  • Hey there lovely listeners! It's Thursday, so I thought it was fitting to release the Grey's Anatomy bonus segment today. We talk about two things that Grey's has become very well known for - devastating deaths and messy relationships.

    We had a few more topics slated for discussion, so we will be doing another round of Grey's Anatomy discussion once Candi has completed her watch of the series. As you'll hear at the end, she's in Season 11 and she's all in on seeing this through to Season 20. So stay tuned for that!

    Thank you for listening. Friendly reminder - we drink, we know things, we use adult language, and we have a great time.

  • TGIF! Our coverage of The Ones Who Live concludes this week with our chat about the finale. We LOVED it! We were thrilled to see the Grimes family get a happy ending. We talk about Jadis and her disturbingly detailed dossier, unpack our thoughts about the Echelon briefing, and of course we swoon over the family reunion.

    This series was such a fun watch and truly felt like a love letter from Danai Gurira and Andrew Lincoln to their fans.

  • Happy Friday! Our coverage of The Ones Who Live continues this week with our discussion of Episode 5, "Become." We enjoyed the episode and were SHOCKED, but delighted by the return of Father Gabriel (Seth Gilliam) to the TWD universe. We share all of our favorite moments from Richonne's second honeymoon episode - including the big proposal at the end. Candi very graciously fills in a few background gaps for me on the past relationship between Gabriel and Ann/Jadis. And of course we talk about Jadis's final character run and whether or not we understood all of her choices. We close with our wishlist for the finale. In sum, we want cinnamon roll sweetness and will not be here for any bittersweet endings. This is a love story and we want a happy ending for this beloved couple. And a reunion!

  • Happy Wine Wednesday! Candi is back to discuss episode 4 of "The Ones Who Live" written by the multi-talented Danai Gurira. We have a scene heavy discussion this week as we discuss the multiple reckonings for Richonne - Michonne's disappointment in her reunion with Rick and the reckoning for the couple as a whole.

    Of course we unpack Michonne's long awaited revelation to Rick about their son, RJ. And we talk about how the couple ultimately gets on the same page by being vulnerable and sharing how their trauma has impacted them. This was a spectacular episode and Danai exercised the utmost love and care as we navigated this important turning point for Richonne. This episode had us all in our feelings, y'all. Especially as Rick opened up about how his time with CRM made him lose Carl all over again. Those flashbacks!

    We close with a little bit of speculation about what's to come. I run a few of my tin foil theories about the presence of "A"s by Candi and whether they have a larger meaning for the spinoffs and main series as a whole.

    We had a few audio issues in this episode, so apologies for that! Riverside was a bit glitchy this week.

    As always, thank you SO much for listening! This is your friendly reminder that we drink, we know things, we use adult language, and we have a great time.

  • Happy Wine Wednesday! Candi is back this week to discuss episode 3 of "The Ones Who Live" entitled "Bye."

    The writers told us to let go of a precise timeline and we discuss whether we're on the same page with that decision. We're three episodes in and hadn't yet talked about the opening sequence and theme song, so we share our reflections on that. I ask Candi how the show opening compares to the other spinoffs. We had a LOT of thoughts about Rick's big escape plan and loved every bit of Michonne's reaction to it.

    We've seen two women visit Rick in his apartment so far and neither one of them is Michonne. We talk about the two women - Jadis and Thorne - who have visited Rick in his new home and whether or not we trust them. Spoiler alert: we don't.

    Thanks so much for listening! We will be back next week to discuss episode 4. Friendly reminder - we drink, we know things, we use adult language, and we have a great time.

  • Happy Wine Wednesday! Candi is back this week to discuss episode 2 of "The Ones Who Live" entitled "Gone." We talk about Michonne's journey to find Rick and appreciate that despite encounters with human dangers like Negan and the Whisperers in the main series, we find her still open to new people. We also discuss her decision to withhold information about RJ from Rick.

