Episodes

Sweet Home Alabama

November 06, 2022 10:00 - 57 minutes

Daylight Savings Time ends today, so Donny and Chelsea are rolling the clocks back to 2002, when (somebody's?) quintessential Autumn movie, "Sweet Home Alabama," was easier to watch. (Maybe it's still easy for you, and it's just these two pig-headed liberals having a tough go at it...) Donny wishes this MAGA love letter included a makeover so the audience would know when Melanie becomes unlikeable while Chelsea recalls not vomiting while her husband proposed with a sock. Also, Donny watches d...

Bonus: The Office; S2E5 "Halloween"

October 31, 2022 17:00 - 3 minutes - 2.15 MB

Happy Halloween! To celebrate, Chelsea and Donny are talking about the scariest thing they could think of: Jim and Pam from "The Office!" In the show's first Halloween episode, the duo spends their time on the clock by terrorizing an employee that actually does his job while Angela prepares for the office Halloween party and Michael has a spooky time figuring out who to fire. On the podcast, Donny shares some (NEVER BEFORE HEARD) corporate tricks and tips (including locking employees in a cl...

Urban Legend (w/ Gwen Carole)

October 29, 2022 10:00 - 55 minutes

Gwen Carole is not in the back seat, but she is on the podcast to recap “Urban Legend” with Chelsea and Donny. Chelsea’s face blindness is partially cured, but she still finds a way to be Donny’s very own urban legend when she refers to Loretta Devine as… well, you’ll see. However, Gwen makes up for it when she name drops a few celebrities; it’s like Christmas! Then, the three try to figure out why Alicia Witt was cast as our final girl (they don’t come up with an answer.) Final warning: be c...

Practical Magic (w/ Hannah Brown)

October 23, 2022 10:00 - 56 minutes

This week, Hannah Brown is forced to hang out with two Bug’s Life kids for an hour to discuss the Seinfeld of Halloween movies, Practical Magic. More happens in these 52 minutes than did in the entirety of the film, but Hannah learns that may not be a good thing when the conversation turns to chickenpox parties and unhinged sisterly bonding. Also, Chelsea creates a sequel that already exists… and is quite beloved. To hear (or watch) this recap in its unedited, unhinged entirety, head to our ...

Bonus: Boy Meets World; S5,E17 "And Then There Was Shawn"

October 19, 2022 15:00 - 2 minutes - 2.04 MB

In a new bonus episode, Chelsea and Donny discuss the best Halloween episode that wasn't a Halloween episode, "And Then There Was Shawn," the Scream-inspired episode of Boy Meets World. The duo also discuss Cory being the worst part of his own show, Linda Cardellini, dramatic friends, and Trina McGee (Angela)'s appearance on "Pod Meets World." Also, Mrs. Jaquette is back!

I Know What You Did Last Summer (w/ US Weekly's Sarah Hearon)

October 16, 2022 10:00 - 1 hour

Deputy Editor of US Weekly and host of “Here For the Right Reasons” podcast, Sarah Hearon, joins Donny and Chelsea to recap ‘I Know What You Did Last Summer,’ and the duo may have done research to pronounce her last name correctly, but they still don’t know a damn thing about the movie they’re covering. The three praise the Scholastic Book Fair, IMDB, and Kevin Bacon’s “The Following.” Also, they dig into horrifying childhood trauma and Donny is forced to send a HR form to Sarah when Chelsea ...

Bonus: 7th Heaven; S1E6 "Halloween"

October 12, 2022 14:00 - 2 minutes - 1.83 MB

It's the Camden's first (and last) Halloween episode, and Chelsea and Donny are here to be just as chaotic and over-the-top as the episode itself. While Lucy comes face-to-face with Marvin the Martian, Chelsea puts a stop to a haunted house. And Old Lady Mask strikes again as the Rev suffers from recurring night terrors about his (probably) gay past.

