Why Are We Still Streaming? 07.07.2026 52:41
Streaming was supposed to make entertainment easier—but somehow it feels more complicated than ever. In this episode, we dive into the growing frustrations of modern streaming platforms, from endless subscription fees and disappearing content to confusing interfaces, password crackdowns, and the overwhelming challenge of deciding what to watch. We explore how the promise of convenience has evolved...
Why Is Summer House So Overcast? 30.06.2026 59:23
We promised that we wouldn't fall into the trap of becoming the next gay Bravo commentary podcast, but the drama is RIPE this season on Summer House . With the drama between stars Amanda Batula and West Wilson, and it's completely imploded following Amanda’s separation from Kyle Cooke. Their messy romance, conflicting timelines, and explosive reunion confrontations led to West's exi...
Welcome Back, Kotter 23.06.2026 48:01
"It's been 84 years..." Okay. Not really. But we have been on a three-year hiatus! Life threw us a few curve balls, we've made some life changes, and now we've surfaced on the other side! In our Season 5 Premiere Episode we chat about what's been going on, how things have been since we've last recorded and fill you in on all the latest updates to our podcast form...
Why Is Horror Hit-Or-Miss? 23.06.2026 46:35
"The Podcast is coming from inside the house..." If you've listened to us before, you KNOW we love horror, Halloween, and all things spooky. We invite you, if you dare, to listen in because, in tonight's episode we revisit some of our favorite (and not so favorite) horror films from the last few years since we've been "ghosted", including new classics like The Su...
Bibbidi, Bobbidi, Bullshit 25.01.2025 45:24
Here's a fun-filled bullshit episode where we're joined by our gal pal Jessica for the weekend. We decided to play a few rounds of UNO while chatting about what's on our minds and laughing about... bullshit. Hope you're all having a happy haunting season!

Reality (TV) Bites - Part 2 25.01.2025 30:56
In part two of this super fun TWO-PART Episode we continue our deep dive into a brief history of Reality Unscripted Television. Where it started, where it's been, and where we think it's going.

Reality (TV) Bites - Part 1 25.01.2025 45:07
In this super fun TWO-PART Episode We do a deep dive into a brief history of Reality Unscripted Television. Where it started, where it's been, and where we think it's going. Nomi has a lot to say about the Housewives , and there are some other nuggets about some of our other favorites. We even chat about Nomi's time on BRAVO's BlowOut in the early 2000s. Then we reminisce...
Politics as Sport 25.01.2025 32:12
We've been putting this one off for a while, only because typically you're not supposed to talk about Politics at the Table. But it's time, right? We can all be big boys/girls/non-binary folk and speak about these things in a way that can help us all to wrap our minds around what's going on. No controversy, and no confusing terms, just keeping it simple and easy. Be a good pers...
The Time of My Life... 25.01.2025 36:44
Who doesn't love Dirty Dancing? No, really. It has everything. Fantastic Music, Phenomenal Dancing, Young Love, and a few other weird story plots truly help this film stand the test of time. Nomi & Robert chat through what makes the movie so memorable to them, and how it's shaped them in different ways over the years. How has it changed your life? Or is it one you can pass on? Let us...
Are You Prepared For When Disaster Strikes? 25.01.2025 30:29
Just kidding. Everything is fine. Like it usually is... This week we're talking about Fear-Mongering in the Media . We've all heard it, or seen it, or read it. That little snippet of something intended to alarm us and ensure we "Tune In at 11" for the rest of the story. It's ridiculous, and Nomi's got a lot to say about it. The latest was this horrible, deadly, tragi...
We Are Totally Buggin' 25.01.2025 30:57
Nomi has been alluding to this episode for years now. If she's not talking about 90's Fashion, she's talking about her favorite 90's movies, or 90's music, or her life in San Francisco in... you guessed it... the 90's. We chat about a few of our favorite things from the 90's, why it was so formative for us, and why a specific OC Housewife is a terrible person who...
Foolish Mortals 25.01.2025 30:10
You know we're the biggest fans of Disney's Haunted Mansion ride, so we were getting pretty excited about the newest movie this Summer. Especially considering that it's been 20 YEARS since the first film in 2003 with Eddie Murphy, which left us wanting so much more. But... we were sadly disappointed again. Take a listen and let us know what YOU thought of the latest in the Disney Ma...
Going Runway Rogue with Patricia Hartmann 25.01.2025 30:01

