Welcome yuckers and yummers! In this podcast, my wife and I watch or read something that the other has a fondness for. Then we have an in depth discussion on whether the significant other either liked it or hated, and whether they’ll yuck it or yum it. We’ll watch anything from Se7en to the Greatest Showman, or reading anything from Watchmen to Twilight. If you love pop culture in general and just want to hear a newly married couple either make it or break it by tarnishing the things they hold dear, or enjoying them, this pod is for you.
Carlito and Courtney Gilchrist
We're back! Baby! Oh my goodness gracious and a sack of potatoes. We're back to never discuss Spider-Man again! (Unless you want it). No. We're discussing Courtney's pick, 9 to 5! A pro woman in the work place wacky film starring the great gems of Lily Tomlin, Jane Fonda, and Dolly Parton! Get ready for this! Because you're not!
The time has come! It's all been leading to this! Was it worth spending hours rewatching all the greatest Spider moments and not so great ones?! Also we rank all the films in our opinion from worst to best! Thanks for listening! And have a Spidey-tastic Christmas!
Oh boy! It's the boy Spider-Boy movies! Tommy Boy Holland coming in hot to deliver the new Spider-Man again after only two years of Andrew Garfield! With the third legacy of Spider-Man, how does this create one of its own?
On this one we talk about what might be both the best Spider-Man movie, and the worst! We dive deep into the unbearable nature which is Sony's grubby fingers in our favorite wall-crawlers mythos. Yet somehow did Spider-Verse redeem them?
We continue our delve into ALL the Spider-Man films as we edge closer to Spider-Man No Way All The Spider-Men Are Coming Home! This was an interesting episode considering we were tired and recorded late and had the giggles at many points. We finish up Tobey Macguire's time as the wall crawler and jump to Andrew Garfield, who by all accounts, did an excellent job.
Woo! This was exhausting! Been a while since we've done a regular old episode! This episode we discuss Blade Runner and Blade Runner 2049: Electric Sheep Boogaloo. The films follow special police known as Blade Runners, whose primary job is to “retire” illegal replicants on Earth. Cult classics made from interesting ideas and weird and wild executions! Did the wife yuck or yum it?!
It's Spider-Man time for all the Spider-Man coming your way! All the Spider-Men possibly in the next Spider-Man, so we thought we'd watch ALL THE SPIDER-MEN and talk about it! This crossover series will have us talking about all the web head films from 2002 to now! We start with the best of the best, then the not so best, then better?…
It's enchanting every once in a while to watch a lovely classical love story, and Somewhere in Time delivers that. At the height of Christopher Reeve's Superman fever, the gentle and kind actor started in this nearly forgotten film, except by those who loved it when it came out. Full disclosure, we were holding back tears talking about it and Christopher Reeve. How can you not? Did I yuck it or yum it? What do you think?
When the world was on lockdown, one man, Christopher the Nolan, refused to let his film go to streaming. And then no one understood it and didn't go see it. Was it as confusing as we thought? John David Washington plays a secret spy operative who is thrusted into the organization known only as Tenet, and the soul mission, to stop the destruction of all existence. And it was definitely better the second time around.
Yes, we're cultured! We'll do films not made by the American Hollywood Machine! And we did! Valentin Bravo's bachelor life is suddenly uprooted when a past fling drops a baby on his doorstep claiming it's his, then buffers off! This was the wife's pick so did I yuck it or yum it? (Also we recorded this a month ago and have neglected to release it. But we're back baby!)
We gotta talk about great things ever now and again. Who doesn't love these two masterpieces. Lin-Manuel Miranda kills it and we gush about it!
It's the Batman story of Batman stories. Everything after has been defined by this tale alone. A comic classic that is considered a magnus opus of superhero stories! Did the wife like it?
Our friend Trevor gave us a monumental list of films to watch, so we’ll be working through that in the coming weeks. First up was Courtney’s pick, Your Name. Our special guest, her brother Jalen loves this one so we decided to hear what he had to say on it! Did I yuck or yum it?
It’s the gangster film of gangster films. Sit back and have your favorite Italian dish as we discuss the Scorsese classic. Did the wife enjoy it?
