Episode 56 - S1E6 - Double Identity
September 15, 2018 03:56 - 1 hour - 116 MBWe are joined by Jacob Haller of the Love YA Like Crazy Podcast this week. We talked a lot about cars this week, and Dawn’s dead grampa’s porn. Rachel invites everyone to “come at” her controversial opinion that The Godfather is only so-so, as we stumble our way through pronouncing Italian words in this very Godfathery episode. We discuss how desirable a mafia job “Lady Watcher” might be. What are some other cliché mafia assignments that might feel demeaning to receive? Jacob flou...

Episode 54 - S3E4 - One Strobe Over the Line
August 11, 2018 01:44 - 1 hour - 105 MBIn this episode we are joined by Dave Stone Robb to discuss one of the most important Quantum Leap related issues we’ve yet to come across: when making ramen noodles, what does “too brothy” mean to you? Sam has leapt into the world of high fashion and daaaamn is he making that white denim work for him. Important lessons we learn include, drugs do not make you young and/or beautiful and don’t splash champagne in a lion’s face - no matter how well trained you think it is. We have a contest...
Episode 53 - S4E4 - Justice
July 27, 2018 07:00 - 1 hour - 69.1 MBToday’s episode is Justice, Season 4 episode 4 CW: RACISM, Racial Language, KKK Summer Contest! Make sure to listen post ratings for details!!! Dawn and Rachel give some life updates, including how a child responds to the opening crawl of a Star Wars film she recently saw in theaters; Dawn elects to not bore you with her life and times regarding mulch. This episode is equal parts racism and after school special. Spoiler, we immensely dislike 96% of the characters in this episode ...
Bonus Episode 2 - Road House

Episode 52 - S3E5 - The Boogiem*n
July 13, 2018 07:00 - 1 hour - 96.3 MBThis week...are we a Lord of the Rings podcast now? No! But Rachel finally watched the movies so we had to talk about them. This is one of the spoOkier episodes we've watched, and we learn that both Dawn and Rachel are particularly susceptible to spOokiness. What is a deacon? We don't know! Returning guest Parker says a few steps below pope? As expected, Rachel is alone in her strong feelings about which version of The Shining is best (STEVEN WEBER FOR LIFE) Dawn throws major shade...
Episode 51 - S2E8 - Jimmy
June 29, 2018 23:21 - 1 hour - 97.8 MBToday we are joined by Jesse Kahat-Taillon of the Pearls From My Mom podcast to discuss Season 2, Episode 8 “Jimmy.” Jesse and her mother both worked with persons with intellectual and developmental disabilities so we welcome both of their insights into this thorny episode. It turns out we were possibly overly anxious because it’s mostly a very sweet episode. Our next episode covers Season 3, Episode 5 The Boogiem*n Contribute to our Patreon: http://patreon.com/beckettfutu...
Episode 50 - S3E11 - Runaway
June 08, 2018 14:51 - 1 hour - 114 MBThis week we're joined by Susan Ritta to discuss an episode that, frankly, we all hated. Dawn came back from CrimeCon basically a detective, but even she couldn't track down Camp Chipmunk. Help her find it! We discuss the age old trope of putting a grown man in a striped t-shirt and baseball cap to make him look like a child, and whether or not MAD Magazine has ever done a Shakespeare parody issue. Wanna watch a documentary about show chickens? Has Dawn got a recommendation for you!...
Episode 49 - S4E12 - Running for Honor
May 25, 2018 06:00 - 1 hour - 68.7 MBIn this week’s episode we discuss stained glass, super fans of Crazy Ex-Girlfriend and this super CW episode around homophobia, slurs, sexism and well you get the idea- it’s a hard watch but we did it with our guest Andrew. Besides a lot of really unfortunate comments from Al, we all take note that the 80s hair is pretty on point in this episode. We’re looking at you Admiral’s daughter. Also Dawn knows nothing about track. We tried our best to handle the sensitive nature of the topics in...
