Do you and your friends speak in movie quotes? Do you trade Spongebob memes back and forth with your loved ones? Do you have to rely on the ”Are You Still Watching?” message to let you know it’s time to bathe and stop procrastinating? If you answered yes to any (or all) of these questions, come hang out with us every other week! Media can play a huge role in shaping who we are. Sometimes it makes us idolize Jeff Goldblum as a sex symbol. Sometimes a lack of representation makes you feel invisible. As hosts, siblings Carie and Ross will analyze this phenomenon by breaking down a favorite movie or television show and how the sights, sounds, and messages of media have followed our generation throughout our lives. So pour your favorite beverage, relax, and explore how our shared experiences with movies and television messed us up as a generation. There will be laughter, there will be sadness, and THERE WILL BE discussions about homosexual subtext in children’s animation. Theme Song by Tune Tank: https://tunetank.com/tracks/5611-vacation

No taglines, no jokes, no laughing matter this week, lil onions. Today we are talking about a very important documentary, One Survivor Remembers, an HBO documentary from 1995 about the harrowing story of Gerda Weissmann, who survived the scourge of Nazi Germany during what were supposed to be the best years of her young life.
While this is normally a comedy podcast, this is a very serious subject, and we encourage you this week to spend some time clicking through the links provided below about the Holocaust, about fascism, and about what you can do as a private citizen to combat the rise of abject evil.
