I Hate Green Beans with Lincee Ray

In this episode, my roommate Lara and I discuss why we love the show Younger , who we would choose if we were the leading lady stuck in a ridiculously good-looking love triangle, and somehow we ended in a lively debate revolving around tattoos and what we would get if we had one. Barbed wire. Around my bicep. Duh.  EPISODE NOTES: Younger Season 1 Trailer myJongg.net SHOW NOTES: Subscribe to P...

This week I’m discussing Hitch with my friend Todd. It’s charming, endearing, hopeful, and stars Will Smith. What’s not to love?  Just listen to this plot line:  Dating coach Alex Hitchens mentors a bumbling client, Albert  who hopes to win the heart of the glamorous Allegra Cole. While Albert makes progress, Hitch faces his own romantic setbacks when proven techniques fail to work...

In this episode, Stephanie and I discuss our favorite wedding movies. Now I must disclaim that this list BY NO MEANS is a complete list of our favorites. It was very hard to narrow down, but we did our best.  What makes a good wedding movie? I’m glad you asked. You need an anxious father. A hired boyfriend. A best friend who is like Jell-O. Seven new brides in gingham dresses. A handful...

In this episode, Lara and I discuss all things Schitt’s Creek , which is a wonderful television show that we just rediscovered during stay-at-home orders.  Let me tell you, dear listener, it is a delight. The cast, the fashion, the one-liners, the script…we love it all.  Get ready to fold in the cheese, bebés. This episode rivals the epic performance in Rose Apothecary.  EW, DA...

Well, after six weeks (which felt like the entire summer), my  Listen To Your Heart  dreams of Matt and Rudi falling in love during the season finale were dashed in the first fifteen minutes of the two-hour spectacle. Yet, we press on. In this episode Some Guy in Austin and I discuss the finer things from the finale. These include, but are not limited to: Chris Harrison in a tuxedo Dan P...

Hello everyone! In today’s episode, Todd and I lament over the fact that we are unable to record our summer movie preview.  Remember going to a movie theater? Fun times. Those were the good old days before the year 2020 started acting like your drunk uncle at the family reunion.  Well, Todd and I powered through the pain and shifted gears, creating a list that, in this day and age, feels...

Hello everyone! Thanks so much for tuning in this week. We are down to four couples and when the end of the journey is no longer a dot in the distance, things get real. You learn who is in love, who’s faking it, and who wants this more than anyone else.  In this episode Some Guy in Austin and I continue to tackle some of the greatest questions surrounding this show. For example:  Is the...

Thanks so much for tuning in this week! I’ve had such a fun time trying to figure out Listen To Your Heart with Some Guy in Austin. Analyzing this show has become one of my greatest pleasures during social distancing.  In this episode we answer some of the greatest questions surrounding this show. For example:  Is Julia the worst?  Who is choosing Jamie’s wardrobe? Is Natascha the w...

Great news, people! We sort of, in a roundabout vague way, finally know what Listen To Your Heart is all about! Shout out to week 3 for extending those important details. It’s a singing competition with a love component, yes, and the couples are judged, sure, but what we don’t know is HOW these duets are scored. Do we have parameters? Is there a handy leader board? Will the judges hold up paddles?...

Even though Listen To Your Heart has a musical component, we have to remember that it is first and foremost a show about LOVE. And hearts. And listening to those hearts.  But Some Guy in Austin and take our job very seriously and insist on discussing more than who has the best duet and whose relationship is going to make it. In this episode, we instead discuss important details like: Who does...

Kudos to the ABC producers who were forward-thinking enough to anticipate that the typical Bachelor viewing audience needed a place for all the budding musical artists of the world to congregate. It’s just a happy coincidence that this train wreck of a show was slated to air at a time when tigers are king and love is blind.  This is —  LISTEN TO YOUR HEART ! EPISODE NOTES: If you’d like...

It’s day question mark of sheltering in place and most of you have reached a point in this journey where cooking is no longer fun, love ones are no longer adorable, and the Netflix “to watch” list is running dangerously low. I am pretty lucky.  I don’t cook, which means all I have to do is make sure there are enough cans of Pringles and Dr Pepper in the cupboard to last me for a f...

In today’s episode, my friend Stephanie and I bring you joy, happiness, and sparkle in the form of Sarah Jessica Parker. Join us as we discuss her dance movies, her comedic skills, and one very creepy, unsettling song that gives me nightmares.  Seriously. NIGHTMARES. EPISODE NOTES: Steph’s SJP Picks: Girls Just Wanna Have Fun Hocus Pocus The First Wive’s Club Lincee’s SJP Picks: F...