    Of course, we had to celebrate the amazing performance by Matthew Jeffers as Nat. We praise Jeffers' performance and talk about his amazing chemistry with Dana Guirira, which is likely due to the two having prior acting history together. Speaking of chemistry, we loved all of the kissing and reconnecting between Richonne in this episode. And we unpack our frustration with the character who threatened our favorite couple this week - Jadis, the wild card.

    Thanks so much for listening! We will be back next week to discuss episode 3. Friendly reminder - we drink, we know things, we use adult language, and we have a great time.

  • Happy Wine Wednesday! Candi and I kick off our coverage of The Ones Who Live this week with a discussion of the premiere episode. We enjoyed it and we are so happy that the writers didn’t make us wait several episodes to see our favorite couple on screen together again.

  • My amazing conversation with Jay Giles about The Wire concludes with a bonus segment in which we reflect on the series as a whole. We share which season was our favorite and why. And of course I had to ask Jay about the "controversial" second season of the series and whether or not he enjoyed it. We talk about satisfying character deaths, our favorite moment of comeuppance, and other memorable character introductions beyond the pilot.

    Thanks so much for listening!

  • Happy Wine Wednesday! In anticipation of the premiere of "The Ones Who Live" AKA the Richonne spinoff, Candi is back this week to discuss everything we love about this ship. And on a programming note, we will be doing episode-by-episode coverage of "The Ones Who Live".

    For this very special Richonne episode, we start off by talking about the characters individually and what we like so much about them. From there, we get into all things Richonne. We share the moment when we first started to see the romantic potential for the duo, the buildup to the pair becoming official, and where the writers left them at the end of The Walking Dead. Of course we talk about the Grimes family as a whole and some of our favorite moments with them and we each share our favorite Richonne episode.

    Friendly reminder - we drink, we know things, we use adult language, and we have a really great time. Thanks so much for listening!

  • My conversation with Jay about the pilot episode of The Wire continues! If you haven't listened to part 1 of our conversation, check it out here. In this final part of our discussion about the pilot, we talk about what worked well in the episode and whether we would change anything about this well executed hour of television. We examine whether The Wire is copaganda and close out the discussion with the thirst segment. I asked Jay to do some thirst-inspired casting for the show.

    Thank you so much for listening! There will be a new episode next Wine Wednesday and keep an eye on your feed for the bonus segment in which Jay and I share reflections about The Wire beyond the pilot.

  • Happy Wine Wednesday! Jay Giles joined me this week for an amazing discussion about the pilot episode of one of the best series of all time - The Wire. This is hands down one of my favorite discussions on the podcast and I think that's reflected in the run time for our discussion. To spare you one very long episode, we've broken the chat down into three parts. Enjoy part 1 and keep an eye on your feed for part 2 tomorrow.

  • Happy Wine Wednesday! Lauren returns to the podcast this week to discuss the Barbie movie. We talk character arcs and our surprise about the film being named Barbie and featuring so much Barbie . . . and Ken. That said, there's no denying that Ryan Gosling was the perfect fit for the role. And Margot Robbie was born to play Barbie. it's WILD to think that anyone other than Robbie was ever considered for the role - looking at you, Amy Schumer.

    Congrats to America Ferrara and Ryan Gosling for their Oscar nominations! Of course we talk about Ferrara's big speech and whether or not it worked for us. Her delivery of the speech was riveting, but we both wish that Gerwig had trusted her audience a little more with the film's messaging.

    This movie was such a visual delight, so of course we get into favorite Barbie outfits and favorite set from the film. I also asked Lauren to tell me who her Barbie would be and what she would wear. We also applaud the film's inclusiveness, but would have loved a lot more LGBTQ+ representation.

    Thanks so much for listening! Friendly reminder - we drink, we know things, we use adult language, and we have a great time. Find and follow Lauren on social media here.