Ozempic is Tipping the Scales 25.01.2025 29:49
Like much of the US, Nomi has just started on her path to a more healthful self with the help of Ozempic (or specifically in her case, WeGovy). But four weeks into it she can't find it anywhere to continue her treatment! Why is it so popular? What does it even do? And where can we get some more? Find out more about Nomi's experiences with the latest Weight-Loss-Wonder-Drug on this week&a...
Are You There God? It's Me, Nomi. 25.01.2025 30:17
We know you're not supposed to talk about Money, Politics, or Religion when you've got relatives over for dinner. So come sit by us and we'll chat through all the nitty-gritty about why religion can sometimes be frustrating, ridiculous, and even dangerous! Not all of them of course, and not all people, but you get what we're talking about. This week we've got a frank discu...
The War on Small Business 25.01.2025 29:48
Our pal Steven is back for more, and talking about his experience owning a Small Business and the struggles he's faced over the last few years. I'm sure a lot of you can relate, and maybe you have your own insight? From the decline of effective online-advertising, digital monopolies, and ghost competitors, how does one make it out? Download this and future episodes of our podcast on Appl...
They're Coming For You, Barbara... 25.01.2025 30:01
Zombies are on the loose! It seems like every horror film, show, game has some sort of Zombie Apocolypse attached to it these days. From The Walking Dead and it's multiple spin-off shows, to the latest craze surrounding The Last of Us , it seems like people can't get enough of the undead. Is it a good thing? Is it lazy? Or is it all fair game? Let's chat about re-animators! Downl...

Trans and The Art of Drag 25.01.2025 29:12
You may not know it yet, but doing drag and being transgender are NOT the same thing. Drag is a type of performance art. Transgender is a type of gender identity. As Drag Race as a competition, and it's contestants, have evolved over the last 14+ years, we've seen more and more Transgender Drag Performers compete and WIN! But you may still have some questions about what it all means, o...
The Downfall of the Influencer 25.01.2025 30:34
It's been more than 20 years since MySpace first graced our world-wide-web browsers, and it's been a social media-fueled hellscape ever since. Well, not. Not really. But gone are the days of competing for your friend's Top 8, vying for more photo gallery space, and polite conversation over the latest news headlines. We've talked about Social Media on this show before, but today...
Dreaming of a Black Christmas 25.01.2025 31:51
It's another of Nomi's favorite movies, and this time we're chatting about Black Christmas (2006). She's got a lot to say about this one, considering she watches it at least once a day during the month of December. It's on a loop more than TNT replays A Christmas Story. So grab your eggnog, cozy up by the fire, and sharpen that candy cane to an uncomfortably sharp point...
Showgirls- The Birth of Nomi 25.01.2025 49:23
It happened. It's been a long time coming, but Nomi finally convinced Robert to talk about one of her favorite movies, Showgirls. It's a deep dive into a film that many have considered to be a deep dud. But there's a lot taken for granted in this movie, despite the seemingly over-the-top performances, seedy storyline, and nudity galore. I wouldn't say the movie has heart, but i...
Horror Makes Us Happy with S.A. Bradley 25.01.2025 59:20
Robert and Nomi join S. A. Bradley , (author of Screaming for Pleasure: How Horror Makes You Happy and Healthy and host of the Hellbent for Horror podcast) on a fun and energetic riff on one of our oldest and most beautiful storytelling forms: the horror genre.