The Faculty (w/ Tom Hamlett)

October 09, 2022 06:00 - 58 minutes

Chelsea continues to celebrate spooky season by dressing as things that Donny hates, while he sports his best cosplay (it's just a varsity jacket and a pen up his nose) as they recap "The Faculty" with Tom Hamlett of Dumpster Dive podcast. Chelsea and Donny bond over tough coaches in the sports world before she horrifies him with stories of when she micro dosed....well, you'll see. But the roles quickly reverse when Donny terrifies everyone with stories of his cat's anus. Then, Mrs. Jacquette...

Bonus: Hocus Pocus 2 LIVE SHOW

October 06, 2022 15:00 - 2 minutes - 1.63 MB

Donny and Chelsea "recapped" Hocus Pocus 2 during their first live show on 10/6. While conversation about the movie was certainly attempted, conversations turned to zip ties, Michael Moore similarities, MLM schemes, and broken glasses. Also, Sarah Jessica Parker's grandmother was a witch.

The Craft

October 02, 2022 10:00 - 58 minutes

Happy Spooky Season! What's scarier than the last twenty minutes of "The Craft?" An hour of Donny and Chelsea, uninterrupted and unleashed! That's right - this week, the duo is guestless as they recap the 1996 classic that "inspired" Charmed. Chelsea discusses the murderers that helped raise her while Donny relives childhood trauma brought on by his neighbor that ended up in jail. Then, Donny and Chelsea reclaim "homely" and the Cuties submit the craziest rumors spread about them. Finally, Do...

Twilight (w/ Melissa Kristin)

September 25, 2022 10:00 - 58 minutes

And so the lion fell in love with the lamb... and Donny and Chelsea fell in love with the master class in comedy that is "Twilight." With the help of Melissa Kristin, they recap Part I of the only vampire saga that doubles as a "how to" guide in toxic relationships. They discuss how much of an idiot Bella is, the logistics of why the Cullen's plan to blend in is the worst, and Alice's bad haircut. Then, the vampire baseball game (naturally) leads to a conversation about ruining Thanksgiving. ...

Almost Famous (w/ Selle Brooks of "Who Asked Me?")

September 18, 2022 10:00 - 1 hour

It’s all happening (although Donny wishes it wasn't) this week, as Selle Brooks of the "Who Asked Me?" podcast joins him and Chelsea to recap her favorite movie, "Almost Famous." Chelsea explains her roots as a classic rock aficionado, Selle talks about buying a denim thong, and Donny calls everyone ugly. Then, the most shocking thing to ever be revealed on this podcast comes to light: Chelsea is NOT the younger sibling in her family. Also, the Cuties share stories of jobs they were severely ...

The Sweetest Thing (w/ Noor of "The Reality Is" Podcast)

September 11, 2022 12:00 - 1 hour

"You're too big to fit in here, too big to fit in here, too big to fit in here." It's Noor's birthday, and to celebrate, Donny and Chelsea do what they do best: horrify her. Donny shares his quarantine routine while Chelsea rants and plans for her inevitable demise in someone's basement. Then, Donny educates on the logistics of gloryholes and Noor educates on how centuries work. Shout out to Granny Panties AND Donny's Grandmother, because both are putting in the hard work. Also, the Cuties su...

Where can you go when the world don't treat you right? The answer is the I Am The Cute One Patreon, where Donny and Chelsea are two episodes in to recapping 7th Heaven. This week, Donny and Chelsea skip the funeral episode and instead find themselves... with a racism episode?

Aquamarine (w/ Alina Bock)

August 28, 2022 07:00 - 56 minutes

Maybe Donny helped a mermaid because this week, his wish is coming true! He and Chelsea finally recap the movie he has been begging to cover since the podcast began: Aquamarine! They're joined by the hilarious co-host of "Awkward Stage," Alina Bock, who didn't live off of sardines for a month in preparation, but she did bring the German translation of the title, which now needs to be a staple of the podcast, tbh. Alina does her best to get Donny to become a Gilmore Boy and warns him the dange...

