We're nearly there! And seeing as we're nearly there we wanted to give you all another chance to ask us questions, which you did! Thank you so much to everyone who submitted questions, we could not do this show without you.
Get ready to learn, nerds! This week Alex, Emily, and Levi take each other on in a comprehensive, six-season-spanning trivia show! Nothing is off limits, and most of it is obscure. We hope you enjoy AND that you learn something from our quick g
We had joked about doing this as an episode, and as soon as one of you suggested it we decided we definitely needed to. So here is Alex, Emily, and Levi discussing the Raymond Carver short story (and our namesake), What We Talk About When We Ta
So it's come to this: a finale about finales. This week Alex, Emily, and Levi talk through some of TVs best and worst endings. What makes one good? Can it even be done? Is it just that someone is always bound to be unhappy with you? All this an
We're nearing the end and thinking about that a lot, so what better way to process than by discussing the swan song. Final games, final performances, final movies. This episode has it all in its fully final glory. Listen along as Alex, Emily, a
It's no wonder why Miyazaki's films are so widely loved. They've got whimsical stories, loveable characters, and gorgeous animation. This famous Japanese animator has found international success, consistently pulls in amazing voice casts even f
It's time to stop being polite, and start getting real. And then putting it on TV. Reality TV. That's the topic. How did unscripted television become such a juggernaut in the media? What's the point? Who even watches it? Why? All this and more
Did you ever think this day would come? Us neither. I can't speak for the team, actually. I'm just an episode description. This week Alex, Emily, and Levi discuss internet memes. How did they come about? Why do they persist? What even counts? A
Awhile back we covered the Star Wars prequels, but we sorta forgot about the rest. UNTIL NOW. This week Alex, Emily, and Levi take some time to discuss a franchise near and dear to their hearts: Star Wars. Or at least the rest of the movies. Th
You kids wanna hear about a dead body? Or like, actually, yeah, pretty much just murder. This week we're talking about the pop culture phenomenon that is true crime. From old-timey murder pamphlets to the modern podcast, there is a well documen
We haven't talked about a single thing from the Harry Potter franchise this whole season, and it's time to change that! This time around we're talking about the Boy Who Lived! Harry Potter is, we think, a maybe overlooked aspect of his own fran
It's time to talk about the internet's favorite nice boy: Keanu Reeves. Bill & Ted, The Matrix, Speed, John Wick, Keanu's career is varied, fun, and loved by many. Not to mention all the rumors about his over the top, delightful kindness. But a
They're New York's finest (and arguably foine-est). This week, Alex, Emily, and Levi spend some time with their favorite fictional police team, Brooklyn Nine-Nine. It's an endlessly endearing show with a cast you can't help but love and an incr
If ever there was a time to do something different, this is it! If you haven't seen Endgame yet and do care about not having the movie ruined for you, definitely skip this one. IT'S GOT SPOILERS. LIKE A LOT. But also... spoiler for the episode:
ARE YOU READY?! Hope so. Because it's happening. From WCW to WWE, this week we're talking about that wildly popular, perpetually questioned, over the top performance art that is pro wrestling. For something so often looked down on, how does it
The gritty reboot no one asked for but (some) people love: Riverdale! It's got musical episodes, melodrama, murder, and drugs with silly names... so just about everything. It's not the Archie you know, but it's certainly something & Alex, Emily
Whether you're on it or not, you've heard of Facebook at the very least. With some peculiar but well documented origins at Harvard, this social media platform has evolved into something else entirely, a seemingly unstoppable influence in modern
Space, the final frontier. We are going THERE. Join Alex, Emily, and Levi as they venture through the stars, exploring space with Captains Kirk, Picard, Janeway, and more. This beloved, decades old franchise has had plenty of incarnations, with
You might not know him, but you probably love his work. Rob Reiner has been directing for decades, with a particular hot streak in the 80s and 90s. His beloved movies are still watched and quoted to this day, but as far as genre he's a bit all
We've been talking about this episode for awhile now, and it's finally here! Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Listen along as Alex, Emily, and Levi (but really, mostly Emily) talk about this iconic series, the movie that spawned it, and the comics tha
It's time to roll the dice! This week Alex, Emily, and Levi talk about board games (well, games, really--anything that gets you around a table). We go over our favorites, talk about what we enjoy in games, and share plenty of stories all in thi
He's been in comics, cartoons, movies and more. You know him, you love him, the Dark Knight himself, Mr. Bruce Wayne! He's got gadgets and gizmos aplenty, villains out the wazoo, and an unwaivering commitment to not killing people. Listen along
It's time to go to the happiest place on earth! Or at least talk about. This week Alex, Emily, and especially Levi share their thoughts on the magical place that is Disneyland. What is it that we love so much? The answer is... just about everyt
