119: CATS

January 06, 2020 09:05 - 42 minutes - 32.4 MB

118: A Boy's Own Story

December 02, 2019 18:00 - 1 hour - 45.2 MB

In this episode, Mic discusses the criminally overlooked gay classic A Boy's Own Story. He speaks at length about the importance of the first non-apologetic coming out novel...and at length about the importance of using lube during anal sex. Equally important! Follow and Subscribe!

In this solo episode, Mic reclaims "yo", pontificates on James McAvoy's cock, and compares (in some depth) His Dark Material's Harpies to mythological Furies. He's really good at limiting spoilers and being an irredeemable Classics nerd; someone give him a cookie.  Follow and Subscribe!

116: The Testaments

October 28, 2019 07:36 - 1 hour - 60 MB

105: Game of Thrones Season 8

July 10, 2019 22:48 - 1 hour - 42 MB

In this episode, we complain mightily about the final season of HBO's Game of Thrones. Morgan knows you're tired of hearing the same complaints over and over, so she attempts to find positive aspects, while Mic gives in to his bitchiness and rips the final season to bits.

In this episode, we discuss the fantastic new miniseries based upon Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett's Good Omens. We both loved this series and were especially blown away by the performances of David Tennant (Crowley) and Michael Sheen (Aziraphale). We can't recommend this one enough!

102: Grace and Frankie

June 10, 2019 17:00 - 35 minutes - 27 MB

In this episode, we discuss the hit Netflix show Grace and Frankie. We contend that the show relies more on star power than on writing (though the writing is pretty good, too) and learn that Lily Tomlin turned down coming out on the cover of TIME Magazine in the 1970's.

In this episode (OUR 100TH EPISODE, WHAAAAT!?!?), we revel in the hit HBO show VEEP.

Beauty and the Bitch are back with a cheap-ass bottle of wine and too many opinions about children's literature. We're discussing the dreary second child in the Chronicles of Narnia series: Prince Caspian. You know we love some C.S. Lewis, but this is not our favorite book ever.

088: Russian Doll

March 06, 2019 03:12 - 1 hour - 46.2 MB

Netflix original content continues to step up the game with shows like Russian Doll (starring the irrepressible Natasha Lyonne). We follow Nadia as she dies and re-lives the night of her 36th birthday....BUT IT'S SO MUCH MORE THAN THAT. Time Loops, comedy, drama and self-actualization accompany us on this ride, and WE LOVED IT. Lyonne is a fucking star as Nadia and the accompanying cast is the perfect accent to this dark and gritty version of New York. We've got thoughts, feelings, tangent...

087: The Umbrella Academy

February 27, 2019 04:36 - 1 hour - 58.6 MB

Where our emo kids at? And which of us have thought that Gerard Way, musical and angst icon of the early 2000s, would create an incredible graphic novel series? And which My Chemical Romance nerd guessed that his prize-winning graphic novel would be adapted into one of the first Netflix hits of 2019?  The Umbrella Academy is a dark, sexy and engaging story about a gaggle of superhero orphans - all grown up and thoroughly broken. While catching up with estranged siblings and trying to over...

085: Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt

February 13, 2019 03:38 - 1 hour - 62.8 MB

UNBREAKABLE! THEY'RE ALIVE, DAMNIT! Y'all, those females are strong and so is the comedy in the hit Netflix original Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt. The 4th and final season of Kimmy Schmidt just wrapped up and we think they did a stellar job at bowing out at just the right time. From the mind of Tina Fey, this is the ridiculous sitcom we've all been missing since 30 Rock and Parks and Recreation finished their runs. It's full of wit, shade, immense comedy, sing-a-longs and extremely quotable m...

BB's: If there is one thing we love here at Beauty and the Bitch, it's DRAMA! And Fyre Festival is one of the most dramatic and well-crafted marketing fails EVER.

Nostalgia brings us back to a classic: The Chronicles of Narnia by C.S. Lews. Beauty and the Bitch goes over the merits and vices of The Lion, the With, and the Wardrobe, what we like about Lewis, and what we LOVE about James McAvoy as Mr. Tumnus (SPOILERS: he's everything). Do you feel like you've aged out of this story or does it still speak to you? Do you want to hear about J.R.R. Tolkien's view on the series (SPOILER: he's shady)?

She has a new film out this year that regales us with the tale of her life and her nasty battle with Queen Lizzy of England. How real is this movie gonna be? Probably not real-real.

Whether you care about DC films or not, the GOOD NEWS is that Jason Momoa is the star of this one! Beauty and the Bitch are exploring our very low expectatons for this film, how the character of Aquaman stacks up against other superheroes, questionable casting choices, how this is tied into the Entourage franchise and more.
