Send a text This week on Mummy Dearest Podcast, Zach and Sloane unwrap 1998's romantic mystical fantasy film: City of Angels . This movie has it all: Nicolas Cage as an angel named Seth, Dennis Franz body surfing nude, dumpster babies, and a young Nick Offerman. It's a film that could not and would not be made in 2024. It's too wacky, too silly, and too heartfelt. Grab a pear, say a prayer and tune in to this week's episode of Mummy Dearest Podcast! Support the show Visit MummyDearestPodcast.com...

At one point we counted over 14 buckles on his top half alone! That's a serious commitment to being buckled. We also touch on topics like: post partum depression, accidentally microwaving a child, exploding vampiric children, hookah lounges, hair accessories and Josie Maran!

Send a text This week on Mummy Dearest , we unwrap the season 2 finale of the greatest show of all time: The Gilded Age. The finale was a perfect bow on top of a beautiful gift of a season. It had everything we've come to love and expect from The Gilded Age: Duke drama, fake friendships, Nathan Lane's southern accent, crossing the street, and Agnes being angry. What we didn't expect was a caked up George Russell sauntering around his office with skin tight clothes. Nor did we expect where the Du...

Send a text This week we're unwrapping the penultimate episode of season 2 of "The Gilded Age". Our time has almost come to an end and we are as upset as a Duke eating a potentially spicy soup. This week gave us all the things we've come to love about "The Gilded Age": back cancer, floral arrangements, luncheon, 5 minutes of CGI fireworks, Bertha and George in their bedroom, scams, and another sister hug between Agnes and Ada. There are so many things unfolding with only one episode left! Will M...

Send a text This week on Mummy Dearest Podcast we unwrap Season 2 Episode 6 of "The Gilded Age!" Literally this was one of the best episodes of TV to grace our televisions in a long time. We were laughing. We were crying. We were learning about patents in 1877! There are twists, there are turns and sadly there are backaches that aren't just backahes! Aunt Agnes leaves her house TWICE in one episode AND George Russell shows us his soft side. He is the hottest robber baron HBO has ever seen and if...

This week we got a peek at the new Met (which methinks George has paid to complete but that remains to be seen...), we get a peek at the Duke, and we get to see 90's wicked stepmother level line delivery when Bertha steals the aforementioned Duke from her past lady maid / rival. Can you say DRAMA? The most low level drama of all time but still it's DRAMA and that's all we ask for! Thi...
