Ep 16 - Captain Marvel (deep dive), Captive State (deep dive), Jordan Peele's "Us" (preview)
We’re off to our usual start talking about boobs - don’t ask me why. We pull back the curtain and explain some of our inside jokes from last week when we teased Andy for kissing a 50 yr old married woman on the TWIM cruise. Andy shares his theory about Brazilian women. We discuss why we feel violated when other men peep at us in a public urinals, and wonder if that makes us homophobic.
Ep 15 - Greta (Deep Dive), Captain Marvel, Captive State, Wonder Park, Five Feet Apart.
Some apologies:
1. Poor audio quality because we were on a cruise ship
2. We reference some inside jokes because on the cruise, Andy had a fling with a beautiful 50 yr old who looks like J-lo.
3. Tardy release - sorry - it was difficult to edit and get it posted while on the cruise.
In this episode we speculate why hot women marry ugly men
We discuss whether Greta satisfies the Bechdell test
We tease 40 yr old Andy for kissing a 50 yr-old J-lo look-a-like the night before we recorded the podcast.
Warning - if you haven’t seen Avengers infinity war, we spoil this movie with no warning. But seriously this movie has been out for a year if you haven’t seen it by now you’re not going to see it.
EP 14 - How to Train Your Dragon, Greta, Captain Marvel, Madea Family Funeral
Apologies for releasing a few days late. In this episode, we can’t help ourselves, we keep letting boob jobs and sexbots enter our discussion so there was some editing to do.
Samuel L Jackson is a polarizing movie character; We do a deep dive and separate spoiler of how to train your dragon, preview of greta, mini review of Madea Family Funeral, and preview of Captain Marvel.
Ep 13 - Revisit Alita, Fighting with my Family, Happy Death Day 2U and more
Why Seth believes that the human population would go extinct in a world like Alita where sexbots could be manufactured.
Why Seth thinks that boob jobs have become so ubiquitous that having natural breasts have become more rare and therefore more beautiful
