Lindsey introduced Leah to another MCU film, and Leah's mind was opened and suddenly all those memes made sense! We get into the importance of Zeppelin's Immigrant Song to this film (and to Lindsey), our love for Taika Waititi, the badassery of Tessa Thompson, and how adorable it is that Sir Anthony Hopkins reprises his role from Legends of the Fall in this movie. Tangents include ringtones, if we could crush 6,000 calories in a day, and who wins in the battle of the Fitbit sleep scores. Sun's g...

If you love the Beatles (like Leah), you'll love this movie (unlike Lindsey). 2019's Yesterday is the story of a struggling musician who wakes up in a world where the Beatles don't exist. We discuss all the things, including: Would the Beatles' music resonate today or are we too obsessed with K-pop? Is the love story shoved into this film like a fat guy in a little coat? What celebrity would you let into your house if they just showed up? And is that Ed Sheeran GOT cameo when the show jumped the...

It's The Big Chill for our generation! We watched 2004's Without a Paddle, starring darlings of the silver screen Matthew Lillard, Seth Green, and Dax Shepard. And we did talk about the movie, but we also got a little sidetracked with memories of picking out VHS at the video store, adoration for Allison "West Wing" Janney, bird people (Lindsey's kind) vs cat people (Leah's ilk), Krav Maga drills, and our teeny tiny obsession with Dax Shepard's podcast Armchair Expert (if you're not listening, ge...

It's a hero's journey! Lindsey and Leah share their feelings and fears about 2004's stoner comedy Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle. Basically, it's all animal semen and marijuana and battle shits. Leah reveals why White Castle burger patties have holes in them (trade secrets!), and Lindsey shares the story of the one and only time a guy told her she had a nice ass (so sweet!).

Elisabeth Moss for the FUCKING win. As we discuss our first times with Shirley (2020), we get into the madness of playing the happy little housewife, how the film inspired Lindsey to write (!), our utter adoration of Shirley and Stanley's relationship (hot lips emoji), and how it feels to be a woman who speaks the fuck up (knife emoji).

Horror. Absurity. TEETH. We break down our first times with this film about a young woman who has an impressive case of vagina dentata (ie, a toothed vagina). Get comfy 'cause it's about to get really uncomfy as we talk about vag and peen and female bodies and first-time fantasies and sex ed and visits to the OBGYN and the pure power of the pussy.

Our queen Melissa Powers joined us to discuss this dreamy horror-action romp starring Nic Cage. Mandy is so many things: sweet romance, culty drama, death, destruction, demon-drug bikers from hell. Not to mention the CHEDDAR GOBLIN! The film is weirdly sexual, so the conversation gets weirdly sexual. We dug it.

In which Lindsey both learns Leah a few tidbits about Beta Israel and confesses that she can't tell time. Why are we here? What are we doing? Can Chris Evans only play the good guy? Tangents include gross-out sports injuries, if we could 127 Hours ourselves out of a bad situation, and the location of Lindsey's true north (hint: it's Leah).

Shit gets weird and culty AF in this 2016 horror-thriller starring Logan Marshall-Green (wearing the shit out of the beard!), Tammy Blanchard (wearing the shit out of that white dress!), and Michiel Huisman (XOXOXO). And Lindsey actually liked it. She liked a movie that Leah picked. She said it disturbed her. CAN YOU BELIEVE IT!?
Jun 03, 2020•1 hr 8 min•Ep. 26
Lindsey offers up to Leah Denis Villeneuve's Prisoners so that together they may suckle at the teats of pain. Nursing on that agony milk! Hugh Jackman is hugely jacked, sweet Jakey G plays the dark detective who always gets his man, Melissa Leo is terrifying and unrecognizable, and Viola Davis crushes as usual. And Paul Dano… whoa. Just whoa. There's a lot to unpack with this one, including a few boxes of venomous snakes.
May 27, 2020•1 hr 19 min•Ep. 25
This week Leah introduces Lindsey to the 2006 horror flick The Descent. This movie has everything: a cast chock fulla women, death-defying cave stunts (accompanied by plenty of grunting and groaning), fucking MOLE PEOPLE, and an inexplicable pool of blood. Not to mention the twist ending that's - wait for it - no longer a twist. What the fucking fuck?!

Youts! We watched the 90s comedy My Cousin Vinny, and we had so much fun! Between Ralph Macchio's dirt lip, Joe Pesci's killer performance as the titular Vinny, and everything about Marisa Tomei (the hair! the clothes! the attitude!), how could we not? Join us as we break down our first times with this blast from the past.

We found the one asshole left on the planet who hadn't seen Titanic, and we popped his cherry! Mike is this week's movie virgin, and he talks us through why (WHY?!) he'd never seen the film, as well as his feelings for Leo (the love!). We also discuss whose sweaty hand is sliding down that steamy car window, Billy Zane's cartoonish portrayal of Cal, the (interesting…?) pairing of Kate and Leo, if Timothée Chalamet is the next Leo, and so much more.

Lindsey forced Leah to watch Terms of Endearment because she's a terrible person who delights in making her friends sob into their popcorn. And after all that trauma, Leah feels the only bright spots in this show are Shirley MacLaine and Jack Nicholson's flirtation and eventual hookup. Other than that, we discuss Debra Winger in that deathbed scene, the failed sequel (The Evening Star), and relationships. Relationships can be a real bitch, man.

Lindsey and Leah discuss their first times with this fantastical tale of a customs agent who can smell human emotions. Border is the story of a woman who is searching for the truth about herself and coming to grips with what that truth means. But also this movie has one of the most incredible and mind-blowing sex scenes EVER.

