Not to get ahead of myself for tonight, but my notes include gems like ‘Culty bullshit’ and ‘Spiritual gaslighting’

Me, a person who writes Audio Description, a few weeks ago listening to this podcast: Boy, I sure feel bad for the person who has to write AD for The Way Home. Me now: HEEEEY @mobute.bsky.social and @mauraquint.bsky.social GUESS WHO GETS TO WRITE AUDIO DESCRIPTION FOR SEASON 4? 🤪🤪🤪

Not to get on our high horse but there are maybe five distinct parts where it would be reasonable for a viewer to say, "I find this sincerely upsetting, and as a member of a society I think it is bad."

This is a legitimately demented and baffling movie that makes you appreciate the smooth paste of the Hallmark factory

We talked about the important things. Back to school. Homework burdens. Being part of the "your kids teachers" surveillance state. The Rays new stadium deal. Trump talking to space. REAL TV. And you better believe we know where all the deals are at Costco. Shout out to ClarisWorks!

I will not be there for this one, which is fine because I am not Christian and medically incapable of mingling due to a rare condition that doctors have said is similar to but not the same as "the 28 Days Later thing." I wish my comrades all good luck.

In case it gets lost in the shuffle elsewhere, we're going to be doing another live show (with call-in) this Thursday at 9pm Eastern for our $10 patrons. Special co-host Brandi Brown (and hopefully others) will finally wrestle with the 2014 film CHRISTIAN MINGLE. (Inspired by the website of course.)

One of the most fun experiences I had on a podcast many years ago was talking about Hallmark Christmas movies. I made it clear that this was not a "guilty pleasure" for me but just a pleasure, lol. theworld.org/stories/2018...

Next season, you could hit Sandy Denny warbling "time gonnnneee" with the King Tubby Roland Space Echo recursion and I would be here for it. If you do, I'll have forgotten about these sentences until I hear it, at which point I'll start cackling like a loon. Sorry, Maura.

These are the grimmest two episodes of the series, and this episode features us probably the most fed up we've been yet, but it was surprisingly fun, and hopefully we aren't being unreasonable being this frustrated.

This show gets addicted to a certain kind of sadness, like looping around to become the Other Woman in an obsessive projection onto your dad. It shows up as a stranger in your yard and where you shed your grief. Your mental health is your child's burden. There is no correction like overcorrection.

To clarify: Swin's talking about a link to the live chat for donors at the $10 tier. You can't cheat by buttering him up and becoming friends with him before 9:30. We told him he can't do that anymore. Last time, he gave out the link at the Gathering, and we had 30-50 unpaid Juggalos in the chat.

It was an honor to have Holly and Ryan back for a movie about a Buffalo Bills Big Love situation, the need to found Weckipedia, bringing back quaaludes, torturing Steve Schirripa with carrots, and of course Joey Pants's chemical chewing gum. The skin ain't right on Sean McDermott's head, folks.

there are many accidentally unsettling parts of the film, as is tradition, but one sensation that's hard to shake is that you're watching a bills polycule whose job is midwifing a stadium birth

it's a parent's job to get owned by your kids but the disparity between the so-so shoulder-roll assent to "would you like to listen to playback of an episode draft" and an ecstatic wiggling dance response to "would you like to listen to playback of an episode with guests from the fullcast" is brutal

From the Netflix movie "My Secret Santa," which is going to take too much time deciphering to do the alt text—but which is so abundant text-wise and competently executed in terms of grammar, usage and layout that it makes you wonder if AI were involved.