500 Days of Summer (with @thenostalgiclatino)

August 21, 2022 10:00 - 58 minutes

This is a podcast about nostalgia, but you should know upfront, this is not a nostalgia podcast. It's just chaos unleashed, and Carlos (@thenostalgiclatino) learns that quickly when he joins Chelsea and Donny to recap "500 Days of Summer." The trio discuss manic pixie dreamgirls (who Donny refuses to believe Chelsea ever was), karaoke styles, hanging out with coworkers, and dates at Ikea (Swedish meatballs are mandatory!) Also, Chelsea finally won because Donny goes full feminist with his hat...

The Wedding Singer (w/ Christian Gray Snow)

August 14, 2022 10:00 - 54 minutes

Chelsea is out of a wig and in a full sweat as she and Donny are joined by that bitch (and future wedding MC) from Instagram, Christian Gray Snow, to recap the Adam Sandler/Drew Barrymore classic, "The Wedding Singer" and bond over Princess Diana merch. Her dad has food poisoning, Donny is making Beanie Babies have sex, and Christian understands why abortion would be mentioned in a wedding speech. Also, Christian and Donny share their taste in (terrible) men while Chelsea gets feminasty about...

Mean Girls (w/ Jenna Barclay)

August 07, 2022 10:00 - 58 minutes

Get in, Loser, we're recapping 'Mean Girls!' Donny unblocks everyone's favorite "basic bitch historian," Jenna Barclay, for the week to discuss the Lindsay Lohan classic. While nobody should be learning anything fresh about this movie in the year 2022, Donny is learning new things about poppers; the (recreational?) drug may be new to Donny, but this movie is not, as he's a three-time "Mean Girls" trivia champion. PSA: Donny's rants about Aaron Samuels do not reflect Jenna and Chelsea's opinio...

Save the Last Dance (w/ Kendrick Tucker)

July 31, 2022 10:00 - 57 minutes

“It ain’t ova, b*tch.” But Donny’s career in podcasting is, as he will ultimately be cancelled for his accent work and acting choices during this “Save the Last Dance” recap with Kendrick Tucker of “Reality and Comics Too” podcast.  The dark (in more ways than one) opening makes Chelsea realize why she left sleepovers early, and her passion for Julia Stiles’ pullout couch makes Donny realize he doesn’t want to sleepover at her house anymore. Then, Chelsea reminisces about her time at the Thir...

Bonus: 7th Heaven; S1E3 "In the Blink of an Eye"

July 28, 2022 15:00 - 1 minute - 1.25 MB

This week, Matt is finally allowed back in the driver's seat... until he backs into a police car, and Donny is finally allowed to tell stories about growing up again... until he tells Chelsea ways he terrorized his sister. Annie remains the only likeable Camden. To rep her in the streets, be sure to grab your very own What Would Annie Camden D...

Love Actually (w/ @blocked_by_jax)

July 24, 2022 10:00 - 58 minutes

Idiots actually are all around, and Jen (Instagram’s @blocked_by_jax) discovers that quickly when she helps Donny and Chelsea recap “Love Actually” in honor of Christmas in July. The three realize that the movie does not hold up - at all - and Chelsea realizes that characters that don’t speak still need someone to write for them and judges Donny for being on “a lot” of cruises. Then, Donny and Jen get in a fight over Ashley Tisdale’s “Last Christmas,” and he crowns one of the movie’s actors a...

Bonus: 7th Heaven; S1E2 "Family Secrets"

July 22, 2022 17:00 - 2 minutes - 1.59 MB

(Buy your o...

Easy A (w/ Nava Kavelin & Sophie Ansari of "Podcrushed")

July 17, 2022 06:00 - 59 minutes

When "Easy A" was picked as this week's movie, Donny and Chelsea knew right away who they wanted to cover it with. Enter Nava and Sophie, co-hosts of "Podcrushed," the podcast where Penn Badgley reads your middle school story. What Sophie and Nava didn't realize, though, is that if they are the "scholarly" nostalgia podcast, "I Am The Cute One" is the equivalent of walking into a monkey's cage at the zoo.  Donny demands they tell their Gleek status within the first five minutes of the show b...

Bonus: 7th Heaven Pilot

July 11, 2022 15:00 - 2 minutes - 1.78 MB

Staying on brand, Donny and Chelsea are the people what they didn't ask for: a rewatch of the "7th Heaven" pilot! Not much goes on in terms of plot (how did this show get picked up?), but there are pregnant dogs, dying grandmas, thin slim tampons, and a french kiss between siblings. Wait, what?

