Watchover with Jen and Calli and Maddie

Watchover Ep 33 - Looking to the Future

March 15, 2019 21:52 - 1 hour - 101 MB

There's been oodles of speculation about Arrow's future and the future beyond Arrow... will there be a spin off? What does this mean for Arrow's finale? Will Oliver die? What will Watchover become after the show is done? All good questions. And we mostly stay on topic while discussing it. Until we don't.

Watchover Ep 32 - Arrow 7x15 Discussion

March 12, 2019 04:14 - 1 hour - 81.6 MB

Holy frak! What an episode that was! We were not expecting "Training Day" to be one of the strongest eps of the season but here we are. And to make it even better, we were left with the most tantalizing promo for the next episode to come along since the 3x20 first dropped. So we have a lot to say and very little of it will make sense. But we do it with passion!

Watchover Ep 31 - Arrow Therapy Session

March 07, 2019 21:14 - 50 minutes - 46.4 MB

We continue our discussion from yesterday, about the ending of Arrow, what it means going forward, what we should worry about and what isn't worth our time. We'll get through this together, fanmily!

Watchover Ep 30 - The Beginning of the End

March 07, 2019 04:06 - 45 minutes - 41.7 MB

Stephen Amell shared some huge and somewhat devastating news with fans today: Arrow would be ending after 10 episodes in season 8. That means we're looking down the last 18 episodes of the whole show and Jen and Calli have some thoughts about it. This is part one of a two part podcast episode, including our rawest emotions and reactions to this news.

Watchover Ep 29 - Arrow 7x14 Discussion

March 05, 2019 20:33 - 1 hour - 91.9 MB

The episode was all about brothers and sisters but the take-away is that these flashforwards are a MAJOR bummer. What's the story with Oliver and Felicity and their poor family?? For people who don't care to guess, we sure do a lot of guessing! Also: Oscar Fashion. It's a week late, but when Maddie is joining us, it's never a bad time to talk sequins on the red carpet!

Watchover Ep 28 - Shippers Gonna Ship

February 26, 2019 03:26 - 1 hour - 82 MB

This episode tackles the topic of shipping... and the horrible practice of judging shippers. We even discuss the somewhat taboo topic of shipping real life people together. There's a lot of hypocrisy out there when it comes to shipping and when people disagree, things tend to get personal and sensitive. This one might get a little controversial, be forewarned! But as always, we have a good time. Isn't that the most important thing?

Watchover Ep 27 - The Importance of Felicity Smoak

February 23, 2019 02:18 - 1 hour - 87.2 MB

How important is Felicity Smoak to Arrow? From fans perspective, the show's perspective, the writers perspective, etc? The answer is VERY! That said, for an episode about Felicity Smoak we do spend a lot of time talking about Canaries. It'll all make sense why when you listen, we promise!

Watchover Ep 26 - Battle of the Sex Scenes

February 20, 2019 03:40 - 2 hours - 154 MB

While Arrow has never actually had a love triangle between Oliver, Felicity and Laurel, it's safe to say their fans don't acknowledge that. In this installment, we discuss the ins and outs (pun!) of the Lauriver love scene from 1x22 and the first Olicity love scene in 3x20. How were these two scenes different? And why do those differences matter (and believe us, THEY DO)?

Watchover Ep 25 - Haters Gonna Hate (Also: CHRIS)

February 14, 2019 21:56 - 2 hours - 113 MB

Happy Valentine's Day, listeners! We are sending all of you big mushy pink hearts filled with the best chocolate. And we're also giving you an ep where we rant about the haters, defend the choices of women to be or not to be mothers, and argue about which Chris is the best. How did we get from haters to Chris'? You'll have to listen to find out.

Watchover Ep 24 - Arrow 7x13 Discussion

February 12, 2019 14:56 - 1 hour - 78.4 MB

Arrow's longstanding episode 13 curse is broken! At least for this season. 7x13 delivered us an amazing episode, start to fantastic finish and so many of Jen and Calli's predictions came true that they feel a little lightheaded. Someone got a glass of wine we can revive them with? #OLICITYBABY

Watchover Ep 23 - The Problem with Mia

February 09, 2019 00:09 - 1 hour - 78 MB

Just who is Blackstar? Maya? Mia? Jen and Calli dive deep into the parentage possibilities and, no surprise to anyone, determine there's only really one VIABLE answer. Doesn't mean Arrow might not try to pass off some other alternative but when it comes to the story that makes the most sense, Mia has to be an Olicity baby!

Watchover Ep 22 - Arrow is a Problematic Hot Mess

February 07, 2019 18:17 - 2 hours - 126 MB

In this episode, Jen and Calli dive in to the problems with Arrow as a whole... and how those problems have been around since the very beginning. How does a fan reconcile themselves with the problems in a show they love? Can they? *Should* they? All good questions.

Watchover Ep 21 - Arrow 7x12 Discussion

February 05, 2019 20:17 - 2 hours - 118 MB

It's the big Arrow 150th episode, "Emerald Archer". Was it a love letter to fans? Did the milestone episode miss the target or was it a bullseye? And why do Jen and Calli often differ from average fandom reaction when it comes to episodes like this? Listen in and see what they have to say.