Episode 48 - S2E5 - Blind Faith
May 11, 2018 11:32 - 1 hour - 100 MBHow do you get to Carnegie Hall? Practice! Or, if you’re Sam Beckett, you just Leap onto the stage. This week we are once again joined by Katie Redford to discuss Blind Faith. Rachel just can’t get over how bad the guide dog is, while Katie is endlessly delighted by Pete The Cop’s macabre slang terms. Meanwhile, all 3 of us agree that the episode would have been a million percent improved if they’d cut the last 3 minutes. Does anyone else remember that Helen Thomas sketch Dawn was talking ...
Episode 47 - S3E3 - Leap of Faith
May 04, 2018 06:00 - 1 hour - 101 MBHappy birthday Beckett to the Future! One year ago we were way back in 1862 and today we’re 101 years in the future covering Leap of Faith with our first ever Patreon guest Shannon Kelly! In this week’s episode we discuss haircuts, dog birthdays, the Rocky series, difficulty purchasing tickets to live performances, and how little any us know about Catholicism. Please, anyone from the Philadelphia weigh in on whether Rachel’s joke about the pronunciation of “water” landed at all. She’s bee...
Episode 46 - S4E15 - A Song for the Soul
April 20, 2018 06:00 - 1 hour - 115 MBThis week we are joined by Riley Silverman to discuss A Song For The Soul. We spend more than a little time lamenting how long ago the 90s were. Also, why is Sam such a bad singer in this episode? He has a doctorate in music! And Riley wants to know WHO Sam is talking to in those voiceovers. We get an appearance from a baby-faced Eric La Salle, which prompts some discussion about how E.R. is responsible for Rachel's irrational helicopter phobia. That show got NUTS. Can 15 year olds leg...
Episode 45 - S2E20 - Maybe Baby
April 13, 2018 06:00 - 1 hour - 97.3 MBToday we are joined by Melissa Meli of the Amateur Detective Club and Blank History Month podcasts to discuss the madcap misadventures of Season 2, Episode 20: Maybe Baby. We're all big fans of Julie Brown's other work so we're excited to find out how good of a writer she and her brother are in the field of episodic 1990's television. Meanwhile: stay tuned for another exciting installment of "Dawn Buys a Water-Pik!" Next week’s episode is Season 4 Episode 15 A Song For The Soul Co...
Episode 45 - S3E10 - A Little Miracle
April 07, 2018 13:00 - 1 hour - 130 MBWe are joined by returning guest Russ Feder, of the Mad About Mad About You podcast. CW this week for some discussion of suicide, as we have a SECOND episode featuring actor Charles Rocket playing a DIFFERENT CHARACTER than we saw him portray in Leap For Lisa. This week's ep is quite possibly the new favorite version of A Christmas Carol for all of us, and hands down features one of the best Al outfits ever created. Did you know that Dawn's grandpa, Red Grey, got to pick his own name? ...
Episode 43 - S2E14 - All-Americans
March 30, 2018 11:56 - 1 hour - 97.2 MBToday we welcome back Ileana Garcia to discuss long sweaters, menudo, shoddy locker room construction, and high school football. In this seemingly misplaced episode Sam leaps into a Mexican-American teenager and seems suspiciously surprised to take in that very long mirror shot. Al is characteristically gross about cheerleaders, even by 1990’s standards. As promised, here’s Debbie Reynolds as a football: https://youtu.be/nMNHH4clmP0 Next week’s episode is Season 3, Episode 10 A Littl...
Episode 42 - S3E21 - Nuclear Family
March 22, 2018 12:51 - 1 hour - 123 MBWe are joined by returning guest Tim Stevens this week to discuss one of the more stressful episodes we've watched to date. If the threat of nuclear was stresses you out as much as it does Dawn, this might not be the episode for you. We spend a fun diversion fancasting a modern day Quantum Leap, then dive straight into the heavy stuff. Do you think you could get an underground one bedroom apartment put in your back yard for 19 grand or less? Mad props to Dawn for being the only one of ...
