Let Me Introduce You

Do you have SOUL, dear listeners? This week, Ashley introduces Alan Parker's 1991 hit, 'The Commitments,' a film she watched many times with her father. Did we all love rocking out with this band? Hint: One of us did NOT! We discuss important films we all watched with our parents, as well as directors that inspired us in our youths (and if they've stayed that way). Plus, a Glenn Powell story (?!)...

Trick or Treat! This week, Graham introduces the gang to the 1991 spooky comedy "Ernest Scared Stupid" - a movie that (for real) terrified him as a child. Graham? Scared of something? Say it isn't so! We also discuss other spooky movies from our youth, our admiration of Eartha Kitt, and the perils of getting older (Ashley's poor knee!). Stay safe out there kids, and Happy Halloween! ALSO, apologiz...

This week, we welcome in Adam Wingard's 2014 thriller The Guest! Listen to us swoon over the sexy (and dangerous ) Dan Stevens, appreciate the mumblegore of it all, describe horror vs. thriller, and again, SWOON over Dan Stevens. Did we mention that we liked Dan Stevens in this? We also discuss other men we find sexy and Graham finds another way to insult Halloween III. Plus, some talk about the i...

This week, Ashley introduces Katie to the 1999 cult class "Drop Dead Gorgeous!" We cover all things Minnesota thanks to Ashley's expertise, celebrate all of the hilariously funny women in the cast, and Graham screams at Ashley for (not really) remembering the TV show 'Cheers.' Plus, we may have a new title for our show? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

As summer comes to a close, we head back to camp! This week, we discuss the 1995 Disney gem 'Heavyweights,' starring Ben Stiller and a whole mess of people who go on to do some great things. We also discuss our own summer camp experiences (did Graham say...'puppet camp?') and other camp-centered films we enjoy. So, grab a seat by the campfire, make some s'mores and enjoy! Hosted on Acast. See acas...

Ooooffff...this is a contentious one! This week, Graham and Ashley subject Katie to the absolutely wild 1976 kid gangster musical Bugsy Malone ! Kid gangster musical you say?! Katie must have LOVED it. (Spoiler: She did not love it!) We have quite a time discussing one of the strangest movies that has ever graced the silver screen, starring Scott Baio (boo) and Jodie Foster (yay). So, grab your sp...

This week, we are looking for adventure on the BIG BLUE WET THING! Graham introduces Katie and Ashley to the charming, swashbuckling Muppet adventure where Kermit & the gang (and an amazing Tim Curry) take on the Robert Louis Stevenson's classic. We recorded this back in 2024, so if any pop culture references are out of date, that's why :) Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more inform...

This week, Katie re-introduces us to the 1999 shark thriller Deep Blue Sea. Sharks! Samuel L. Jackson untimely end! A wet Thomas Jane (yum)! We discuss fun kills, cheesy effects, and how Graham was afraid he'd be attacked by a shark in his backyard pool growing up (?). We wrap up with a discussion on our summer jobs: Katie as a CHEF(!), Graham hatred of lettuce wraps, and Ashley's adventures in Ho...

ARE YOU READY TO kind of ROCK?! Ashley introduces one of The Disney Channel's highest rated D-COMs (that's "Disney Original Movies" for those of us not in the know) and we go in on the fabulous fashion, purity rings, and an unexpected "appearance" from the Kids, Incorporated alum?! We also discuss what instruments are the sexiest and end it with some questions for Katie. In the words of Demi Lovat...

For this episode, we go way back to 1949 with William Wyler's "The Heiress," starring Olivia de Havilland in her Academy Award-winning performance in one heck of a movie. We gush over her brilliant performance, marvel at Ralph Richardson's portrayal of a particularly dastardly father, and absolutely SWOON over the delicious Montgomery Clift. We then dive into the value of a film with an ambiguous...

Can you believe it? We are back! Join us as we cover the 1995 film version of The Baby-Sitters Club and celebrate women in business! We also caught an episode of the 1990 HBO television series and had quite a time comparing the two adaptations. Just quick programming note: Katie had to dip out towards the end of the episode to take care of a new family addition(!) and apologies for some wonky audi...

After a long hiatus (sorry!), we are back with the John Waters classic "Serial Mom!" Katie is introduced to Kathleen Turner's Beverly Sutphin who just thinks everyone should behave properly...and if they don't, she takes care of them! We also catch up on what we've been doing as well as recent media we've enjoyed. Sit back, relax...and don't forget to recycle! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privac...

