Put It On The List

Alright, you know the deal: are you going for the chicken or the podcast? Anime Fun Time is over, as EV took the rest of the girls to something that can barely be categorized as a movie: Minecraft but I survive in PARKOUR CIVILIZATION [FULL MOVIE] . Essentially a compilation of YouTube Shorts, Parkour Civilization is an amalgamation of Let's Plays, anti-capitalist art, and algorithm manipulation....

You can lead a horse to water, but you can't teach her how to podcast. The anime relay race enters the final stretch as Bridget takes the girls to the horse track with Uma Musume: Pretty Derby — Beginning of a New Era . Although the girls appreciate the concept and moments of stunning animation, the opinions on the final product are mixed, to say the least. Join Bri, Bridget, EV, and Jae as they d...

Once you give up, the podcast is truly over. Bri is running the anime basketball down the court, as she brings the girls to The Championships in The First Slam Dunk ! The directorial debut of esteemed manga artist Takehiko Inoue, The First Slam Dunk stuns the girls by both capturing the feeling of an amazing sports game while also feeling like a monumental achievement in anime, akin to Akira or Na...

We may be a movie podcast first and foremost, but, goddamnit, we contain multitudes! In their first bonus episode, the girls spend a couple hours running down what their favorite gaming experiences of 2024 were. They're unbridled by year of release, objective quality, and even the broad concept of what defines a video game in these rankings, so don't expect a conversation on the tent pole releases...

I wish this spiral were a podcast. The wildcard is back in action this episode, as Jae takes the rest of the girls into the Nasu-verse with The Garden of Sinners: Paradox Spiral . Despite being the fifth film in an eight film franchise, Jae makes the argument that this part manages to function well outside of that context by virtue of being a bottle-episode-style mystery thriller. Let's find out i...

Some podcasters always tryin' to ice-skate uphill. EV has once again brought the rest of the girls back to the late 90s, this time to check out the proto-MCU comic book adaptation, Blade ; it's arguably the most 90s-coded film they've watched so far, for all the positive and negative associations tied to such a label. Join Bri, Bridget, EV, and Jae as they discuss medieval circumcision, Enron, and...

Come with me if you wanna podcast. After being stuck in the shadow of Tom Green with the last episode, Bridget was feeling like the rest of the girls were headed for a dark fate - Terminator: Dark Fate , that is! Much maligned at release, this entry in the Terminator series bombed in both the box office and public eye; thankfully, the girls discover throughout this viewing that it's a movie deserv...

They're podcasters! Mooooooooooooovie podcasters!!! This week, Bri woke up and chose chaos, having the rest of the girls watch 2001's Freddy Got Fingered ; spearheaded by Tom Green, the film serves as a metaphor for how film studios will unwittingly throw away millions of dollars on the hot new thing, without realizing why exactly people like said hot new thing. Join Bri, Bridget, EV, and Jae as t...

Yo, homie, is that my podcast? On this episode, Jae is making the rest of the girls hop from one neo-noir film to another as they discuss Michael Mann's Collateral . Although it was easily Mann's most successful movie financially at the time, Collateral seemed to be an entry in his filmography stuck in the shadow of giants; thankfully, this thrilling character study about a taxi driver unwillingly...

God bless you, podcast listener! This October, the girls decided to celebrate the Halloween season by talking about the scariest topic of all: America's War on Drugs. That's right, per EV's connection, this episode they're discussing Bill Duke's underrated neo-noir film, Deep Cover , starring Lawrence Fishburne and Dark Jeff Goldblum. Although it's a fascinating exploration of the futility of thos...

It took eleven episodes, but the girls have finally arrived in The Cage Zone. That's right, this time around, Bridget selected the 2018 Nicolas Cage vehicle, Mandy , directed by Panos Cosmatos. An atmospheric, hallucinogenic-addled revenge flick, Mandy juggles a variety of tones to craft an ethereal experience difficult to capture in a short podcast blurb. Frankly, it's difficult to capture in an...

Is the podcast over? No, of course not, the girls have only been going at it for nine episodes and this time around they'll be discussing Bri's new pick, The Triplets of Belleville . This French animated film from the early 00s left quite the impression upon first release and the gang is on a quest to discover whether this narrative about dedication has withstood the test of time, especially in a...

The girls may love movies, but can they spot the wolves in this picture? Considering Jae assigned them Martin Scorsese's Killers of the Flower Moon , they're gonna have their work cut out for them; a true crime story centered around the conspiratorial series of murders targeting the Osage community, Killers hides it's evils in all shapes and forms. Join Bri, Bridget, EV, and Jae as they discuss co...

If it bleeds, the girls can make a podcast about it. This time around, EV had the group watch Prey (2022), the prequel/soft-reboot of the Predator franchise. Little did they know, they were going to watch the best video game movie ever made. Join Bri, Bridget, EV, and Jae as they discuss Elden Ring builds, sucker-punching bears, and the creative bankruptcy of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

The girls wanna go to dog heaven, but, unfortunately, Bridget had different plans for them. This episode, the girls take a dive into what is widely considered one of the largest production disasters in the history of Hollywood, 1996's The Island of Dr. Moreau ; Sadly, the film itself is nowhere near as entertaining as the the horror stories that have been told about working on its set. Join Bri, B...

The girls may love Rocky Road, but do they love the illustrious career of Weird Al Yankovic? We're going to find out this week, as Bri assigned the girls the 2022 parody music biopic, Weird: The Al Yankovic Story ; this Funny or Die / Roku co-production has the heavy task of expanding a single 3-minute sketch into a feature-length film and the girls are stuck figuring out whether it manages to suc...

After fighting through the trials and tribulations of war, the girls start the cycle anew with some much needed therapy. For this session, Jae has tasked the group with the 1997 film, Good Will Hunting ; a breakthrough hit for then up-and-coming actor/writer team, Matt Damon and Ben Affleck, the crass Boston Boys show our hosts just how wicked smaht they truly are. Join Bri, Bridget, EV, and Jae a...

As the girls reach the end of their first loop through the queue, they learn that war is hell. This time, they're tasked with watching Steven Spielberg's Saving Private Ryan , which poses the question: "What if war is just a bunch of meaningless death and chaos?" Join Bri, Bridget, EV, and Jae as they discuss 360-noscoping Hitler, throwing pies, and the catch-22 of trying to make an anti-war movie...

Third time was absolutely not the charm with this one, folks. Directed by acclaimed anime director Rintaro and co-written by a member of the renowned manga collective CLAMP, X: 1999 is a film that manages to be one of the most boring and baffling films ever made - at least according to 3 out of 4 podcasters. Join Bri, Bridget, EV, and Jae as they discuss the idea of median anime, the cosmic absurd...

Through hell or high water, the girls made it to episode two! They celebrate this momentous occasion by watching what is, somehow, the most George Miller-ass George Miller movie he's ever directed: Babe: Pig in the City . Join Bri, Bridget, EV, and Jae as they discuss becoming naturalists, the difference between pelicans and storks, and Jim Cummings.

It's our inaugural episode! Which means that Brianna, Bridget, EV, and Jae are gonna start off on the right foot by stumbling their way through David Lynch's magnum opus, Mulholland Drive . Join them for discussions of boomers, lesbians, and the vicious nature of the mechanisms that keep Hollywood running.