  • Happy Wine Wednesday! And welcome to 2024. New podcast episodes are underway, but in honor of the The Bear's well deserved awards at the Golden Globes, I wanted to revisit my discussion with Rev. Solomon Missouri about the amazing second season of this series.

    We unpack character development, the amazing guest stars, and of course we talk all things "Fishes". As always, Solomon is funny and insightful - I could listen to him talk about this series forever!

    Thanks so much for listening! And be sure to support Solomon on social media - if you are not following him, you are absolutely missing out. You can find everywhere Solomon is located on social media here. And find his ICONIC thread and words of wisdom for Dell Curry here.

  • Happy Wine Wednesday! Candi is back and we are unpacking the pilot episode of one of my favorite series of all time - The Tudors.

    Y'all know how I love a period piece, so there are some fun historical facts sprinkled throughout the episode. Special shoutout to Alison Weir - my go to author for all things Tudor dynasty. You can find all of her work here.

    Candi and I share impressions of the pilot as an introduction to the series, the brilliance of Jonathan Rhys Meyers as Henry VIII, and we demand justice for the many, many women who had the misfortune of being married to Henry.

    If you haven't watched this series, we are here to tell you why you should get into it. It's a perfect holiday binge.

  • Happy Wine Wednesday! Candi returns to discuss a show that you should absolutely be watching - the Starz network series Raising Kanan. The show's third season premieres on Friday, December 1, so we thought this was a perfect time to revisit the pilot and hopefully introduce folks to their new favorite binge watch!

    As always, we discuss opening scenes, memorable character introductions, and there's no way you can discuss Raising Kanan without saluting the amazing work by the show's wardrobe department.

    It brought me so much joy to celebrate this talented cast, particularly the extraordinary Patina Miller and Mekai Curtis. Y'all know I love a series where female characters get to be messy, villainous, sexual, and just generally layered and complicated. Miller's Racquel Thomas is right up there with Gemma Teller-Morrow (Sons of Anarchy), Cersei Lannister (Game of Thrones), and Annalise Keating (How to Get Away with Murder) when it comes to fictional female characters whose rights and wrongs I support and delight in watching.

  • Happy Wine Wednesday! There are few things that will happily get me out of my love of shows featuring the Roman empire and one of them is a show that lets women be messy and complicated. In that spirit, Candi is back this week and we are talking about the pilot episode of the NBC series "Good Girls" starring Christina Hendricks, Retta, and Mae Whitman.

    We talk about our introduction to Beth, Ruby, and Annie and the show's surprising premise around three women who decide to rob a grocery store. I had a fun time asking Candi to answer some random prompts inspired by the pilot, which included us talking about the most ridiculous thing we've ever done to conform with beauty standards inspired by Beth's awkward waxing scene. We also talk about whether we are the Beth, Ruby, or Annie if we decide to start a criminal enterprise and I ask Candi whether the women were hustling backwards when they decided to only take money from the grocery store. I mean - it's a grocery store! Wouldn't you grab some steak or seafood? In this economy even eggs and butter are at premium prices!

  • Happy Wine Wednesday - and happy birthday to me! I knew this episode was being published on my birthday, so I wanted to discuss the pilot of one of my favorite series of all time - Spartacus.

    Candi is back and she very aptly notes that I spend a lot of time thinking about the Roman Empire. This time around we are talking gladiators and slave rebellions in this series centered on its namesake, who was brilliantly portrayed by both Andy Whitfield and Liam McIntyre.

    As we did with our discussion about the Rome pilot, I sprinkle in a few historical pointers here and there. And as always, we talk character introductions, what worked well in the pilot, and we tell you why you should continue on with the series. We celebrate Spartacus for giving us complicated, messy female characters. We also salute the fight choreography and Andy Whitfield's brilliant ability to make Spartacus's strength and fighting ability completely believable despite not being the most towering figure.

    Friendly reminder - we drink, we know things, we use adult language, and we have a great time.
