted by the misinformation around UTIs we insist on telling you. It's not gross talk, it's more of a moral discussion around taking medical advice from Reddit or whatever. We also talk about the Met Gala, Britney Spears, where the kidneys are located in your back, and the Tom DeLong-iverse. Anyway listen to us ramble!! Love you!! xoxo Vid...

Boom! We forgot we had a podcast for two weeks but we came back with an absolute banger. We talk about all things Adam Sandler, the CGI of 2001, Pinback (band), and both of us getting the La Dispute flower tattoo. We don't need to discuss the LD flower much in the same way we don't need to discuss the sound on this episode or the way Maissie pronounces "miniscule". Both of these videos are in 240p...

Sorry, dear listeners, it's a 2011/12 episode with some unintentional hot pink lipstick theming going on. Anyway, we yap and yap about Corey Feldman, living in a van, gay cowboys, gay pop, Morocco, Saudi Arabia, and SO MUCH MORE! Maissie claiming our favorite band is ICP is a direct attack and we are now at war. Strap on a helmet, dig a trench, get a gas mask, and listen to the pod!! Video #1: htt...

Welcome back to the pod, friends and family! This is a good one! We yap about the two wolves inside Maissie, the concept of not having a 'pause' button on everything you watch, 90's skate culture, and coven imagery. What does 'the machine' mean to you? Would YOU be comfortable in a chateau?? Get back to us. Love you xoxo Video #1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_kIrRooQwuk Video #2: https://www.y...

The big THREE-OH! We begin this one by thinking it'll be a little shorty but (you guessed it!) we manage to spin it out for our usual hour and a half of something bordering on content. We spend most of this one talking about men with flat ironed hair, introverts and extroverts, the Asian-American experience, and we speculate wildly about the Cyrus family. If we got something wrong, please don't te...

Here we go again! Please help us welcome our first-time guest, the great Megan McGivern! We recorded this in person, on one microphone, so my bad if everything sounds kinda bad! We talk about everything under the sun on this one folks, including why soccer teams always have such weird names, various female characters on Mad Men, Mukbangs, and Coldplay. We get deep into the rules of the music video...

Are y'all gearing up for St. Patrick's Day?? We sure are! Welcome to the first (and possibly only) St. Patrick's Day celebratory episode! We talk a little bit about the guest we will have on next week's episode, espresso martinis, the Pancake Pantry (located in Nashville, TN), and we even muddle our way through talking about a traumatizing international conflict (but not that one.) Listen all the...

We're SO back (because it's getting warmer...!) This is an unintentional 4-video spectacular and somehow it's not even our longest episode. We talk about kind of hating spring, Louder Than Life 2024 in Louisville, Glee, who won the Grammy this year, Pokemon: 2000, and SO MUCH MORE!! Videos 1&2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7NJqUN9TClM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WbwrzuwXWI8 Videos 3&amp...

Welcome back to our podcast, ostensibly about music videos! This one is prime yap o'clock and we yap until we can't yap no more! We talk about replacing twitter in our lives (and come to a surprising conclusion about which platform will replace it), how to sing when your mouth is a rectangle, Elvis (2022), and SO MUCH MORE. Listen all the way to the end for some enlightening Star Trek commentary!...

Hello, dear friends and enemies! Thanks for tuning in again to our one-of-a-kind whiplash-inducing spectacular! We discuss working in a post-pandemic world, grief, hot girls wearing leather, and once again, our endless love for The Dukes of Hazzard (2005). We say a lot of controversial things that do not need to be said and casually gloss over plenty of things that probably need to get talked abou...

Back again this week with a fiery double feature set in the late Aughts (late 2000's, for those not in know). We chat in depth about making a livable wage at a job we both enjoy, Tiger Beat magazine, Nick Jonas' medical history, and some interesting horror franchises. Please let us know if you like these longer episodes/what your preferences are regarding the half hour of chatter at the top of the...

It's a double-long specially themed episode this week! We're busting those January blues by yammering at you for over an hour and a half! We discuss Saltburn, PlentyofFish.com, the 2004 VMA awards, and the way modern technology peaked with the LG Chocolate. Here's a few links to works mentioned on the podcast this week: Mike's Mic: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YePm8ZTlVNw Alina's Twitch channel...

You're not ready for the information contained in this one, dear listeners. It's a long one so grab a cup of tea and load up your youtube home screen, you don't want to miss a beat of this one. We talk about having a blog in 2008, Shelby literally and figuratively burning her ass, sending the gifts (it's really happening!), editing photos on picnik, and SO MUCH MORE! Maybe we even...

Hello, podcast parishioners! You're in for a thrill ride this week as we go back to the beginning of MTV, talk about how we're hard working but not hustling, and think about who might have been working at a Spencer's in 2002. Listen to find out why MTV's feed would occasionally go blank in the early 80's, and how to (not) pronounce a certain band's name.... All this AND SO...

Hey party people! We're knocking it out of the park in January!! "It" in that context is putting out previously recorded episodes in a REGULAR way! It's a 90's special this week, but we also discuss the benefits of leaving your Christmas decorations up, Keith Urban looking like he's wearing makeup, performing on an iceberg, and SO MUCH MORE! Video 1: https://www.youtube.c...

It's our special Current Pop Icons episode! We did plan it this way but we love a theme so much sometimes it just happens naturally. We talk about sending each other little treats, what happens to us when we go into a thrift store, Taylor Swift doing felonies, and how Slay bells are RINGING us into this New Year! Hope everybody had wonderful holidays and are now feeling the immense burden of t...

Another one! On this banger of an episode we talk about Aldi's ravioli selection, chromebooks (negative), twirling around in front of the mirror, and Highlander. Plus, we definitely talk about some music videos you'll really be into. Contact us if you're into buying a shirt. This episode was recorded in September but here we are, y'all know the deal by now. Consider each podcast ep...

Another brief hiatus, another new episode! Got tired of fielding questions from our massive fan base so we got to editing! In this one we cover Riot Fest excitement, Flavor of Love, every concert we're looking forward to, the rise of interest in video essays and much more! Almost too much! We talk about a bad Pitchfork article for longer than any music video (but in a good way!) There's al...

Wham, bam, here we go again! You'll be sorry if you don't listen to this one! This was recorded about a month ago... I have a demanding life schedule, blah blah blah, who cares. It's out now and that's all that matters. We talk at LENGTH in this one about Sinéad O'Connor, Maissie's relationship beginnings, spiders, and how the structure of letterboxd is good but not great....