Episode 41 - S2E4 - What Price Gloria
March 15, 2018 06:00 - 1 hour - 91.7 MBCW: Sexism, Sexual Overtones, Harassment, Suicide Ideation, Transphobia and Sexual Assault This week Dawn and Rachel are joined by Dennis Frymire of Fate’s Wide Wheel: A Quantum Leap Podcast, our RIVAL, I mean companion podcast to discuss Season 2, Episode 4 “What Price, Gloria?” We had some tricky audio issues and did our best. We apologize. Shout out to Christy and her Robocop dick mug, hope you love it! This has some very cringe-worthy moments, including those around women workin...
Episode 40 - S4E2 - Play Ball
March 02, 2018 00:25 - 1 hour - 111 MBRachel and Dawn are joined by Jack Cuellar to discuss Play Ball, a baseball episode that really swings for the fences. It tries to do everything at once, and it almost succeeds. We talk a lot about our Patreon stretch goal to make Rachel watch Roadhouse, because we recorded this *before* we HIT THAT GOAL LAST WEEK! Stay tuned for our Roadhouse bonus episode. Jack helps open our eyes to the fact that Rachel's boyfriend is basically Al and Dawn's husband is Sam. WHAT HAVE WE DONE?! The o...
Episode 39 - S3E16 - Southern Comforts
February 22, 2018 15:55 - 1 hour - 87.4 MBCW: Sexual Overtones, Domestic Violence and Prostitution This week Dawn and Rachel are joined by Ileana Garcia to discuss Southern Comforts from Season 3, Episode 16. Oh and Pat Richardson from Good Morning Peoria, Episode 34, listened to and liked us. WE are OVER THE MOON! Discovery! We all have poor bladder habits, all the while, dissecting the storied history of the prostitution district in New Orleans and lots of commentary on finishing schools Rachel also uncovers the smizing of ...
Episode 38 - S1E8 - Camikazi Kid
February 15, 2018 17:18 - 1 hour - 118 MBCW: Alcoholism and Abuse We are joined by Vanessa Riley, of the Square Roots podcast, who is definitely a bigger Quantum Leap fan than Ollie Brady. This is our second episode featuring Beverly Hills 90210 alumni, but we don't have a music video this time around. It turns out we were pretty much all Team Brandon. Sorry Dylan. We talk about Grease and the peace corps, and exactly how much clothing is removed in a typical "pantsing." Also, in the old age homes of the future, what nostalgi...
Episode 37 - S4E7 - The Wrong Stuff
February 08, 2018 06:00 - 1 hour - 69.8 MBCW: Vomiting, Animal Cruelty This week Dawn and Rachel are a duo and up for a discussion is one of the more controversial episodes of Quantum Leap history: The Wrong Stuff. Astro-chimp or Chimponaut, please weigh in? All funny jokes aside, this episode really tugged on our heart strings and does a good job on the history of the NASA astro-chimp program. Also, Al is a great look out. Contribute to our Patreon: http://patreon.com/beckettfuture Or visit our website: http://beckettfutur...
Episode 36 - S2E1 - Honeymoon Express
February 01, 2018 16:31 - 1 hour - 95.9 MBNo guest this week, and Dawn and Rachel discuss Honeymoon Express. It's the premiere of season 2, and to celebrate we're treated what must surely be the snarkiest senate subcommittee budget hearing that has ever come to order. Much discussion about how changing history should be giving Al even worse swiss cheese brain than Sam has. How does he remember both timelines?!? Sam is unsurprisingly very prudish and moralistic about sex, and we get what may be our creepiest villain ever. There'...
Episode 35 - S5E18 - Goodbye Norma Jean
January 25, 2018 06:00 - 1 hour - 82.4 MBCW: Suicide and Drug Use This week Dawn and Rachel are joined by Susan J. E. Ritta, WHO IS AMAZING. We have made to the 1960’s! This episode is Goodbye Norma Jean, Season 5 Episode 18. Season 5 really went big on famous icons. Marilyn Monroe, played by a striking look-a-like, holds our gaze during this performance. Fabulous guest Susan coins the Bakula-Boner phrase, which royalties due to her if that takes off. So Sam after 5 seasons still cannot read people. More importantly all thre...
