The Hart Chicks Present...

It's a Hart Chicks classic as we dive into Jaleh's fave, the truly underrated Persuasion. We've got trope talk, romance recs, great and terrible faces, and a reference to literally every other pod season we've done. It's what you know & love. Run the Bath marathon with us, dear hearts.

Hold onto your butts, because we're on a carriage ride with the Dashwoods. This week, we tackle the 2004 Sense & Sensibility miniseries, where we discuss the red flag combination of Lord Byron and Dominic Cooper, Cousin Matthew's mullet, and a group of townies worthy of Bluebell. Don't bother knocking, dear hearts— Meg already saw you and let us know you're on your way. Music: @sigismundtryapkin ...

This is an episode years in the making, much like the Marx-Engles Reader. We're deep diving into North & South aka Pride & Prejudice & Death & Unions. Listen as we gush about our love of practical effects, the danger of The Fluff, and a miniseries worth of Very Good Faces. Look back at us, dear hearts. Music: @sigismundtryapkin  Artwork: @jstnmbrwn  Bibliography:  From Pemberley to Milton. "North...

We're flying across the pond and into the moors for a Jaleh favorite, the 2006 Jane Eyre miniseries. It's the hottest Rochester the world has ever known, and listener, we'd marry him too. We cover it all from Dave Matthews Band to Ruth Wilson's gorgeous hair and everything in between. Wander the halls with us, dear hearts, but keep your flaming dresses at home.

We're starting our journey to the past on this side of the pond with Greta Gerwig's Little Women. Jaleh dives deep into the color story of Miss Flo, and Jessica can't stop talking about a different film. It's the classic Hart Chicks you know and love. Come trade limes with us, dear hearts.

The Hart Chicks Present is dropping a new season on June 22, 2023. Join us, dear hearts, on a 10 week journey of classic literature film and mini-series adaptations, with a few modern twists thrown into the mix.

It's trope talk this week on The Hart Chicks Present as we ask ourselves so many questions about 2005's The Baxter. While this film is our type on paper, it better get its grafting boots on. However, we'd go geode hunting in Malta with Justin Theroux and Jack Mechanic any day. We're Doug and you're dear hearts, and forever the twain shall meet Catch up with Dmitry @sigismundtryapkin on Instagram a...

We get deep into our feelings this week in part two of our Kumail couplet, where we all catch The Big Sick, based on Kumail & Emily's IRL relationship. Jaleh explains why it's triggering, Jessica yammers on about Ray Romano, and Honorary Hart Chick Jamie publicly apologizes for not laughing at every single one of Jess's jokes. Have a slice of sheet cake with a robot and join us, dear hearts. Liste...

It's the beginning of an accidental triplet, and we are super duper in love with 2020's The Lovebirds. It's a caper, it's a romance, it's a comedy, it's Kumail and Issa giving us the goods from t to b. If you like quotes about Doug and Dad, ideas for Sex & the City podcasts, and stories about not-real break-ups, then this is the episode for you. One, two, three, GO dear hearts!   Listen and subscr...

Skiddly to your mailbox for those Netflix discs, because we're taking it back to the mid-00s with a gem of a film. We're talking Something New, but your beloved cohosts are the same as ever. We clamor for a remake with Ryan Atwood, we proclaim ourselves good teeth-ers, and we never walk alone because Donald Faison carries us. Drink some wine next to a water feature with us, dear hearts. Catch up w...

In which we apologize for being bad hosts and hint at something to come. Things will happen, dear hearts.

Gas up the jet and book your first class sleeping room because we're flying to Singapore in our minds. We watched Crazy Rich Asians, and we have all the hot takes like, "Awkwafina is hilarious" and "this amount of wealth is unfathomable!" Plus, we talk about The Crown and its gateway into internet rabbitholes, bridesmaids with wet feet, and weirdly, OJ Simpson. Bok bok, dear hearts! Catch up with...

Jaleh and Jessica host a podcast. WHOOPADEEDOO! It's a quote-fest on this week's episode, because we're talking about The Wedding Singer, and it's impossible not to quote along. We get intellectual about millennial 80s nostalgia before we devolve completely in classic Hart Chicks style. Now take off that Van Halen t-shirt, dear hearts, before you jinx the band and they break up.   Catch up with Dm...

It's time to cliff-dive into our next couplet: rom-coms with male leads, starting with Forgetting Sarah Marshall, a modern classic full of one-liners and Jason Segel's work of art. We mean the Dracula Musical, of course. Plus, we are pleased as punch to welcome Honorary Hart Chick Vince of The Future Break-Up (@futurebreakup), a guest spot years in the making. Sip on the Haderade and head to the N...

The Mayors of Tangent Town have returned to discuss the magical realism of the modern fairy-tale, Penelope. We really get into this flick, as well as Rage Against the Machine, IMDB, and the plot of Atonement told badly. Plus, James McAvoy — need we say more? Don your best scarf & coat combo and hop a Vespa with us, dear hearts. Catch up with Dmitry @sigismundtryapkin on Instagram and TikTok   #har...

Get your tokens, dear hearts, because we're taking the El straight to Chicago for the April Christmas classic, While You Were Sleeping. Eliza Jo is back too, so you know we have lots of opinions about everything: Spaceballs, string cheese, and the dramaturgical impact of voiceover. No, seriously we do. Flip your coat to the reversible side and hunker down in a chunky sweater with us. Catch up with...

CK Dexter Haven, it's another classic! Change out of that space-aged dressing gown and swan dive into The Philadelphia Story with us. We talk toxic men, Dateline, drunk acting, and all things yar. We also talk about the actual heroine, which is Dinah and we won't be taking any questions on the matter. Plus, who is going to make us the sequel with Mike & Liz, please and thank you? Don't wait for th...

We're taking it all the way back to the OG rom-com this week, and we're pleased as punch to talk about what happened one night that was actually like four nights. Hear all about our film critic school past, our Spaceballs tangents, and our whole opinions about Pre-Code Hollywood (spoiler alert: you probably already know). Fly through the air with the greatest of ease with us, dear hearts.   Catch...

We're back, dear hearts, and we're ready to dive into our first season: Rom-Coms. We had to kick it off with a shoutout to our Bluebell roots with Sweet Home Alabama. We got hot takes on the fashion of 2002, the effects of lightning on sand, and how there is no such thing as a bad Ethan Embry performance. I hope Neil Young will remember to listen in, and so should you. Catch up with Dmitry @sigism...

We're back, dear hearts! Jaleh and Jess have a season of romantic comedy films coming your way. Go watch Sweet Home Alabama and download our episode this Friday! Subscribe at:  https://lead.deals/podcasts/thehartchickspresent

We're back on our BS, dear hearts, but this time, we're in a much lusher locale. The two of us have fallen hard for Love Island UK, so we decided to pull each other for a chat about the drama of Series 5. Put on your grafting boots and make yourself a cheese toastie— we're going to the villa!

It's our regularly scheduled closing time at Hart of Dixie Chicks, so finish your whiskeys and beers. We decided to give our dear hearts a super sized episode for the last one, mostly because we couldn't shut up about Zoe Hart, Wade Kinsella, and all our favorite Bluebellians. Plus, we have some entries in the mailbag as well as guest appearances from our podfathers The OC Men, the BS Twins, and a...
