Our truest fans will forget, however momentarily, that the title of this episode came from the "Selfie" season and series finale.

Nobody lik…

It's 2019 and gym membership numbers are at an all-time high! What better way to motivate yourself to hit the gym than to set a goal for yourself?

"Selfie" was a sitcom that aired in the Year of our Lord 2014, and was categorized as a "romantic comedy". This episode of this podcast is about a certain episode of that series, but is more accurately about romcoms as a film genre.As Julia(?) would say, "But seriously, folks," there's some excellent discussion here that springboards out of the ide…

Imagine visiting your local karaoke bar, except instead of queuing up Seal's "Kiss From a Rose" instead it's the tenth episode of "Selfie", a sitcom that was here today (at some point in 2014) and gone tomorrow (at another, later point in 2014). That's what Beth and Evan did!That intrepid duo then got to recapping that episode for your listening pl…

How ironic would it be if on the commentary for an episode called "Follow Through" the co-hosts of this podcast inadvertently took a break for one of their birthdays (as a cover for technical difficulties causing the episode not to be posted online as intended)?

"I don't know why I'm having trouble committing to something that sounds so good."

"Hi, I'm Rod, and I like to party," is a line from a very funny movie. It's also what Eliza would say, if one of her nicknames was Rod. Eliza loves to party, and Henry? Henry. . . not so much.

This week Beth and Evan discuss the merits and relative value of Henry's girlfriend, the jewels of Julia, if you will. As it turns out, Allison Miller could have contributed a lot more to the show.