Episode 34 - S2E6- Good Morning Peoria
January 18, 2018 06:00 - 1 hour - 103 MBThis week, Dawn and Rachel are joined this week by Russ Feder from the Mad About Mad About You podcast for a completely spoiler free discussion of The Last Jedi and a spoiler FULL discussion of Good Morning Peoria. Topics include how terrible Sam is at charades, whether The Twist was a song before it was a dance, and how on earth this terribly run radio station is still on the air. Did Dean Stockwell steal extra cigars from the props department and smuggle them off set in his oversized...
Episode 33 - S4E21 - Stand Up
January 11, 2018 06:00 - 1 hour - 70.7 MBCW: Graphic Sexual Acts, Sexism/Assault, Mental Health This week Dawn and Rachel are joined by returning guest Eric Hiltner. Rachel talks with so much passion about the Crow film/tv franchise and Dawn covers notable and interesting? cover models for Playgirl. With Eric’s help, we finally put the great turkey freezing/fresh debate to rest. Also, this episode stars Bob Saget known for his stand-up, but to be honest, he’s more known as the lovable Danny Tanner on Full House… We tried to coi...
Episode 32 - S2E19 - Leaping In Without a Net
January 04, 2018 06:00 - 1 hour - 81.2 MBCW: Circuses, animal handling/mishandling talk This week Dawn and Rachel are joined by Jim Harper. Rachel shares some of her dad stories, complete with a stroll down gifts of years past. Dawn also has the eye opening realization she is her mother when it comes to holiday decorating. The main character of this episode, Eva, is played by Fabiana Udenio or Anna-Maria from Summer School. Jim has an immense love of the film Summer School. Dawn does as well, but Rachel was terrified of it. ...
Episode 31 - S3E9 - Rebel Without a Clue
December 21, 2017 07:00 - 1 hour - 96.1 MBCW: Sexual Assault, Rape Overtones and Presumed Abuse This week Dawn and Rachel are joined by Ollie Brady of Best Acquaintances. We apologize to our United Kingdom and Ireland listeners, we bought Rachel a map. Ollie enlightens us on the science behind washing your face on television and we don’t buy Dillon as a biker, at all. Do you know your helmet and seatbelt laws? We learned them so you don’t have to. A central point of this episode is Jack Kerouac, which Becky has romanticized to ...
Episode 30 - S5E5 - Killin Time
December 14, 2017 14:17 - 1 hour - 93.1 MBDawn and Rachel are joined by guest Valerie Rogers to discuss "Killin' Time" which seems like a straightforward Leap until the visitor escapes the Waiting Room and it's up to Al to set things right. We get to see a lot more of the "future" world of 1999 which has a surprising amount of prostitution honestly. Next week's episode is Season 3 Episode 9 "Rebel Without a Clue" Contribute to our Patreon: http://patreon.com/beckettfuture Or visit our website: http://beckettfuturepod.com Ema...
Episode 29 - S3E6 - Miss Deep South
December 07, 2017 19:14 - 1 hour - 84.4 MBCW: Sexual Harassment, Misogyny and Abuse This week Dawn and Rachel poke fun at each other’s coming of age grunge/goth phases. Rachel can’t believe Dawn hasn’t seen The Crow and we start off right by misquoting Miss Congeniality. We feminine gaze Sam, for not only his calves, but his ability to pull off an Oxford shirt. Not to be outdone by Sam’s great legs and outfits, we still have Al cranking out all the sexism one episode can contain. We give credit to Sam for rightfully shooting d...
Episode 28 - S4E18 It's a Wonderful Leap
November 30, 2017 07:00 - 1 hour - 91.2 MBGuest Tim Stevens joins us as we spend far too much time discussing various trips to Target (sponsor us, Target!). We spend some time debating whether Al is more sexist or more racist in this episode. It's really a toss up. Also, his fashion rating finally start to suffer due to our exhaustion with that DAMN RED JACKET. Rachel and Dawn manage to accidentally conflate angels with aliens and ghosts, possibly offending believers in angels or aliens or ghosts. Tim helps point out all the...
