Traumatized Episode 71 - Earth Girls Are Easy 22.06.2020

What is the perfect movie, and why is it a PG-rated, candy-coated late '80s musical-slash-sex comedy starring Oscar-winning actress and almost-Olympian Geena Davis entertaining Jeff Goldblum, Damon Wayans, and Jim Carrey as horny fur-covered aliens who crash landed in her pool in search of babes. Join us as we ask a lot of questions about Earth Girls Are Easy.   suggestions@ traumatizedpodcast.com...

Traumatized Episode 70 - Waterworld 12.06.2020

Sail away with us as we dive into the wet and wild disaster that is Waterworld. From babies with back tattoos to pirates on jet skis to Kevin Costner drinking his own urine, this movie has it all, yet, regrettably, also has nothing you want.   suggestions@ traumatizedpodcast.com Instagram+Twitter: @ traumatizedcast facebook.com/traumatizedcast  

Traumatized Episode 69 - Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves 21.05.2020

It's our 69th episode, so we're making it a sexy one as we discuss one of the most erotic Robin Hoods ever committed to celluloid, second only to the smokeshow that is Disney's fox version. Everything we do, we do it for you as we discuss Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves.   suggestions@ traumatizedpodcast.com Instagram + Twitter: @traumatizedcast facebook.com/traumatizedcast  

Traumatized Episode 68 - Red Dawn 07.05.2020

Traumatized Episode 67 - Blackbeard's Ghost 13.04.2020

This episode comes to you from the Before Time, when we felt bold enough to make predictions about the coming weeks that turned out to be not that far off. So while you're stuck at home, don't read any spellbooks you find out loud, because you might end up socially distancing with a pirate ghost who drinks all your booze and is almost impossible to get rid of.    suggestions@ traumatizedpodcast.co...

Traumatized Episode 66 - Enemy Mine 18.03.2020

Social distancing may be our new reality, but as least we're not as socially distanced as the protagonists of this week's movie: Dennis Quaid and a genderfluid lizard alien who are marooned for years on a desolate planet until one of them dies in childbirth and leaves the other to parent the child. Take a wild ride with us from the comfort of your home as we discuss Enemy Mine.   suggestions@ trau...

It's a rite of passage for teens to keeps secrets from their parents, like when they sneak out to go to a kegger at Porkchop's lake house, or dump the corpse of their babysitter and fake their way into a job at a fashion house while embezzling a small fortune. You know, teen stuff. We're discussing the very relatable 1991 comedy, Don't Tell Mom The Babysitter's Dead.   suggestions@ traumatizedpodc...

Traumatized Episode 62 - Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer 06.01.2020
