Hey, y'all -
We know y'all know an Outlander Season 6 teaser came out. And y'all know that WE know that we had to watch it and dissect it frame by frame. Enjoy!
Lots of love -
Julie, Allison, and Janine
We've reached the end of our coverage of the 2005 Joe Wright/Keira Knightley PP. Spoiler - we love it! Allison is out this week, but friend of the show Amelia Buzzell joins us as we give this PP the Scales treatment. Pro tip: this episode contains a story told by Amelia that is so good, you need to be sitting down when she starts.
Lots of love -
Julie, Allison, and Janine
Hi, y'all -
Caitriona Balfe totally dropped a baby like Beyonce drops an album - stealthily, and with great power. So we go back to our Outlander roots and debate which Beyonce songs go with which characters and scenes from your favorite sexy time travel show. Friend of the show Amelia Buzzell joins us in our quest.
Love -
Allison, Julie, and Janine
Hey y'all,
It's the second-to-last installment of Keirafest (though there will be a bit of a wait for the next one) and we are downright giddy to be joined by critic LaToya Ferguson. LaToya joins us for a spirited conversation about the period drama movie dominance of one Keira Knightley. We also talk about her Love, Actually hat.
Also: In New York? Come join us for a panel at NYCC!
Lots of love,
Allison, Julie and Janine
Hey y'all,
Let's talk about bonnets, baby! We're just tickled to say that Emma Fraser has returned to the show for our discussion of the costumes in Joe Wright's PP (which, let's be honest, is really mostly a discussion of the green dress in Atonement.)
Also, we're so excited to say we're doing a panel at New York Comic Con! Our panel is Saturday night. If you're vaccinated, we'd love to see you. We'll also be paneling at Wizard World Chicago, but more on that later.
Lots of love,
Allison, Julie and Janine
Hey y'all,
Maybe you thought we couldn't do an hour-long episode about roughly 39 seconds of a movie. If so... why? We did a whole series of episodes about one single episode of Wishbone.
Anyway, here are our thoughts on the hottest piece of inaccurately-named hand-acting (hacting?), with *invaluable* insights from our special guest, Sarah Marrs of LaineyGossip.
Next week: costumes, baybeeeeee!
Lots of love,
Allison, Julie, and Janine
Hey y'all,
Enclosed please find our rapturous coverage of the second half of this movie, which, as the youths say, SLAPS.
Next week: ALL HANDFLEX ALL THE TIME!
Lots of love,
Allison, Julie, and Janine
Hey y'all,
Enclosed within please find our thoughts on the first half of Joe Wright's 2005 stone-cold classic Pride & Prejudice adaptation. This is a weird episode - we slipped sideways into another universe, maybe? Anyway, hands, they were flexed. Enjoy.
Lots o' love,
Allison, Julie, and Janine
Hey y'all,
Our third and (for now) final episode on Gurinder Chadha's wonderful rom-com (with songs!) lies within. We're joined by a special guest, writer/podcaster Manish Mathur! In the episode, Manish mentions an article he wrote: that's 10 Essential Films from Indian Cinema, and it's well worth your click. If you want to listen to his delightful podcast about romance in film, It Pod To Be You, you can find that here. We should be jealous because his pod name is so much better than ours, but we like listening to it (and talking to Manish) too much to be ornery.
Next up: Pride & Prejudice: A New Musical!
Lots o' love,
Allison, Julie, and Janine
Hey y'all,
We! Love! This! Movie!
Lots of love,
J+A+A
PS - No life without wife.
Hey y'all,
THIS IS A GOOD MOVIE! THAT IS ABOUT ALL WE HAVE TO SAY BUT WE'RE SAYING IT IN ALL CAPS! Please enjoy the first of three episodes on this total gem.
Lots of love,
Allison, Julie, and Janine
Hey y'all,
Here's our third and final b-road trip episode, in which we discuss the highs, lows, and WHAT THE FUCKs of Men In Kilts and The Wine Show. Mouse Rat rules.
Lots of love,
Allison, Julie, and Janine
Hey y'all,
Rakes gonna rake. Julie's off for this episode, so Allison and Janine are joined by friend-of-the-show Amelia Buzzell for this chat about the live-streamed performance of Adrian Lukis' one-man show Being Mr. Wickham. Lydia's doing very well, thank you for asking.
Lots of love,
Allison, Julie, and Janine
Hey y'all,
We're joined this week by the GOAT Caroline Bingley and our new favorite dog choreographer, Jeanne Simpson! Jeanne talks to us about her experience on Wishbone, why she loves Jane Austen, and what it's like to choreograph a dance about learning to use the shitter. It's a very special episode. We hope you enjoy listening to our conversation even half as much as we enjoyed having it.
You'll hear more about these things in the episode, but here's Edith Layton on bookshop.org, here's Gotta Dance Productions, and we'll pick a Sunday in June to have a lil' Fitzmob.
Next week: Being Mr. Wickham!
Lots o' 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,
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