Welcome to another VERY SPECIAL EPISODE! And we're talking about…optics! That's because we watched The Invisible Man (2020) starring Elisabeth Moss. This movie left us with so many questions (can Aldis Hodge BE any hotter?), and we had some…interesting reactions to the film. We also dig into our quarantine watchlists, including long-lost loves Jackass and Supernatural. Join us!

Hey, people! Go check out The Memory Distillery Podcast with our friends John and Anthony. They invited us over to talk about Sixteen Candles and it. was. awesome! Lindsey, Anthony, and I had a great conversation about this John Hughes classic starring Molly Ringwald, Anthony Michael Hall, and (swoon!) Michael Schoeffling as Jake Ryan. You can find them on Instagram and Twitter @TMDpod. Find them, listen, and subscribe! Do it! The Sixteen Candles episode is in all the places, including: Apple Po...

It's our first time with a Bong Joon Ho film! And… we loved it! This episode gets a little weird because, well, Snowpiercer is kinda nuts. We're talking cannibalism, train obsessions, that moment with the fish, Tilda Swinton's fabulous turn as the creepy AF Mason, our love for Kang-ho Song's Nam, Chris Evans' performance, and on, and on, and on…. Like that damn post-apocalyptic train ride.

Pop quiz, hotshot! There's a bomb on a bus.... Lindsey and Leah discuss the 1994 action flick Speed. And they cover all your burning questions: Is that bus jump realistic? Is any of this movie believable? Has Keanu ever been hotter? Is Sandra Bullock a good actor? Where the heck is Pacoima? There are also a few detours into Speed 2 (barf), Showgirls (!), Hustlers, SNL's the Californians, and more.

It's gym-nasty! Lindsey and Leah share their thoughts and feelings on this raunchy comedy starring Melissa Rauch as a foul-mouthed ex-gymnast. And just when you think it can't get any more awkward, Lindsey dives deep into her love of gymnastics and her weirdly specific obsession with Sebastian Stan's diet and physical fitness. Obsession - it's the spice of life!

Eric Bana has never looked better. Also, Tom Hardy! Tom Sizemore! Ewan McGregor! So. Many. Dudes. And that's basically it for Leah's take on one of Lindsey's favorite war movies. We also share our favorite moments from this film and our thoughts on warfare in general. It gets... intense.
Feb 24, 2020•1 hr 20 min•Ep. 15
It's another VERY SPECIAL EPISODE. This time we watched 1917, which (barely?) lost to Parasite for Best Picture at the 2020 Oscars. We share our immediate post-watch reactions and cover topics ranging from Leah's love for Fleabag's hot priest (Andrew Scott) to Lindsey's fave war movie (hint: it's not Forrest Gump). And of course, a discussion of this film wouldn't be complete without a GOT tangent.
Feb 17, 2020•57 min•Ep. 14
This episode goes one louder! We're turning it up to eleven as we discuss the brilliant 1984 mockumentary This Is Spinal Tap. We cover all the important questions... Who's hotter: Nigel, David, or Derek? Fave Tap tunes? Most quotable lines? Are we all at risk of spontaneous combustion? And, most importantly, can you dust for vomit?

It's the summer of 1976 and Viv's virginity is burning a hole in her pocket. Join us as we discuss the coming-of-age flick Slums of Beverly Hills, starring the incomparable Natasha Lyonne. We're talkin' 'bout boobs, periods, and (finally!) our first times with S-E-X, as well as the fabulous performances delivered by Marisa Tomei and David Krumholtz in this film.
Feb 03, 2020•1 hr 9 min•Ep. 12
It Follows! And it fucks you...to death! Leah and Lindsey break down their feelings and fears about this moody flick featuring (gasp!) a sexually transmitted ghost/demon/something-wicked. And brace yourselves for all the sex talk: virgins, STDs, orgies, unwanted pregnancies. This conversation may actually be more terrifying than the movie.
Jan 27, 2020•1 hr 27 min•Ep. 11
We're bustin' into the MCU with Lindsey's favorite of the bunch. And despite her avoidance of most Marvel films up to this point, Leah finds that this movie's got everything: hot guys, hot guys, and more hot guys. We cover all your burning questions: Is Cap still carrying his V-card? Why does Sam Wilson have a flat iron? And how dumb was Hydra's master plan?
Jan 20, 2020•1 hr 25 min•Ep. 10
In this VERY SPECIAL EPISODE, Lindsey and Leah share their initial reactions to 2019's Little Women. And do not fret because they also discuss their thoughts (and feelings) on the 1994 film version of Louisa May Alcott's novel. It gets... intense. Will Timmy Chalamet make it out alive?
Jan 13, 2020•1 hr 19 min•Ep. 9
Lindsey didn't know about the three seashells! That's it. That's the episode. Well, that and a few tangents, including what Wesley Snipes is most known for (legal issues? Blade?), Sandra Bullock v Lori Petty, and FMK with your favorite Seinfeld characters.
Jan 07, 2020•1 hr 5 min•Ep. 8
Boston! DiCaprio vs Damon! Jack Nicholson! Marky Mark! Microprocessors! We cover it all in our discussion of Scorsese's The Departed, one of Lindsey's favorite films and a film that Leah had managed to avoid until now.
Dec 31, 2019•1 hr 18 min•Ep. 7
Lindsey and Leah turn up the teen angst (how very!) and ask the important questions about 1988's Heathers: Is Christian Slater too scrawny? Does Winona Ryder have the range? And *gulp* did this movie about violence in school age well? Corn nuts!