Episode 27 - S5E12 - A Tale of Two Sweeties
November 16, 2017 07:00 - 1 hour - 82 MBDawn and Rachel are joined by guest Amy Pascale of Ladies Love Paul Rudd to discuss the episode, A Tale of Two Sweeties, Season 5, episode 12. Dawn’s homework is to watch Grease 2, mini review coming soon. Lots of judgement is passed on the male bigamist and the thirst of the two main female characters, but we also get it? Dawn admires the flamingos used in this episode as well. Can we understand and process ignoring flaws to deal with midcentury relationships? Rachel really stands her grou...
Episode 26 - S4E14 - The Last Gunfighter
November 09, 2017 07:00 - 1 hour - 92 MBFor this episode, Dawn and Rachel are joined by Parker to discuss an episode of Quantum Leap that really couldn't seem to remember what time period it was actually set it. They develop theories as to why customer service workers are so creepy to Dawn, and we briefly devolve into a Gene Wilder appreciation podcast. Westward The Women is added to Rachel's unseen movie list, but what she really wants is for someone to make a Brigadoon Purge movie. We get an outfit from Al this week that ca...
Episode 25 - S2E17 - Good Night, Dear Heart
November 02, 2017 06:00 - 1 hour - 75.6 MBCW: Rape, Assault, Demonization of GLBT sexuality and Graphic Depictions of Murder Dawn and Rachel are joined by guest Eric Hiltner to discuss the episode Goodnight Dear Heart, Season 2 Episode 17. Oh, we answer our guests questions he wrote in from July, better late than never! Sam leaps into a small town coroner/mortician’s body and experiences strange supernatural power of visions among other spooky things. Thing low budget, David Lynch and X-Files had a child. We discuss...
Episode 24 - S3E13 - Future Boy
October 20, 2017 02:13Dawn and Rachel are joined by guest Nick Carson to discuss the surprisingly meta episode Future Boy. Sam leaps into the sidekick of a children’s television star who happens to have some bizarre theories about time travel (or are they?) In the meantime we discuss such wide ranging topics as Lego architecture, used porn, and how often Nick needs to use the wok he received as a wedding gift. Also, Rachel and Dawn talk at length about all their various parental issues and why this episode ...

Episode 23 - S5E1 - Lee Harvey Oswald
October 12, 2017 06:00 - 1 hour - 97.6 MBContent warning: Domestic Abuse and Suicide This two part story arc covers the life and demise of Lee Harvey Oswald. Why is Sam there? We barely find out and it takes a long time to get there, so instead of splitting into two and leaving you hanging, we’ve combined it into a mega episode! Also, self proclaimed Number 1 fan, Ollie Brady of Best Acquaintances is back. Besides the obvious topics, Rachel puts on her analytical thinking cap regarding brain merging plus we add in some historical...
Episode 22 - S2E9 - So Help Me God
October 05, 2017 06:00 - 1 hour - 83.4 MBContent warning: Domestic/Sexual Assault and Abuse and Racism Sam leaps into a Southern racist lawyer defending a black woman who’s experienced a lot of abuse and bigotry. White saviors from the town are plenty, so please heed to the content warning, as this is a hard episode to listen to, BUT, we do spend a good amount of time focusing on the southern gothic-isms of local community theatre Tennessee Williams, talk about how hot the Fox is from Robin Hood and are utterly disgusted with mos...
Episode 21 - S4E22 - A Leap for Lisa
September 28, 2017 06:00 - 1 hour - 95.7 MBThis week Clint from Alcohollywood joins Dawn and Rachel for a discussion that uncovers so many movies Rachel hasn't seen that they simply can't all be listed (note from Rachel: it's Dumb and Dumber and Hocus Pocus. Come at me!) It also turns out Dawn is the only one of the trio with any connection at all to Beverly Hills 90210. We have two Als in this episode and one Al replacement, for a total of maybe 1.8 Als...? We also learn a few more of the "rules" about how leaping works, but a...
Episode 20 - S4E20 - The Curse of Ptah-Hotep
September 21, 2017 05:00 - 1 hour - 91.1 MBFor this episode, Rachel asks a simple question about movie theaters in Chicago and Dawn provides her with an overly comprehensive summary, we apologize. Also, she finally saw Wonder Woman…3 months late. We have a new guest, Parker Bowman of the popular podcast(s) Junk Food Dinner and >Pool Party Radio. Rachel shares her utmost disgust for the episode’s behavior toward sarcophagi and we spend a good amount of time questioning why there are so many rugs available at this site and why everyone...
