    Woah. You guys. This episode is extra super special. I am joined by a teen. While our cultural references may differ, we both discovered the movie Clueless around the same age (though I'm pretty sure Nakalia never had it on VHS, like I did.) PLUS, get the scoop on the latest in fashion. Seriously, there's a lot of fashion talk in this one and it's super interesting. Enjoy! Follow the show on Twitter!

    Sorry for the skipped weeks, friends. Sometimes there's just too much life stuff going on. But, I'm back with a bang, and by bang I mean extra fun long episode with my very thoughtful and entertaining friend Andy, who knows and loves this movie so well that he could recite it all from memory. Join us as we get into the goofs and gags of this bonkers movie. Do you think a movie made in the 90's that centers around a fat camp is going to hold up in today's body-positive culture? Are summer camps problematic in the way they deal with Native American culture? Is Ben Stiller kind of a babe? Listen and find out. Andy writes here. Follow the show on Twitter!

    This episode is proooobbbbabbbly going to be more fun if you're pretty familiar with the movie. Molly and I tried out something folks have been suggesting I do for a long time, which is to record while we're watching the movie. You won't be able to watch along with us, because I cut down the two hour movie to a one-ish hour collection of all of the fun parts. I hope you enjoy the episode as much as Molly and I enjoyed watching Fantasia. Turns out that movie is dope as hell. Fantasia (Wikipedia) Follow the show on Twitter!

    What better time to discuss a movie that has dubious ideas about sexuality and consent than in #MeToo focused 2018? This episode gets real real. Also, you're going to hear a lot of disgusted sighs from me.

    Are you ready for another episode with a lot of singing? Good, because this is one. And it's not just songs from Newsies. This episode is a doozie (a newsiedoozie?) for folks who like musicals. I think we reference probably 10 non-Newsies musicals, at least. Drew is a bonafide Newsies expert, and no slouch on American history either, and I'm glad she agreed to record this episode with me, even though it was very late at night and you can hear us getting progressively sleepier as the episode goes on. Oh, and The dance move the name of which has eluded me since Phantom is, in fact, a barrel kick. I looked it up. Here's (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GP90LPQ-DO4) someone named Nick doing a whole bunch of good ones. Thanks, Nick! Oh, and somehow Drew thought it was totally obvious that Paul Dano is a celebrity that I would have a crush on. I'm still working out what that says about me. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/fundippod/message

    This week, Jennie joins me to watch the beautiful bummer of a movie, The Virgin Suicides. We get very confused about how similar all the teen movies were around this time, so sorry in advance for all the yelling at your radio that you're about to do. Also, if you ever wanted to know how many people I had smooched by the time I was like, 13, this episode is for you! Note: This episode has some random spoilers for Ingrid Goes West and Mustang. Consider yourself warned. Also, we recorded this episode a while ago, and when I was listening back and my little purring cat came in and made a noise, I teared up a little bit, because she hasn't come out to live with me in California yet and I miss her a lot.

    Hi everyone. This is my Halloween episode. It's a big one, because it has three beloved guests. But, that also means it gets a little raucous and sounds a little rough at times. Fair warning. Join Scott, Katie, Aaron, and I as we get into one of Katie's Halloween favorites, Hocus Pocus. Somehow none of the rest of us had ever seen this movie. This episode also brings you a fun Kira and Scott Baseball Minute (tm, tm, tm). It's very fun.

    This week, we cover a super timely and relevant issue by watching a movie that takes place in 1863. Were you enjoying the podcast but worried that you weren't learning enough? WELL. Worry no more: this episode will teach you LOADS about the Civil War. It's still a lot of fun though. Join me and Civil War re-enactor / living historian Aaron as we dig deep into the 1993 war drama Gettysburg. We discuss the historical inaccuracies, and dig into how this movie has helped perpetuate the Lost Cause narrative of the Confederate defeat.

    Third episode! Woooo! This episode has 200% more dogs than past episodes. They make noise sometimes. I'm sorry, but that's just something you're going to need to be okay with. Also, there's 1000% more singing than past episodes, and probably 70% more singing than is necessary. Enjoy the sing-along! Join me and Katie as we talk about our favorite album of 1999, Millennium by Backstreet Boys. This album is most filler, some killer. Also, turns out that a lot of the songs on this album are really easy to confuse with *NSYNC songs. Oops.
