Teen Movie Time Machine

This week on GMTD we’re kicking our way into the world of “Wendy Wu: Homecoming Warrior!” We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again, this is a Brenda Song stan podcast! And this movie really has it all. From daytime dance parties and sexual chemistry between “cousins”, to the worst dress you’ve ever seen and legitimately fun martial arts choreo! Also, sign me up for an ancient line of Chinese wa...

GMTD listeners it’s time to GET A CLUE! Here to break down this 2000s fever dream is our friend and comedian Ashley Geron! This movie is chock-full of stars (Lindsay Lohan and Brenda Song, helloooo?!), spy technologies and FASHION! Oh lord, the fashionnnnn. This movie says if your outfit doesn’t have a theme, feathers, gems, different textures, patterns on patterns, sunglasses inside, or neon colo...

Cheetah Girls, Cheetah Sisters! We’re back and so are our favorite girls (women? They look weathered). And we have GMTD veteran, and author Sarah James here to break down The Cheetah Girls 2! A film with roughly 220 plot lines, this movie finds our fabulous foursome jetting off to Spain (after a flip phone audition) to perform in some sort of music competition, that quite honestly, we still don’t...

Merry Christmas Eve Eve, GMTD family! We have a little holiday treat for you this week— that’s right, we’re talking about ‘Twas the Night with our absolute Christmas EXPERT, Jackie Gonzalez-Durruthy! This film turns a lot of tropes on their heads, and has an ACUTAL con-artist/criminal Uncle, a sleigh NOT pulled by reindeer, and a Santa NOT “living in the Ho-Ho-Ho.” It’s veryyyyy clear that whoever...

This week on GMTD the impossible is possible! We’re talking about the beloved, iconic, perfect magical Roger and Hammerstein’s Cinderella! We have THE Whitney Houston, THE Brandy, THE Whoopie Goldberg, THE Bernadette Peters… George Costanza… and here to talk about it all is our beloved, THE Phylicia McLeod! This ain’t your mothers bibbidi-bobbidi-boo Cinderella. This is belt-the-house-down, 90’s r...

Happy Hanukkah Give Me That D listeners! This week we have our very own Leila Gorstein here to break down the Hanukah classic, Full Court Miracle! This film, based on a true story, asks a lot of important questions like; is this ex-college basketball star the ghost of Judah Maccabee? Is this dreidel rap the best thing you’ve ever heard? Can you imagine Jake playing basketball? Can any team get int...

Welcome to hell!!! Jake and Katelyn are SOLO this week and thank GOD. Because this week we’re talking about H.E. Double Hockey Sticks which Katelyn feels is an experience akin to getting trampled by horses. There’s so much non-consensual sight and sound!! But, what a cast! We have a demon/devil (who can say?) played by Will Friedle having a full manic episode, Matthew Lawrence as the hot-shot hock...

Give Me That D listeners! This week we are talking about an honest-to-god movie??? Like with a plot? A storyline? *Actors*?? We’re talking about The Scream Team with our bud Matt Mayerle! When a fire wielding ghost steals the soul of a grandfather, we are thrust into a town mystery and a ghost-way station where souls come to transition. Whoa. We also have a classic DCOM bad dad, our personal ghost...

Twins, sisters and witches assemble! This week on GMTD we’re talking about the ICONIC movie Twitches with our very own sister-witch, Claire Woolcott! Exactly 17 years ago TODAY, Tia and Tamera Mowry graced our screens with the age old story of twins separated at birth who are prophesied to save all dimensions from “the Darkness.”Tamera/Camryn/Cam/Apolla takes more after sun and draws extremely dem...

Jeepers! This is one of our personal faves! Now, did we have to watch a bootleg version of this film on YouTube (shoutout to @TVMovies for doing the lord’s work!)? Yes. But it was WORTH IT to get our eyes back on Susie Q! And we’re popping our dear friend Ashley England’s DCOM cherry —what a thrill! She brings alllll the insight you could hope for. This movie has everything: a devastating car acci...

Well, well, well, this week on GMTD we have a special episode with not 1, not 2 but 3 Mowry’s- Tia, Tamera AND Tahj. We’re talking Seventeen Again with our very own mean girl Ross Knight! Sure Tia and Tamera (famous twins) don’t play twins NOR siblings, and yes Tahj is barely in the movie because he’s “animal testing” the reverse aging soap that has “15 types of lethal chemicals” in it, but still...

This week on GMTD we have a film (?) that is truly bananas! We’re breaking down The Jennie Project and luckily we have cat daddy himself Steven Tobiasz here to help us make sense of this one. We have a disturbed family that takes in a Chimpanzee as one of their children, we have a chimp in a diaper, in a gingham dress and most surprising of all taking the stand in a court of law! And no, this is n...

