An All Dogs Christmas Carol

The podcast is raised to the power of three when Ada and Nia's bff Alison schools them on all things Charmed! Early 2000s aesthetics and feminist theory abound on the penultimate episode of season 1!

Charmed (Ft. Alison Kaplon!)

Nia begs for Ada's forgiveness as they dig their way out of the muck that is horror B-movie Creepshow 2! This movie has everything: misused animation, unfortunate racial stereotypes, and not one single likable character! Get into it!

Chitty Chitty Bang Bang

Spooky season is upon us! Nia and Ada talk about conspiring ghosts, rivers swollen with flood waters, and beg the Disney corporation not to sue them. Come for the murder masquerade, stay because the doors to the mansion are locked!

The Haunted Mansion

In which Nia spills the tea on her ex-girlfriend, Ada figures out why she is the way she is, and we try to suss out whether this children’s book is taking a deep dive into food deserts and water scarcity.

Regarding the Fountain

Join us as we dive deep into one of the weirdest relics of the '90's-- "Sleepover Party" starring Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen. Nia's mom, Robin, joins us for a chat about kids' content, child stardom, and PIZZA (P-I-Z-Z-A). Hope you enjoy!

Mary Kate & Ashley's You're Invited (Ft. Nia's Mom!)

Join us for part two of our descent into Scott Westerfeld's dystopian teen novel! Ada goes all dark Superman and Nia proves how little she knows about Harry Potter, and they somehow find time to talk about Uglies too!

Uglies, pt. 2

We've got a slightly shorter episode this week-- part one of two episodes examining one of Ada's childhood obsessions: "Uglies" by Scott Westerfeld. A dystopian YA novel...BEFORE they were cool B-) We debate space vs. history, the merits of dystopian novel tropes, and the problematic racial implications of a society that's based on a homogenizing surgery to make everyone "pretty." Gettin' deep on this one y'all! Tune in next week for part 2.

Uglies, pt. 1

Nia has Ada suffer through Broken Bride, a dystopian rock opera by her favorite childhood band, LUDO. There's time travel, dragons, bitchy Superman, and absolutely no subtext!

Broken Bride

On our second episode, Ada welcomes Nia to her family's favorite farcical romp, the 1955 musical comedy "The Court Jester." If you wish Robin Hood had fewer songs, more women in power, and the same number of men in tights then this (lively discussion about a) movie is for you! Come for our impression of Danny Kaye's accent work and stay for everything else!

The Court Jester

High school best friends and professional goofballs Ada and Nia guide each other through the niche pop-culture that makes them, them.