It’s the timeless movie based off the timeless tale. I’ve never seen it so the wife strapped me to the sofa and forced me to watch it Clockwork Orange style. But I still enjoyed it.
We’re still on the Patrick Swayze team! It’s where the rocky relationship of Swayze and Jennifer Grey came from! Did the wife like this one? Find out!
What?! We didn’t like this classic Hollywood melodramatic hogwash of a film?! That’s right. We have our own opinions. But you have yours too! So that’s okay. James Dean is good though.
We have our first guest ever! Shannon, aka Shawty, joins us as we gush about the first (and the only good) installment in the Disney’s Pirates franchise! We laugh, we cry, we juggle many subjects as always. Listen in!
Taika Waititi never ceases to fail, even in the early days of his filmmaking. This week we watched his personal project of BOY, the story of a boy in New Zealand whose just trying to know his dad. Will the wife like it? She better.
In this episode the wife showed me another reason to love Patrick Swayze. I think it’s pretty obvious if I’ll yuck or yum it, but I haven’t seen it, so who knows?! Oh, we watched Dirty Dancing, yeah, that one, good one.
It’s as good as everyone is saying. In our first Yumathon we not only talk about Snyder League, but we compare it to Josstice League! Boy what a difference. Sorry this is long, there was a lot to cover. Enjoy! Love you!
How many good things can you say about Audrey Hepburn? I hope we covered it all in this episode where the wife had me watch Audrey’s first leading star role in a film, as well as the Netflix documentary “Audrey”. We touch upon the charm and the tragedy that was bestowed upon Audrey, and what made her such a gem.
Muscles, mayhem, masculinity, monsters. It’s everything a 10 year boy wants in a film and needed to share with his wife 17 years later! Did she love it as much as him?! Listen and learn!
This week the wife had me watch In Your Eyes. A 2014 romantic comedy written by Joss Whedon and directed by Brian Hill. It was totally fine.
WITH THE NEW JUSTICE LEAGUE ON THE WAY WE REVIEWED ITS PREDECESSOR! Well this went off the rails a bit... Since I realized during the watching of this movie that I didn’t really enjoy it either, we decided to start a new segment of the show where we both rip on a movie we equally dislike!
Surprise, surprise, the wife made me watch some gushy romance movie... Actually that was only 10 percent of the whole thing. Patrick Swayze is a gem though, so, this may be a shoe in... Enjoy! --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app
This week the wife watched the NWA biopic without much knowledge of the gangster rap group... but what was the outcome? You may be surprised. YES YOU. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app
In light of the passing of Christopher Plummer, the wife thought honoring him with us talking about one of his greatest roles (even if he didn’t think so) would be a great ode to the amazing actor. Does it still hold up? We’ll see... --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app
I think Stanley Kubrick is sexist. But what are you going to do? The wifey watched Dr. Strangelove, and as a critic of the time when a Kubrick movie came out, she thought something about it... --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app
Courtney made me watch a cartoon! But not really, but kind of. It’s complicated. Like all things. Like life. Mr. Fox has a simple life and then he complicates it. Ugh! --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app
Well, this surely wasn’t our Magnus Opus, but the film we watched is definitely one. Ol’Courty Court watched Fury Road. Are we going to get a different reaction for this one....? --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app
This week my wife made me watch some girly movie about a girl. But I liked it, go figure. I usually only like manly movies about manly men, but this was tolerable. Actually it was really good.

I made my wife watch The Godfather. I think it went well? She hasn’t divorced me yet, so that’s a good sign. Anyways hope you all enjoy this early addition to the show. We’ll be back in a couple weeks to bring you all more content of my wife and I throwing our opinions at each other. Let us know what you want us to do for episode 200. Or not, I don’t care.

In our inaugural episode of the show, we discuss my wife’s favorite film of 2017, Hugh Jackman’s Greatest Showman starring Hugh Jackman. By the end we’ll decide if this is a film I yum or yuck and see if it makes or brakes our marriage. Probably not. I’ll be adding an extra recording at the end for our handles that we still have to make. And at the 15 minute mark we had to switch from recording on my Yeti mike to my phone because my laptop is a piece of poo. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app
