Hey y'all,
Please read this, if you have a minute.
Our next episode was meant to be our take on the fifth A&E/BBC PP as adapted by Emma Thompson's nemesis. As you'll hear, things had to shift a bit. Don't worry! That's coming this week! But for now, here's our 100th episode.
We recorded this Friday night the week of the election, and as you may recall, that week was a weird one, and we were all a little sleep-deprived and emotional. So this episode may not be quite as funny as you might expect, but frankly we all got swept away by how much doing this show has meant to us, not least because it gave us the chance to connect with so many of you. So forgive us our weepiness.
We also, as is our way, prepared inadequately. (It's our brand, y'all.) As such, there are absolutely some people we forgot to thank. So please just know, from the bottom of our hearts, how much we appreciate all of you and the roles you've played in our lives, especially over the last year. Thank you to every person who ever guested on the pod, everyone who's ever donated or sent us a kind note or silly gift, who's come to a live show or told a friend or (and this is the big one) reached out when we were being idiots. It has meant, and means, so much.
Here's to another 100.
Lots of love,
Allison, Julie, and Janine
Hey y'all,
Friend of the show Keenan joins us to talk about the fourth episode of the BBC/A&E adaptation of Pride and Prejudice. Without further adieu, please enjoy some wet-ass Darcy.
Take care of yourselves, dear ones.
Lots of love,
Julie, Allison, and Janine (and Keenan)
Hey y'all,
Friend of the show Scottie joins us to talk about the third episode of the BBC/A&E adaptation of Pride and Prejudice. Our feelings cannot be repressed, we must tell you how ardently we admire and love having her on the show.
Take care of yourselves, dear ones.
Lots of love,
Julie, Allison, and Janine (and Scottie)
Hey y'all,
Janine met Mr. Collins and we could not be more delighted. He's also got some shopping to do.
A few quick programming notes for our dear patrons: First, we're trying something new and doing a little Drunkcast lunch break every Friday at 1pm CST. Come hang out and say a quick hello! Second, we're going to keep doing our live watchalongs, so if you want to watch P&P episode 3 with us (a.k.a. MY FEELINGS WILL NOT BE REPRESSED), we're doing that at noon CST on Sunday. And third, uh, we're on TikTok now?
Lots of love, and please vote and wear a mask and stuff,
Allison, Julie, and Janine
Hey y'all,
This episode was recorded near the end of July (and then life happened, you know how it is) so it is most definitely an artifact of the way, way back times of before October. And not to overhype it, but Julie and I (this is Allison, by the way) both think this episode includes one of the best jokes we've ever made on the show, and spoiler, neither of us made said joke.
Anyway, we hope it's even half as fun for you as it was for us. More to come soon.
Lots of love,
Allison (and Julie and Janine)
Hey y'all,
Hey y'all,
This week friend of the show Ruth "I wrote a fuckin' amazing limerick about Murtagh in five minutes" McCormack joins Allison and Janine to talk about the Hot Pess episode to end all Hot Pess episodes (Hot Pessisodes?), Diana Gabaldon's "Journeycake." Come for the bad time traveling, stay for the SPERRRRRMS.
Patreon friends — Look for another inthebooooooks on Crowdcast later this week.
Lots of love,
Julie, Allison, and Janine (and Ruth!)
Hey y'all,
Back in February, when the world was, ah, super different, we headed to our favorite local bar, The Oasis, for a ridiculous live show. (For context, it was the week after the premiere.) We won't spoil it for you but suffice it to say it was quite an adventure and we had a blast. Thanks to everyone who came out, and especially thanks to Michelle and the lovely people of The Oasis, who are always the best whether we've got microphones with us or not. (And they are not responsible for the obnoxious ringing sound you hear from time to time, that's on us—sorry about that.)
To that end, if you've got a couple extra bucks and have ever had a pint from the O, you can support its terrific staff here.
We'll be back to talking about what's actually happening in the show next week. For now, stay safe, pour yourself a nice drink, and enjoy.
Lots of love,
Allison, Julie, and Janine
Hey y'all,
DO NOT READ THIS UNTIL YOU HAVE WATCHED SEASON FIVE, EPISODE SEVEN.