Watchover Ep 20 - Arrow 7x11 Discussion

January 29, 2019 20:03 - 2 hours - 126 MB

Jen and Calli spend the 20th episode of their podcast discussing last night's Arrow. What worked, what didn't, when will Curtis die? Is Oliver Jesus? And more. A lot more. They had a lot to say, apparently.

Watchover Ep 19 - More Fashion Hijinks with PeggiLi

January 27, 2019 03:54 - 1 hour - 98.9 MB

The podcast has a very special guest, jewelry designer PeggiLi! Her creations have shown up in multiple television shows and movies, including, yep you guessed it, ARROW! Felicity Smoak herself has worn many earrings and necklaces crafted by Peggy herself and we got an exclusive with her to discuss how she got her start in the business, what drew her to Arrow, and what her opinions on season 7 storylines is.

Watchover Ep 18 - Arrow 7x10 Discussion

January 22, 2019 20:04 - 1 hour - 85.3 MB

After winter hiatus, the show is finally back but it's a somewhat underwhelming return, featuring the story of Oliver's long-lost sister, Emiko. But it's not all bad. No seriously! It's not! Also: never argue with haters. Don't be like Jen.

Watchover Ep 17 - Ranty Edition

January 17, 2019 20:52 - 1 hour - 108 MB

In our last winter hiatus podcast, we take the opportunity to rant about some things that pertain to the show and fandom. Ranting is good for you! It releases tension! So join us as we vent our frustrations. We also answer some questions from listeners and, you guessed it, have a pretty good time.

Watchover Extras - Olicity Nostalgia

January 15, 2019 21:14 - 2 hours - 130 MB

With one week left to go in Arrow's winter hiatus, Jen and Calli discuss some of their favorite Olicity scenes from episodes past. Also: see what the girls think will come in 7b and our top tips for attending fan conventions. It gets real, y'all.

Watchover Extras - The Fashion Police Episode

January 08, 2019 19:32 - 1 hour - 89.1 MB

The podcast gets shaken up when a guest, @LipstickandWifi, joins us to talk... FASHION! It's awards season and there's a lot of Golden Globes red carpet fashion to discuss and the girls also chat about their favorite Felicity Smoak looks throughout the seasons. Join us, it's a hoot!

Watchover Extras - The Holiday Hangover Episode

January 04, 2019 21:44 - 1 hour - 91.4 MB

After a bit of a break over the holidays, Jen and Calli return to the podcast to answer some questions to their Twitter and discuss, well, whatever comes to mind. Of particular interest: s7 storylines and whether Arrow will end with season 8 or not.

Watchover Extras - The Christmas Edition

December 24, 2018 00:56 - 2 hours - 133 MB

Amidst all the holiday hustle and bustle, Jen and Calli set aside some time to talk.... about a LOT of stuff. This is our longest episode yet, discussing everything from holiday preparation to the stickier moments in Olicity's relationship to what are the best shows to binge and ships to ship. WHEW! Listening to this one will give you something to keep you busy while wrapping presents!

Watchover Extras - The Origins of Olicity

December 19, 2018 03:15 - 1 hour - 77.6 MB

Now that we're fully in the dreaded winter hiatus, we have a little more freedom to talk about more than just what's going on each week on Arrow. In this episode, we talk about the origins of Olicity, namely season 1 and 2, but with some chatter of later moments. Join us!

Watchover Extras - Oliver's Heroism

December 14, 2018 02:47 - 1 hour - 99.8 MB

Apparently, the girls aren't done talking about the DCTV crossover yet! They talk specifically about Oliver, about his heroism, about why he's being vilified and how there's actually a story reason for it... and it's very biblical.

Watchover Extras - Crossover Hijinks Pt. 3

December 12, 2018 04:50 - 1 hour - 99.5 MB

Well. THAT took a turn! But Jen and Calli muddle through the muck and grime and actually come to a fairly reasonable explanation and outcome for WHAT THE HECK IS HAPPENING TO OLIVER QUEEN. Don't miss it.

Watchover Episode 5 - Crossover Hijinks Pt. 2

December 11, 2018 05:07 - 1 hour - 99.1 MB

The reactions for the second night of the Elseworlds crossover (Arrow based, of course) are much different than those for the first night! And for very good reason! Jen and Calli have a lot to talk about now that Olicity are back on solid ground again.

Watchover Extras - Crossover Hijinks Pt. 1

December 10, 2018 04:41 - 1 hour - 94.3 MB

The first episode of the Elseworld's crossover event has aired and Jen has Some Thoughts. Calli is amused. Questions from listeners are answered and ranting happens and fun is had.

Watchover Episode 4 - Arrow 7x08 Reactions

December 04, 2018 23:37 - 1 hour - 68.6 MB

Another highly anticipated episode and another instance of some disappointed reactions. Jen & Calli process through their thoughts and get down to what they didn't (and what they did) like about the episode.

December 03, 2018 03:46 - 1 hour - 79.4 MB

If there is one character who hasn't gotten their due on Arrow, it's John Diggle. Jen and Calli have high hopes that he'll finally get the story he deserves. Also: discussions include the upcoming new Arrow episode, Game of Thrones and The Haunting of Hill House!
