Hey pals,
Welcome to part two—part two! of three!—of our miniseries on the Wishbone episode "Furst Impressions." We're joined this week by comedian and actor Danny Jolles (Crazy Ex-Girlfriend), whose first comedy special, 6 Parts, came out at the end of March. It's excellent, and because Danny's cool as hell, it's also free to everyone on the ol' YouTube. Janine, Julie, and Allison all loved it, and they promise they're not just saying that because he came on the show.
The YouTube playlist we promised is here, though it doesn't yet include that Wishbone sketch, as it turns out that googling "Wishbone playboy" doesn't, ah, work. We'll update it when we find it and are feeling less scarred. We did, however, include some of the jokes and songs from Crazy Ex-Girlfriend we referenced, along with some other things. He's a delight! Watch them all, but especially 6 Parts.
Next week: JEANNE SIMPSON, MOTHERFUCKERS!
Lots of love,
Allison, Julie, and Janine

Hey y'all,

And now, our first impression of Wishbone's "Furst Impressions." The first in a three-part series. All on Wishbone's "Furst Impressions." This is not a joke, we really are doing three episodes on "Furst Impressions."  With only slightly further ado, enjoy.

The additional ado: you'll hear about this in the episode, but our next PP is Being Mr. Wickham, which you can see via Theatre Royal, which is livestreaming the show on April 30 and May 1. More details here. (If you don't watch, you'll still enjoy the episodes, we promise. )

Lots of love,

Allison, Julie, and Janine

Hey y'all,

Herein continues our coverage of the bro-ad trip shows within our purview, Men In Kilts and The Wine Show. As a reminder, last week, we started with MIK, episode one. This week brings our thoughts on The Wine Show's first episode. Next we jump back onto the Austen beat (what's next? WOULDN'T YOU LIKE TO KNOW) and in the interim we'll binge both these suckers, and then we'll do an episode on both complete first seasons. And we'd love to hear your thoughts! If you've watched either (or both), please hit us up in the Patreon comments, on Slack, via Twitter or Facebook, or however else you like. 

The next batch of episodes, y'all? We are STOKED.

Lots of love,

Allison, Julie, and Janine

Hey y'all,
Herein begins our coverage of the bro-ad trip shows within our purview, Men In Kilts and The Wine Show. Normally this would just be some jokes, but instead, here's a little rundown of how this will work. We're starting with MIK, episode one. Next week you'll hear our thoughts on The Wine Show's first episode as well. Then we drift back into Austenland for a spell to give us time to binge both shows in their entirety, and then we'll do an episode on both. And we'd love to hear your thoughts! If you've watched either (or both), please hit us up in the Patreon comments, on Slack, via Twitter or Facebook, or however else you like. Pay someone to skywrite about Matthew Rhys' hotness! You do you, boo!
Lots of love,
Allison, Julie, and Janine

Hey y'all,

This is your part two! Hopefully you've JUST listened to DCTP episode 2. If not, we think you'll have fun anyway. 

Lots o love,

Allison, Julie, and Janine

ENTHUSIASTIC LISTENING SUGGESTION, Y'ALL:

We highly recommend that you listen to this episode and the next one, which will post immediately afterward, back-to-back. This one's short-ish, the next one's not. They're of a pair and you'll enjoy both more in sequence.

Anyway, here's episode 2 of Death Comes To Pemberley, or the one where Allison tells on herself re: her teeny tiny crushes on Matthew Rhys and Jenna Coleman. 

Lots of love,

Julie, Allison, and Janine

Hey y'all,
Another dispatch from the distant past! Please enjoy our Matthew Rhys thirst (Thyrst?). Next week, you're getting TWO episodes—2 and 3 of what we're calling "Dick Tub."
 
Lots o' love,
Allison, Julie, and Janine

Hey y'all,
This week we talk to one of our very favorite critics, the great and good Roxana Hadadi (Pajiba, RogerEbert.com, The A.V. Club, etc.). She mounts a spirited defense of goth Darcy! It is a delight!
Up next: Death Comes To Pemberley.
Lots of love,
Allison, Julie, and Janine

Hey y'all,
More audio from the recent past that feels like the distant past! We have arrived, at long last, at Pride and Prejudice and Zombies. There's Pride! There's Prejudice! There are, you guessed it, people who eat brains! 
Lots of love,
Julie, Allison, and Janine

Hey y'all,
 
We're back, for real this time! Time-travel with us to January, when we recorded this episode with friend-of-the-show and costume expert Emma Fraser, who, by virtue of her whole lived life, is actually qualified to weigh in on the quality of Renee Zellweger's accent. It's a gem. Next up: Pride & Prejudice & Zombies & Matt Smith Jumping Really High When He Dances.
Next episode coming at you fast, since we're playing catch-up.
 
Lots of love,

Hey y'all,

Here's part three of our Bridget Jones's Diary extravaganza! At the end of this episode, you'll hear us say that our next episode is Pride & Prejudice & Zombies, but SIKE it's actually a BJD costumes episode. After that, though! Zombies! They're coming to get you, Barbara! 

Many thanks to the great Caroline Siede, our guest for this episode. We think it's one of our best, and that's no coincidence—it's because Caroline is very, very good at her job. 

 You can read her excellent column on BJD, the first in her series When Romance Met Comedy, over at The A.V. Club

Hey y'all,
 
Here's part two of our Bridget Jones's Diary extravaganza, The One In Which We Talk About Emergency Fuck Protocols. This is a good movie! We liked talking about it so much that there are two more proper episodes still to come, plus a bonus episode; it is many thousands of words and only about a quarter of them are "fuck." 
We hope you had a wonderful holiday/December, and that you're being kind to yourselves and using proper breath support whilst belting in your living rooms. 
 
Lots of love,
Julie, Allison, and Janine
