Episode description

We're on summer break! In the meantime, we hope you enjoy this re-airing of one of our favorite early episodes.

*Spoilers Ahead* We kick off our “Normal People” extravaganza with some news items: “Parent Trap” reboot (1:20); a fan’s ridiculous dream “Glee” reboot (11:00); A Taylor Swift check-in and that “Killing Eve” cover (20:00). *Our episodes are very spoiler heavy. You’ve been warned* Spotlight on: “Normal People” book vs. TV show first impressions (25:10). Let’s talk about sex (and “Normal People”)! (0:01); money — there’s something so corrupt and sexy about it (24:19); platonic vs. romantic male-female relationships (30:00); everybody is weird (44:00); dat b, helen (45:10); friendship and attraction dynamics (49:10); Sligo, Ireland’s contribution to boy band history (1:00:30)

The Official “Timmy” Chalamet mention count: 4