Episode 19 - S4 E10 - Unchained
September 14, 2017 05:00 - 1 hour - 79.7 MBFor this episode, we discuss the great hate of Hulu and why do youths of today not know that NBC is a network? Oh! And we have return guest, Ollie Brady of Best Acquaintances. Dawn spends a lot of time convincing them that the fictional town is based on a real town in Alabama. Rachel spends a lot of time faking Val Kilmer’s accent in Tombstone; a movie that Ollie reallllllly loves. Lest we not forget, the episode itself is full of a lot of corruption of the criminal justice system and how th...
Episode 18 - S5E16 - Return of the Evil Leaper
September 07, 2017 05:00 - 1 hour - 95.1 MBIn what turned out to be one of the most confusing episodes we've done to date, we discussed what good Transformers are called, why it's only good to be Batman if you're rich, and we say the phrase "chicken race" more than previously thought possible on a single podcast. Also, turns out Rachel hasn't seen "The Computer Wore Tennis Shoes", but we can probably file that under least shocking movie she's missed. Special guest, volunteer producer Benjamin White. You can find him playing Splatoon ...
Episode 17 - S5E3 - Leaping of the Shrew
August 31, 2017 05:00 - 1 hour - 89.5 MBThis week we have a guest, Helen Herbst LaStar from Falling In Love Montage. We discuss county fairs and how they are now appealing to our age demographic, rom-coms, Brooke Shields ability to play the same Blue Lagoon character in multiple instances, including this episode and strong shoe closet game from the film, Overboard. Next week's episode is S5E16 "Return of the Evil Leaper" Donate to our Patreon if you're feeling generous!
Bonus Episode Al's Outfits 1
August 28, 2017 01:14 - 1 hour - 82.7 MBDawn and Rachel, with special guest Katie Redford, recap the first 16 episodes of the show, regarding Al's outfits.
Episode 16 - S1E1 - Genesis
August 24, 2017 06:00 - 2 hours - 112 MBHere we are. Sixteen episodes of this podcast and we're finally covering the series premiere. Surely all of our questions about the Quantum Leap project will be revealed, right? We'll finally understand The Lobby, The Imaging Chamber, and what gender pronoun to use for Ziggy? Right? Dawn and Rachel also discuss pool floats, roadside advertising, and a surprising amount about area codes. Next week's episode is Season 5, Episode 3 "The Leaping of the Shrew"
Episode 15 - S4E16 - Ghost Ship
August 17, 2017 06:00 - 1 hour - 108 MBIn this episode we are joined by Jared Latore from Alcohollywood to discuss the Bermuda Triangle, several incorrect pronunciations of Carla Gugino, and the My Buddy / Kid Sister ads. Next week's episode is Season 1, Episode 1 "Genesis"

Episode 13 - S3E12 - 8-12 Months
July 27, 2017 06:00 - 1 hour - 79.2 MBIn this episode we welcome Alexandra Bowser of the podcast Arthur, Mommy, Movie Time! to discuss an episode in which Sam almost gives birth as she knows a thing or two more than the regular hosts. In this remarkably focused episode Dawn, Rachel, and guest Alexandra discuss regional variances in sex ed, what it's like to leap into another gender, and the weather. Next week's episode is Season 1, Episode 5 "How the Tess Was Won" with guest Christy Kilgore Hiltner.
Episode 12 - S1E7 - The Color of Truth
July 20, 2017 06:00 - 1 hour - 94.5 MBCW: Racism, racial epithets In this episode, Dawn and Rachel are joined by James Anderson. We discuss olives and fridge magnets and racism. This episode deals with heavy racial issues, and we have to dance around some unrepeatable language from the show. We add Gone With the Wind to the list of iconic movies Rachel skipped over. Sam Beckett seems to be JUST NOW discovering racism, but Social Justice Al educates him on what's what. We envision burly, white, racist-looking guys read...