We are BACK (again)! Did you miss us? In this episode in our "Movies for Vanna" series, Ashley introduces Katie to the 1977 animated version of J.R.R. Tolkien's "The Hobbit!" Also, we got to see each other...in person! The team debriefs their recent reunion in LA completing with meeting the one and only Vanna and our journey to get new piercings. Ashley then dives into what scared her from The Hob...

What's that? A new episode (and new SEASON) of LMIY in your podcast feeds? Believe it! After an extended hiatus, the gang is back to catch up on what has happened over the past 9 months, both in life and what media we've enjoyed. We then launch into our new theme "Movies for Vanna" (in celebration of Katie's new bundle of joy) with her family favorite, 1997's Mouse Hunt! Katie gives us a rundown o...

It's our SEASON FINALE EPISODE...and we're bringing you, our dear listeners, two very special offerings -- 1) a 1996 film that NONE of us had ever seen, starring our podcast's patron saint, Ms. Tori Spelling, and 2) The Second Annual LMIY Awards! So please join us for this made for TV movie that really is just the epitome of fun trash. Tori Spelling plays the titular character Laurel -- a senior i...

How do you follow up one of the most successful musicals in modern memory? How about you cast relative unknowns in lead roles and get them started with a 1/2 finished script that makes ZERO sense, and only just barely connects to its source material? YES, THIS MOVIE IS GOD AWFUL...but it has earned its cult status over the past almost forty years...so join us as Ashley introduces Katie to a belove...

In one of the countless billions of galaxies in the universe, lies a medium-sized start, and one of its satellites, a green and insignificant planet, is now dead. We, your dear podcasters, are delighted to swerve HARD from last episode's heartwarming story with a film about political ruin, dystopian society, nuclear fear, religious zealotry...and sexy shirtless men with an obvious Katie pick for o...

Hey, there. The world has been a lot lately. But if we're kind and polite, the world will be right. So why don't you make a cuppa, grab yourself a marmalade sandwich, and join us not only for an unBEARably delightful film, but the launch of our new theme -- SEQUEL SENSATIONS! Graham has been singing the virtues of this film for at least five episodes now, so it's finally time for him to introduce...

We're ending our EXCUSE ME, WHAT?! Series of films we JUST CAN'T FRIGGING BELIEVE the others haven't seen with a big one...a GIANT WHIFFED MISS in Katie's film education, 1986's Labyrinth . This film is a seminal work in the canon of Jim Henson, and showcases some of the amazing things that puppetry can do on film...from something as tiny as a wee little worm who offers you tea with the missus, to...

It's not often we visit the 1950s, but for Ashley's pick in our judgement-free theme (we promise), EXCUSE ME, WHAT?! -- films we cannot believe the others have seen -- we take a romantic trip on an Italian cruise, right into the hearts of Cary Grant and Deborah Kerr in 1957's An Affair to Remember. Our two main characters fall in love (OBV) on a cruise ship while involved with other people, so the...

We, your beloved podcasters, pride ourselves on our film knowledge and expertise. However, there are some movies that have simply escaped our cultural lexicon...some of them are even BEST PICTURE WINNERS. I bet you'd say "Excuse me, WHAT?! YOU HAVEN'T SEEN THIS?!" Well, you wouldn't be the only one...so we proudly present our second entry into the MOVIES WE CAN'T BELIEVE YOU HAVEN'T SEEN with our...

We're welcoming the new year with shame!! Enter our newest theme, Excuse me, WHAT?! Films we just CAN'T BELIEVE you haven't seen. And we're starting with one of our WHITE WHALES, the 1988 classic romantic BUSINESS WOMAN COMEDY, Working Girl. This is the one movie that started the whole podcast idea, and a film Graham holds so dear to his heart that he was terrified of showing it to Ashley and Kati...

Hallmark Christmas Movies...what better way to get into the holiday spirit than overdosing on hot chocolate, snowball fights, caroling, and literally every trope you could possibly associate with Christmas? Join Graham and Ashley as they introduce Katie to the SHEER WONDER that is Hallmark, starting with Never Kiss a Man in a Christmas Sweater -- a new film for the 2020 Hallmark slate. This story...

The podcast which you are about to listen to is an account of the tragedy which befell a group of three best friends, in particular Ashely Krohn and her older brother, (and our special guest) Justin. It is all the more tragic in that they were young(ish). But, had they lived very, very long lives, they could not have expected nor would they have wished to view as much of the mad and macabre as the...

Ever wonder why Graham is the way he is (aka utterly perfect?) Well, your favorite podcasters invite his older sister Stephanie on to our show to talk about the very movie that shaped them as kids (them, and most likely no one else, based on the box office) -- as the two Veths introduce Katie and Ashley to the WONDER that is 1989's Teen Witch. Drama, romance, comedy, musical, fantasy...this movie...
