Hey Partiers! We’re dipping into our folder of outtakes to bring you another Very Special Minisode. In this episode, cut from our show on Forgetting Sarah Marshall, our snack for the day inspires a story about why Wesleigh doesn’t like beer that somehow transitions to talking vegetables threatening to burn each other alive. Enjoy!
We can pickle that! skit from Portlandia:
Veggie Tales Bunny song:
Somewhere out there you are listening to this podcast on An American Tail, and now have that adorable song stuck in your head (sorry not sorry). We ventured into our childhoods and watched the Spielberg/Bluth classic, which was much scarier than we remember. In this episode, we discuss the filmmaker's signature animation style, read some dark Pooh Bear fanfic, and hear about a formative teaching moment featuring Pokemon.

Her name was Kanga and she was trouble. She came into my office as I was about to dip into a honeypot. I liked honey the way priests love God.

Our first episode was released one year ago today, so we're celebrating with a special birthday episode! Rather than watch a movie, we reminisce about our favorite moments of the past year and what's coming up for Year 2. In this episode, we get an update on Jude Law Hair Watch 2018, meet Her Majesty Gertrude Sprinklebottom, and lots of signature Podcast Giggling™.
Timmy the Hippo flirts with Fiona on Twitter:
Fiona thinks you’re cute too, but it’s what’s on the inside that counts! Your DNA will decide if you’re the one for our little diva. Any potential mate would have to be ok w/ taking a back seat. Are you ok w/paparazzi? Most importantly, are you willing to relocate to Cincinnati? https://t.co/7XFCiYnyz7

For our final Oscar Loser pick, we watch Inception with the elusive Victoria! The 2010 film, that lost Best Picture to The King's Speech, introduced the world to the term "inception" and American women to Tom Hardy (and his lips). In this episode, we discuss mustache guards, our new nickname for Cillian Murphy, what we hope wins Best Picture this year, and glam-shaming.
Longtime friend and unofficial third host Victoria finally joins us on the podcast! You’ve probably heard us mention her…in lots of episodes, actually. You can find her on Twitter and Instagram (also follow her cute polar bear Insta @polarbear_paparazzi!)

Continuing Oscar Loser month, we found one of the most surprising titles nominated for Best Picture: 1995's talking animal flick, Babe. A trip down memory lane reminded us that this movie is a lot better — and darker — than we ever noticed as children. In this episode, Katie shares her theory for the Marvel Cinematic Universe moving forward, discover that Wesleigh knows a lot about Rugrats, and have a conversation about the awfulness of school shootings and our awe of Gen Z's response.

In this episode, we rave about TLC programming in the early 2000s, share our favorite Parks and Recreations jokes for Galentine’s Day, and discuss just how delightful and saucy Katherine Hepburn truly is.

In honor of the Academy Awards next month, we’re spending February watching Oscar Losers: Best Picture nominees that *didn’t* win. This week is Katie's pick, Juno, a standout title that lost to No Country for Old Men in 2008. In this episode we gush over the fashion at the Black Panther Hollywood premiere, discuss how creepy Jason Bateman is in this film, and Katie reveals the fun fact she shares with friends pregnant with sons.