This week on GMTD we’re talking the Wonderful World of Disney x Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen vehicle, Switching Goals! We didn’t know how much we missed them and needed them back in our lives! Of course we had to call an all things Olsen expert and fan club devotee, Jamie Jirak, to really teach us a thing or two. Did you know MK and Ashley aren’t actually identical twins?? Remember how we all wanted...

This week on GMTD, “some of them are goblins, some of them are ghouls and some of them are a little weird” it’s Halloweentown II: Kalabar’s Revenge! We have the roommate lovers themselves Maggie Smith and Kyle Mantegna here to keep us laughing the entirety of this episode. Never have we been more grateful for a recap on a past movie because HUH?!! We have TWO stolen spell books, (which apparently...

This week on GMTD we’re talking about the movie that made us all gay: Motocrossed! And thank god we have Allison Reese here to talk about this truly hallowed film. Remember when we all wore Fox gear from head to toe and watched the X-Games? What an era! This movie single-handedly brought Motocross into the zeitgeist…. maybe! We talk all things privileged/horrible dads, sweet sibling relationships,...

TOP O’ THE MORNIN’ AND HAPPY SEASON 3 PREMIERE! This week on GMTD we are joined by Irish fangirl herself, Rebecca Munley to discuss Luck of the Irish! What a film! It’s part horror, part noir, part slapstick comedy and full USA propaganda! We have mom’s turning into leprechauns, a stolen lucky coin, cornbread and cabbage as a weapon and…… basketball?? But at the end of the day this movie is defini...

Calling all Cheetah Girls and Cheetah Sisters! This week on GMTD we have 2 of the most most badass women in the game, Tayyyslayyy and Trashley of Glitter Moneyyy, and they’re here to breakdown CHEETAH GIRLS!!! This film! This fashion! These STARS!! Not only do we have THE Raven-Symoné, we have Adrienne Bailon and Kiely Williams of 3LW and Sabrina Bryan! The fashion is straight from a “10 for 10” a...

This week on GMTD we are resurrecting one of the greatest films of all time, Life-Size! Lindsay Lohan and Tyra Banks in the same movie?! It’s too much! We have two other superstars here who shine *bright* and *far*, Eric Myrick and KoKo Bell from Get Wrecked: The Game Show Podcast, giving their very hot takes! This movie has Tyra Banks playing a brought-to-life Barbie doll and Lindsay Lohan as a f...

This week on GMTD Jake and I are joined by Basketball enthusiast Jackie Gonzalez-Durruthy to triple team Double Teamed! What a FILM! Sure we have some classic basketball movies; Hoosiers, Love and Basketball, Coach Carter, but those all pale in comparison to the sports CLASSIC. Did those movies have 6’5” twin sisters who look nothing alike but are supposed to be identical? A transphobic Wizard of...

Giddy up cowgirls and gays! This week on Give Me That D we’re talking about Ready to Run (one of the sweetest DCOM’s we’ve ever done??) with our human pixie stick Audrey Beauchamp! In this ep Katelyn reveals herself for the real horse girl she is; Cowboy Take me Away on repeat? She calls horses in a group having their “annual horse meeting?” She’s upset by animal’s talking but likes when they’re a...

Lawrence Brother lust is front and center in this weeks episode of Give Me That D! Now this is “technically” the sequel to Horse Sense but babes this is no longer a humble story about a ranch in Montana, we’ve taken to the seas! This week we’re breaking down Jumping Ship and here to help us make the journey from stables to pirate ships is Tim Murray! This movie couldn’t have more happening, it’s a...

Did you ever want to see your parents as infants? No? Us either but here we are! This week on GMTD we’re talking about the Poof Point with the one and only Ross Knight! This movie is reallyyyyy something, never thought I’d ever hear a daughter ask her grown father if he “needs to use the potty” and that’s not something you can un-see. We also talk about Ross’ hatred of children, our sadness that T...

This week on GMTD we are going on a “dream vacation”(that’s more like a fever dream) with our favorite family…. And Beans. It’s The Even Stevens Movie! And thank god we have Michael Gomez here to try and sort through what the hell this movie is!! It’s part Truman Show (???) Part prank wars and definitely is the origin story for Kamala and Doug. So buckle up because we’re going to Mandelina!

On this week of GMTD we are befuddled, shocked, and frankly upset at what has to be, hands down, the kookiest movie we’ve ever laid our eyes on; You Lucky Dog. Thank God we have Rasheeda Moore here to help us make sense of this movie. If you thought Kirk Cameron couldn’t be more appalling you haven’t seen him BECOME a dog. That’s right, he’s not only a dog psychic but somehow can channel a dog nam...

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all you D lovers out there!! This is a very, very special week on GMTD because it’s a family episode! We have our ultimate Christmas present, Claire Woolcott (sister of the pod) here to help us break down The Ultimate Christmas Present! This movie might have the WORST friend in DCOM history, A deranged yet deeply passionate weather man, snowmobiles in Los Ange...
