I Hate It But I Love It

461: Stranger Things (Season 5, vol 1)

(Read this next part in a Vecna voice). IT BEGINS. (Now read the rest in a regular voice). This week, we're talking about the first 4 episodes of Stranger Things 5! We discuss Vecna's roundabout way of finding out what's in the zeitgeist, an unfortunately too-well-trod grief subplot that shows up again this season, and FINALLY Kat has a character in this show (but it's not who you think).

460: Stranger Things (Season 1)

In anticipation of the release of Stranger Things 5, we're returning to where it all began-- and we were both surprised by how we felt! We put some respect on Winona Ryder's name, discuss how Joe Keery is the true breakout star of the show, shake our fists at the algorithm, and freak out over the ballooning budgets of streaming TV shows. Then, Jocelyn makes up a BUNCH of songs, all varying in quality from bad to worse. Note: We recorded this episode remotely and there may be some lag. Apologies, and thanks for your understanding!

459: The Goonies

It's the final week of Listener Request Month and we're talking about The Goonies! We discuss how to (and how to not) direct child actors, a plot that's just a list of stuff that happened, praise sweet Sean Astin, and wonder which Goonie we both are.

458: The Witches (1990)

Listener Request Month continues with our #3 pick, The Witches (1990)! We discuss Roald Dahl's complicated legacy, praise Anjelica Huston for giving an amazing performance under less than amazing circumstances, and wonder why ANY of this needed to occur.

457: Stranger Than Fiction

Listener Request Month continues with our #4 pick, Stranger Than Fiction! This week, Kat takes umbrage with... everything, we delight over the enduring joys of Emma Thompson, and we ask the age-old question, "What IS this book?"
