Strange Bedfellows

Emergency transmission from the near future! Please respond by Lakehousing me a letter if you get this. It's me, Lakelyn – or McKayla, depending on when you knew me. Look, names got complicated after the collapse, alright? Anyways, I've hijacked this podcast feed (sorry, not sorry) to send you all a desperate message from 30-40 years from now: DO NOT LET TANNER GREENRING GET HIS HANDS ON ANY KIND...

Don't worry – the producers sat down with Tanner before the recording of this episode and had a constructive talk with him about how much people love the movie and how important it is to be sensitive and thoughtful about the sad parts in it. It took us a few takes to get this absolutely perfect, but we think everyone will be very happy with the final product. Music credits: "Summer Sport Rock," by...

“Hilda Doolittle” – Jack Shepherd, Strange Bedfellows The Summer of Sandra has gone extraterrestrial with 2013’s “Gravity,” or as we like to call it, “Speed 3: Speed 2 in Space” (”Speed 2” being “Speed” in a boat, and “Speed” being “Die Hard” on a bus.) We wanted to see how hard it could actually be to survive a “Gravity,” so we decided to do one on Tanner this week. It’s an audio nightmare! --- S...

Coven-up, team! Witches are real, and it's time for us to find our very own Amas Veritas! Just pray that your one true love is not Mark Feuerstein, because that dude is going to get merc'd so hard, and it's going to be entirely our faults. The scintillating Summer of Sandra continues with a pitcher of Midnight Margaritas ... and a whole lot of Practical Magic! Music credits: "Summer Sport Rock," b...

Eighteenth-century British novelist Daniel Defoe stars in this scintillating sequel to the hit movie "Speed," in which they cut all the good parts out of "Speed" and added some leeches. This week, we're focus-grouping what people want out of the movie, be-bettering a blurb, and adding a much-needed exploding tanker ship to the sensational Summer of Sandra! Music credits: "Summer Sport Rock," by 33...

Grab a pen, a bikini, and an FBI badge, because we're all going undercover this week to catch a killer at the big beauty pageant! If we can figure out how to fill out these applications, that is. Also, there's a bee in the studio and it's trying to put an end to the Summer of Sandra. Please send help!

Get out your modems, your IBM 701 laptop with the butterfly keyboard, and ... unfortunately, your hankies, because we're going to be doing an equal amount of l33t haxoring and ugly crying today. That's right, the #SummerOfSandra has a body count now ...

The epic #SummerOfSandra continues with a heartwarming, hilarious love story for the ages — starring our heroine and the Green Lantern himself — that some people who will remain nameless are too pigheaded and uncultured to properly appreciate. With Betty White. And Oscar. Don't forget to use the hashtag #Meatballs! Music credits: "Summer Sport Rock," by 331 "Motivational Inspiring," by Clean Mind...

Pop Quiz, Hotshots: How many buses explode in the movie "Speed," starring Sandra Bullock, Keāno, and Dennis Hopper from "Speed"? We'll do our best to answer, but we're pretty busy trying to keep this podcast humming along at just over 50 miles an hour, because if we slow down for even a second, things could go horribly, horribly ... Oh God. Music credits: "Quiz," by Positive Sound "Speed," by Loop...

Should you,...

We dodged a real bullet this week (well, not Tanner—he was killed by his Looper closing the loop) when we DIDN’T watch 1995’s “Nine Months” and instead watched 2002’s “Two Week Notice” during the continuing frenzied mania that is Hugh Grant’s Vernal Dance (#HGVD). But that’s not our ONLY viral cause this week, because our intrepid young investigators—Tyson Lamborghini and Stryker Marshall—have blo...

Hailed as the “Superman: Dawn of Justice” of its day, our film this week was the first to unite three separate cinematic universes in one story-telling masterpiece. Never before, and to the day of this being written never again since, has a film DARED to invite the “City of Angels” AND the “Little Nicky” narrative universes into its OWN overarching cinematic superuniverse. Really incredible stuff....

It’s more role-playing than not this week as we discuss this classic "squeakuel" to "Four Weddings and a Funeral" and try to perfect our Owen Wilson impressions, which somehow get worse by the end of the episode. But you know what they always say: "Size matters, but in the spy world, it’s reversed!" Special thanks to Baby Bee Carys for the theme music! Subscribe to our Patreon at Patreon.com/BSCCP...

As we all Benjamin Button backwards through the great sweep of human achievement, from the futuristic AI-enhanced space operas that will dominate the next century to the expressive cave paintings that started it all, let's pause for a fleeting moment to appreciate the absolute pinnacle of it all: Ang Lee's 1995 film Sense and Sensibility (which would later be adapted into a novel by Jane Austen he...