We lost an incredible entertainer this week. As Some Guy in Austin and I discuss, Kenny Rogers decorated our lives with music. He was a walking example of what excellent hair follicles look like and he knew how to grow a luscious beard. But above all, he taught us that knowing when to hold ’em and knowing when to fold ’em is a lesson we must all put into practice. May he rest in peace....

We are back to celebrate another romantic comedy in our “It’s a Love Story” series, sponsored by my book conveniently titled, It’s a Love Story . You can find it wherever books are sold! Anytime I get Mama and my sister together, you know there’s going to be a bunch of laughing. Especially when you’re talking about a movie that has “dirty” in the title.  We are a family of dancers, so you can imag...

In a time of social distancing, my roommate Lara and I came up with some suggestions for those of you who can no longer go to work, school, sporting events, or live entertainment. We even threw in some alternate rodeo and Bachelor watching options just to be safe. Enjoy! EPISODE NOTES: I wrote a post about some book suggestions from IHGB readers . You remember books, right? Those square things mad...

Well season 24 of The Bachelor has come to a close and Peter the Pilot found love, proposed to it, said JUST KIDDING, and waited for Chris Harrison to go fetch the real woman of his dreams so he could be friends with her for a while before deciding if he can break his mother’s heart by marrying this woman. Some Guy in Austin and I break down both nights of the finale, including a certain woman’s g...

Women Tell All  is a strange phenomenon of a show. One might surmise that a DVR which touts 120-minuets of ladies sharing all the things is television just begging to be watched. One might be wrong.  The good news is that the producers set the bar really high with a theatrical rose ceremony worthy of our time. Is Madison going to join her fellow contestants at the Home Depot pillar? Or w...

First off, I’d like to make a correction. During Moments with Mama, which is at the very very end of all my bachelor podcasts, Mother on more than one occasion borrows the term Fantasy Land. Using contest clues she either means the fantasy suite date or the actual fantasy suite. At one point we get a Fantasy Island. I feel it’s necessary to disclaim that this recap is in no way affiliated with the...

It’s home town dates and you know what that means! Drama. Weird family quirks.  Mothers crying as if their child is returning from war.  Plates of food, yet no one eats.  The rolling of eyes. The dropping of L-bombs. And women with blurry faces who feel it is their need to set the record straight when they happen upon their ex-boyfriend dancing around with a notorious home wrecker. Isn’t it...

Not a whole heck of a lot happened during last night’s episode other than Natasha finally getting a one-on-one, Kelley stepping into annoying villain territory, and Peter finally getting his Band-Aid off his head wound. But that doesn’t stop Some Guy in Austin and I from discussing Peter’s final four. We dive deep and right before my VERY POPULAR “Moment with Mama” segment, we go off the rails on...

Last night my friend Todd and I watched all thirteen hours of the 2020 Oscars so we could bring you the latest greatest news as viewed by the Academy. We have lots of thoughts that we’ll share with you, including which movies you need to see and which movies you need to skip. We focus on the nine films nominated for Best Motion Picture. You can watch the trailers below! EPISODE NOTES: 1917 Ford v....

Well, it’s week 5 of Peter the Pilot’s journey to find love and it is the length of the Super Bowl. Some Guy in Austin and I discuss the now infamous Cosmo date with Victoria F., Kelsey’s emotional health, and whether or not Peter contracted some sort of jungle disease in his head wound when he made out with Sydney under a waterfall. I’ve watched enough Grey’s Anatomy to know that answer is y...

Well, it’s week 4 of Peter the Pilot’s journey to find love and it is a doozy.  Some Guy in Austin and I discuss the sheer coincidence that Victoria F’s former flame, country music star Chase Rice, just HAPPENED to be on her one-on-one date in a Cleveland-adjacent amusement park. What are the odds? Then we insert ourselves into the mutinous bandwagon, tossing up a few AMENS, as we debate how...

Good news! Peter the Pilot is in love with twelve women. Isn’t that fabulous? Typically Some Guy in Austin and I don’t have the “can you be in love with multiple women at the same time” conversation in week 3, but Peter is not your typical guy. Enjoy! EPISODE NOTES: If you’d like to read Peter’s week 3 recap, I’ve got it right  HERE ! And if you’d like to participate i...