Welcome to the Dollhouse (w/ Melissa Beck)

July 10, 2022 10:00 - 55 minutes

It's a menagerie this week as Donny and Chelsea are joined by Melissa Beck of "The Real World: New Orleans" to discuss one of her top two movies (and it's not number two), "Welcome to the Dollhouse." In perhaps their deepest and most scholarly episode yet, the three relive their middle school trauma as they dissect the dark but lovely film and praise the versatile actresses of their time, Jennifer Aniston and Mandy Moore. Donny tries his best to not make Melissa feel old, Melissa makes Donny ...

Dick (w/ Ryan Bailey)

July 03, 2022 10:00 - 56 minutes

Chelsea and Donny are not letting Dick run their life, but they are letting Ryan Bailey (someone who likes to eat ass on camera) celebrate the 50th Anniversary of Watergate with them by recapping the 1999 Kirsten Dunst/Michelle Williams movie, "Dick." Ryan spends the episode trying to figure out who the target audience was for this movie while Chelsea spends the episode giving history lessons. Then, Ryan shares a story about his worst date and Donny educates them on the early 2000s gay porn, ...

The Witches (w/ Dara Laine Sussman)

June 26, 2022 10:00 - 56 minutes

What better way to end Chelchella 2022 than by recapping “The Witches,” the movie that defined Chelsea’s personality and inspired her tramp stamp, with Dara Laine Sussman of Les Deux You Remember This? Roald Dahl’s books are for little freaks, and Donny, Chelsea, and Dara prove they fit right in with their stories of hamster haircuts, parakeet mating rituals, British mice, and Philadelphia’s Disney vault. The trio also perform an in-depth analysis on the heavy crotch work in this film, and Ch...

Legally Blonde (w/ Mani Marcus)

June 19, 2022 10:00 - 51 minutes - 35.2 MB

After begging to come back on the the podcast, Imani Marcus (Mixing With Mani) joins Donny and Chelsea to celebrate with her favorite straight woman, Elle Woods.  Although Chelsea cut all of Donny’s references to the “Legally Blonde” musical, he still has plenty to say, starting with a deep dive into the font used in the movie’s opening credits. Meanwhile, Chelsea explains getting Luke’d, and it’s clear that she  and Donny don’t use the same internet when she tells a story about her friend’s...

Passport to Paris (w/ Millennial Movie Club)

June 12, 2022 10:00 - 1 hour

The Titanic may not be great with icebergs, but Jaz and Daniel of the Millennial Movie Club Podcast are great with recapping movies of our most formative years, so they join Chelsea and Donny for a very special double celebration: Chelsea's birthday and the anniversary of I Am The Cute One! And what better way to celebrate the podiversary than with the twins that started it all? That's right! This week, Donny and Chelsea (and their guests) are covering "Passport to Paris" - the Olsen twins' f...

The Hot Chick (w/ Noor of "The Reality Is" Podcast)

June 05, 2022 13:00 - 55 minutes

To kick off Pride Month, Noor from "The Reality Is" Podcast (and Donny & Chelsea's "Princess Diaries" recap), joins the Cute One hosts to recap their most h0mophobic movie yet - "The Hot Chick" (which is also one of Chelsea's favorite movies; buckle up - her birthday month is already proving to be QUITE a ride, folks). Chelsea shares a story about being cursed and purchasing a $200 candle while Donny confesses to what he used to shoplift in high school. Also, the three drool over Matthew Lawr...

The Brady Bunch Movie (w/ Eric Feldman)

May 29, 2022 10:00 - 54 minutes

Kids, put on your Sunday best; we're going to Sears because this week, Donny and Chelsea are having a very Sunshine Day as they recap "The Brady Bunch Movie" with hilarious content creator, Eric Feldman! Naturally, that leads to a conversation about Donny getting a boner every single day in history class. And, in a shock to everyone - but a wonderful way to ring in Pride Month - Chelsea knows who RuPaul is (but is unsure about the entire Brady Bunch cast.) And Jan - you betta work. To hear (...

