2023 was a great year! What started out with episodes recorded last year and needed a lengthy explanation to a live show together in LA, we're trying to get it together! We recount our favorite episodes, our favorite episode notes and our favs to duck, marry, kill, this episode is one for the ages.

The girls can’t get enough of their beloved animatronics - even the ones that scare them shitless. We discuss the WORST animatronics from the uncanny, the cancelled, the uncancelled and much much more.

The girls take on the Universal Studios Hollywood Jurassic Park renovation, Jurassic World, on their trip to Halloween Horror Nights! They relitigate dinosaur's you know whats, try to understand why you would go up a hill on a tour, and state their disdain for crisp rat. It's fun!

The girls are coming at you live from Highland Park's own Outside In theater! We review the mazes, discuss our thoughts, and even do a few bits!

Description: Here it is. The covid-era dream. The spooky promised land. Universal Studios’ HALLOWEEN HORROR NIGHTS! Is this our formal review? Absolutely not - we haven’t even gone yet, but in this episode we’re dipping our toes into the whole haunted theme park kit and caboodle. Come along and listen to us dive deeper into: The tangled web that is the history of HHN, especially the recurring char...

Oh Jesus - here we go. You guys wanted hard hitting thoughts - and we got ‘em! We’re two girls, of a little color, going off the rails. And we’ve landed nowhere! This episode is allegedly about Trader Sam’s but lemme tell ya - we’ve got a whole lot more than that coming your way. Can’t wait for you to get the whole scoop about; Thoughts on The Weeknd *BEFORE* his horribly sexist/extremely cringey...

In this episode of Girls Off the Rails, Rachel and DeAnna recount their August 2022 visit to the one and only Bubba Gump Shrimp (skrimp?) Co. in the Universal Citywalk. Again, in case you forgot, we stuck to the classics: we came, we ate (shrimp and drank blue drinks), and we left. Isn’t that what life’s all about? In the next hour and then some, you’ll hear about: Dee’s aqua socks mixup Speculati...

The girls discuss Country Bear Jamboree, and let's just say, it's a wild ride! They're not sure if it's good but they are sure that it was real. Rachel maybe like animatronic taxidermy. It's another throwback episode.

The girls are learning how tough it can be to be a bug! Or rather, how scary! Um, they come, they eat, they leave much? The girls are reunited in Chicago and talk to engineer Brok about how scared he and Rachel are of this ride.

The Girls are reunited in Chicago and they're taking that opportunity to record as much as possible! We discuss how many times we've lost this episode, how this ride is MAYBE being closed, and how absolutely freakin terrifying this ride is. It's a good one, I hope you enjoy!

Guess what Girls, this episode was also recorded a year ago! We get to reminisce on the time that we knew nothing about Guardians and apparently barely knew Rocket was a raccoon. We added a contemporary intro and outro to give updates and talk a bit about Dee's visit last year.

The Girls were reunited in Chicago! ALMOST 1 YEAR AGO! Since then they have moved across the country. Dee is in Chicago and Rachel is in LA, and they have been trying to get settled! This ep takes place on the strangest day ever, Roe V. Wade was overturned! And we ignore it in the ep! Enjoy!

Rachel and Dee sum up the season and talk about favorite moments, lost eps, and favorite foods.

Rachel and DeAnna discuss on of their "hometown" theme park cities, Wisconsin Dells! Wisconsin Dells is the waterpark capital of the world and has lots of other quirky amusement rides.

Rachel and DeAnna chat with Matthew Serrano, LA-based director of the documentary “Live from the Space Stage: a Halyx Story” - which was made/released in collaboration with Defunctland in Fall 2020. They get some behind the scenes details on this narrowly-pre-covid-produced doc, chat about Mike Post’s iconic other work (you know - the “DUN DUN” from Law and Order), and hear about a surprising fami...

We went to Orlando and Disney Springs! We give you some updates on the parks and summarize our visit. We also open some gifts and talk about our bad airbnb!!

We talk about the Amazing Adventures of Spiderman, our proposed changes to it, and how nice it is to see white people stay in their lane. And we DON'T know Marvel or villains at the time of record.

We talk to Danii Gallegos about space moutain and lots of other stuff. Like her experience as a cast member! We have too much to say and too little time! It's a fun one.

This one is what I like to call a Serious One. We all have long weeks and occasionally it shows! We share some Real Thoughts on racial representation in parks and get into what it could mean to have "good" Native visuals. It's cool! Also Rachel is Native. So if you're not Native and you have a problem with what she says, DON'T TALK !!!
