Indoorswomen - Episode 32 - Meta Throw Pillows

March 02, 2017 18:26 - 58 minutes - 53.5 MB

Today's topic is:  What pop culture makes us cry? Whether it is joy, sadness, or excitement, what makes us a little misty? Spoiler: we have never cried. Ever. Ok, that's a lie. We list sad themes, specific moments, crying triggers, and Meg does extensive psychological research to justify being a giant crybaby. From the emotional manipulation of sad music and tense storylines, it basically all makes us blubber. Especially Tom Hanks. Damn that Tom Hanks. It’s the least sad podcast about cryi...

Indoorswomen - Episode 29 - We are Sherlocked (Part I)

January 05, 2017 19:14 - 49 minutes - 45.6 MB

It's no question that the Indoorswomen are big Sherlock Holmes fans and we are particularly fond of the modern-day adaptation "Sherlock" (BBC/PBS). We are, in fact, such big fans, that we had to split this episode into two parts due to excessive yammering. See you in two weeks for the (not so) stunning conclusion. Today we are discussing “Elementary, My dear Watson”, and other things Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes never said. We are talking modern Sherlock adaptations, primarily ...

Ok, we won't have rap battles, but we do appreciate them. This week's podcast is about musicals! Musicals, if you don’t know, are plays in which, to quote Mack from the movie Sabrina,“the actors periodically dance about and burst into song”. We discuss our favorites, live shows we have attended, movie and television musicals, and we devote some serious time to the musical phenomenon, Hamilton. We tried not to sing too much. But there is a little singing. We ask the big questions: Listen to...

Indoorswomen - Episode 23 - TV Shows That Ended Too Soon (that aren't Firefly)

October 13, 2016 11:00 - 52 minutes - 48.2 MB

In a perfect world, the tenure of a television show would solely depend on how much we love it and its potential for greatness. Unfortunately network bigwigs, scheduling gaffes, actors’ whims, and crappy pilots often get in the way. In honor of shows underappreciated in their time, our topic today is TV shows that ended too soon (that aren't Firefly). Since we talk about firefly a lot, we thought we would exclude it from this discussion. Today, we lament the cancellation of Better Off Ted,...