This lengthy episode of the pod speaks for itself. We had a lot to say about the show's best outing in years—and in fact, we're going to say more! On Friday night, we'll be doing a virtual happy hour (SERIOUSLY STOP READING IF YOU HAVEN'T WATCHED)...
but really it's a Digital Wake to make up for the real-life wake we promised y'all but which we can't do yet. We still will! Just not until the world is in a better place. For now, join us Friday evening (4/3) here: https://www.crowdcast.io/e/
Lots of love,
Allison, Julie, and Janine
Hey y'all,
Construction on the apartment directly above Allison's forced her to bail on this episode (though she'll do an #intheboooooooks on CrowdCast), so Julie and Janine were joined by friend of the show Amelia Buzzell! They talked about plagiarism, fuckbois, and hot ghosts.
Lots of love,
Allison, Julie, and Janine (and Amelia!)
Hey y'all,
Hello from the very strange present moment. We love you! Here's an episode we recorded in three separate apartments all within five blocks of each other. It worked out okay.
We'd say more but we figure with all the voiceover in this episode you're kind of over hearing/reading lengthy explanations about stuff you already know. In summation: KITTY!
Anyway, here's "Wonderwall." Be safe, and be good to yourselves.
Lots of love,
Allison, Julie, and Janine
Greetings ferns,
This week Julie is joined by a very special guest host, our dear pal and friend of the show Jenna Pulkowski! Both Allison and Janine were out this week, but the band will be back together soon. For now, Julie and Jenna proudly present... The Chronicles of FLMF.
Lots of love,
Allison, Julie, and Janine
Hey y'all,
Well, that one was a doozy, no? This was the first episode in quite awhile where Janine didn't see any of it at all, and we were very prepared for some earnest "oh, shit" action. Needless to say, it happened. Come for the Beardsley weirdness (Beardsley weirdsleys?) and stay for an, ah, emphatic response to that John Quincy Myers appearance.
Lots of love,
Allison, Julie, and Janine
Hey y'all,
This week we were joined by our favorite twins, Keenan and Scottie, for a rousing discussion of a good episode with a bad title. You'll hear us reference the live show a few times (it was so fun, thanks to those who came!) which we'll post down the line, but for now content yourselves with this enthusiastic cake-fueled chat (and one little bonus minisode for Patreon subscribers, the first in a series we're calling "Janine's Corner: The Janine Experience").
Lots of love,
Allison, Julie and Janine
Hey y'all,
We're back! And so is the show! And so are you! Hurrah! And you know what's not back?
THE BANGS!
Cocktails (and pamplemousse LaCroix) in hand, the drunks got together to watch and discuss an hour with a wedding, a boning montage, some very pretty but questionable woodwork, and wigs of varying degrees of crunchiness. Do we have quibbles? Yes. Are we so, so glad our special program is back? Yes. Do we make that clear by talking for TWO AND A HALF HOURS? Yes.
Want to hear more about all of the above? Com join us at our live show on Saturday (check our Facebook page!)
And by the way, it was Pusha T, not T-Pain.
Lots of love,
Julie, Allison, and Janine

Hey y'all,
Look! An actual trailer! Julie, Allison, and Janine got together to watch and discuss a much heartier preview than we've seen so far. And Julie made a cocktail!
Lots of love,
Allison, Julie, and Janine
Hey y'all,
Allison, Julie, and Janine got very holly and jolly to watch the recently shared first look at Outlander's fifth season, and of course it went in an unexpected direction. Heads up that this episode contains a fair amount of in-the-boooooooks stuff, so if you're planning to read the book before watching the season (or after, but want to experience it without any spoilers) you'll want to switch off once that starts.
Lots of love—
Allison, Julie & Janine
Hey y'all,
The three of us couldn't manage to get it together to record this episode in one place, so what you've got is Julie and Allison reacting to the Outlander season five teaser trailer, Janine reacting to the Outlander season five teaser trailer, and Allison and Julie reacting to Janine reacting to the Outlander season five teaser trailer. We hope it is at least moderately entertaining. We'll be sharing the videos themselves, in one handy compilation, in a post to come shortly for Patreon folks.
Also, please send us hotness suggestions! Twitter! Facebook! Email (podlanderdrunkcast@gmail.com)! Do your worst!
Lots of love,
Allison, Julie, and Janine
