Hey there - long time no see! We are cautiously dipping our toes into remote-recording waters with a quick check-in on the lives of America's first family, the Baldwins. What do we think Alec, Stephen, Billy, and Daniel Baldwin are up to right now? Does Adam Baldwin count? We'll round up some birth announcements, take a quiz to find out which Baldwins we all are, and finish with a song to help us (and YOU) remember all of the Baldwin's names. It's easy to forget one or two!

Baldwin Talk: 2 Alecs, 2 Stephens

This week, CJ takes us on a magical journey into the Arrowverse! Just how many properties does the Arrowverse actually include? Did the show's creators intend for Oliver to have that much sexual tension with his sister? Is there anything we WOULD do for a Klondike bar? Plus, the return of Lia's accent challenge and "Arrow" Sorkin. This one's for the Boss!

Episode 98: Arrow

We're almost there! This week, Lia takes us through Ryan Murphy's 2015 train wreck Scream Queens, a show that wasn't good enough to justify its lazy writing and blatant racism. We all have great ideas for what our serial killer costumes/personas would be, a new sorority of random tv characters from shows we've watched is born, plus CJ wins the right to murder Sam and Jack at the end of the episode. It was messy!

Episode 97: Scream Queens

This week we watched Castle, a show full of men we've never seen before! We're talking about horny, ineffectual detectives, hordes of hot blondes showing up for book signings, and how much the first episode hates its female lead. Plus - one of the most baffling choices for a finale we've seen yet!

Episode 96: Castle

Episode 95: Big Bad Beetleborgs

We're here with a new episode of Spoiling Ourselves just in time for Thanksgiving, and this week we watched the recently cancelled Netflix show The OA. This Thanksgiving, don't argue with your family about politics, argue with your family about just what the fuck this show's deal was! Sam couldn't make it this week, so instead we brought in Kurt and Kaia Handsomehat to help us decipher a show that one critic called "the best, most inaccessible show on television" and boy was it. We talk about what we would personally do to #SaveTheOA, Jack comes up with the best method for traveling between dimensions, and for some reason we spend a lot of time talking about Canada. Our brains are profoundly broken, and we have this show to thank!

Episode 94: The OA (feat. Sam Gordon and Kaia Smith)

This week, we watched Quantico on the recommendation of friend and listener Erik. Erik described Quantico as "the show where everyone fucks, and there's terrorists?" Our main complaint? Not ENOUGH fucking. They could've kicked it up a couple notches.

Episode 93: Quantico

What's up you catty suburban housewives!? This week we watched the drama-comedy-soap opera -genre defying tour de force that is Desperate Housewives. Andy Lang (AKA The Dog Hat Reverse Burglar) becomes an acquaintance of the show and also the Susan of our podcast (it's like being the Charlotte of your friend group, except for a show that isn't Sex and the City). We prove how cultured we are by talking about Arthur Miller's Death of a Salesman, plus we put a new spin on a classic sex position. Which one? That's a secret that we'll take to our grave!

Episode 92: Desperate Housewives (feat. Andy Lang)

Hey there party people! We're a couple days late and one CJ poorer, but we're two guests and one billion Periscope references richer! Join us as we discuss which candy bars have nougat in them, how woke Kevin Hart is, Martin Van Buren, where inside their body a person might transport 40 lbs of heroin, and also the TV show Undeclared.

Episode 91: Undeclared (feat. Matt Braly and Sam Gordon)

We're back (again!) and going on a sitcom kick, this time with Amanda Bynes vehicle What I Like About You. We tell you what we like about each other, we express appropriate gratitude for Amanda Bynes, and we listen to the voicemails that collected in our inbox over the summer! They were mostly scam calls, but we're just happy to hear from someone (903-SPOIL-US). Listen to the whole episode to learn how you can make $10,000-$14,000 in passive income every 2-3 weeks!

Episode 90: What I Like About You

We're BACK, baby, and we're better than ever! We took a long summer break, we definitely told you guys about it, and we're ready to rock all over again. This week we watched The Big Bang Theory, the show where horny scientists need money! We've got pitches for the next Young Sheldon, we've got snake people, we've got SPOILERS FOR EPISODE 3 OF CARNIVAL ROW! God, we love Carnival Row. Bazinga!Follow us on new SHOW SPECIFIC twitter @spoilingpod, please and thanks!

Episode 89: The Big Bang Theory

This week we watched United States of Tara! We're talking multiple personalities, lush mountaintop picnics, and giant ladybugs big enough to ride. Plus, beware SPOILERS for Avengers Endgame - not for the plot, but for how hot Brie Larson looks. She's got it!

Episode 88: United States of Tara

This week we're joined by Kurt Handsomehat, who happens to be wearing a green sweatshirt, to discuss Bones! It was a crime procedural on Fox....ran for 12 seasons? You've really never heard of it? Well, ok. We talk about the show's bizarre cast of serial killers, and how the show would be different if the main character played by David Boreanaz was actually the vampire Angel. You know, from Buffy...and the spinoff series Angel? You haven't watched either, really. We're honestly shocked.

Episode 87: Bones

This week, we were dizzied and dazzled by the first and last episodes of British comedy The Thick of It. We don't know exactly what happened in these episodes, but we do know what's going on with Brexit, kind-of! We also know that:-Armando Iannucci's dialogue sounds like what Aaron Sorkin THINKS his dialogue sounds like-British television is insane and they do whatever they want over there-JWoww would make a superior Queen of England.Cheers!

Episode 86: The Thick of It

This week, your Spoiling Ourselves comrades watched The Americans, FX's period drama about KGB spies living undercover in 1980's Washington DC. Now I know what you're thinking. Another show where one character fucks another character to death? Surprisingly not! But there are plenty of murders, honeypots, and agents (of the double and even quadruple variety). Plus, we explore the show's penchant for truly bizarre music choices! Das vedanya!

Episode 85: The Americans

CJ, Lia, Jack and Sam provide the most “definitive” “analysis” of “the greatest television shows” of “all time” – after watching only the first and last episodes of each series.New episodes every other Monday.
