0098 War MoviesThis week, dear listeners, we bring you an episode about war movies, featuring super-special guest star, Pat Wick!

This episode was recorded waaay back in October, so we’re extra excited to bring this one to you this week. It kept getting bumped out because of various reasons (i.e., “Noel did a two-part episode again”, “we probably shouldn’t post an episode about war movies on Christmas”, etc.), but now it is live in the world, and you can reminisce about the days when Melissa could still have a beer! (Or at least Melissa can reminisce about beer.)

Speaking of beer, this week we recommend either Original Sin hard cider or Bauhaus Brew Labs Schwantoberfest. Both are delicious, and the Bauhaus Brew Labs have an amazing packaging design team.

Oh, and here’s the photo that is mentioned in the episode:

0096 Party MoviesBuckle up, dear listeners, because this week, we celebrate the New Year with a selection of PARTY MOVIES! (Appropriately, this is an even-numbered episode, so the drunk is especially strong with this one.)

If you would like to drink along (hoo boy), we recommend either Yellowtail Winter Red Blend (Windy’s choice) or Kickapoo Fruit Shine sangria-flavored soda with New Amsterdam Vodka (Melissa’s choice).

(Note: Kickapoo Fruit Shine contains caffeine, unbeknownst to Melissa at the time. Melissa hadn’t had caffeine in many years. If she sounds like a rabid, drunk Tasmanian Devil at times during the episode, that is the reason. She spent the remainder of the night vaguely sick to her stomach, drunk-texting Caltech and JPL engineers until 5 AM.)

0095 Star Wars: The Force AwakensIt was inevitable, dear listeners: this week, we talk about Star Wars: The Force Awakens! If you have not seen it yet, fear not: we stay spoiler-free for the first portion of the podcast, then ring an alarm before we plunge headlong into the spoiler zone.

If you would like to drink along (and oh we were drinking), we recommend either Yellowtail Sangria or Glenlivet 12 single malt scotch. Or perhaps some sort of blue space-milk paired with self-cooking bread powder.

That’s right, we watched 24 hours of movies all in one luxurious glut, and we talk about all of them — vintage classics, restored rarities, and sneak premieres complete with celebrity encounters. And, even better, we are joined once again by awesome guest-star Meghan Murphy of Kawaii Not and Geek Merit Badges fame!

If you would like to drink along, well… we weren’t drinking for this one. We were running on pure, unbridled sleep deprivation. Choose a drink that will make you giddy and sleepy at the same time, and you’ll be there with us.