Can't Hardly Wait (w/ Janine of @retr0avocado)

May 22, 2022 10:00 - 1 hour

Anybody order a Love Burger?! Donny and Chelsea chat with the writer/director team of "Can't Hardly Wait," Harry Elfont & Deborah Kaplan about how the movie came to be and behind the scenes memories before Janine from @retr0avocado is back to recap the movie. Donny learns *quickly* that she and Chelsea are NOT fans of Preston. Donny reveals he was the Preston of his middle school, but by the end of the episode, he earns an honorary Women's Studies degree (but not an honorary vagina). They dis...

Scooby Doo (w/ Jamie of @millennial_misery)

May 15, 2022 10:00 - 50 minutes - 34.7 MB

Jinkies! Donny is on the case of Chelsea not liking the live action Scooby Doo movie, and it appears this week's guest, Jamie of @milennial_misery, is her accomplice. As Donny tries to get them to see the error of their ways (he almost succeeds), Chelsea and Jamie disgust him by bonding over their love of South Park instead. Then, Chelsea pulls a Luna Ghost and terrifies Donny and Jamie by recounting one of her vacations to Mexico. Also, Chelsea used to eat dog food. Ruh Roh. To hear (or w...

Consider this a business woman special! Donny and Chelsea are joined by Emily Hanks, the host of 'She Speaks Bravo' to cover 'Romy & Michele's High School Reunion.' Donny admits the reason he’s in his yearbook 72 times, and Chelsea guesses Alan Cumming’s last name - incorrectly.

May 01, 2022 06:00 - 55 minutes

@MilennialKyle may not be the best god d-mned dancer at the American Ballet Academy, but he IS one of the best nostalgic dancers on TikTok (check out his body rolls if you don't believe us!), and he's joining Chelsea and Donny this week to cover 'the dance movie with too much dancing' - Center Stage! After spending half of the movie trying to tell the cast members apart and waiting for a Julia Stiles entrance, Chelsea turns in her feminism card to verbally attack Jody Sawyer. Meanwhile, Donny...

Chelsea teaches Jade and Donny a drinking game and shares a story about a previous unhealthy relationship that left her topless by a lake while Donny defends 'The King of Queens" and teaches the hit dance move, "The ATM." Also, Jade stresses the importance of ...

Coyote Ugly (w/ @iamthirtyaf)

April 17, 2022 10:00 - 59 minutes

While it would have made sense to talk about "Saved" for their Easter episode, Donny and Chelsea aren't necessarily known for making sense, so they're covering the next most religious movie they could think of - "Coyote Ugly," and they have Peter and Chloe of @iamthirtyaf to assist! They can't fight the moonlight, but they CAN discuss their first cell phones, Tyra's never-ending ability to be unhinged in all that she does, the pure chaos of Piper Perabo doing a striptease in front of 23 life ...

Saved (w/ @literaltrash2004)

April 10, 2022 10:00 - 1 hour

Save the heathens, Hilary Faye. Donny and Chelsea are back with more church stories as they recap a movie Donny hasn't pleasured himself to - "Saved," and they have Bridget from @literaltrash2004 to help them. Jesus is on Chelsea's side this week as she once was (face) blind, but now she sees Macaulay Culkin, Mandy Moore AND "the one from Hunger Games." The group also discusses made-for-TV movies, graphic tees, chin zits, and school violence episodes of the early 2000s. Also, Chelsea confesse...

To hear (or watch) this recap in its unedited, unhinged entirety, head to our newly lau...

High School Musical (w/ Jessica Conrad)

March 20, 2022 10:00 - 1 hour

It's (finally) Donny's birthday, and to celebrate, he forces Chelsea to watch "High School Musical!" Luckily, he has Jessica Conrad on his side, who comes prepared in her finest HSM merch. They discuss their most cringe-worthy drama club moments (and Chelsea's fear of theater kids) and the highs and lows of being Team Sharpay in a Gabriella world. Also, Donny shares his secret "Euphoria" writing credit. To hear (or watch) this recap in its unedited, unhinged entirety, head to our newly launc...

