The Boys and MINA KIMES host an episode of the Big Little Lies After Show.

Also “fry” sauce used for burgers and French fries

Yeah... that's honestly fair. Also me:

What are we talking here? Salad or Wings? With salad, I’m usually going with with a vinaigrette or Caesar. Wings: Blue Cheese all the way. Ranch is for people with broken tastebuds.

Whoa, whoa, whoa... So what's your jam? Don't tell me it's Blue Cheese?!

I went in cold other than know there was some kind of twist, though iTunes blurb and the first few minutes make it pretty clear. My first instinct was that this was more of a What Dreams May Come scenario than a Jacob's Ladder scenario, but it wasn't until they kept on doing those weird camera pans that I figured out what was really going on. This one reminded me a lot of The Secret, in that there were a few different directions that it could have gone that would have resulted in a genuinely good movie, but the director decided to do all of them at once and ended up with such a farrago that they didn't even bother finishing the CGI. Like, this would have been (or been at least derivative of) a perfectly good Black Mirror episode if the game was a way for the son to essentially ask his dead dad for advice on whether or not to commit a murder, by making a realistic simulation and seeing what he'd do in a similar scenario. But the son seems to have already made up his mind, and is pulling all of the strings in the game rather than letting them play out on their own? I was genuinely confused as to what that dynamic was supposed to be. Either way, I genuinely enjoyed the tropey video game stuff once they started leaning into it, to the point where it would probably have also worked better as a Spike-Jonze-dark comedy if they had fully gone in that direction. It also reminded of The Secret because of the heavy parent-child sex themes?! Whatever the purpose of the simulation, the kid has essentially created a very realistic deepfake of his parents having passionate sex on a boat. Like, he's coded it so his dad can't run a red light, but he can have sex with an NPC for money? This was a wild one. Can't wait for the episode.

It was actually a polar bear. I'm dead now.

True story of today: I was about to tee off a round of golf this morning when a yearling bear ran across the course, and they closed the course for the day while they tried to catch it. But I instantly remembered "Black, fight back. Brown, lay down." Thanks, June. That'll be in my head forever now, and it might've saved my life today.

Back in high school, my friend group would pick one movie each month to see together at the theater. We always kept things pretty even, but one outing I was the odd gal out and was forced into paying for a movie I definitely did not want to see (Save the Last Dance). To balm my wounds they agreed that I and I alone would pick the next month's movie. I picked this one. We drifted apart as friends before the end of that school year.

Brenden Fraser is a cartoonist in a coma, trapped in his own cartoon. Monkeybone (voiced by John Turturro) is trying to stop him by getting to Brenden's body first. Brenden must then take over Chris Katan's body but Woopi Goldberg doesnt like that. I was 11 when this movie came out. My parents thought it was a kids movie and took my sister and I to see it. it traumatized us.

Hey all! As promised, I’ve put together an updated Musical Mondays rotation. Nothing really has changed, in terms of order, except I’ve excised the people that can no longer participate. This should help eliminate the need to track people down when it’s their week. Of course, we welcome all our old friends to come back any time they can (as well as welcome new friends as they come ) Below is the current list of participants. If your name is not on the list, it’s because you have either asked to be removed or didn’t respond when I asked people to re-up. If you would like to be added (or re-added), feel free to say so Musical Mondays Cameron H TomSpanks Cam Bert Quasar Sniffer Cinco DeNio JammerLea Grudlian SlidePocket Gigi-tastic Theworstbuddhist AlmostaGhost Graham S

Have fun! Please frolic along a fjord for me!

No problem! I’ve always wanted to go to Norway!

Norway! My brother has been planning a trip for a long while and I'm gonna tag along as he takes his wife and kids. Fully expect a Scandinavian musical when I get back!

I read your post and then listened to the episode and have two words for you: Overreact much? Nicole's comments don't come anywhere near misandry, gender/ethnicity disparaging, or hate-filled. As a fellow white male, you need to get over yourself, bro.

who wants to skip 4th period and smoke some ciggies behind the dumpster next week?

This podcast is an absolute treasure. Thanks for sharing on earwolf

All these years later, every time I say the word "obligation", my heart shrinks two sizes.