Drive Me Crazy (w/ Erin Miller, @overthemoonfaraway)

March 13, 2022 10:00 - 55 minutes

Donny and Chelsea trick Erin Miller into watching "Drive Me Crazy" for her first podcast appearance, but they quickly learn they should have just watched the music video instead. They discuss their dream TGIF lineup, Melissa Joan Hart's anger about the movie's soundtrack, school pranks, the mismatched casting of this film, and debate whether they were popular in high school. The trio also relive the horrors of M. Night Shyamalan's "The Sixth Sense," but that's no match for the chilling answer...

Teaching Mrs. Tingle (w/ Tom Hamlett)

March 06, 2022 11:00 - 56 minutes

It's officially Donny Appreciation Month, and Tom Hamlett of Dumpster Dive Podcast joins Chelsea to celebrate Donny the best way they know how: terrorizing him and bullying him for loving mediocre movies of the early aughts. Helen Mirren may have recently won a SAG Award for Lifetime Achievement, but that doesn't make her safe from Tom's criticism. Don't worry - Donny is ready to defend this movie and the performances in it to the grave (RIP Trudy Tucker.) To hear (or watch) this recap in it...

Sister Act (w/ Priscilla of @bonjourbitchesblog)

February 27, 2022 11:00 - 54 minutes

Nothing you can do can keep Priscilla (@bonjourbitchesblog) away from... appearing on 'I Am The Cute One,' and this week, she's here to recap 'Sister Act' (and try to steal Chelsea's spot as co-host.) The three discuss the horrifying toys of the 90s - bugs are for boys! - before diving into important takeaways from the movie, including their most vivid jukebox memories, being banned from youth group for teaching "inappropriate" church music, and Dolores' chic fashions that are still very much...

She's All That (w/ Kate Steinberg)

February 20, 2022 11:00 - 59 minutes

Kate Steinberg survived HBO Max's '12 Dates of Christmas,' but can she make it through recapping a teen movie from the early aughts with Donny and Chelsea? Of course she can! Why? Because she's all that! Donny shares some heartbreaking stories about his time in the theater, Chelsea shocks her guest and co-host with troubling tales of music festivals (and trampolines), and the three bond over their love of early 2000's reality TV (none of which aged well, btw.) To hear (or watch) this recap i...

How To Lose A Guy in 10 Days (w/ @retr0avocado)

February 13, 2022 11:00 - 57 minutes

Nothing says Valentine's Day like making a bet you can make a woman fall in love with you while simultaneously having that woman terrorize you for 10 days straight to make you run for the hills. Donny and Chelsea (who are pros at terrorizing someone for days at a time) are joined by Janine, aka @retr0avocado, to recap the highly unhinged "How To Lose A Guy in 10 Days." Well - she thought. Instead, she is filled with horror as Donny and Chelsea tell tale after tale of bad dates, movie theater ...

Never Been Kissed (w/ Christine Biancavilla)

February 06, 2022 11:00 - 1 hour

Christine Biancavilla joins Donny & Chelsea to recap their most problematic movie yet: "Never Been Kissed" (which, it turns out, should have been called "Never Had a WAP" because we've been lied to our entire lives and Josie Grossie has, indeed, been kissed). This falls appropriately in theme with Chelsea sharing the most problematic story ever told on the podcast, (which, surprisingly, is not about hanging out Dunkin' Donuts parking lots) leaving Donny shocked. As always, Donny tries to out-...

10 Things I Hate About You (w/ Kendrick Tucker of "Reality & Comics Too")

January 30, 2022 11:00 - 1 hour

I hate the way you talk to me and the way you cut your hair. I hate the way you drive my car, I hate that Chelsea likes Bianca's prom dress. Kendrick Tucker stops by the "I Am The Cute One" studios (which, unfortunately, does not have bands perform on the roof) to recap "10 Things I Hate About You," and Chelsea and Donny quickly discover they are the sisters from this movie: Donny as the sister from Planet Look at Me, and Chelsea as the heinous bitch, naturally. The three share their craziest...
